EXCITING AND humbling.
That’s the reaction from
new city councillor Sara
Templeton , who ousted
Paul Lonsdale (right) in the
Heathcote Ward in the local
body elections on Saturday.
“I’ve had such amazing
support from my campaign
team and the community
who have all been supporting
me through this,” she said.
“There were no expectations
at all – I was hoping
to win but I wouldn’t have
stood for council if I didn’t
think I could win. But I never
expected that margin.”
Ms Templeton received
4059 votes, Mr Lonsdale
2474, and the other unsuccessful
candidate, Malcolm
Davis received 477.
Mr Londsale was the only
sitting councillor to miss out
on being re-elected.
Ms Templeton said she was
surprised with the result, but
was eager to get to work as a
city councillor.
Ms Templeton was the
Hagley-Ferrymead Community
Board chairwoman
for the last term, and has
campaigned hard in the new
Heathcote Ward to join the
council table.
Building communities and
sustainability are the two key
things she will be focusing on
as a city councillor.
“They’re both interlinked
very closely. We need communities
that are thriving
and connected to become
more connected. People
shopping locally and being
connected is the more sustainable
way for a city to be,”
she said.

CONGRATULATIONS to Sara
Templeton, the new Heathcote
Ward’s city councillor.
Sara has been a hard working
community board chairwoman
and will bring that energy and
forthrightness to the council table,
so her promotion to the top bench
of local politics is well deserved.
Sara is also a good communicator
to the community through Bay
Harbour News. And speaking of
communication, no response yet
from the Lyttelton police over the
crime camera issue.
C’est la vie on that one.
But on a much more positive
note, a great effort from the Sumner
surf lifesavers at the national
pool champs in Auckland (see page
19).
They won 13 medals including
six golds – you’ll be safe swimming
at the beach this summer.

New marina revealed
LYTTELTON WILL soon
boast Canterbury’s first
walk-on floating marina
which is in turn expected to
boost visitor numbers and the
township’s economy.
Lyttelton Port of Christchurch
revealed plans for its longawaited
marina at the inner
harbour pile moorings in the
harbour last week.
“The project is a significant
milestone for the port and the
wider Lyttelton community,”
LPC chief executive Peter
Davie said.
“A modern marina capable
of accommodating more of
Canterbury’s recreational
boating community is well
overdue.”
Stage one will see the inner
harbour pile moorings removed,130
berths built and the
area will be renamed Te Ana.
Naval Point Club Lyttelton
commodore Dave Anderson
said the marina is exactly what
the port town needs.
“Lyttelton needs a bit of impetus
and Lyttelton needs a bit
of an injection and by growing
the recreational marine industry
that’s going to grow the
whole town,” he said.
Current berth holders will

company’s new marina Te Ana. PHOTO: LYTTELTON PORT OF CHRISTCHURCH
have first priority in securing
a licence in the new marina at
commercial rates.
People who are not existing
licensed inner harbour pile
mooring berth holders can apply
for a licence for a new berth
and, if over-subscribed, a ballot
system may take place.
“We appreciate for some
existing berth holders, the
closing of the inner harbour
pile moorings at the end
of March 2017 will be
disappointing and some may
not choose to licence a berth
in the new marina,” said Mr
Davie.
“LPC will work with existing
berth holders where possible,
to identify alternative mooring
options.”
A promenade linking the
marina to the Lyttelton town
centre will also be developed,
along with a walk way to the
marina from Voelas Rd.
Stage two will see the marina
expanded and development of
the land side area to provide a
commercial precinct.
Once both stages are
complete, there will be 200
berths available for yachts and
powerboats.
Total Marine Services, a
specialist marine contracting
company based in Auckland
and the Bay of Islands, will
build the new marina.
Building will begin in the
first half of next year.
Associated land side
infrastructure, such as
parking, a marina office,
washrooms and other facilities
will be progressively completed
through 2017 and early 2018.

