THE CITY council’s decision to alter<br />
wording on thousands of property<br />
reports affected by coastal hazards has<br />
been described as a “gutless” move.<br />
Christchurch Coastal Residents United<br />
spokesman Dr Darrell Latham is reeling<br />
after the city council tweaked unreliable<br />
coastal hazard information listed on<br />
Land Information Memorandum for<br />
homes in Christchurch and Banks Peninsula.<br />
The city council altered the details put<br />
on LIMs on Monday after a review of the<br />
original Coastal Hazards Assessment Report<br />
found more scientific work needed<br />
to be done.<br />
Dr Darrell Latham said in spite of altering<br />
the report, the information showing<br />
properties are at risk from coastal<br />
hazards has been left on LIMs.<br />
He said the city council is “gutless” for<br />
only tweaking the wording.<br />
“The information needs to be correct<br />
and the peer review from the coastal<br />
experts is the best available information.<br />
The council needs to listen to the recommendations<br />
and remove it from LIMs<br />
because it’s legally unsound,” he said.<br />
The original Tonkin & Taylor report<br />
found numerous houses in the area are at<br />
risk of coastal erosion and flooding and<br />
that information has gone on affected<br />
homeowners’ LIM reports.<br />
The review panel urged the city<br />
council to remove it and undertake more<br />
research because the maps identifying atrisk<br />
properties could be legally unsound.<br />

Lifesavers without clubrooms<br />
Quake damage<br />
forces<br />
temporary<br />
closure<br />
• By Annabelle Dick<br />
TAYLORS MISTAKE Surf<br />
Lifesaving’s clubrooms will<br />
be closed for at least two years<br />
because of earthquake damage.<br />
At structural engineer report<br />
has found the building was<br />
unsafe after it sustained damage<br />
on the Valentine’s Day<br />
earthquake earlier<br />
this year.<br />
Club president<br />
Tisha Bradley<br />
(left) said after the<br />
quake they had<br />
engineers in to<br />
check the building’s structure.<br />
“There was a lot of movement<br />
in the building while we were<br />
over there on patrol and subsequently<br />
they came back and<br />
said the building is earthquake<br />
prone,”<br />
As a result, the clubhouse has<br />
been closed until further notice<br />
to the more than 200 club<br />
members.<br />
“I envisage it’ll be for at least<br />
DAMAGED: Taylors Mistake Surf Lifesaving Club will be closed because structural<br />
engineers have deemed the building unsafe.<br />
PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN<br />
two to three years,” Ms Bradley<br />
said.<br />
The surf lifesaving club has a<br />
contingency plan in place and<br />
intend to practice out of two<br />
freight containers.<br />
“One will act as a patrol<br />
room and the other will be a<br />
first aid lounge area so we’ll<br />
have to use public facilities<br />
like public toilets and showers.<br />
We’ll be in a similar position<br />
that Sumner was,” she said.<br />
The club was already in the<br />
middle of settling insurance<br />
claims after receiving quake<br />
damage and now members will<br />
have to discuss with insurers<br />
what the fate of the building<br />
will be.<br />
“Hopefully, our discussions<br />
with our insurer come to an<br />
end sooner rather than later<br />
and then we can go from there<br />
on how we’ll continue,” Ms<br />
Bradley said.<br />
The club will either be repaired<br />
or rebuilt.<br />
“We’d like to do something<br />
as dramatic and gorgeous as<br />
Sumner Surf Lifesaving Club<br />
but it depends on what we<br />
get through insurance,” she<br />
said.<br />
The Taylors Mistake Surf<br />
Lifesaving Club is awaiting<br />
consent from the city council<br />
and park rangers to put two<br />
containers in temporarily.<br />
In Brief<br />
BERTH TESTS<br />
Lyttelton Port is constructing a<br />
new oil and gas berth to replace<br />
the existing earthquake-damaged<br />
docking site. LPC has started<br />
testing from a floating barge to<br />
understand the seabed to ensure<br />
an appropriate dredging operation<br />
can be conducted. The berth will<br />
be redeveloped slightly north from<br />
its existing position and LPC will<br />
provide further updates as the<br />
project continues.<br />
SPEED LIMIT CHANGE<br />
The speed limit on Mt Pleasant Rd<br />
has changed after a motion from<br />
the Hagley/Ferrymead Community<br />
Board was passed. The board<br />
decided to extend the 50km/h<br />
speed limit an extra 450m south on<br />
Mt Pleasant Rd to just past Upper<br />
Major Hornbrook Rd. The 70km/h<br />
speed limit will begin from Upper<br />
Major Hornbrook Rd to Summit<br />
Rd. It came into force on August 31.<br />
FOOTPATH OBSTRUCTION<br />
To resolve issues raised from<br />
residents, the city council has put a<br />
management plan in place to fix an<br />
ongoing obstruction on Oxford St.<br />
Repairs to a building on 16 Oxford<br />
St have taken over the surrounding<br />
footpath for almost two years.<br />
Fences were installed to block off<br />
the works but that has taken over<br />
most of the pathway as well limiting<br />
access.<br />

Volunteers<br />
needed to<br />
curb crime<br />
• By Annabelle Dick<br />
THE COMMUNITY Patrol City<br />
to Sumner is seeking volunteers to<br />
help in decreasing the amount of<br />
burglaries and thefts in Lyttelton.<br />
A spate of burglaries in the area<br />
has seen the number increase and<br />
community members have shared<br />
concerns about the multiple commercial<br />
and residential burglaries<br />
and thefts in the past month.<br />
The Lyttelton-Mt Herbert Community<br />
Board has recommended<br />
people get involved with the patrol<br />
to help deter crime.<br />
The Community Patrol City to<br />
Sumner, which patrols Lyttelton, is<br />
seeking additional volunteer drivers<br />
and interested residents can<br />
phone the Lyttelton Police Station<br />
on 378 0200. The board also said<br />
all residents need to report burglaries<br />
on 363 7400 so that more<br />
police resources could be put into<br />
Lyttelton if warranted.<br />
The board is investigating installing<br />
a moveable camera in hot<br />
spots around Lyttelton to deter and<br />
monitor crime.<br />
The board has also requested<br />
that city council staff investigate<br />
options for Crime Prevention<br />
through Environmental Design on<br />
London St, Lyttelton.<br />

