Slow progress on crime camera 

• By Annabelle Dick 

DON’T EXPECT progress on 

security cameras to deter crime 

in Lyttelton anytime soon. 

That’s the outcome of Bay 

Harbour News inquiries into 

calls from Lyttelton residents for 

better security and more policing 

after what they say has been a 

spate of burglaries and thefts. 

At an August Lyttelton-Mt 

Herbert Community Board 

meeting, residents Paul Dietsche 

and Brett Partel said residents 

wanted to see more resources 

and enforcement after hearing 

concerns from others. 

The board said it would 

investigate installing a mobile 

camera which would be funded 

by the board’s discretionary 

fund. 

However, there is no money 

left in the fund, and now the 

issue has been left for the 

incoming Banks Peninsula 

Community Board to deal with 

after Saturday’s elections. 

“It seems security and safety 

in Lyttelton is at the mercy of 

budgets,” Mr Dietsche said. 

He’s also worried that crime 

isn’t being addressed effectively, 

as there are too few police 

officers, community watch 

volunteers and resources. 

He said people find it difficult 

to contact Lyttelton police as the 

station operates from 8am-5pm 

Monday to Friday. 

Five officers and a supervisor 

are based at Lyttelton and police 

from Christchurch cover the area 

outside of the hours above. 

When the police aren’t 

on the beat, City to Sumner 

Community Watch volunteers 

patrol Lyttelton about six days a 

week, twice a day. 

Community watch chairman 

Colin Morris said although 

people might not notice them, 

the police and community 

watch do have a presence in 

Lyttelton. 

“We have a damn good 

working relationship with 

Lyttelton police. I see Senior 

Sergeant Dave Knowles once 

a week and have a chat about 

what’s been going on. I relay that 

back to the people going out on 

patrol,” he said. 

However, Mr Morris said 

enforcement could be more 

effective in deterring crime 

if there were more volunteers 

patrolling Lyttelton. 

Senior Sergeant Knowles 

declined to be interviewed by 

Bay Harbour News, requesting 

written questions about the 

crime issues which he would 

answer when he returned to the 

station later this week. 

City to Sumner Community 

Watch is asking for residents to 

help deter burglars and thieves 

by joining the patrol. 

You can phone Mr Morris on 

384 1116 

HAVE YOUR SAY: Do you 

think there should be more 

enforcement and security 

in Lyttelton to deter crime?

EDITOR’S 

DESK 

Inside 

News........................................3-7 

IT SEEMS the police don’t want to 

give too much away on the crime 

camera issue in Lyttelton. 

The call for CCTV cameras is 

like a football at the moment – it’s 

being passed between the local 

community board and city council. 

Residents want a crime camera 

which can move from point to 

point in Lyttelton, with a sign in 

the port saying something like 

‘Crime camera operating’ to let the 

burglars and thieves know they 

could be being watched. 

We tried to get comment from 

Lyttelton police for today’s Bay 

Harbour News. They said they were 

too busy - chasing burglars, we 

hope. But you can read on page 1 

what others are saying, and our 

inquiries suggest progress on a 

much-needed crime camera is 

painstakingly slow. But Lyttelton 

police continue to shy away from 

answering questions.

False hope claim over LIM reports 

Outrage over 

council 

rejection 


CHRISTCHURCH Coastal 

Residents United say the 

city council gave them “false 

hope” when agreeing to 

collaborate on altering coastal 

hazard information on land 

information memorandum. 

Mayor Lianne Dalziel met 

with the group last month and 

asked them to work with the 

city council on changing hazard 

information on the flawed 

Coastal Hazards Assessment 

Report. 

The group provided the city 

council with an alternative 

notation for LIMs after 

seeking legal advice but 

city council chief executive 

Dr Karleen Edwards 

rejected it. 

CCRU spokesman Dr 

Darrell Latham (right) 

is outraged that the city 

council still won’t listen 

to residents’ pleas after 

they agreed to engage with the 

community. 

Dr Tim Lindley 

For Heathcote Community Board 

“For communities 

you’ll love to live in” 

@timlindleychch 

Authorised by Tim Lindley, 28 Patmos Place, Mount Pleasant, Christchurch, 8081 

UNSOUND: More than 18,000 homes along Christchurch’s 

and Banks Peninsula’s coastlines have inaccurate coastal 

hazard information on their property reports. 

“It’s an abandonment of the 

democratic process,” he said. 

Instead, Ms Dalziel will write 

to the Minister for Local 

Government, Peseta Sam 

Lotu-Iiga, and the Minister 

for the Environment, 

Nick Smith, about the difficulties 

the city council’s 

facing under legal obligations 

to include hazard 

information on LIMs. 

Ms Dalziel wants a period of 

“safe harbour” for future LIMs

councils and residents could 

discuss notations before they 

were put on property records. 

Dr Latham believes it was a 

ploy from the city council to 

collaborate with residents so 

media would get off their back. 

“We feel we were somewhat 

set up because things were getting 

a little hot for the mayor. 

The collaborative discussion 

hasn’t resulted in the council 

listening at all. We were excited 

and we felt it was going to be a 

sincere, genuine, collaborative 

process but that hasn’t proved 

to be the case,” he said. 

The original Tonkin & Taylor 

Coastal Hazards Assessment 

Report found 18,000 coastal 

homes were at risk of erosion 

and flooding and that information 

has gone on homeowner’s 

LIM reports. 

