From gold 

to school 

exams 

Three weeks ago Little River’s 

Jack Lopas (left) was winning 

gold at the Junior World 

Rowing Championships. This 

week he is sitting his NCEA 

exams. Bridget Rutherford 

spoke to Jack on pages 10 and 

11 to find out a bit more about 

him.

Principal replacement deadline 

• By Annabelle Dick 

LYTTELTON PRIMARY School 

has to appoint a new principal 

by November 26 to replace the 

departing principal Diana Feary. 

Mrs Feary announced her 

resignation two weeks ago. The 

school is now looking for a successor 

by late November to take 

the reigns as principal in 2017. 

Mrs Feary’s last day is January 

26 and a new principal has to be 

appointed at least two months 

before the existing principal 

leaves as part of the Employment 

Relations Act 2000. 

Board of Trustees chairwoman 

Bridget O’Brien said they’re now 

in the process of searching for 

a new principal but the role has 

not yet been advertised. 

“We’re already under way with 

the principal recruitment process. 

The board had a meeting 

on Monday night to start the 

planning for recruiting a new 

principal,” she said. 

“We’re aiming to get it in the 

New Zealand Education Gazette 

in early October and applications 

will close on October 17.” 

Vice principal Bernice Swain 

is also leaving the school and 

handed her notice in last week. 

The departure of two of the 

school’s senior management 

staff has left the school with a 

lone vice principal Jeremy Orczy 

leading into next year. 

Mrs Feary will take a gap year 

while Mrs Swain will go on to 

teach at Haeata Community 

Campus in Aranui next term. 

Mrs O’Brien said Mrs Feary 

had been planning on leaving after 

the merger between Lyttelton 

Main School and Lyttelton West 

was complete. 

Said Mrs O’Brien: “Now the 

transition is complete she feels 

like now is the right time to 

move on and somebody else 

take over the reigns. She’s been 

planning this for over a year now 

that she would see it through to 

the end of this year.” 

She also said the reports of 

bullying at the school weren’t 

related to her resignation. 

The school won’t be replacing 

Mrs Swain as vice principal and 

her management duties will be 

spread across other staff. 

“One of the reasons we had 

two vice principals is because we 

were operating across two sites 

until term two this year and we 

needed management on both 

sides. Now we’re on the one side 

we feel that one vice principal is 

sufficient,” Mrs O’Brien said. 

Mrs Swain will finish at the 

end of this term and a fixed-term 

teacher will step in to cover.

News.......................................3-8 

JACK LOPAS has a huge rowing 

future ahead of him and Bridget 

Rutherford profiles the Little River 

17-year-old on pages 10-11. 

He’s back from the Netherlands 

where he won gold at the junior 

world champs – just in time for 

his NCEA exams at Christchurch 

Boys’ High School. 

Lopas has a huge amount of 

natural sporting talent, and also 

has rowing in his genes. But what 

separates the champions from the 

pack is the willingness and determination 

to go that bit further in 

training, and of course that extra 

percentage up top. 

On another note, it appears our 

front page article last week on the 

coastal hazards LIM issue has had 

an impact on city hall. They’ve 

delayed their latest course of action 

and will now meet with the

group fighting this huge issue. See Lyttelton residents dressed in Victorian garb to

Councillor for Heathcote 

Hi again – As chair of the Hagley Ferrymead 

Community Board for the last three years, I have 

worked hard for our communities. 

I am now standing for Council as promised meaningful 

engagement with communities and 

local decision making have not yet happened. 

It is at Council level that these changes are made. 

We need strong communities for a stronger,

We need councillors with community 

experience to make it happen.

Hope for LIM report saga 

Latham to 

meet again 

with Dalziel 


Mayor Lianne Dalziel has 

agreed to meet further with 

the group campaigning against 

flood and erosion data on 

property LIM reports. 

She will sit down with 

Christchurch Coastal Residents 

United spokesman Dr Darrell 

Latham (right) within the next 

fortnight. 

Ms Dalziel has asked the 

group to work with the city 

council on changing the 

Coastal Hazards Assessment 

Report. 

“We had a conversation with 

the mayor about the whole 

coastal hazards process. As a 

result of that meeting we are 

now looking forward to the 

review of the coastal hazards 

chapter and working in a 

collaborative and consultative 

way with the mayor and 

council,” he said. 

The original report found a 

number of coastal homes are at 

risk of erosion and flooding 

and that information has 

gone on homeowners’ LIM 

reports. 

A review panel urged the 

city council to remove it and 

undertake more research 

because the maps identifying 

18,000 at-risk properties could 

be legally unsound. 

Dr Latham said working 

with the city council to change 

the report is a significant step 

forward for coastal residents. 

“The mayor has opened 

the door for us to engage in 

the process and wants this to 

happen asap and before the next 

scheduled city council meeting 

on September 22,” he said. 

“The reality of the situation, 

however, will become clear 

when we discuss proposed 

LIM wording. The devil, of 

course, will always be in the 

detail.” 

In Brief 

BUS SHELTER 

A bus shelter will be installed on 

Norwich Quay. A new bus stop 

location was approved in June and 

the shelter will now be installed as 

well. The bus stop and shelter will 

be installed adjacent to 25 Norwich 

Quay and will replace the existing 

bus stop on Norwich Quay opposite 

Dublin St. It will cost about $9000 

to build and install the shelter 

which should be in place within the 

next three months. 

DAMAGED WALL 

A structural assessment will be 

done on concrete blocks and fencing 

surrounding a damaged wall next 

to the Gaol Steps. The steps lead 

from St David St to Oxford St near 

Lyttelton Primary School. The 

obstacles take up to 50 per cent 

of the pavement space and it is of 

concern as many children go past 

the wall. The Ministry of Education 

own the damaged wall and it will 

be assessed before removing the 

concrete blocks and fence as it could 

be unsafe to stand uncovered. 

BEACHVILLE RD REPAIRS 

Road repairs will impact access to 

Beachville Rd in Redcliffs. Work on 

the southern corner of Beachville 

Rd began on Monday. There will 

be a road closure in place at the 

southern corner and access will be 

from the north end of Beachville Rd 

for the next two weeks.