Peninsula spending up<br />
• By Annabelle Dick<br />
MORE MONEY is being spent<br />
in Banks Peninsula as new<br />
statistics show retail spending<br />
has increased.<br />
The June <strong>2016</strong> Christchurch<br />
Retail report shows that<br />
$48,622,680 million was spent<br />
in the retail sector in Banks<br />
Peninsula between June 2015<br />
and June <strong>2016</strong>.<br />
That’s 15.4 per cent more than<br />
the previous year’s figure of<br />
about $42.1 million.<br />
Retail spending has increased<br />
in spite of four less cruise ship<br />
visits in Akaroa and a two per<br />
cent drop in the growth rate<br />
of passenger numbers over the<br />
year to June <strong>2016</strong>.<br />
Peninsula General Store<br />
owner Ken Marshall said he’s<br />
seen a big jump in the amount<br />
that people spend when they<br />
visit Akaroa.<br />
“Over summer it was a lot<br />
busier so I can understand why<br />
the figures are up,” he said.<br />
The report states that the<br />
spending may reflect either an<br />
increased spend per passenger<br />
or more domestic tourism.<br />
“I think there’s more people<br />
coming over from Christchurch.<br />
Either they’re Christchurch<br />
people or people landing<br />
CASHFLOW: More money is circulating around Banks<br />
Peninsula’s economy<br />
in Christchurch. We’re definitely<br />
seeing an increase in that<br />
sort of tourism,” Mr Marshall<br />
said.<br />
Christchurch<br />
& Canterbury<br />
Tourism chief<br />
executive Vic<br />
Allen (left)<br />
said he thinks<br />
there’s a<br />
number of reasons why Banks<br />
Peninsula spending has risen.<br />
“New Zealand is in the middle<br />
of a tourism boom and more<br />
specifically Christchurch airport<br />
has seen passenger numbers<br />
grow, particularly from<br />
China. We know the Chinese<br />
like visiting places like Akaroa<br />
and Banks Peninsula so I think<br />
that’s part of it,” he said.<br />
“Also the domestic Christchurch<br />
market is going to Akaroa<br />
as the weather has been good<br />
for holidaying. Lyttelton is<br />
Couples<br />
Getaway<br />
also starting to make a name<br />
for itself with their cafes and<br />
restaurants so I think it’s a combination<br />
of all those things.”<br />
Mr Allen believes the growth<br />
in spending is a trend that’s going<br />
to continue.<br />
“Banks Peninsula has a lot of<br />
potential to become even more<br />
popular and appealing as a<br />
destination and we know that<br />
Christchurch residents love going<br />
there as do overseas visitors<br />
as well,” Mr Allen said.<br />
International cardholder<br />
spending has increased by 12.4<br />
per cent in Christchurch which<br />
is slightly above the national<br />
increase of 11.4 per cent.<br />

Kindergarten battle not over<br />
• By Annabelle Dick<br />
A NUMBER of McCormacks<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> Rd homeowners are happy a<br />
kindergarten was denied resource<br />
consent<br />
YOUR<br />
to build opposite them,<br />
but the battle isn’t<br />
GIFT GIFT<br />
over yet.<br />
Kidsfirst applied for resource<br />
consent to run a 50-person early<br />
childhood centre next to the Mt<br />
Pleasant Community Centre but<br />
were declined due to a city council<br />
mistake.<br />
A property on the street was<br />
meant to notified about the application<br />
but initially it wasn’t<br />
65 WHEN OR MORE YOU ON SPEND REVLON $65 * OR MORE ON REVLON *<br />
seen as a property affected by<br />
the centre, so Kidsfirst have<br />
resubmitted their application.<br />
McCormacks <strong>Bay</strong> residents<br />
Suzanne Sullivan, Graham<br />
Keats and Margaret Evrard all<br />
opposed the application as the<br />
building would have a significant<br />
affect on their view of the<br />
estuary.<br />
“It’s such a joy to be here.<br />
This is our investment and our<br />
VALUED<br />
OVER<br />
home for all three of us these<br />
were meant to be our retirement<br />
homes and we’ve been looking<br />
forward to enjoying this view,”<br />
Ms Sullivan said.<br />

was damaged in the February<br />
22, 2011, earthquake and will<br />
sit 26m west of their former<br />
site.<br />
The centre will run longer<br />
from 8am to 5pm with an<br />
estimated 200 vehicles expected<br />
to move in and out of McCormacks<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> Rd.<br />
The homeowners said the<br />
narrow strip is a very dangerous<br />
place for a kindergarten as<br />
Main Rd is only metres away<br />
and McCormacks <strong>Bay</strong> Rd is<br />
notoriously unsafe as it has a<br />
blind corner.<br />
“While the community centre<br />
was being rebuilt there was three<br />
accidents – one of them had<br />
their door cleaned right off its<br />
hinges,” Mr Keats said.<br />
“It’s really bad from a safety<br />
aspect as kids are going to be<br />
loaded and unloaded during the<br />
peak times for traffic.”<br />
The residents proposed the<br />
move the centre closer to the<br />
community centre or to the<br />
other side of the centre where<br />
there’s more space and no blind<br />
corners.<br />
The commissioner said the<br />
resource consent was declined<br />
purely due to the notification<br />
process and not on the proposal<br />
itself.<br />
Kidsfirst has reapplied for a<br />
resource consent and the hearing<br />
has been set for October.<br />
Coastal hazard<br />
report concerns<br />
•From page 1<br />
City council chief executive<br />
Dr Karleen Edwards decided to<br />
change the coastal hazard wording<br />
on the LIMs of the 18,000<br />
properties identified as being<br />
vulnerable to coastal hazards.<br />
However, the update will still<br />
state houses are at risk from<br />
coastal hazards but it won’t be<br />
specific about the extent of the<br />
risk and whether the risk comes<br />
from erosion or flooding.<br />
Dr Latham said Christchurch<br />
Coastal Residents United plan<br />
on fighting it and pursuing legal<br />
action if the information is not<br />
removed.<br />
“We will not shy away. We’ve<br />
carried this issue right through<br />
to this stage. We challenged the<br />
original report, we put the council<br />
under pressure and they decided<br />
to review that report. That review<br />
has suggested the council remove<br />
the current coastal hazard mapping<br />
off the LIMs until more<br />
rigorous research can be done,”<br />
he said.<br />
The report focused on areas of<br />
urban development and assessed<br />
Brooklands, Avon-Heathcote<br />
Estuary, Sumner and Taylors Mistake,<br />