The city council legally 

must put the information on 

property records and that has 

devalued coastal homes, hiked 

insurance rates and made it difficult 

to get mortgages. 

The report was peer reviewed 

and the city council was urged 

to remove the information 

and undertake more research 

because it could be legally 

unsound. 

The notations were tweaked, 

but it still states those homes 

are at risk from coastal hazards. 

“How can Christchurch have 

faith in a chief executive and a 

mayor who fail to listen to what 

is being said in a peer reviewed 

report?” Dr Latham said. 

All city councillors voted to 

seek a further peer review of the 

original report in a meeting last 

week. 

LIM notations will be revised 

as new information is received 

by the city council, but hazard 

notations will remain on property 

reports until then.

CONSENT SOUGHT 

Kidsfirst has reapplied for a 

resource consent to build a 

kindergarten on McCormacks Bay 

Rd. Kidsfirst initially applied for 

resource consent in June to run a 

50-person early childhood centre 

next to the Mt Pleasant Community 

Centre but were declined due to 

a city council mistake. A number 

of homeowners are opposing the 

consent as it blocks their sea view 

and they believe it is too dangerous 

to build a centre on the plot of 

land. The hearing has been set for 

October 18. 

BLESSING FOR CENTRE 

The new Mt Pleasant Community 

Centre will be blessed prior to its 

official opening on October 14. 

Members of the public are invited 

to the blessing ceremony at 7am 

where breakfast will follow. The 

centre will be offically opened later 

that evening with a ceremony but 

numbers are restricted due to 

space. 

TUNNEL MAINTENANCE 

Lyttelton Tunnel will undergo 

maintenance work next week. The 

NZTA work will restrict transport 

through the tunnel and traffic will 

be down to a single lane. Dangerous 

goods will also not be allowed 

through the tunnel during this period. 

Work will go ahead between 

October 13, 9pm, until 3am on 

October 14. Delays are expected.

News 

Students get 

challenge boost 

A GROUP of Linwood College 

students have won a huge boost to 

their Coast to Coast race training 

in the lead up to next year’s event. 

Linwood’s team of nine recently 

won the Kathmandu Coast to 

Coast schools’ base camp academy 

package. 

The package includes Kathmandu 

clothing, Salomon shoes, 

race entry and a personalised 

training programme created by 

the nine-time race winner Steve 

Gurney. 

The team, called the Coast to 

Coast Rangers, will also receive 

mentoring to support them in 

their quest to complete the endurance 

race in February next year. 

The group has been training 

together since May and can now 

look forward to a personal training 

guide from Gurney designed 

specifically for the Coast to Coast 

race. 

The prize was created after 

three Aranui High School students 

competed in this year’s race 

alongside multi-sport professionals 

like three-time event winner 

Emily Miazga, and world champion 

adventure racer Nathan 

Fa’avae. 

When February rolls around, 

only three of the nine students in 

the Coast to Coast Rangers will 

participate in the race and the 

rest will form the support crew. 

Road repair project concern 


BLESSING: Rapaki Marae representative Kopa Lee marks the 

start of a new phase of work on Sumner Rd. 

PHOTO: CHRISTCHURCH CITY COUNCIL 

A CITY councillor believes 

the opening of Sumner Rd will 

come with a number of almost 

unavoidable problems. 

Work to mitigate geotechnical 

risks around Crater Rim Bluffs, 

at the top of Sumner Rd began 

last week as the city council 

opened the project with a blessing 

and planting ceremony on 

Thursday. 

But city councillor Paul Lonsdale 

said when the port corridor 

opens again it could create a 

number of frustrated residents. 

“Sumner, Redcliffs and Mt 

Pleasant haven’t had port traffic 

for some time. I think they were 

used to having the traffic that 

it didn’t seem like an issue. But 

when it’s reintroduced and it 

hasn’t been there for six years, 

there may be a change in the way 

people view it,” Cr Lonsdale said. 

He also said the route will be a 

target for boy racers who are also 

prevalent around Governors Bay 

and the Port Hills. 

“Boy racers are a bit of an issue 

along the esplanade and Sumner 

Rd and there’s noise that comes 

with that. We need to think 

about what we can do to mitigate 

those issues and we need to 

discuss that within the community,” 

Cr Lonsdale said. 

This is the first stage in works 

to re-open Sumner Rd and work 

will include source rock deconstruction. 

Contractors will scale the upper 

reaches of the Crater Rims 

Bluffs, with a 400m-long, 15mwide 

catch bench at the base of 

the bluffs to protect the road 

from rockfall. 

A rock bund will also be constructed 

in Double Gully to the 

west of the Crater Rim Bluffs to 

capture rockfall from the bluffs. 

Once the work is completed, 

contractors will investigate the 

extent of the damage to retaining 

walls along the road. 

The road will then be repaired 

and reinstated. 

Sumner Rd is one of four projects 

within the Sumner-Lyttelton 

Corridor programme, which 

aims to mitigate geohazard risks

Pianos 

Inspired by old world craftsmanship and the artistry of Italian design, 

Palatino takes its name from a central hill in Rome where ancient emperors 

built their palaces. Palatino builds pianos based on the pursuit of “Quality 

not Quantity.” With this mission in mind, we have imported the highest 

quality components from around the world. 