Court repair concerns 


NEARLY SIX years after the 

February 22 earthquake, the 

Lyttelton Tennis Club is still 

trying to get its damaged courts 

repaired and up to working order. 

The club has significant court 

surface damage and a retaining 

wall that needs to be fixed so the 

members can have proper access 

to the club’s facilities. 

Club president Jillian Frater 

raised her concerns to the Lyttelton-Mt 

Herbert Community 

Board about the repairs and the 

possibility of progressing them. 

“It’s been an ongoing, long 

process and we wanted to make 

sure that they were still considering 

it,” she said. 

One of the two court surfaces 

is cracked and the bank behind 

it has slumped onto the courts 

both as a result of the 2011 

earthquake and subsequent 

storms. 

The steps to the clubroom has 

also been fenced off for the past 

three years and only once the 

other retaining wall is repaired 

can work on the steps and court 

begin. 

“The retaining wall is a priority 

as it influences the use of 

the stairs. They fenced them off 

a couple of years ago and we 

haven’t been able to use them but

Couple escape unhurt 

after campervan overturns 


AN AUSTRALIAN couple had 

a lucky break after escaping 

from their campervan which 

overturned in strong winds on 

State Highway 75. 

The pair were travelling to 

Akaroa when strong gusts blew 

their campervan off the road last 

Wednesday at about 10pm. 

Little River Volunteer Fire 

Brigade chief fire officer David 

Irving said the couple were 

travelling to Akaroa on the last 

day of their holiday when the 

incident happened. 

“The wind caught their campervan, 

put it up on two wheels 

and they didn’t have enough 

road to wrestle it back down so it 

was blown off the road,” he said. 

Three volunteer fire officers attended 

the scene between Graylees 

Rd and Kaituna Valley Rd. 

The couple weren’t injured but 

the campervan has been written 

off.

events. 

they need to move those before 

they can fix the court.” 

City council has already spent 

$170,000 to repair one of the 

damaged retaining walls and 

they’ll have to spend more to 

complete the remaining work. 

Lyttelton-Mt Herbert Community 

Board chairwoman 

Paula Smith said at the time 

they heard from Ms Frater, the 

board heard from the capital 

programme who fix retaining 

walls in Lyttelton. 

“They agreed to go have a 

look at it and they’re probably 

going to include that in their 

programme but I haven’t heard 

a confirmation of that. But staff 

are now aware of the problem 

and are working on it,” Ms 

Smith said. 

The community board has requested 

city council staff update 

the board regularly on progress 

with outstanding issues raised in 

regards to the tennis courts.

Big claims for mileage 

• By Annabelle Dick and Bridget 

Rutherford 

MORE THAN $30,000 has been 

claimed by city councillors and 

community board members in 

mileage this term and that figure 

is likely to increase considerably. 

Community board members 

and a city councillor representing 

Banks Peninsula made 

up the majority of those who 

claimed back their mileage costs 

over the past three years. 

Representatives from the 

Akaroa-Wairewa Community 

Board and the Lyttelton-Mt 

Herbert Community Board have 

claimed $33,079.31 in mileage 

payment. 


Board chairwoman Pam Richardson 

got $11,468 back from the 

city council, which made up a 

third of the total claims. 

Lyttelton-Mt Herbert Community 

Board chairwoman 

Paula Smith came in second at 

$7819, while Banks Peninsula 

city councillor Andrew Turner 

claimed $6868. 

City councillors and community 

board members can claim 

back 74c for every kilometre 

they travel over 30km when they 

are going to and from council 

or board business in their own 

vehicles. 

Pam Richardson 

Banks Peninsula representatives 

have to drive further to 

get to council-related meetings, 

because the wards cover a larger 

area. 

As wards have changed with 

the representation review, the 

two Banks Peninsula community 

boards will become one 

and meetings will be held at Lyttelton’s 

new boardroom. 

Mrs Richardson, who lives 

in Pigeon Bay, and serves on 

the Akaroa-Wairewa Community 

Board, said with the two 

boards merging after October’s 

elections, the amount of travel 

would increase. 

“For prospective members 

it will be considerably more 

travel,” Mrs Richardson said. 

Ms Smith, who lives in 

Diamond Harbour, won’t be 

standing in the next local body 

elections but she said mileage 

costs will increase for both 

the city council and the board 

members. 

“It will increase and so will the 

cost to the elected representatives 

and their families because 

the rules set means you only get 

reimbersed for the mileage you 

do over 30km. For example I 

do about $8000 worth of mileage 

but there’s a big proportion 

I’m paying myself because my 

journeys are less than 30km,” 

she said. 

Remuneration and expenses, 

including mileage, are set by the 

Remuneration Authority and 

the city council provides the appropriate 

support. 

Of the 28 community board 

representatives and 13 city councillors 

in the city, only five board 

members and two city councillors 

claimed their mileage back, 

in total costing the city council 

$33,990. 


Board members Lyndon Graham 

and Janis Haley claimed 

$5431 and $1490 respectively. 

OFFICIALLY OPEN: New World Ferry Rd was opened 

by Port Hills MP Ruth Dyson (left) and members of the 

Boock family, Oliver Gardiner, Greg Boock, Lily, Macy, 

Hunter and Rebecca. The store has been built next to 

the old one, near the Woolston shops. It has taken a year 

to rebuild and, once the old store is demolished, there 

will also be more car parks. Owner-operator Greg Boock 

said the store is in “fantastic shape” and he was pleased 

to open it to shoppers for the first time.

Harbour will be monitored 

before proposed dredging 


WATER QUALITY monitoring 

is underway for the Lyttelton 

Port of Christchurch’s proposed 

dredging project. 

The $3 million operation 

began in Lyttelton Harbour 

on Friday in what is the largest 

environmental monitoring 

programme ever undertaken 

for a dredging project in New 

Zealand. 

LPC is proposing to dredge 

the shipping channel so larger 

container ships can visit the port. 

The proposal is still waiting on 

resource consent from the city 

council. 

LPC will install 14 water 

quality buoys and monitoring 

equipment on the sea floor 

throughout the harbour, Port 

Levy and offshore marine areas 

to capture live information. 