Wednesday <strong>September</strong> 7 <strong>2016</strong><br />
Our People<br />
Author unearths the history of<br />
Governors <strong>Bay</strong>’s Jane Robertson is documenting<br />
the long history of the head of the harbour in a new<br />
book which is about to be released. Our reporter<br />
Annabelle Dick spoke to her about quitting her<br />
job to dedicate her hours to the time-consuming<br />
publication, the surprises she uncovered and how<br />
the peninsula kept dragging her back.<br />
Your book Head of the <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
is about to be released, can you<br />
tell me about it?<br />
It’s a history of the area from<br />
Teddington around to Governors<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> – so Teddington, Allandale<br />
Ohinetahi, Governors <strong>Bay</strong> and<br />
Sandy <strong>Bay</strong>. It’s really a history<br />
starting with the formation of<br />
the landscape and the volcanoes<br />
in Lyttelton and Akaroa. It looks<br />
at the land, the fauna and flora<br />
and then it comes forward and<br />
looks at Maori history and the<br />
Maori settlement at Ohinetahi.<br />
Then there’s the European<br />
settlement and it goes from<br />
there. It’s being launched at the<br />
beginning of December and it’s<br />
being published by David Bundy.<br />
Why did you decide to write<br />
the book?<br />
It started off as a little project,<br />
and I thought I’d interview<br />
some of the older residents in<br />
Governors <strong>Bay</strong> to get some<br />
record of their stories. It wasn’t<br />
going to be any more than that<br />
but talking to David Bundy he<br />
said someone should write a<br />
book on the head of the harbour<br />
and I thought I’d do it.<br />
How did you go about<br />
sourcing information?<br />
It took me five years worth of<br />
gathering to compile the book. I<br />
went on conducting interviews<br />
with local older people and I<br />
realised that to make sense of<br />
what they were talking about<br />
I needed to do some more<br />
research myself and better<br />
understand that ground. So I got<br />
into archival research using old<br />
newspapers, the museum library,<br />
resources that were available as<br />
well as unpublished materials.<br />
Another primary source was<br />
diaries and letters from local<br />
families.<br />
Was there any discoveries you<br />
made that surprised you?<br />
HOME: Jane Robertson considers Governors <strong>Bay</strong> her<br />
‘turangawaewae’ or the place where she stands in life.<br />
That’s a big one. A few things<br />
actually . . . well something I<br />
didn’t know was that there was<br />
a Maori pa on the side of Mt<br />
Bradley. Another thing that<br />
was a puzzle was to do with<br />
“Exclusive range<br />
of pottery,<br />
furniture,<br />
handcrafts,<br />
stoneware &<br />
gifts”<br />
the jetties around the harbour.<br />
One of the things that I learnt<br />
was that in Teddington in the<br />
1860s there was a 90m jetty<br />
that extended out into the mud<br />
flats and there’s still evidence<br />
of the jetty there but it was<br />
washed away in the 1868 tidal<br />
wave. There was a lot of activity<br />
going on up there and this was<br />
a major jetty and I found that<br />
really interesting. Also the fact<br />
that the Governors <strong>Bay</strong> jetty<br />
was on record as being built in<br />
1883 but it was actually built<br />
back in about 1874 and then it<br />
was extended twice because of<br />
the mud flats and because of the<br />
fact it kept silting up. Another<br />
thing that surprises me was one<br />
of the first arriving families,<br />
Samuel and Jean Manson, had<br />
17 children – here they were,<br />
they were pioneers and setting<br />
up their own farm and she was<br />
just having children one after<br />
another. They must have worked<br />
so hard. This also used to be an<br />
orchard and horticultural area –<br />
there were lots of plums, apricot<br />
trees, outdoor tomatoes and<br />
early potatoes. Almost<br />
all of that is gone now but<br />
it really defines the nature<br />
of Allandale, Ohinetahi and<br />
Governors <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />

BAY HARBOUR<br />
PAGE 7<br />
Banks Peninsula<br />
How far does the book go<br />
back?<br />
The Maori history goes<br />
well back but in terms of the<br />
European history, the first<br />
European’s to settle here were the<br />
Manson and the Gebbie family<br />
in Teddington and that was 1845<br />
so that was before the first four<br />
ships arrived in Lyttelton.<br />
How have residents reacted<br />
to it?<br />
I think there’s a lot of interest<br />
locally, the people I talk to have<br />
been wonderful and a number<br />
of them I’ve got back to and<br />
talked to several times and each<br />
time something new comes out<br />
like pictures, images, artefacts<br />
and stories. Some people have<br />
written family histories about<br />
the area and there are other<br />
publications available but there<br />
hasn’t been anything that’s<br />
covered the whole area and<br />
brought it all together. I think<br />
people are looking forward to<br />
having it documented in one<br />
place. Plus the book has a lot of<br />
photos and some of them are<br />
from museums, libraries and<br />
family collections that people<br />
haven’t seen before.<br />
What was the biggest<br />
challenge when putting the<br />
book together?<br />
There were several. One of<br />
the challenges was that I wasn’t<br />
getting any income – I was doing<br />
it part-time so you have to be<br />
pretty keen to stick to something<br />
on that basis. Another thing was<br />
the earthquake because when<br />
I started on it the libraries and<br />
the document research centre<br />
at the museum were closed so<br />
it was quite some time before I<br />
could access documents. Also for<br />
private people helping me, their<br />
material was disrupted from<br />
the earthquake as well and they<br />
couldn’t get to it.<br />
So are you an author by<br />
trade?<br />
This is the first book I’ve<br />
written. I’m a teacher and an<br />
academic by trade so I started<br />
out teaching and I lectured at<br />
the College of Education. I then<br />
went to Canterbury University<br />
where I worked in teacher<br />
education so I was lecturing staff.<br />
I resigned from that because I’d<br />
moved to Governors <strong>Bay</strong> and<br />
I wanted to spend more time<br />
being here. It was silly being in<br />
such a beautiful place and going<br />
over the hill five days a week and<br />
working in a concrete building. I<br />
resigned with no idea with what<br />
I was going to do and I set up an<br />
editing business and some time<br />
after that I started working on<br />
the book as it’s something I can<br />
do at home.<br />
How long have you been in<br />
Governors <strong>Bay</strong>?<br />
I moved to Governors <strong>Bay</strong> in<br />
2003 from Beckenham so just<br />
over the hill. It’s the sort of place<br />
that once you’re living here you<br />
don’t want to go back over the<br />
hill for anything and it’s really<br />
hard to imagine leaving this part<br />
of the world. Although it’s so<br />
close to Christchurch it’s like a<br />
different world.<br />
SNAPSHOT: Jane Robertson’s book covers the history of a<br />
number of jetties in the area including the Sandy <strong>Bay</strong> jetty.<br />
Postcard courtesy of Coral Atkinson and Murray Radcliffe.<br />
Why did you move there?<br />
Ever since I was younger I<br />
knew I wanted to come back<br />
to the harbour. When I was<br />
younger and lived in Opawa.<br />
My family and I used to catch<br />
the train to Lyttelton every<br />
Christmas and get the ferry to<br />
Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong>. Each year<br />
we’d rent a bach in either Church<br />
<strong>Bay</strong>, Charteris <strong>Bay</strong> or Diamond<br />
<strong>Harbour</strong> – well wherever we<br />
could find a bach really. For<br />
me my summers were defined<br />
by being in the harbour so I<br />
think that’s where my love of<br />
the area came from and that’s<br />
what drew me back as a middleaged<br />
adult. There’s something<br />
about the peninsula that really<br />
attaches people and I call it my<br />
turangawaewae, or the place I<br />
stand and get my strength from.<br />
This is my home.<br />
Do you live with your family<br />
in Governors <strong>Bay</strong>?<br />
I live with my partner, he’s a<br />
retired teacher of design. He’s a<br />
painter and at the moment he’s<br />
outside painting the view of the<br />
harbour from our deck.<br />
Outside of writing, what else<br />
sparks you interest?<br />
I like gardening, I also<br />
have 20 hens so I enjoy<br />
poultry I’ve always had chooks,<br />
I like walking, art is a big<br />
passion as well, theatre, reading<br />
– it’s all really tedious and<br />
predictable.<br />
So what’s your plan after the<br />
book is launched?<br />
I’m not going back into the<br />
workforce I don’t want to work<br />
for anybody else. Another<br />
book is a possibility, I wouldn’t<br />
discount it. I wouldn’t mind<br />
doing something like that.<br />