Canadian white spruce is imported for soundboards, Roslau strings from 

Germany; beech wood from France for grand piano rims and Renner 

hammers from Germany on the Concert Series pianos. These are all 

components found in some of the most expensive pianos in the world. 

Play one and see for yourself – from design to construction, from the 

studio to the concert hall, Palatino is truly a World Class Piano.

Bid to beat problem parkers 

PIPE 


CITY COUNCIL enforcement 

officers may soon be seen 

more on the streets of Akaroa 

ticketing motorists and dealing 

with dogs breaching bylaws. 

The Akaroa-Wairewa Community 

Board has asked the 

city council to look at providing 

more officers to patrol and more 

frequently. 

There are no officers based in 

Akaroa. They travel to and from 

Akaroa but the community 

board says it is too little. 

Parking breaches have become 

a common occurrence as people 

are disregarding parking limit 

signs. 

Just Souvenirs owner Graeme 

Tomer said he has two parking 

10min signs outside his store 

that are often abused, but the 

cars aren’t ticketed. 

“We don’t see much enforcement 

at all really – definitely 

not on a regular basis. I can’t 

remember when I last saw an 

officer,” he said. 

From September 14, 2015, 

to September 14, 2016, the city 

council has issued 14 infringement 

notices for parking offences. 

Of these, four infringement 

notices have been issued for the 

time limit. 

Akaroa-Wairewa Community 

Board member Janis Haley said 

the lack of enforcement was an 

issue. 

“There used to be someone 

here who’d monitor parking but 

he’s not here anymore. Some 

times some of these areas need 

monitoring and no matter what 

signs you put up parking just 

gets abused,” she said. 

The board wants to see more 

locally-based officers on the 

ground with the ability to issue 

multiple enforcement warrants. 

That would include dog owners 

who breached bylaws. 

Community board chairwoman 

Pam Richardson said 

having locally-based officers 

makes more sense than having 

an officer commute from 

Christchurch. 

“Rather than having an 

enforcement officer on the road 

running back and forward surely 

it must be far easier to look 

at an innovative way of doing it 

and that is local enforcement,” 

ON GUARD: 

Akaroa could 

see more city 

council officers 

wandering the 

streets issuing 

fines for multiple 

offences.

SLOAN 

she said. 

The board has asked city 

council staff to see if there’s 

any possibility of officers being 

based locally. 

Crime has also been an issue 

in Akaroa. Senior Constable 

Anita Osborne addressed the 

community board about police 

wanting a surveillance camera 

installed in the township. 

The community board is also 

talking to city council staff 

about this matter. 

In Brief 

REPAIRS 

A section of road at 1 Simeon 

Quay will be closed to replace a 

stormwater pipe. Traffic will be 

detoured left on to Godley Quay 

and right on to Voelas Rd for 

around two weeks. 

ONE LANE FOR ROAD 

Evans Pass Rd above Sumner 

is down to one lane while a 

retaining wall is repaired. SCIRT 

is undertaking the work and 

temporary traffic lights will be in 

place. Repairs are expected to take 

until the end of the year. 

ARMED ROBBERY 

A Woolston dairy worker was left 

shaken after three people robbed 

the Night ‘n Day store on Ferry Rd 

at 5am, Saturday. Police are looking 

for three people who entered the 

dairy with weapons, including a 

hammer and machete. The thieves 

stole cigarettes and cash. This is 

the second time the dairy has been 

robbed in the last two months.

Council changes its mind 

over Main Rd footpath 


RESIDENTS AND parents 

concerns about pedestrian 

safety at Moa Bone Cave have 

convinced the city council to 

investigate if a footpath could be 

re-introduced on Main Rd. 

The Hagley-Ferrymead Community 

Board asked the city 

council to reinstate a pathway 

near the Main Rd-McCormacks 

Bay Rd intersection earlier this 

year, but the city council said 

rockfall risk is too high. 

The city council has now backtracked, 

saying improvements 

can be looked at, but recommended 

a reassessment of the 

geotechnical risk of the rocks 

above Moa Bone Cave once the 

current mitigation works are 

complete. 

“We were hoping at this point 

that the council could say that we 

could put a footpath in but the 

fact they’re willing to re-look at 

it is really positive,” community 

board chairwoman Sara Templeton 

said. 

If the level of risk has reduced 

enough to be acceptable for pedestrians, 

staff will undertake an 

investigation of the options available 

to construct a new footpath 

HAZARDOUS: A new pathway may be rebuilt along Main Rd 

near Moa Bone Cave.

on the south side of Main Rd. 

“It would be fantastic if the 

reassessment allows a footpath to 

be reinstated alongside the cave 

and I really hope that that is the 

eventual outcome,” Ms Templeton 

said. 

There is no pathway on the 

Moa Bone Cave side of Main Rd, 

which means pedestrians have 

to cross a busy road to access the 

pathway on the north side. 

Redcliffs School principal Rose 

McInerney said the intersection 

is a real worry for her and she 

wants her pupils to be able to 

walk to school without crossing 

Main Rd. 

“It’s such an incredibly busy 

road and a lot of our students live 

around that way so we’re really 

hopeful they’ll put a footpath 

back in,” she said. 

A pedestrian crossing from 

Moa Bone Cave to the north 

side of Main Rd has also been 

proposed if a footpath can’t be 

reinstated. 

The pathway has been out of 

action since the February 22, 

2011, earthquake rendered it 

unusable. 

The new Linwood-Central- 

Heathcote Community Board 

will get the information from 

staff once the work is complete. 