Water clarity, pH level, 

temperature and nutrient levels 

will be measured and a summary 

of the data will be sent to a 

website every 15 minutes. 

LPC chief executive Peter 

Davie said information from the 

sites will enable the proposed 

dredging operations to be 

constantly managed. 

“While the company is

Options investigated to 

deal with slow tourists 


AKAROA residents frustrated 

by tourist drivers may get 

some relief soon as options are 

investigated for slow vehicles. 

The New Zealand Transport 

Agency is looking at locations for 

pull-off areas and slow vehicle 

bays near the Hilltop area after a 

petition was sent to the agency in 

a bid to make State Highway 75 

more user-friendly. 

Petition organiser Marie Haley, 

of Goughs Bay, said residents 

have endured years of frustration 

over road conditions and slow 

drivers between Akaroa and Little 

River. 

“It came about because each 

summer there’s a lot of very slow 

tourists on the roads. There’s a lot 

of tourist buses and vehicles on 

State Highway 75 and nowhere 

for them to pull over and let people 

pass,” Ms Haley said. 

Residents want to see sealed 

shoulders and driving courtesy 

signs introduced to allow tourists 

to pull over and let others pass. 

NZTA traffic and safety manager 

Tony Spowart said while he 

recognised residents’ frustration, 

drivers should be aware that 

this is a route often travelled by 

tourists.

30 minutes, with 85 per cent of 

journeys completed under 37 

minutes. This is considered a 

safe and reasonable journey time 

given the hilly terrain and need 

for all drivers to take care,” he 

said. 

“We understand that local 

drivers who know this road well 

sometimes get held up behind 

people who are new to this part 

of the country, or who may be 

diverted by the scenery. While 

this can be frustrating, it is 

relatively temporary and for 

everyone’s safety and enjoyment 

of the Banks Peninsula area, we 

encourage all drivers to slow 

down and be patient.” 

The Akaroa-Wairewa Community 

Board is backing the petition 

and the city council will discuss 

it at its September 15 meeting. 

It may be true that there are fewer buyers and sellers in 

the winter marketplace but the ones that are there are 

serious and have a sense 

of urgency to purchase.

Bodybuilder turns pro 

STRIKE AS POSE: Dan 

Gerrard posed on stage 

to win an international 

competition after only one 

year on the circuit. 


A FERRYMEAD fitness model 

has graduated from amateur to 

professional competitions after 

taking out his category at an 

international bodybuilding event. 

F45 Training Ferrymead manager 

Dan Gerrard, 23, won the 

fitness category at the Pan Pacific 

Championships/NZ International 

Pro Am and received a pro-card, 

meaning he’s now considered 

a World Fitness Federation pro 

athlete. 

“It was really interesting. I did 

things a bit differently; I had a big 

focus on work and the stuff I was 

doing for F45 so I was just trying 

to enjoy the process a lot more 

and it paid off,” he said. 

The competition incorporated 

bodybuilding, figure and fitness 

and was held in Auckland 

recently. 

The win now means Gerrard 

will be able to compete alongside 

top bodybuilders from around 

the world. 

“Competing as an amateur, it’s 

all self-funded and you’re doing 

it for yourself. Whereas, as a pro 

athlete, I would only be able to 

enter against other professionals 

in shows and there’s more monetary 

value involved,” he said. 

Gerrard has been training in 

the gym since he was 16 and 

has spent the last year prepping 

and competing in bodybuilding, 

figure and fitness events as a male 

sports model. 

Gerrard initially trained in 

karate but an injury put him out 

of practice so he decided to use 

fitness bodybuilding as a competitive 

outlet. 

“It was never a goal to get on 

stage and compete, but I was 

competing in karate and I got 

injured in 2014 and that ended 

my competing. So when I was 

going through the rehab process, 

setting goals to do a competition, 

that was what got me motivated 

and back on track,” he said. 

His first show was the Christchurch 

Grand Prix, where he won 

his category and qualified for the 

Southern Hemisphere Championships 

earlier this year. 

Gerrard also qualified for Mr 

Universe but didn’t have the 

freedom or support to go to the 

United States for the competition. 

His also competed in the 

Southern Hemisphere Championships 

on the Gold Coast in June 

this year, where he came second 

overall. 

Gerrard plans to travel to Asia 

and Australia to follow the bodybuilding 

circuit. 

UNKNOWN FATE: A decision on the future of Yew Cottage

A DECISION on the fate of Yew 

Cottage has been delayed yet 

again to give city council staff 

more time to explore uses for 

the building. 

The matter was discussed last 

Thursday at a city council meeting 

where the Akaroa-Wairewa

their recommendation of retaining 

the building for community 

purposes. 

The property’s condition is 

deteriorating and needs about 

$200,000 of work done. 

City council staff had proposed 

consulting the public 

about selling the building on the 

open market, with a covenant 

on the property to protect its 

heritage values, but the community 

board was reluctant to take 

that step. 

The board instead recommended 

the city council delay a 

decision until city council staff 

have worked with the Akaroa 

community and groups to identify 

future uses for the building. 

The city council accepted the 

board’s recommendation. 

Yew Cottage dates back to 

1877. It was bought by the 

former Banks Peninsula District 

Council in 1981 to ensure it was 

not demolished. 

Akaroa is home to around 280 

colonial buildings.

AFFAIR:

residents 

dressed in

fashion for 

the Lyttelton 

Farmers’ 

Market’s 11th 

birthday. 

MARKET MILESTONE: It’s been 11 years since the Lyttelton Farmers’ Market 

began and the affair was celebrated in style with a steampunk-themed 

market. Residents were invited to come to the market in full steampunk or 

Victorian costume on Saturday, September 3. The market began in 2005 and 

is a not-for-profit enterprise run by Project Lyttelton and volunteers. More than 

40 vendors operate at the market, supplying the area with fresh fruit, veges, 

baked goods, craft beer, fish, poultry and game. 


THE LYTTELTON-MT Herbert 

Community Board has moved to 

its new premises but it’s not all 

new – the board room features a 

piece of Banks Peninsula history. 