Councillor for Heathcote<br />
Hi Again – We have made good progress on<br />
local facilities lately, but there is more to strong<br />
communities than buildings.<br />
Some key changes I will work for are:<br />
• Earlier engagement and longer consultation time<br />
frames on any proposals.<br />
• Better support for community groups and volunteers.<br />
• A policy framework to support our local independent<br />
businesses.<br />
• Greater delegations, resourcing and training for<br />
community boards for more local decision making.<br />

Grants help conserve<br />
iconic buildings<br />
• By Annabelle Dick<br />
TWO LYTTELTON buildings<br />
have received tens of thousands<br />
of dollars in grants to maintain<br />
their heritage significance.<br />
A residential property on St<br />
Davids St and the Tin Palace on<br />
Oxford St both received heritage<br />
incentive grants from the city<br />
council’s communities, housing<br />
and economic development<br />
committee last Thursday.<br />
The Tin Palace received<br />
$29,250 and the St Davids St<br />
home received $26,852 to put<br />
towards conservation and maintenance.<br />
The dwelling at St Davids St is<br />
one of the oldest houses in Lyttelton<br />
and is listed as a ‘notable’<br />
building in the Banks Peninsula<br />
District Plan.<br />
The property was built as<br />
the family home of blacksmith<br />
Joseph Childs, his wife Fanny<br />
and their children, who arrived<br />
in the port on the Cressy vessel<br />
in 1850.<br />
The second grant, of up to<br />
$29,000, will be used to help pay<br />
for the maintenance of a late<br />
19th century, two-storey building.<br />
The 128-year-old building<br />
was nicknamed the Tin Palace<br />
because of its use of corrugated<br />
iron<br />
The building is the only survivor<br />
of a group of listed buildings<br />
on Oxford St that had links back<br />
to the rebuilding of Lyttelton<br />
after a big fire swept through<br />

The building only sustained<br />
moderate damage after the February<br />
22, 2011 earthquake, but it<br />
needs re-piling, re-levelling and<br />
its foundations fixed.<br />
The Tin Palace has been<br />
home to a legal firm, a shipping<br />
agency, a grain merchant, a dentist<br />
and is currently being leased<br />
to an art gallery.<br />

THE FATE of Yew Cottage will<br />
be discussed tomorrow at the<br />
city council meeting.<br />
The Akaroa-Wairewa Community<br />
Board will give their<br />
recommendations to the city<br />
council on what they think<br />
should be done with the heritage<br />
building.<br />
City council staff recommend<br />
the sale of Yew Cottage, while<br />
the board is keen to engage with<br />
residents over using the building<br />
for community purposes.<br />
The city council commissioned<br />
a report into the sale of the cottage<br />
but property consultants<br />
failed to realise it is a strategic<br />
asset. Public consultation was<br />
UP FOR<br />
DISCUSSION:<br />
One of<br />
Akaroa’s<br />
heritage<br />
buildings<br />
could be sold<br />
on the open<br />
market.<br />

CIVIC TRUST<br />
Yew Cottage decision<br />
needed if they intended to<br />
dispose of the property so the<br />
report was withdrawn.<br />
The board was given four<br />
options to consider including<br />
selling it on the open market;<br />
council undertaking repairs and<br />
establishing a public work for the<br />
property; leasing the property<br />
to a third party; or gifting the<br />
property.<br />
The building has been deteriorating<br />
with water seeping<br />
through the roof.<br />
The board was concerned at<br />
the lack of maintenance on the<br />
cottage and was supportive of an<br />
offer from the community to tidy<br />
the grounds.<br />

Your Local Views<br />
Every vote counts<br />
National<br />
List MP Nuk<br />
Korako talks<br />
about the<br />
upcoming<br />
local body<br />
elections in<br />
October and making your<br />
vote count<br />
Local elections are well<br />
underway. It’s no secret that<br />
voter turnout at this level is<br />
notoriously low. In 2013, only<br />
43 per cent of eligible voters<br />
voted in the city council elections.<br />
Perhaps that figure<br />
shouldn’t be surprising.<br />
Footpaths, sewage and rubbish<br />
don’t always make for the<br />
most rousing election issues<br />
no matter their importance.<br />
However, local politics<br />
matters. Councils across New<br />
Zealand manage more than<br />
$96 billion in fixed assets<br />
and contribute more than<br />
$8 billion to New Zealand’s<br />
GDP each year. Good local<br />
governance is at the heart of<br />
the prosperity of our local<br />
communities and growth at a<br />
national level. Every day our<br />
local representatives make<br />
important decisions. These<br />
decisions impact whether our<br />
public transport and roads<br />
willa 175<br />
willa 135<br />
Bella 175<br />
willa 95<br />
allow us to easily get to work<br />
on time, whether our children<br />
have quality parks, pools and<br />
libraries to enjoy, and whether<br />
we have a vibrant culture and<br />
community that attracts locals<br />
and tourists alike.<br />
The role of local governance<br />
is particularly important in<br />
Christchurch. With regeneration<br />
underway, it is essential<br />
we have local representatives<br />
who will continue to work<br />
constructively and enthusiastically<br />
with central Government<br />
to ensure Christchurch<br />
is a thriving city in which to<br />
work, live and play.<br />
I appreciate we’re all rather<br />
time-poor these days, but<br />
please do take the time to read<br />
about the candidates standing<br />
for our councils and boards.<br />
You might not think your vote<br />
will make a difference to who<br />
wins or loses but it can. When<br />
I ran for the Banks Peninsula<br />
Ward in 2013, I missed out by<br />
five votes. Every vote really<br />
can count, and it’s important<br />
to have your say in who will<br />
champion you and your community.<br />
In just over a week your voting<br />
papers will arrive in your<br />