ON THE WATER: Black Cat Cruises welcomes a number of 

visitors on board each year to view and swim with Hector’s 

dolphins. 

Akaroa top of cruise list 

• By Bridget Rutherford 

AKAROA HAS been named 

one of the top five cruise 

destinations in Australia and 

New Zealand at the inaugural 

Cruisers’ Choice Destination 

Awards. 

The awards are based on 

customer feedback submitted on 

the Cruise Critic website over 

the past year. 

Akaroa came fourth, following 

Sydney, Tauranga and 

Auckland. 

Dunedin was fifth. 

Akaroa District Promotions 

executive officer Hollie Hollander 

said the awards were a 

great endorsement for Akaroa. 

In their feedback, cruisers 

noted they enjoyed Akaroa’s 

scenery, people and history. 

Akaroa welcomed about 

124,000 cruise ship visitors in 

the 2015/16 season. 

“Cruise ships have become a 

vital part of our economy over 

the past five years and have 

helped keep the cruise industry 

alive and well for Canterbury,” 

Ms Hollander said. 

“Businesses have really supported 

the influx of visitors by 

offering a great range of activities 

and products. The cafes and 

restaurants have employed 

more staff and locals have been 

fantastic ambassadors for the 

town”.

Fixing State Highway 75 

In the lead up to the local body elections, Bay Harbour 

News is asking candidates their views on topical issues 

within the community. This week, we ask Akaroa 

subdivision candidates running for the Banks Peninsula 

Community Board what they think should be done to 

make State Highway 75 safer for tourists as well as ease 

traffic flow for residents using the road.

Traffic on State Highway 

75 generally for all road 

users is like every other 

road in New Zealand. 

It does, however, have 

a bottle neck between 

Little River and Akaroa. 

This section of road 

requires two things to 

improve the traffic flow 

and frustrations we have 

from slow traffic and 

tourists who are unsure 

how to handle New Zealand driving conditions. 

Firstly, there needs to be better signage with clear 

instructions, ie to pull over and let traffic pass 

and, secondly, it is badly in need of more lay-by 

and passing areas. Solution: spend money on 

improvements to the road on the hills, council 

needs to lobby Government to make this happen.

Sumner take early wickets 

MERIVALE-PAPANUI will 

resume on Saturday with a lead 

of 33 against Sumner in the 

opening match of the senior A 

two-day cricket competition. 

Sumner bowled Merivale out 

for 51 in the first innings after a 

spirited session from Brendon 

Wellington on Saturday. 

Sumner were then dismissed 

for 100 in their first turn at 

the crease before taking three 

wickets and heading to stumps 

with Merivale on 82/3, 33 runs 

ahead. 

Getting underway at Edgar 

MacIntosh Park, in Papanui, 

Sumner lost the toss and were 

put in the field first. 

The new ball combination of 

Dean Smith and Wellington 

made an immediate impression 

taking six early wickets to have 

the hosts reeling at 28/6. 

Andrew Bird and Jonny 

Percasky came on and continued 

to apply pressure on the 

Merivale batsmen, dismissing 

the hosts for 51. 

Wellington took 4/25, Bird 

was impressive taking 3/11 and 

Smith handily chipped in with 

2/14. 

In reply, Sumner were stunned 

early with the loss of three 

wickets to be 17/3. 

Sumner’s new skipper Johnny 

Beveridge top scored for his 

team with 24. 

There were some small 

partnerships formed but wickets 

continued to fall and Sumner

were all out for 100. 

Sumner returned to the field 

with 28 overs left in the day to 

bowl at Merivale. Wellington 

picked up an early wicket to 

take his fifth of the match and 

Dan Vann chimed in to take 

the second wicket before a solid 

partnership formed between 

Eddie Commons (23 not out) 

and Mitchell Dimond (40) to 

take them to 76/3 when Dimond 

fell. Merivale will resume batting 

on 82/3 at noon, Saturday. 

• Aaron Lock, 

surf coach, 

Sumner 

IT’S BEEN a 

tough two weeks 

of dreary easterly 

weather and 

average looking 

surf. Prior to that 

we had a great start to spring 

with plenty of south swell and 

lots of fun northerly swell days 

too. The sand banks are in pretty 

good shape around the local 

beaches so whenever there has 

been a bit of swell, the waves 

have been forming nicely. It 

looks like we’ve flipped back into 

a westerly weather pattern again 

now which is more typical for 

this time of year. We’re now past 

the spring equinox so we should 

expect plenty of wind over the 

next month or so and lots of 

afternoon on-shores, so early 

surfs will be the key. 

The water temp is starting to 

warm up but it’s still a little cool 

at 11.5 deg C. It normally warms 

about one degree per week at this 

time of year so by Labour weekend 

we might be able to ditch the 

booties. The cold water hasn’t 

been stopping people enjoying 

the waves this winter. It’s been 

one of the busiest winters in the 

waves ever, even on the coldest 

days, it’s been packed at Taylors.

Aaron's surf report 

The Canterbury Scholastic 

Surf team is in Gisborne this 

week for the National Scholastic 

Champs. Local surfers Thomas 

Harcourt, Angus Mossman, 

Finn Brokenshire and Estella 

Hungerford are all in the team 

and have been training hard all 

winter. They’ve been looking 

forward to the pumping surf and 

warmer waters of Gissy. 