The board formally opened the 

new Lyttelton community board 

room and a big oval table used by 

the former Banks Peninsula District 

Council takes centre stage. 

Board members farewelled the 

old room at 15 London St. They 

held a walking parade on the way 

to the new room at 25 Canterbury 

St last Wednesday. 

The board has been using the 15 

London St room to hold meetings 

since earthquake damage forced 

the closure of the Lyttelton Service 

Centre. 

The new room was blessed and 

a speech was given by the board’s 

longest standing member, Ann 

Jolliffe. 

The room also hosts a sideboard 

and a Maori carving which 

belonged to the Banks Peninsula 

District Council. 

The boardroom will be available 

for community use.

Our People 

World champion junior rower 

Little River’s Jack Lopas has just returned from the Junior World Rowing 

Championships with a gold medal hanging around his neck, and he is straight into 

NCEA exams. Bridget Rutherford spoke to him about beating his crewmate at 

Maadi Cup, and holding the unofficial national record for his 2km ergometer 

ACHIEVEMENT: Jack Lopas, 17, has represented New Zealand 

in rowing twice and hopes to compete at the Olympics. 

PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN 

So you’ve just won gold in the 

double sculls– how does it feel 

to be a world champion? 

I’ve actually been asked that a 

lot, but it’s kind of hard because 

it doesn’t really feel that much 

different. It’s a funny feeling 

thinking you’re the top in the 

world in your event. 

Can you run me through the 

race? 

It was really rough at race 

time, so we had to take that into 

account. We’ve always been a bit 

slower off the start, so we just 

stuck to our guns and focused on 

our middle kilometre. We took 

the lead in the third 500m just 

after the 1km mark, which 

is where we wanted that to happen. 

What was running through 

your mind at the start line, were 

you nervous? 

I was the most nervous in the 

heats because you don’t know 

what to expect. I was a bit shaky, 

and with the rough conditions 

it was another thing resting on 

your mind. 

What about when you crossed 

GOING FOR GOLD: Jack Lopas and Lenny Jenkins racing in the 

Junior World Rowing Championships. 

PHOTO: ROWING NEW ZEALAND 

the finish line? 

It was a huge relief for all that 

stress to be over and not having 

to worry about the result. It was a 

pretty unreal feeling. It’s painful 

during the race but after winning 

you feel like it wasn’t too bad and 

it was all worth it. 

So this is your second year of 

competing at juniors? 

Yep, I was in the reserve double 

last year. We still raced and got 

second in the B final. It was 

good motivation to come back 

this year, and it makes it a lot 

easier racing once you’ve done 

it already. You have a bit more 

experience. 

When did you begin rowing? 

I started at the end of third 

form. I’ve done four years of it 

now.

has eye on future Olympics 

So you were at Lincoln 

High School before shifting 

to Christchurch Boys’ High 

School, why the shift? 

It was for the rowing – I was 

the only rower at Lincoln, so I 

was doing it once a week down 

at Kerrs Reach with one other. I 

started at boys’ high in 2013 – in 

year 10. My mum and dad both 

rowed and I have a couple of 

uncles who did, and my granddad 

rowed for New Zealand. So 

I thought I might do it. I enjoyed 

doing it by myself, but I felt like 

I needed to be doing it with a 

group. My parents both rowed 

at club level and got a couple of 

national medals. 

And you would have been to a 

couple of Maadi Cups, how did 

you go in those? 

I’ve been to three. I didn’t make 

Maadi in my first year. But in 

my first season competing I got a 

bronze in the under-16 quadruple 

sculls and then the next year I 

got silver in the under-17 double 

sculls, under-17 quadruple sculls 

and in the under-18 quadruple 

sculls. In my last season this year, 

I got gold in the under-18 single, 

double and quad, and a bronze in 

the under-18 eight. 

At Maadi the under-18 eights 

are the big races to win – which 

medal did you enjoy winning 

the most? 

I think the quad. I was the most 

excited after winning it because 

it’s a group of four mates who 

train together the whole season. 

And you’re the national record 

holder for your age group 

for the 2km erg, that’s pretty 

impressive, what was your time? 

I don’t know if it’s actually official, 

but I pulled 5min 57sec. I’ve 

always progressed with each erg, 

I’ve never gone backwards. 

You beat Olympic champion 

Hamish Bond’s time didn’t you? 

I pulled faster than Hamish 

Bond’s time when he was my age. 

I think Eric Murray and Hamish 

Bond pull around the 5min 42sec 

mark. 

So you’re from Little River 

aren’t you? 

Yes, I live about 4km from the 

township on a lifestyle block. I 

actually went into Little River 

School when I got back, because 

my mum teaches there and had 

been keeping the kids updated. 

I went in and had a chat to all 

the kids and took in my medal. I 

went there from year 1-8, and my 

younger brother is still there. 

How many siblings do you 

have? 

I’ve got an older sister and three 

younger brothers. We are quite a 

big rugby family, all of my brothers 

made Ellesmere representative 

teams and two of them made 

Canterbury Country teams. 

Do you play rugby yourself?

ROWING NEW 

ZEALAND 

I used to play, last year was the 

first year since I was four that I 

haven’t played because I couldn’t 

due to juniors. I did miss it, I 

was watching all of my brothers’ 

games. I was playing prop in the 

boys’ high 16As before I stopped 

playing. 

And by the sound of your 

training schedule you will be 

eating your mum out of house 

and home, how much do you 

have to eat to fuel your body? 

She does notice the difference. 

But I have three brothers 

so they eat a lot too. You just 

have to chuck in more pasta and 

potatoes. Up north we would eat 

two breakfasts and a full lunch 

and a big dinner, then a couple 

of extra bits in the middle, like a 

banana and honey sandwich or 

something. 

So what about your double 

partner, did you know him 

before this year? 

I met him last year at Maadi, 

he beat me in all three of those 

events I got silver in. He was in 

juniors last year as well. But I 

versed him this year at Maadi 

and beat him in all three events 

and he got silver in all of them. 

So it was quite funny. 

What are your goals with 

rowing? 