Healthy children rewarded<br />
• By Barbara Crooks, of Ferrymead<br />
Rotary<br />
THIRTY BROMLEY School<br />
children have discovered that a<br />
healthy lifestyle can be fun and<br />
satisfying.<br />
The children, aged seven and<br />
eight, can recite all the challenges<br />
and activities they did to achieve<br />
the rewards offered by the Rotary<br />
healthy heroes programme.<br />
Nineteen of them achieved all five<br />
challenges each day for five days<br />
a week, for nine weeks. Eleven<br />
children partially completed all the<br />
challenges.<br />
However, the whole class has<br />
learned from the experience and<br />
enjoyed working towards the<br />
achievements. This is the first year<br />
that Ferrymead Rotary has sponsored<br />
the programme at Bromley<br />
School.<br />
The children talk about how<br />
they not only did their exercise at<br />
school, but also managed all sorts<br />
of exercise at home. Walking the<br />
dog was a favourite, even walking<br />
neighbours’ dogs. That activity<br />
qualified both for the exercise<br />
challenge as well as for doing<br />
something for other people.<br />
Helping other people also meant<br />
helping wash the dishes, collecting<br />
firewood and bringing it inside,<br />
and looking after younger siblings.<br />
The children spoke about how<br />
they enjoyed playing checkers<br />

expanding their minds and doing<br />
things other than watching TV and<br />
computer games can be fun as well.<br />
Eating three vegetables and two<br />
fruits each day was easily achieved<br />
by most children and they didn’t<br />
think it was difficult. Some children<br />
tried new vegetables as part of<br />
the programme.<br />
Healthy heroes is a rotary programme<br />
that has been running<br />
in some Christchurch schools for<br />
seven years. About 3000 students<br />
have taken part during that time.<br />

provides the rewards. Children<br />
who participate, but don’t achieve<br />
all the points, receive an<br />
achievement certificate and activity<br />

The programme aims to build<br />

ADVERTORIAL<br />
Historic<br />
British Hotel<br />
setting for<br />
wholesome<br />
new venture<br />
Fifty years ago it was one of New Zealand’s most<br />
notorious port pubs, the haunt of sailors, bikies, and<br />
apparently once or twice, Iggy Pop. Now Lyttleton’s The<br />
British Hotel is the setting for a much more wholesome<br />
venture - a plant-based home-delivery food service.<br />
When chef Tom Riley returned home to Christchurch<br />
late last year after 10 years overseas he had plans to<br />
open a bar and restaurant in the quake-damaged hotel.<br />
Recently bought by his aunt Rebecca Lovell-Smith and<br />
her husband Christian Carruthers, the building had been<br />
neglected since the 2011 quakes. With repairs now<br />
under way on it, the couple are keen to make it a vital<br />
part of the port community once again.<br />
Tom’s plans for a bar and restaurant however morphed<br />
into something quite different, after his close friend<br />
Cole approached him with an exciting idea. Spurred on<br />
by Coles parents experiences adopting a plant-based<br />
diet following a health scare, Cole and Tom thought<br />
they could make the transition easier by supllying all the<br />
ingredients needed to make healthy plant-based meals<br />
at home.<br />
“I work out the menus, make the sauces, marinades,<br />
spice mixes etc and we source our ingredients as locally<br />
as we can, with most of our vegetables being grown<br />
organically in or around Christchurch. “Our philosphy is,<br />
really, good, restaurant-quality food, that is good for you<br />
and good for the planet” says Tom.<br />
Cole says the benefit of a plant-based diet are wellknown.<br />
“Apart from the health benefits, this way of eating<br />
also appeals to people who are trying to live in a more<br />
sustainable and enviromentally friendly way” he adds<br />
“We’re not necessarily trying to get everyone to become<br />
vegan, we’d like to make it easy for people to have meat<br />
free nights, whilst still eating delicious food”.<br />
Meanwhile Cole’s parents, Trevor and Linelle are<br />
delighted at how easy it now is to follow a plant-based<br />
diet. Customers can opt for either a three-day or fiveday<br />
plan.”Every Sunday afternoon a box arrives on our<br />
doorstep full of goodies. There is such a variety of food<br />
and it has removed all the strain and guesswork about<br />
what to cook,” says Linelle.<br />
Dishes include the mouth-watering likes of: leek and<br />
pea risotto with coconut bacon, tempeh spaghetti and<br />
meatballs, black-pepper tofu with brussels sprouts and<br />
green-tea soba noodles, black-bean and kumara taco’s<br />
with tamarillo and avocado as well as warming winter<br />
soups. Plans for the restaurant in the British have not<br />
been abandoned however. Tom says it is still in the<br />
pipeline.<br />