Ava Henderson was also in 

Gisborne last week competing 

in the Primary School Nationals 

where she placed third in the 

year 8 and under girls’ division. 

Sumner will be hosting the 

Canterbury Primary School 

Champs on the October 30. 

This will be the inaugural event 

and is being organising by the 

rejuvenated local club, Point Surf 

Team. It should be a fun and exciting 

event and it will be great to

Our People 

Providing welfare and a home 

Jessica Armstrong, 28, has been managing the 

Lyttelton Seafarers’ Centre with her husband 

Rob for over a year. Annabelle Dick chats to her 

about the centre’s role in the community and the 

people it serves 

So first of all, what does the 

Lyttelton Seafarers’ Centre do? 

We provide a centre for all 

seafarers, so anyone who works 

on ships or in the port and we 

give them a home away from 

home. We give them a place to 

hang out, we provide free Wi-Fi 

as well so they can contact their 

friends and family because calling 

home that is the main thing 

they want to do when they get 

off the ship. We exchange foreign 

cash into New Zealand currency 

so they can buy stuff at the 

supermarket, or whatever they 

need, because there’s no bank 

in Lyttelton. We give away free 

warm clothes . . . we’ve given 

away about 50 winter coats and 

hats and scarves. We also provide 

them with free food and drinks. 

Basically, its all of that and we 

give them someone to talk to if 

they want to talk to someone. 

How many people do you get 

coming through your doors? 

We fluctuate a lot depending 

on the amount of ships in the 

port, our maximum is about 

28 and some nights we only 

get a handful. On average we 

get about 12 people per night. 

We opened in July last year 

and we’ve served close to 3500 

people from all over the world. 

The main places they come from 

are the Philippines, Russia and 

Ukraine. 

You must have heard a lot of 

interesting stories then? 

Yes, they’re all a very different 

bunch of people and we have 

them all in at the same time so 

it makes for a very interesting 

centre. 

How many people work at the 

centre? 

We’ve got 20 regular volunteers 

at the moment and we have 

about 10 people in training who 

have just started their training. 

Everyone is a volunteer. 

What were seafarers doing 

before the centre existed? 

They used to hang out outside 

the library where there was free 

Wi-Fi but they didn’t have any 

AT WORK: Jessica Armstrong with Filipino seamen at the Lyttelton Seafarers’ Centre. 

shelter. When we first started we 

walked up the road to go and 

collect them and they were sitting 

outside in very cold temperatures 

in winter and they just 

wanted to contact home. We give 

them somewhere to be because 

there’s not a lot open in Lyttelton 

at night unless you’re a bar. 

What kind of feedback do 

you get from the seamen you 

have come in? 

They do really appreciate what 

we do and even if they do speak 

very little English they express 

it non-verbally with big smiles. 

Most of them thank us at the end 

of the night. A lot of the Filipino 

men are away from their young

Daylight Second 

by Kelly Ana Morey 

The incredible story, for the first time told in novel form, of Phar Lap, the racehorse that became 

a champion, and then a legend. And he’s done it folks ... Phar Lap first, daylight second. In a 

new novel about the Australian race horse Phar Lap, award -winning writer, Kelly Ana Morey 

recreates the short life of the gigantic chestnut gelding who became the darling of the Australian 

race tracks during the Depression years. From Timaru in New Zealand where he 

was born, to Australia where he rewrote track and race records and finally 

Mexico where he would run his last race, Daylight Second chronicles the 

death threats and attempts on Phar Lap’s life that were made before the 

running of two of the three Melbourne Cups he contested, his many 

triumphs including winning the Melbourne Cup in 1930 and the 

Agua Caliente Handicap in 1932, and finally his death in America in 

mysterious circumstances. Part richly imagined biography, part portrait 

of two marriages, Daylight Second is also the story of the people who 

knew the champion race horse as Bobbie; his trainer Harry Telford and 

beloved strapper Tommy Woodcock, and the two very different women who 

would become their wives. This extraordinary novel by one of New Zealand’s 

most audacious writers, brings to life the excitement of the track, the highs and lows of the racing 

game, and the challenges faced by urban working-class Australians between the wars. 

Basics to Brilliance 

by Donna Hay 

Australia’s bestselling cookbook author returns with a stunning new book, Basics to Brilliance 

- and a TV series tie in. Australia’s most trusted and best-selling cookbook author, Donna Hay, 

wants to take you from basics to brilliance. Donna believes that, just like anything you want to 

be good at, mastering the basics is how you build confidence. So, in this book, she’s sharing 

all her favourite, tried and true recipes - think the perfect tender steak, golden roast chicken, 

crispy pork belly, her nan’s sponge cake, and of course the fudgiest brownies! Each basic recipe 

is followed by clever variations and simple flavour change-ups, so one recipe becomes many 

and your repertoire naturally grows. Take Donna’s ‘no-fail meringue mixture’ - once mastered, 

this basic recipe can be tweaked to be turned into the perfect pavlova; divinely flavoured salted 

caramel, chocolate, rosewater and pistachio, and raspberry meringues for an elegant afternoon 

tea; or a silky smooth and tangy lemon meringue pie for a divine dessert for a dinner party. 