I think one day I do want to 

compete at Olympics but that’s 

quite a few years away and there’s 

a long road ahead. 

So you’re in your last year 

of school currently, have you 

decided what you will do when 

you finish? 

I think I’ll focus on this next 

rowing season, and make a decision 

then. 

And when you’re not rowing, 

or training or at school, what 

you like to do in your spare time? 

I do a lot of work for granddad 

in Clarkville, just helping him 

out. And hanging out with my 

brothers – I try to get to as much 

of their sport as I can, because 

they make it to mine. But between 

school and rowing, there’s 

not a lot of spare time. 

SCIRT programme on 

the home straight

Learn the boating rules 

• BY GARY MANCH, 

NAVIGATIONAL SAFETY 

OFFICER, LYTTELTON 

THIS IS probably the quietest 

time of the year on the 

recreational boating front, and 

at the risk of repeating myself 

a thousand times it becomes 

harder and harder to write 

something that you may be 

interested in. 

However, as I never have 

been known to be short of 

words, I thought this week we 

would talk about something 

close to my heart and you will 

hopefully go away thinking 

“you know he is right”. 

When I retired from my 

old job and started with the 

Harbourmaster as navigation 

safety officer, I had this vision 

that I would be out there on 

a mission to get people to 

comply with our boating rules 

and reduce deaths, injuries, 

and complaints, and it would 

be easy. 

Well, guess what, it wasn’t, 

like anyone contemplating a 

mission you need to get your 

ducks in row first and figure 

out how the campaign is going 

to commence. 

I can honestly say when I 

started that I did not realise 

Pirate’s Corner 

how many waterways and 

water users we have in Canterbury, 

our region is over 25,000 

sq km, and we have many 

lakes, foreshores and rivers 

that in excess of 11 per cent of 

New Zealand’s recreational 

boat users enjoy. 

Up to 48,000 Cantabrians 

use some form of vessel in my 

area. 

So, getting back to the 

mission in hand, my aim 

was and still is, to reduce the 

amount of deaths, injury and 

reported incidents on our 

waterways. 

However, the job is bigger 

than I thought initially, I 

have two ways to achieve this, 

education, or enforcement, research 

shows that in any form 

of compliance work education 

does not always work alone 

and you need an enforcement 

component to go with this. 

Enforcement can range from 

warnings to hefty fines. 

I would love to prove to the 

researchers that education can 

work alone, and this is where 

you guys and girls come in. 

Learn the boating rules, 

comply with them, then I 

won’t get complaints or people 

hurting or even worse killing 

themselves or others, it is a 

really simple solution but hard 

to achieve, as we still have 

people in everything from 

rowing skiffs to powerboats 

who either think the rules, like 

wearing lifejackets, keeping 

our speed down, do not apply 

to them, in turn putting either 

themselves and their passengers 

or crews at risk. 

I think that it’s a no-brainer, 

learn the rules and be a safe 

boat user, bloody simple 

really. 

Have a great day. 

A reader responds to 

an article two weeks 

ago in Bay Harbour 

News on the changes 

to the Wairewa/ 

Lake Forsyth 

catchment plan 

Bill Patterson – 

There are three things 

wrong with Lake Forsyth 

including Lake Ellesmere. 

1 – Too many cooks. 

2 – Failed to control the wild fowl 

who excrete far more than the stock 

over or in the lakes. No doubt stock 

excrete more on the land which is 

washed into those streams, waterways 

and rivers with the Peninsula 

having more than enough rainfall, 

besides stock spend little time at the 

lakes edge. 

3 – Can`t read the weather patterns, 

thus failing to keep the lakes 

open and give them a decent clean 

out. 

Professor Skelton is correct in 

his analysis, but has this governing 

body looked at the human effluent 

from septic tanks from Little River 

which has had a number of floods 

over the last five years, all emptying 

out into Lake Forsyth? 

Has the earthquake added 

damage to the field drains and 

Birdlings Flat for example. And 

finally what about the wild fowl that 

you frequently see grazing in large 

numbers on fields around the lake 

frontages and inland? 

A reader responds to the 

article on the new dog control 

bylaw 

Jenny Warmington – I have 

just read about these new bylaws 

where you can, or rather, can’t, take 

dogs now, in Bay Harbour News. 

I think they are just ridiculous – 

what it actually says is that you can’t 

take your dog anywhere now. I live 

on Banks Peninsula and we take 

our small dog with us everywhere. 

He can be leashed if need be, but 

he does no damage, chases nothing 

or no one, just enjoys being out and 

about with us. 

This is a very unfriendly dog 

country we live in. 

If the dog is under complete control 

and you pick up after him/her 

then what is the problem? 

Overseas, notably the United 

Kingdom where we come from, you 

can take your dog absolutely everywhere. 

And everyone loves it. 

And NZ calls itself an animal loving 

country. I don’t think so.

Dog sled statue to be unveiled 

• By Mary Jamieson, Lyttelton 

Lions Club secretary 

WHAT FUNNY weather it 

has been – some days the sun 

has been shining and then 

there has been a hailstorm. 

It is also very cold. So 

different from when I was 

recently walking through 

the Botanical Gardens with 

the Lyttelton Walking Group 

admiring the displays of 

daffodils and enjoying the 

early spring sunshine. 

Lyttelton Lions are running 

a barbecue next Sunday so I 

am keeping my fingers 

crossed that the 

lovely spring weather 

returns. 

On Saturday, 

October 1, at 2.30pm 

there will be an 

unveiling of a bronze 

sled dog statue in Albion 

Square. 

This was commissioned by 

the New Zealand Antarctic 

Society’s Canterbury branch to 

celebrate Lyttelton’s links with 

the Antarctic. 

Mark Whyte 

sculpted it and a 

competition was 

held to name the 

dog, and it was given 

the name Hector by 

a local student. 

Lyttelton Lions were very 

happy to support this and I 

am really looking forward 

to seeing Hector in his new 

home. 

We are always looking for 

new members in our club. If 

you are the sort of person who 

enjoys making new friends, 

having a social life and most 

importantly giving back to 

your community, why not 

think about getting in touch 

for a chat. 