Helping your<br />
children into<br />
their first home<br />
ADVERTORIAL<br />
My parents bought their first house in<br />
Christchurch on a quarter acre section in<br />
the 1970s and paid $12,000. At that time<br />
an average salary was around $6000 per<br />
annum. Today the GV of that same house<br />
is $650,000 and no doubt the market value<br />
is even higher with an average salary sitting<br />
around $60,000 to $65,000 per annum. It<br />
doesn’t take a mathematician to calculate<br />
today’s house values are often 10 times the<br />
average salary, whereas 40 years ago, they<br />
were, as was the case for my parents, only<br />
twice the average salary.<br />
The media tells us almost daily that for<br />
many young people looking to purchase<br />
a first home, the options are increasingly<br />
out of reach. The minimum 20% deposit<br />
required by lenders and increasing house<br />
values mean that for the same house my<br />
parents bought as first home owners in the<br />
1970s, today you would need a $130,000<br />
deposit.<br />
My parents were fortunate enough to have<br />
a grandparent loan what they needed<br />
to purchase their first home. If you are<br />
considering assisting your children or<br />
grandchildren with their first home<br />
purchase, then there are a number of<br />
options available.<br />
1. Loan or Gift<br />
The most obvious option to assist your child<br />
into a first home is by assisting with the<br />
deposit either by loaning the money to them<br />
or by gifting the money.<br />
In the past banks have required that such<br />
money is gifted; however, it is increasingly<br />
more common for banks to not make any<br />
issue on how the funds are obtained by the<br />
child. Other than reasons such as the bank<br />
requiring a gift of the deposit, or parents<br />
wishing to reduce the value of their assets, it<br />
would be more desirable to loan the deposit<br />
to the child. This ensures that the funds<br />
can always be recalled. For example if the<br />
child’s relationship ends, the funds will be<br />
less likely to form part of the “relationship<br />
property” for division.<br />
Any funds lent to your children should be<br />
recorded in a loan agreement or deed to<br />
ensure that they are not later treated as a<br />
gift.<br />
2. Guarantee a bank loan<br />
Banks are generally happy to lend money<br />
if they have adequate security (mortgages<br />
over properties). If properties can be<br />
lumped together to increase the value of<br />
the bank’s security, then the amount of<br />
borrowing may also be able to be increased.<br />
For example, if Mum and Dad own their<br />
family home outright valued at $600,000<br />
and also own a rental property valued at<br />
$400,000 which is subject to a $200,000<br />
loan, then their equity (over which the bank<br />
will have security by way of mortgages) is<br />
around $800,000 ($600,000 + $400,000<br />
- $200,000 = $800,000). Their son wants<br />
to purchase his first home for $350,000.<br />
By providing guarantees to the bank for<br />
their son’s loan of $350,000, the bank may<br />
agree to lending the full $350,000, on the<br />
basis that the bank still has $450,000 equity<br />
($800,000 - $350,000).<br />
An unlimited guarantee is a real no-no. It<br />
is better to try to get the bank to limit the<br />
guarantee to the value of the original loan<br />
of $350,000. An unlimited guarantee would<br />
secure the son’s other obligations to the<br />
bank such as credit cards and personal<br />
loans. It could even secure the son’s future<br />
obligations which Mum and Dad may not<br />
even be aware of. Where an unlimited<br />
guarantee is given by Mum and Dad, they<br />
should make sure that the guarantee is<br />
terminated as soon as there is enough<br />
equity in the son’s house so that the son can<br />
refinance directly with the bank.<br />
3. Extending own mortgage to provide<br />
deposit<br />
A better option might be for Mum and Dad<br />
to extend their mortgage for the required<br />
10 or 20% deposit needed by their son, and<br />
then lend that to their son (as outlined in 1<br />
above). A bank would still need to accept<br />
this source of funding when approving the<br />
son’s application for finance. But it would<br />
give Mum and Dad the certainty of knowing<br />
the exact amount owing to the bank.<br />
4. Joint ownership<br />
Something that I have not seen too often,<br />
but which may work well in the right<br />
circumstances is joint ownership between<br />
you and your child. For example, Mum and<br />
Dad provide the deposit (say 20% - $70,000<br />
of a $350,000 house) and then own a 20%<br />
share in the new home. The son takes out<br />
a loan for the remainder of $280,000 and<br />
owns the remaining 80% of the property.<br />
Again the bank will require a guarantee<br />
from Mum and Dad as they will be owners<br />
of the property. However, they gain the<br />
benefit of capital gain in the property. With<br />
this type of joint ownership arrangement, it<br />
is always a good idea to have a “Property<br />
Sharing Agreement” between Mum, Dad and<br />
son. Such agreement would deal with the<br />
sharing of outgoings and income (if any),<br />
restrictions on further borrowing, house<br />
maintenance requirements, relationship<br />
separations, and termination of the<br />
arrangement.<br />
These options are not exhaustive, and the<br />
individual arrangement which will work<br />
for you and your child will depend on your<br />
particular circumstances. I would be happy<br />
to talk to you about the possibilities.<br />
Next month’s article will stay with this topic<br />
on home affordability for first home buyers<br />
and look at options for purchasing using<br />
your kiwisaver funds, a homestart grant, and<br />
a welcome home loan.<br />

Something<br />
unsensible<br />
theme of play<br />
A NEW comedy is set to begin<br />
playing at The Court Theatre<br />
this month, promising to have<br />
the audience in stitches.<br />
The Streaker is written by<br />
Gregory Cooper and directed by<br />
Mark Hadlow.<br />
The show is based around<br />
a middle-aged man played by<br />
Mark Wright who lost his job at<br />
a call centre.<br />
When a Christchurch radio<br />
station offers $1 million to<br />
streak naked at the Super Rugby<br />
final he has nothing to lose.<br />
When writing the playwright<br />
Cooper was inspired by a<br />
friend’s story of a straight-laced<br />
relative who was egged on to<br />
streak at a cricket match and<br />
was absolutely mortified afterwards.<br />
“The story of someone<br />
sensible doing something very<br />
unsensible appealed.”<br />
The show contains coarse<br />
language, adult themes and<br />
nudity and is recommended for<br />
a mature audience.<br />
The show will run from<br />
<strong>September</strong> 17 to October 22.<br />

Teacher’s real life role<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
ONE OF Nikki Bleyendaal’s<br />
greatest joys is when a student<br />
comes and thanks her for being<br />
part of their education.<br />
The Christ’s College teacher<br />
describes it as a small gesture<br />
but a wonderful moment for any<br />
educator.<br />
“And students are fun . . .<br />
teaching at a boys’ school you<br />
forget how hilarious boys are<br />
most of the time,” she said.<br />
Bleyendaal is playing a role<br />
which mirrors her real-life<br />
profession, while also reliving<br />
her days as a student, in the Top<br />
Dog Theatre’s upcoming comedy<br />
Teechers.<br />
“We get to play everybody you<br />
would find in a school, which is<br />
so cool as a teacher because you<br />
know these people.”<br />
She will play about six different<br />
characters, ranging from the<br />
school bully to a fanatic drama<br />
teacher and fun-loving 16-yearold<br />
student.<br />
Teechers is a comedic<br />
“play withing a play” set in a<br />
poorer part of England. It’s based<br />
around three students who<br />
put on a play for their fellow<br />
dramatists. Yet underneath the<br />
humour lies a serious message<br />
close to Bleyendaal’s heart – all<br />
schools should have engaged<br />
and caring teachers.<br />
“Unfortunately, it is part of<br />
the reality we live in, that the<br />
bigger schools, or the schools<br />
with more money, tend to attract<br />
this idea of a better education.”<br />
She said the other “true” message<br />
in the show is the importance<br />
of drama in schools.<br />
Bleyendaal teaches English,<br />
maths, chemistry and sports<br />
on the weekend. She also dips<br />
her hand into as many drama<br />
productions as possible.<br />
Her interest in teaching was<br />
first ignited when she started<br />
doing low-level teaching at<br />

She said several of her students<br />
are coming along to the<br />
show but aren’t sure what to<br />
expect. She can’t wait to hear<br />
their interpretations.<br />
“I haven’t told them too much<br />
about it because I want them<br />
to make their own ideas,” she<br />
said.<br />