This is your ultimate guide to being brilliant in the kitchen! Basics to Brilliance is a luxurious 

hardback, featuring beautiful photography and featuring over 200 recipes. This is a book 

you will want to treasure forever. In 2011, Donna’s first television series - fast, fresh, simple - 

premiered on LifeStyle, garnering her a 2012 Astra award for Best New Female Personality and 

went on to air in more than 17 countries worldwide. In 2016 , Donna is returning to Foxtel with 

a brand new eight part show, Basics to Brilliance, based on this book, which will go to air in 

late May and be on repeat rotation as the book goes on sale.

away from home for seafarers 

We’re wanting to spread the 

news about who we are and 

what we do and that we’re always 

looking out for new volunteers 

because we’d like to be open 

every afternoon and every 

evening, but we’re not there yet. 

We’re open Monday to Friday 

every week in the evenings and 

every second Saturday and some 

afternoons. 

Where does the funding come 

from? 

The centre is run by a trust 

administered by Anglicans and 

Catholics. We’ve signed up with 

the Lyttelton Harbour Timebank 

to help with supplying clothes 

for the seamen. Charles Shadbolt 

from Independent Fisheries has 

made the site temporarily rentfree 

until a permanent site is 

found. The Lyttelton Port Company 

has donated some funds, 

food is supplied by the Salvation 

Army and local fundraisers help 

towards paying for necessities. 

What have some of the 

highlights been during the time 

you’ve volunteered there? 

Definitely meeting people 

from all over the world who 

live quite a difficult life in some 

respects away from friends 

and family doing difficult jobs. 

Sometimes they get treated very 

well and sometimes they don’t so 

VOLUNTEERS: Jessica Armstrong and her husband Rob on 

holiday in Asia two years ago. 

having conversations with them 

is nice. You can tell they really 

appreciate just having someone 

to talk to and sharing a little bit 

of their lives with someone. I 

love all the amazing volunteers 

because we wouldn’t be able to 

do anything without them they 

just open their hearts by doing 

this once a week or once a 

fortnight so this has been a really 

awesome experience. 

CONTACT POINT: Seafarers make calls back home to their 

families in the Philippines. 

What are your hopes for the 

future of the centre? 

My hope is that we’d be able to 

open for longer so we were there 

if people wanted to use the centre. 

So are you originally from 

Christchurch? 

Yes, I grew up in Christchurch 

and I went to Villa Maria College. 

My husband is also from 

Christchurch. We moved to 

Wellington where I did my commerce 

degree in management 

and HR and a BA in information 

systems at Victoria University. I 

stayed there for about three years 

after I finished. My partner and 

I moved back to Christchurch in 

January of last year. 

What prompted you to become 

a part of the centre? 

The centre itself is run by the 

Anglican and Catholic churches 

so when I was living in Wellington 

and was at mass on a Sunday 

they asked if someone could help 

out as a volunteer one night a 

week so I signed up for that with 

my husband for two years and 

then we moved back to Christchurch 

and became the volunteer 

managers at the Lyttelton centre. 

Did you ever see yourself getting 

involved in work like this? 

Not really. The opportunity 

just occurred . . . I didn’t predict 

something like this would happen 

and I’d be volunteering my 

time outside of work so I was out 

of the blue in that respect. People 

really needed us especially in 

Lyttelton where the centre had 

just started and they didn’t have 

anybody that had the experience 

to manage it. 

When you’re not with the 

centre, what are you doing? 

I work outside of the centre as 

well so I do software development. 

I work most of the week in 

Auckland so I travel there quite 

often. At the moment it’s about 

three days in Auckland a week 

and two days in Christchurch. 

I’m pretty busy so yeah it’s a bit 

of a challenge.

Your Local Views 

Time for reform 

Green MP Eugenie 

Sage talks about 

the importance of 

local government 

and getting involved 

in the upcoming 

election 

Congratulations and 

thank you to everyone 

who offered to serve their community by 

standing for election for the city council, 

a community board, Environment Canterbury 

or the Canterbury District Health 

Board. 

It was good to see the retiring chair of 

the Lyttelton-Mt Herbert Community 

Board, Paula Smith profiled in these 

pages recently. Local government is successful 

when elected members are well 

connected with their communities and 

the board under Paula Smith’s chairing 

has understood and effectively advocated 

for Harbour Basin residents. 

The fact that citizens value the “local” 

in local government has been obvious 

recently in the strong opposition to the 

Government’s proposed changes to local 

government law. 

The Local Government Amendment 

Bill significantly increases the powers 

of the minister and the Local Government 

Commission which the minister 

appoints. It allows the commission to 

initiate council re-organisations and 

amalgamations and impose new council 

controlled organisations on local councils 

without their agreement. The current Bill 

would enable the commission to start a 

process to merge Christchurch, Hurunui 

and Selwyn councils into an Auckland 

style super-city, even if these councils did 

not agree. 

The commission would also be able to 

force councils to transfer communityowned 

and funded assets, such as our 

water supply, to new council controlled 

organisations. The Government needs to 

bin these undemocratic law changes, not 

just pause them. 

One area where reform would be welcome 

is to change the “first past the post” 

voting system for councils to a proportional 

one such as the single transferable 

vote system. 

STV enables voters to rank candidates 

in the order they prefer. An STV system 

generally results in more women and 

more ethnic diversity among those 

elected. 

It helps ensure that all significant 

viewpoints are represented in proportion 

to their level of support among voters. It 

means all votes count towards the result 

and none are wasted. 

We have a much more diverse Parliament 

because of our proportional MMP 

voting system (with one vote for the 

electorate and one for the party). 