Our president can be 

reached on 384 6124 or 027

Local Automotive Business Takes On New Direction 

Geographic and demographic changes in the 

east of the city have led to many businesses 

shifting with many people needing to find new 

service providers. 

It is nice to know that some businesses are still 

there and one example is Gainsborough Auto. 

They have a long established history of providing 

automotive repairs for people living or working 

in the east. 

This business, which has been based on its 

existing site for many years, recently came under 

new management and with it a new direction 

has been set to serve the growing needs of its 

customers. 

New manager, Chris Low and Office Manager, 

Tracey Sheehan have been working on initiatives 

to take the business through this transitional time 

so a more diverse range of automotive repairs 

can be delivered. Their aim is to ensure that a 

consistently high level of reliable automotive 

repairs and friendly service is offered to 

customers at all times. 

Historically, Gainsborough Auto has had a 

reputation for providing the complete package. 

Their experienced and skilled team can handle 

any automotive repair or servicing job, taking 

away any need to travel into or across town to 

have a particular repair carried out. 

“Whether it’s the teenager’s manual Honda or 

the family sedan we can repair them, including 

European and BMW. We have the experience, 

expertise, technology and facilities to look after 

any make or model of motor vehicle, including 

diesels,” advises Tracey. 

Their workshop has the latest diagnostic scan 

tools that read dashboard faults, along with other 

equipment such as their brake testing and rolling 

road machine which simulates a car driving on 

the road. They also have a transmission flush 

machine along with an air conditioning service 

that will flush out the system, cleaning out all the 

vents while sprucing up the carpets and seats so 

only clean fresh air comes out when you turn on 

the air conditioning. 

Located in a heavy commercial area, 

Gainsborough Auto also repair light commercial 

and service fleet vehicles for many major 

businesses based nearby, while also taking care 

of smaller repairs such as fixing the trailer. They 

also carry out Warrant of Fitness inspections and 

sell a full range of tyres, fit tyres and carry out 

puncture repairs. 

If needing wheels while your vehicle is being 

serviced, then a loan car is available and if 

choosing to wait, there is a comfortable, warm 

and welcoming waiting room complete with 

coffee machine, washroom and a friendly smile. 

Gainsborough Auto is particularly handy for 

people living in the south east whether in 

Bromley, South Brighton, Ferrymead, Mount 

Pleasant, Redcliffs or Sumner. 

To book in your vehicle for a WOF or repairs, give 

the friendly team at Gainsborough Auto a call 

on 03 384 4957. They are located at 281 Dyers 

Road, on the corner of Dyers Road and Francella 

Street, right next to Dyers’ Road ITM in Bromley.

Lifesavers take silver 

at world champs 

• By Fraser Walker-Pearce 

TOP FEELING: Seb Johnson (second from left) with team 

mates Zac Reid, Lewis Clareburt and Hamish Miller after 

taking out silver in the Oceanman Relay. 

SUMNER’S SEB Johnson and 

coach Jonelle Quane came close 

to earning world champion 

status when the Junior Black Fins 

finished second at the Lifesaving 

World Championships. 

The biannual event was held in 

the Netherlands over the weekend, 

with New Zealand’s senior 

team, the Black Fins, winning 

the world title on Monday. 

The championship is the 

largest international lifesaving 

competition in the world. 

The senior squad won the 

national teams’ title for the third 

time in a row after first prising 

the title from Australia in Adelaide 

in 2012, and then winning 

again in France in 2014. 

Competitors earned points 

depending on their placing in 

each event. The junior team 

finished with 735. But their rivals 

Australia ended up trumps with 

926. Italy finished third on 546 

points. 

Johnson’s competition was 

highlighted by strong performances 

throughout. 

He was part of the team that 

won gold in the tube rescue and 

silver in the Oceanman Relay. 

Quane was head coach of the 

Junior Black Fins during the 

competition, and said the breakthrough 

performance of captain 

Hamish Miller helped the team 

along the way. 

“Team captain Hamish Miller 

led the team from every possible 

angle and was relentless,” she 

said. 

“His performances resulted in 

two individual bronze medals in 

the men’s board race, Oceanman 

race and was part of our silver 

medal [winning] Oceanman 

relay team with Seb Johnson, 

Lewis Clareburt and Zac Reid,” 

she said. 

Quane said another top performance 

came from Jamie Gedye 

in the bleach flags event, when 

she fought for third place.

• By Fraser Walker-Pearce 

NICK JONES has only taken 

part in three jet ski races – but 

has already won two, including 

one on Saturday. 

Jones, an Ohoka plumber, 

was one of nearly 40 endurance 

riders to take part in the 

Lyttelton to Akaroa event last 

weekend. 

The initial race course had to 

be modified due to 2-3m swells 

at Godley Head. It was changed 

to two laps, starting from the 

harbour to Port Levy and back 

around Quail Island to the 

finish. 

Canterbury Jet Sports Club 

president Glenn Chisholm said 

safety had to come first when 

deciding on the course. 

“It was a compromised beginning, 

but when you have 2-3m 

swells it’s just not safe for the 

support boats to be out there in 

that . . . we were looking every 

half a day, constantly monitoring 

it for health and safety. They 

still did the whole course probably 

between 40-something and 

50 minutes,” he said. 

The overall distance covered 

in the race was 78km, which 

Jones completed in 42m 31s. 

“I’m stoked. Throughout the 

SPORTS 

Ohoka plumber 

wins jet ski race 

race I kept looking around to 

see if I was actually going in the 

right direction. I was actually 

more stoked with my average 

speed through the race, which 

was about 112km/h,” Jones said. 

Mr Chisholm said the club 

was given the choice on whether 

to run the original planned 

event, but went with the safe 

option so no one was injured. 

“The coastguard gave us that 

responsibility. They were happy 

for us to run because their boat 

can handle it, but I was more 

concerned for our support 

boats,” he said. 

“There were no injuries, we 

had one ski blow up, but they 

are machines, they do that. It 

was the only two stroke there.” 

The club is now moving into 

their summer season and will 

be hosting events around the 

city, including races at Lake 

Roto Kohatu, Harewood, and 

New Brighton.