Fashion<br />
Cup week designer’s new collection<br />
• By Annabelle Dick<br />
ARA INSTITUTE of<br />
Canterbury student Abby<br />
Gottermeyer has already begun<br />
a career in the fashion industry<br />
before even graduating with her<br />
design degree.<br />
Miss Gottermeyer, 24, has<br />
started her own business where<br />
she makes and sells her creations<br />
under the brand name Abby<br />
Wynne – all while juggling fulltime<br />
study.<br />
“Business is going great, but<br />
it’s stressful doing it while course<br />
is on,” she said.<br />
She started as an entrepreneur<br />
when she put her collection up<br />
for sale at the FORM exhibition<br />
at Ara in July.<br />
The fashion school’s third<br />
year students’ collections were<br />
designed to a brief from industry<br />
partners and Miss Gottermeyer<br />
worked with Lonely Hearts to<br />
create her Cleopatra-themed<br />
pieces.<br />
A one-off sweatshirt with an<br />
Egyptian-style hand-drawn<br />
print was so well liked she had<br />
to create more to keep up with<br />
interest from keen buyers.<br />
Miss Gottermeyer even quit<br />
her part-time job so she could<br />
dedicate more time to her business.<br />
“I’m trying to juggle it all. I<br />

quit my job at a cafe and this<br />
has become my income and I’ve<br />
made more money already doing<br />
this than I would’ve if I stayed at<br />
my job,” she said.<br />
Miss Gottermeyer has had a<br />
keen eye for the creative industry<br />
her whole life as she grew up<br />
with an artist as a mother.<br />
Sandra Gottermeyer creates<br />
encaustic paintings, which<br />
involves using heated beeswax<br />
with coloured pigments.<br />
“She taught me a lot about<br />
colour,” she said.<br />
“She also taught me how to<br />
draw. She was a sewer and she<br />
had her own label for a while<br />
and that’s how I initially became<br />
interested in fashion.”<br />
While the sweatshirts have<br />
proved successful on the market,<br />
she admits she’s more interested<br />
in creating dress wear.<br />
“I’m using this experience to<br />
grow and learn who I am as a<br />
designer – I usually make clothes<br />
that I and my friends would<br />
wear,” she said.<br />
Miss Gottermeyer won the<br />
Ballantynes Cup Week Fashion<br />
Designer Award in 2015, the<br />
New Zealand Cup and Show<br />
Week Fashion in the Field Young<br />
Designer Award in 2014 and the<br />
Best Dressed Lady at Addington<br />
AWARD WINNING: Abby<br />
Gottermeyer has won numerous<br />
fashion designer awards at New<br />
Zealand Cup and Show Week.<br />
Contemporary Award in 2011.<br />
“I want my own label, end of,”<br />
she said.<br />
Miss Gottermeyer is working<br />
towards her end of year,<br />
Miami-based collection, which<br />
will showcase at Ara’s PITCH<br />
Fashion Show.<br />
Miss Gottermeyer has established<br />
her own Facebook page<br />
‘Abby Wynne’ to sell her creations.<br />
New dog rules start in spring<br />
New rules around dogs, and what their owners<br />
are required to do, are in effect from Thursday<br />
1 <strong>September</strong> <strong>2016</strong>.<br />
Major changes to the general rules include:<br />
• All dog owners must carry plastic bags to clean up dog<br />
poo when in public places.<br />
• When dog owners have their dog off-leash in a<br />
public place, they must have it “under effective<br />
control”, which means being aware of where their<br />
dog is and what it is doing, and ensuring it is<br />
responsive to commands and not creating a nuisance.<br />

Travel<br />
Exploring the beauty of <strong>Bay</strong>on<br />
• By Mike Yardley<br />
SIEM REAP is the launch pad to<br />
over 50 Angkor temple ruin sites,<br />
reclaimed from the jungle and<br />
swooned on by tourists.<br />
Further afield, many others are<br />
still submerged and out of bounds<br />
because of the insidious presence<br />
of land mines.<br />
With such a bewildering array<br />
of temple-touring options on<br />
offer, knowing what to see and<br />
where to go, to get a rich flavour<br />
of Angkor’s diverse delights,<br />
needs expert guidance.<br />
Enter Wendy Wu Tours and<br />
my exuberant guide Mao, who<br />
deftly led me around a curated<br />
selection of enticing temple ruins.<br />
After taking in the obligatory<br />
sunrise spectacle at Angkor Wat,<br />
we hot-footed it north to Angkor<br />
Thom before the heaving hordes<br />
descended on the scene.<br />
Translating as “great city”, this<br />
walled and moated royal capital<br />
was the last constructed under<br />
the Khmer empire, by King Jayavarman<br />
VII, in the 12th-century.<br />
Mao led me to the staggering<br />
South Gate, where on either side<br />
of the road, a stone causeway<br />
is festooned in 108 sculptured<br />
demons and gods, locked in a tug<br />
of war with a nine-headed snake,<br />
in a scene played out from Hindu<br />
MONUMENTAL: The <strong>Bay</strong>on Temple. Moats were created around the temple as an engineering<br />
measure, not as a means of fortification.<br />
mythology.<br />
Like Angkor Wat, Angkor<br />
Thom is surrounded by moats,<br />
which were principally designed<br />
as an engineering measure – not<br />
as fortification. The body of water<br />
helped maintain the structural<br />
balance of the sandstone foundations<br />
of the temple complex,<br />
combating the threat of stones<br />
cracking and slumping.<br />
Once inside the South Gate,<br />
shafts of golden sunlight<br />
streamed through the leafy forest,<br />
as cicadas droned lustily,<br />
cheeky monkeys scampered and<br />
elephants stood sentinel, awaiting<br />
the another day’s toil lugging lazy<br />
tourists about. Mao strongly dissuaded<br />
me about recommending<br />
these treks – sadly these graceful,<br />
lumbering animals are atrociously<br />
treated.<br />
Beyond the forest glade, I stood<br />
before the prize draw, <strong>Bay</strong>on<br />
Temple, stunned and bedazzled.<br />
It is like nothing else in the land.<br />
A magical, eerie, and mysterious<br />
place, where 54 sculpted towers<br />
pierce the skyline, extravagantly<br />
carved with curiously smiling<br />
faces, as enigmatic as Mona Lisa.<br />
In fact, many locals refer to <strong>Bay</strong>on<br />
as the Mona Lisa of Southeast<br />
Asia.<br />
No fewer than 216 carved faces,<br />
in deep-relief, infuse the temple<br />
with a soothing, feel-good calm.<br />
It’s the same face, masterfully<br />
replicated, with a broad forehead,<br />
slightly curved lips, downcast<br />
eyes and wide nostrils. The face<br />
is believed to be a depiction of the<br />
king, himself.<br />
The large central tower, or<br />
Prang, is pockmarked with 16<br />
small coves, where kings and high<br />
priests would meditate.<br />
After being abandoned in the<br />
16th-century, in 1933, French<br />
archaeologist George Groslier<br />
excavated the main prang only<br />
to unearth a colossal statue of<br />
King Jayavarman hidden underneath.<br />
As we continued exploring<br />
the temple, we interacted with<br />
beaming elderly matrons selling<br />
Buddhist incense sticks, giving<br />
you the opportunity to make<br />
offerings, in a very non-pushy,<br />
Buddhist way.<br />
I also lapped up the bas-relief<br />
galleries speckling the temple,<br />
depicting an empire full of stories<br />
and legends, illustrating warfare<br />
and spirituality. Check out the<br />
grisly images of crocodiles eating<br />
the carcasses of fallen soldiers.<br />
What a way to go.<br />
You’ll glimpse spear-toting<br />
Khmer soldiers riding elephants,<br />
a crouching lady getting burned<br />
on a fire, a man handing a turtle<br />
to a chef and soldiers sacrificing<br />
a buffalo to ensure good luck in<br />
battle. As much as Angkor Wat<br />
is monumentally magnificent,<br />
it’s the humanity and personality<br />
of <strong>Bay</strong>on that make it such a<br />
heart-stealer – and my favourite<br />
Angkor temple.<br />