We use STV to elect our health board 

in Canterbury. Palmerston North, 

Porirua, Wellington and Dunedin all use 

STV for their council elections. 

It would be good to see a new city 

council promoting a local poll of 

Christchurch residents in the next term 

about changing to STV. 

Harbour clean-up views positive 


BANKS PENINSULA residents have 

weighed in on the newly-launched 

Whakaraupo/Lyttelton Harbour 

Catchment Management Plan aimed at 

cleaning up the harbour. 

Thirty-seven people participated in the 

public workshops in Governors Bay, Lyttelton 

and Diamond Harbour set up by the 

management plan facilitators. 

Charteris Bay Yacht Club safety officer 

Mike Pearson said it was positive to see 

consultation with locals who have a vested 

interest in the harbour. 

“Our club has had members sailing on 

these waters for more than 75 years and 

some of our senior members share stories 

of the unfortunate changes that have 

slowly and incrementally taken place over 

many decades. This was a great opportunity 

to make a positive contribution to an 

extremely worthwhile campaign and we 

thank the project partners for the chance 

to participate,” he said. 

Te Hapū o Ngāti Wheke, Te Rūnanga o 

Ngāi Tahu, Environment Canterbury, the 

city council, and the Lyttelton Port Company 

have joined forces to create an action 

plan to manage and restore the health of 

the harbour. 

Representatives asked attendees a number 

of questions about the issues they felt 

were facing the harbour and what can be 

done to make a difference. 

“There was a common agreement that

the health of Lyttelton Harbour is declining 

and we wanted to work as a collaborative 

to reverse this process. It was refreshing 

to be agreeing on common objectives,” 

said open water swimmer Dan Abel. 

Experts will carry out erosion assessment 

and landscape characterisation, will 

look at surface water quality, quantity and 

ecosystem health and mahinga kai and 

cultural values. 

This information received from consultation 

will feed into the development 

of the Whakaraupō/Lyttelton Harbour 

Catchment Management Plan. 

Further community meetings are 

planned for March and April to discuss 

the draft plan and a final plan is expected 

to be ready in June 2017.

CONTINUING EDUCATION 

Exciting times ahead 

for social workers 

Fiona Maurice is focused on whanau. Midway through her final year work 

placement at Child, Youth and Family, the Ara Bachelor of Social Work student 

spoke of her hopes for the future for her family and for all Māori families. 

Working for the Māori Women’s 

Welfare League, as researcher and then as 

kaiawhina, in 2011 to 2012, Fiona loved 

community work but realised she need a 

qualification to progress and be even more 

effective. Coming to Ara was, she says, “the 

best move I ever made”. 

“I’ve learnt more 

about myself and 

what my strengths are 

and I’ve realised that 

determination and 

perseverance are good 

skills to have. 

“I believe this 

qualification will give 

me more opportunities. I 

want to register as a social 

worker so that employers 

will look at me more 

seriously. 

Working for Child, Youth and Family, 

the social work agency of the Ministry of 

Social Development, “didn’t faze” Fiona. 

“I put my hand up to go there. In terms of 

learning I can link a lot of my studies, such 

as attachment theory and developmental 

theory to the work, but I am also learning 

a lot in the office about the systems and 

processes.” 

It’s an exciting time to be at CYF, she 

says. “The agency is in a transformation 

phase. They will have a new identity next 

year and new processes. To be part of that 

wave of social work is exciting.” 

Her focus is clear. “It’s whanau that’s the 

perspective I come with.” 

Proud of her heritage, she 

affiliates to Tuahiwi Marae near 

Rangiora and Nga Ruahine 

(South Taranaki tribe). It’s 

an exciting time for New 

Zealanders, she says, because 

qualifications now involve 

learning about the Treaty of 

Waitangi. “More and more 

we will see that knowledge 

in action. Most of the social 

work students want to learn 

bicultural skills, but I already 

had that.” 

Receiving the Ara Eke Panuku 

award last year and other scholarships have 

been hugely helpful and Fiona says support 

is there for other Māori students to enter 

social work – a perspective the profession 

badly needs to better respond to Māori 

clients. “There are not enough of us! Only 

three started in my first year group of 55!” 

Fiona has made it a personal challenge 

to share her story and inspire others to 

consider social work. 

Restoring McCormacks Bay 

• By Barbara Crooks, of 

Ferrymead Rotary 

ONCE A month on 

a Sunday afternoon 

Ferrymead Rotary 

members don their 

gardening gloves and 

gumboots and head for 

McCormacks Bay. 

There they join a dozen 

or so other volunteers for 

a few hours of planting 

and tidying. Their aim is 

to restore and enhance the 

bay to a level beyond its 

pre-earthquake state. 

The work is co-ordinated 

by the Avon-Heathcote 

Estuary Ihutai Trust and 

supervised by the city 

council park rangers. 

When Ferrymead Rotary 

got involved two years 

ago, the effects of the 2011 

earthquakes were still in 

evidence. The estuary had 

tilted and liquefaction 

had created new islands, 

the stream edges needed 

stones placed back on the 

banks and the locals had 

been too busy mending 

houses and businesses, 

mourning family and 

friends to do much in the 

community. 