The 3 Step Plan to Make 

Healthy Habits Stick 

Health and Wellness Coach Annabelle Matson gives us her 3 step 

plan on how to make healthy habit stick. Add, modify and delete, 

it’s as easy as ABC 

When it comes to eating 

habits and making 

improvements to our 

health in general, trying 

to change absolutely everything about 

our lifestyle overnight, very rarely 

works. We often think: “if I can’t eat / 

do things perfectly, I shouldn’t bother 

at all”. As a recovering perfectionist I 

totally get that. However this clearly 

doesn’t support success. It just keeps us 

stuck right where we are, on the dieting 

roller coaster, never seeing results for 

the long term. 

I always say to my clients, “overtime 

not overnight”. We want to do things 

gradually, because that’s what results in 

permanent change. Why weight loss and 

many health programs often don’t work, 

is because we go from eating whatever 

we want, to restricting everything. 

So instead of drastically restricting 

everything, use my 3 step tool – add, 

modify and delete. 

A: Pick one thing you want to add 

Your Local 

Friendly 

Dental 

Team 

B: Pick one thing you want to modify 

C: Pick one thing you want to delete 

For example: 

Add: A morning meditation to centre 

you for the day. 

Modify: Refined sugar intake. Alcohol 

is a huge source of sugar – so instead of 

drinking during the week, stick to a few 

just on the weekends. 

Delete: Eating after 8pm.

Commit to the add, modify, delete plan for 30 days. Once that all becomes a habit – 

start a new add, modify, delete plan. 

When you do steps incrementally like that, it creates new habits. You won’t feel 

overwhelmed and it feels really manageable. Like magic, it all starts to become a 

lifestyle that you LOVE and that are you motivated to sustain.

BAY HARBOUR 

REAL ESTATE 

Birdling’s Flat – something completely different 

$179,000 

2 bedrooms | 1 bathroom | 900 m2 Land Area - Freehold Tenure 

What a fascinating property and a true reflection 

of the vendor’s vision and hard work. The vendors 

have turned this bare piece of land into something 

quite special. They have fully fenced this level 900m2 

property, then proceeded to add so much value. 

Two very tidy caravans, roofed and with indoor/ 

outdoor living areas attached. Wonderful BBQ and 

entertaining areas, numerous useful sheds and a 

container. Mains water and power, shower-room and 

bathroom, composting toilet, very nicely planted and 

landscaped and the quality of the builders work is 

superb. Cleverly done so there is still room to build 

a house if desired and the icing on the cake is that it 

comes fully furnished and decorated, nice artwork, 

seating, BBQ, quad bike. Six wheel Argo ATV, jet-ski, 

aluminium boat and outboard etc etc. Just move in 

and enjoy this unique property, such good value here.

Paul Lonsdale Councillor for Heathcote 

Consistency will be Essential

Paul Lonsdale 

Co 

I am a Cantabrian who is independent and not aligned to any 

political party or local candidate group. 

I am married to Denise and together we 

have three children. 

I have served three years as Councillor 

for the Hagley Ferrymead ward, which is 

arguably one of the most affected in the 

city. It has been a very busy time with 

a lot of planning and decision-making 

around building resilience for the future 

and working closely with the affected 

communities on how we achieve that. 

Throughout this term I have always been 

accessible even during times of heavy 

workload. This has enabled me to develop 

an intimate knowledge and understanding 

of all the local issues. 

With the changes to the wards boundaries, 

I am standing for the new Heathcote ward. 

I am committed to the area being at the 

I now carry a large 

amount of knowledge 

setting me 

apart from other 

candidates. 

early planning stages of building our new 

family home in Heathcote. 

I came into council knowing that this term 

would not be easy but wanted to be a 

part of working with the community to 

develop a new future for this city. We have 

worked hard to get our finances in order 

and we have worked hard to build back 

trust with the government. Most of all we 

have worked hard to build back trust with 

our community. We have come a long way 

from when I took office three years ago. 

Over this term I have been involved in all 

aspects of the council and its subsidiaries. I 

believed this necessary to give me a better 

understanding of how the council works 

and the ability to influence their direction. 

I now carry a large amount of knowledge 

setting me apart from other candidates. 

Safer Christchurch 

I have a bold vision that Christchurch is the safest city in New Zealand 

I remember the day Christchurch first 

received accreditation as an international 

safe city; at the time I was the manager of the 

Central City and a big part of my role was to 

help reduce the anti-social behaviors. 

I worked with a number of agencies including 

the police and the city council to reduce inner 

city issues and just prior the earthquakes 

the police were about to release their latest 

statistics highlighting we had radically 

reduced anti social behavior. 

Christchurch was the first large city in New 

Zealand to receive safe city accreditation 

from the World Health Organization and this 

accreditation helped dispel the popular belief 

- fueled by the media - that Christchurch was 

an unsafe city. 

When I became chair of Safer Christchurch 

in March last year I was disappointed to see 

that our safe city accreditation had been 

suspended. 

I worked with our staff and strategic partners 

to refresh our safe city strategy which 

we completed June this year along with 

regaining our accreditation. 

Having the feeling of safety is a basic human 

right so I have a bold vision that Christchurch 

is the safest city in New Zealand 

When you have strong communities you have 

a strong city so this strategy aims to ensure 

that all community members, including those 

who are disadvantaged and vulnerable feel 

safe and welcome and are able to participate 

in city life. 

To achieve this we have identified some key principles and 

priorities to get us to our goal: 

Priority 1: Proactive partnerships that 

have a shared commitment to a safe city 

Priority 2: Reducing and preventing 

injuries 

Injury in New Zealand both intentional 

and unintentional is the leading cause of 

death among people aged 1 – 34 

Priority 3: Reducing and preventing the 

incidence and effects of crime 

We will to work with key stakeholders 

to identify and respond to crime, fear of 

crime, and antisocial behavior issues. 

Priority 4: Enhancing safety on our roads 

Between 2010 and 2014, 53% of crashes 

in Christchurch occurred at intersections. 

So we will support the implementation 

of the road safety action plan for 

Christchurch city. 