A House Without Windows<br />
by Nadia Hashimi<br />
For two decades, Zeba was a loving wife, a patient mother, and a peaceful<br />
villager. But her quiet life is shattered when her husband, Kamal, is found<br />
brutally murdered in the courtyard of their home. Nearly catatonic with shock,<br />
Zeba is unable to account for her whereabouts at the time of his death. Barely<br />
escaping a vengeful mob, Zeba is arrested and jailed. Awaiting<br />
trial, she meets a group of women, Nafisa, Latifa, and<br />
Mezhgan, whose own misfortunes have led them to<br />
these bleak cells. For these women, the prison is both<br />
a haven and a punishment, and there they form an<br />
indelible sisterhood. Is Zeba a cold-blooded killer, her<br />
cellmates wonder, or has she been imprisoned, like<br />
them, for breaking some social rule. Has she truly<br />
inherited her mother’s powers of jadu-witchcraft-which<br />
can bend fate to her will. Can she save herself or them. A<br />
moving look at the lives of modern Afghan women, A House<br />
Without Windows is astonishing, unforgettable, and triumphant.<br />

Southern Ruby<br />
by Belinda Alexandra<br />
Forbidden love. Family secrets. A twist of fate. The stunning new generational<br />
saga from Belinda Alexandra, bestselling author of Tuscan Rose and White<br />
Gardenia. In New Orleans - the city of genteel old houses and ancient oak<br />
trees covered in Spanish moss, of seductive night life, of Creole culture,<br />
voodoo and jazz - two women separated by time and tragedy will find each<br />
other at last. Amanda, orphaned as a child and suffering the loss of her<br />
beloved grandmother, has left Sydney in search of a family she never knew.<br />
Ruby, constrained by the expectations of society and class, is carrying a<br />
lifetime of secrets. Amanda’s arrival sparks revelations long buried: a double<br />
life, a forbidden love, and a loss that cannot be forgotten. Southern Ruby<br />
is a sweeping story of love, passion, family and honour. Alternating in time<br />
between the 1950s and the eve of Hurricane Katrina, it is also a tribute to a<br />
city heady with mystery, music, and superstition, which has borne the tumults<br />
of race and class and the fury of nature, but has never given up hope.<br />

A Gut Feeling<br />
Digestive health is becoming increasingly important<br />
for improving our overall wellbeing. As there is a<br />
distinct connection between our tummy and our<br />
moods, immunity and even our behaviours, it pays<br />
to follow your gut if you feel out of sorts with<br />
these nutritional enhancer<br />
Dietary fibre is made up of<br />
three types and each play a<br />
different role throughout the<br />
digestive tract. It’s often a<br />
case of balancing them all and not only<br />
supplementing with just one. To ensure<br />
you get enough fibre in your diet: women<br />
should aim for 25 grams to 30 grams<br />
and men 30 grams to 38 grams each day.<br />
Soluble fibre are found in oats, psyllium,<br />
vegetables, fruits with their skin on and<br />
supplements like Metamucil. Insoluble<br />
fibre can be found in wheat bran pasta<br />
and quinoa. Resistant starch is contained<br />
in cold cooked pasta, potatoes and firm,<br />
fresh bananas.<br />
Probiotics and prebiotic foods can help<br />
keep the correct pH balance(acidity to<br />
alkalinity) in our intestines. These ‘good’<br />
bacteria assist with breaking down fibre<br />
in the bowel and produce healthy stool<br />
movements. Probiotics can be found in<br />
supplements, cultured yoghurt, kombucha<br />
drinks and fermented vegetables. Prebiotic<br />
foods are Jerusalem artichokes and raw<br />
garlic, leeks and onions.<br />
Poor gut health could be caused by,<br />
but not limited to, high stress levels,<br />
caffeine, smoking or inadequate water<br />
consumption. If you suffer from prolonged<br />
periods of reflux, constipation, diarrhoea<br />
or cramping and nausea, seek medical<br />
advice. Your doctor may help identify<br />
possible intolerances or allergies.<br />

HYDRATE TO ELEVATE<br />
We all know drinking water is important, but the<br />
majority of us simply don’t drink enough even<br />
though we know it makes us feel<br />
great when we do. We look at the benefits and<br />
motivate you to drink more with a few tips on<br />
how to make it just a little more palatable.<br />
With over a quarter of Kiwis<br />
consuming less than two<br />
glasses of water a day<br />
and only 5% drinking<br />
more than the recommended eight, the<br />
message obviously hasn’t hit home on the<br />
importance of hydrating our body.<br />
A recent survey conducted by<br />
SodaStream found that Cantabrians are<br />
particularly guilty when it comes to their<br />
water intake.<br />
With 82% drinking less than six<br />
glasses of water a day, but with over 85%<br />
admitting they feel healthier when they<br />
drink more water, something needs to<br />
be done to bridge the gap in terms of<br />
what we know to be true and what we’re<br />
actually doing about it.<br />
This same survey revealed that<br />
although 41% of us limit how many soft<br />
drinks we consume due to our concerns<br />
over sugar content, the same number<br />
of people said tea or coffee is this their<br />
number one drink of choice.<br />
Some people even believe that the water<br />
consumed in their cup of Joe constitutes<br />
part of their water intake. This is a fallacy.<br />
As caffeine actually dehydrates us, as<br />
does alcohol too, it means we need to<br />
drink even more water to compensate.<br />
Not so surprisingly the reason we don’t<br />
drink nearly enough water is that we<br />
simply forget. Now with apps you can<br />
download direct to your smart phone,<br />
there are no more excuses.<br />
Further studies proved that people<br />
who had a SodaStream machine in their<br />
homes were more likely to drink more<br />
water.<br />
In fact, the study showed that people<br />
drank 30% more water.<br />
For those of us who aren’t used<br />
to drinking water like it’s going<br />
out of fashion, there are plenty of ways<br />
to increase the fun factor while still<br />
being healthy.<br />
After<br />
Before<br />
By simply turning tap water into sparkling water with a SodaStream<br />
machine and adding a splash of fresh lemon juice or naturally<br />
squeezed fruit juice, is bound to have a positive impact on<br />
our health and wellbeing.