Ferrymead Rotary has 

always been keen to get 

involved in hands-on work 

in the community. So, 

when the Avon-Heathcote 

Estuary Ihutai Trust 

asked for help, members 

HELPING HAND: Rotarians muck in at their 

monthly McCormacks Bay clean up. 

made it a club project and 

joined the restoration 

team. In June 2015, Rotary 

Neighbourhood Trust 

donated $750 towards tree 

seedlings. 

The team started pruning 

the trees, bushes, 

undergrowth and weeds 

that were not natural to 

the McCormacks Bay area. 

Park rangers tagged trees 

and bushes to be removed, 

volunteers cut and slashed. 

Flax, saltmarsh ribbon 

wood and a variety of 

trees that withstand salt 

spray and wind have been 

planted around the edges 

of the bay. 

The next stage, based 

on the Sumner side of the 

bay, is to prune, re-vegetate 

and restore the three large 

islands so that the birds 

will return. 

Tanya Jenkins, trust 

project co-ordinator, stated 

“that thanks to the dedication 

and commitment 

from Ferrymead Rotary 

members, who will be 

working closely with other 

local residents, the trust 

can now hand over the 

restoration project leaving 

it in capable hands.” 

The difference is incredible 

– everything looks as 

though it should be there. 

Plantings are growing 

where it had been bare. 

And the hope is that this 

natural planting will attract 

birds back to the area 

for shelter, roosting and 

breeding.

Each class consists of a guided 

meditation and a talk based on 

Buddhist wisdom. Classes are 

suitable for everyone. Join in any 

week, booking is not required. 

This course will help you to 

experience mental clarity and 

inner peace by meditating on 

the mind itself. Meditating on 

our own mind has many benefits 

from calming our mind and 

helping us to dissolve away distractions, 

worry and delusions, to 

improving our concentration and 

mindfulness.

REAL ESTATE 

As Is Where Is - with superb sea views 

57A Major Hornbrook Road, Mt Pleasant 

Auction Date: Thursday 13 October 2016 - unless sold prior 

3 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 1 living room | 1 office/study | 2 car-garage | 3 off-street parks | Listing # FM4992 

Set on the lower slopes of Mt Pleasant, 

just below Mt Pleasant School, this home 

offers a private sanctuary away from the 

hustle and bustle of everyday life that the 

owners have thoroughly enjoyed over the 

years. 

However, times change and the owners 

plans do not include repairing the home 

so the decision to sell has been made, 

creating a superb opportunity for you to 

fully renovate this 3 bedroom, 2 bath home 

to your taste. 

With large flowing living areas the 

renovations to the home may take you a 

little longer than planned as you are very 

likely to be distracted by the peaceful sea 

views on offer from lounge and bedrooms! 

The property also features double 

garaging (one is currently set up as a 

studio), a funky loft space that has been 

used as a study and a deck to sit out and 

enjoy the views. 

The owners have cash settled with their 

insurers so this ‘As Is Where Is’ property 

is now surplus to requirements and will 

be sold on auction day, if not sold before... 

Call today for the detailed reports available 

and to arrange a viewing or you may just 

miss out.

Transitioning skincare 

through the seasons 

Skincare expert and facialist Clemency Alice has a passion for beauty and organic 

skincare. Recently travelling to Paris and Australia to further her knowledge, she 

shares her secrets. 

the tRAnSition from summer to 

autumn can have a major impact on your 

skin’s overall condition and appearance. if 

the new season catches you unaware and 

unprepared, your skin can become very 

dry, extremely sensitive, lacklustre and 

more susceptible to breakouts. This is due 

to the change in oil flow – which was on 

an all-time high during summer – and the 

vitality of the ‘skin glow’ waning as cooler 

temperatures plummet, constricting 

blood vessels. here’s what you need to 

know to ensure your skin stays prepped 

and primped for the change of season. 

PReSeRVe youR liPid BARRieR 

if you remove this protective skin barrier 

through more aggressive methods of overcleansing 

and over-exfoliating, then the 

skin cells aren’t prepared and your skin 

becomes more vulnerable to the extreme 

temperatures and external elements of 

wind, sun and rain. A way to protect 

and maintain hydration in your skin is 

through spritzing your face after cleansing 

with a floral facial mist then locking the 

moisture in with your favourite facial oil 

or moisturiser. 

SwitCh moiStuRiSeRS 

opt for a creamier, rich texture in 

your moisturiser that has antioxidant, 

super skin-boosting ingredients. Select 

moisturisers that contain hyaluronic acid 

(skin plumping and hydrating), vitamin 

C (antioxidant and uV-protecting 

properties), shea butter (moisturising 

and protecting), and rose (softening, 

anti-inflammatory, hydrating). And for 

those with oilier skins, opt for a balancing 

facial oil with lavender (restorative 

and calming) and jojoba (balancing to 

the acid mantle, protecting and antiinflammatory). 

PRoteCt youR Skin 

Just because summer is a distant dream, 

keep applying a chemical-free SPF daily, 

and opt for a seperate sun-care product 

with a minimum of SPF30 rather than 

relying on sun protection from your 

foundation. 

inSide And out 

Beauty and skin health can come from 

within: 

• Ensure you drink plenty of water. 

• Drink organic green tea (helps 

prevent tewl – trans-epidermal water 

loss). 

• Eat seasonal fruit and vegetables. 

• Drink green smoothies. 

• Boost your intake of essential 

fatty acids. 

• Go for a brisk walk amongst 

nature to 

revive your autumnal ‘glow’. 

• Maintain your skin sparkle with 

restorative beauty sleep.