Priority 5: Building in safety 

We have the best opportunity to build in 

safety while we are rebuilding our roads, 

footpaths and buildings. This will support 

making the city and neighborhoods 

vibrant, safe and inclusive.

Experience. Passion. Commitment. 

Our Waterways 

I want to see us continue to improve 

the quality of our waterways. 

Because good water quality is essential for 

supporting ecosystems, recreation, cultural values 

and the health of our residents. 

Through the development of our long-term plan 

we have budgeted for upgrading our wastewater 

and stormwater infrastructure, which will reduce 

contaminants getting into our waterways. 

However, we need to continue our programme of 

waterway and wetland plantings and also working 

with community groups and others to protect our 

waterways. 

We need to harness 

modern technology to help us 

monitor not only our water but 

also our air quality. 

When I get time I like to get out and help support 

the local groups like the Mahoe-nui bush restoration 

project and local rubbish cleanups. It is a great way 

for me to help out and get some exercise in. 

However, we also need to continue to build the 

knowledge of our waterways through monitoring. 

To do this, Christchurch joined other major New 

Zealand cities as partners in the NEC, which aims to 

enable New Zealand to become a smart nation. 

We need to harness modern technology to help us 

monitor not only our water but also our air quality. 

This term’s involvements 

Over this term I have been involved in all aspects of the 

council and its subsidiaries. 

This has not only given me a greater understanding of the council and the 

community, it has also given me a huge amount of knowledge to assist the 

community to drive progress, which sets me apart from other candidates. 

I am also on six boards and all my directors’ fees have been donated to the

come with those appointments.

Key Pieces of work 

this term: 

Chair of Safer Christchurch 

Interagency Group. 

The city had lost its safe city 

accreditation so when I took over 

chairing the group in March last year; 

my goal was to regain accreditation as 

an International Safe City. I achieved 

that result in June this year along with 

a refreshing Safer Christchurch Strategy 

and remodeling the governance group. 

Worked with the building 

control group to help 

formulate what is now 

known as the “end to end” 

process. 

I was involved in setting up the pilot 

programme, which now has become 

synonymous with best practice. 

Chair of the Capital 

Endowment Fund Working 

Group. 

Looking at ways to maximize the $100 

million dollar fund’s returns to the 

council. 

Reforming the delivery and 

management of the Council 

Social Housing 

with the set up of the housing 

management board through to 

establishing a new trust to take over 

and manage the councils social 

housing. This has been a massive piece 

of work of which the value cannot 

be underestimated as currently the 

portfolio losses $680k a month. 

Worked closely with the 

Christchurch Adventure Park 

to find a funding source so Christchurch 

did not lose that opportunity. The 

council committed to investing $2m into 

the project late last year.

Annual Plan 

Through this last annual plan process I was 

very pleased to see that our careful hand and 

conservative approach in developing and setting 

the long term plan direction has provided some 

good news for Christchurch. 

We have enabled lower borrowing, lower rate increases and a delay 

in the capital release programme. 

This will give us time to consider more innovative ways we can fund 

our future borrowing to ensure we bounce forward as a city. 

These changes are largely due to a higher growth rate than was 

expected within the city’s rating base, an $80m greater insurance 

payout than was budgeted for through the long term plan. 

Obviously the major contributor to this good news was the 

insurance settlement prior to Christmas delivering an $80m 

decrease to what we had budgeted for in our long-term plan. 

I am also pleased to see we are taking a more realistic approach to 

our capital programme, but I am also mindful that we have a lot of 

work to do in this space and if there were ways we could speed this 

up that we would look for ways to make this happen. 

We need to continue to streamline our processes and prudent 

financial management of our operational expenditure so we can 

deliver greater savings without the loss of quality of service. 

We often get complaints about the state of our road-side gardens, 

weeds in road median strips, so I want to see the council hold our 

contractors accountable and ensure they are delivering what we are 

paying for. 

This will give us time to 

consider more innovative ways we can 

fund our future borrowing to ensure we 

bounce forward as a city. 

Obesity Issue 

We need to get more people 

walking, cycling and using 

public transport. 

I was astonished to learn that New 

Zealand has one of the worst obesity 

rates in the world. We need to get our 

people walking and cycling more to help 

reduce this obesity issue. 

The proportion of residents who believe 

we are a cycle friendly city has fallen 

from a low 54% to a ridiculously low 

27%. So we need to stay committed to 

building our major and local cycle ways. 

We need to commit to completing 

leisure walkways like the coastal 

pathway and get on and repair our 

footpaths and create pedestrian areas 

that are safe and attractive to walk 

around. 

We also need to assist getting 

commuters out of their cars and onto 

our public transport system. However, 

we need to make sure that our public 

transport system is efficient, safe and 

dependable. 

If we don’t – there will be 70,000 more 

car trips through the city on a daily basis. 

Our roads just will not be able to cope. 

I have observed 

Paul Lonsdale mature as a City 

Councillor since he was elected. 

He is thoughtful in debates and 

a good listener. He is a strong 

advocate for his constituents and 

I would have been delighted to 

have him as a member of any 

City Council I presided over. 

~ Garry Moore, former mayor 

of Christchurch 

Every election is important and just as important is your 

vote. The city is now halfway through its rebuild and we 

need you to provide direction, so make your vote count. 

I have served this community for three years now and 

want to continue to do so for another term. I have 

represented this community well and we have got a lot 

over the line, including funding for the Coastal Pathway, 

Scarborough Paddling Pool, Sumner Library, Museum 

and Community Centre, Redcliffs Volunteer Library, Mt 

Pleasant Community Centre and Heathcote Volunteer 

Library just to name some of the more significant 

projects. 

Some of the issues 

council should address 

in the next three years: 

• Improving the quality of our waterways 

• Get more people walking, cycling and using 

public transport 

• Reduce natural hazard risk and improve our 

ability to respond 

• Increase our sense of belonging 

• Revitalise our central city 

• Speed up repair of our roads and footpaths 

• Continue to strengthen local communities 

by empowering them with a hand up, not a 

hand out approach to the way we deliver local 

outcomes 

• Reduce the need for rate rises through 

prudent financial management