Freedom campers
facility possibility
at Windsport Park
• By Annabelle Dick
A GROUP of Ferrymead
businessmen want to turn city
council land near Windsport
Park into a facility area for
freedom campers.
The city council has been
hearing submissions on the
proposed Freedom Camping
Bylaw which would see Windsport
Park and four other areas
banned to freedom campers.
Pirates Ltd director Julian
Bell told the hearings panel
how Pirates and windsurfing
business owner Jamie
McGillviray were interested in
installing facilities for freedom
campers on a site near Windsport
Park.
“Council seemed very interested
in the idea,” he said. “We
intend to keep it simple.”
He said they wanted to put
in a basic shared kitchen, toilet
facilities, a shared social area
and possibly a laundry station
and campers would be charged
a small fee.
Mr Bell said the area is separate
from the problem areas
of the windsurf area and car
parking area.
City council figures showed
that Windsport Park could
have up to 106 freedom camping
vehicles there, while on
average it had eight.
People trying to access the
Windsport Club were having
trouble trying to park, and contractors
were finding it difficult
to access the toilets to empty
and clean them.
The city council has recommended
that freedom camping
be banned entirely from Ferrymead’s
Windsport Park and
four other sites.
It was allowed up until March
but was temporarily banned
after reports freedom campers
were defecating at the sites, over
staying their allowed time and
overcrowding the car parks.
City councillors approved
that the temporary changes be
made permanent in July and
the city council has been seeking
public submissions on the
bylaw changes.
Mr Bell said he believed this
would be a simple solution for
the freedom camping problem
nearby.

“There are some communities
that are really struggling and so
we need to focus on those areas
and at the same time enabling
those that are well resourced to
get on and do what they’re doing,”
she said.
Mr Lonsdale posted on Facebook:
“Thank you to all those
people who did actually support
me through this last term. We
accomplished a lot which was
no small feat given what we inherited
and got the city back on
track to be a great place to live.”
Ms Templeton said she felt for
Mr Lonsdale after the election
result.
Dr Darrell Latham and Dr
Tim Lindley will fill the two
community board vacancies
on the Heathcote Ward of the
Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board.
“I know both of them and I
know they both work really hard
for their communities and so I
think it’ll be really good,” she
said.
Meanwhile in Akaroa, Pam
Richardson and Janis Haley won
the two vacancies on the Akaroa
subdivision of the newly-formed
Banks Peninsula Community
Board.
Ms Richardson received 631
votes, Ms Haley 483 and Keith
Molloy was unsuccessful receiving
352 votes.
Andrew Turner won the
Banks Peninsula council seat
unopposed.
Councillors will be sworn in
on October 20.

Centre finally set to open
• By Annabelle Dick
THE MT Pleasant Memorial
Community Centre will open to
the public after a nearly six-year
uphill battle for a new home.
Construction woes and the
discovery of asbestos in the
ground delayed the community
centre build, but the opening
will still go ahead this Friday.
Mt Pleasant Residents’ Association
president Derek
McCullough said the $4.6m
project has taken years to come
to fruition but he’s excited about
VALUED
OVER
$69^
the unveiling.
“It’s a mixture of euphoria
and dead tiredness. It’s been a
long and interesting journey and
we’re in sight of the finish line so
it’s just that last little push now,”
he said.
The two-story, 600n sq m
building was designed by Grand
Designs NZ host Chris Moller.
There is an atrium, a studio
for dance classes, a room for
meetings or arts and crafts, a catering
kitchen and an office.
The building has a capacity of
250.
“People are really excited for it
to open. There’s been a long delay
and they’ve commented on
what a lovely looking building it
is,” he said.
The centre had to be rebuilt
after sustaining significant
damage during the February 22,
2011, earthquake, which struck
about 2km from Mt Pleasant.
The facility was under-insured
at the time of the earthquake
and received a $1.6m insurance
pay out.
The city council contributed
$1.66m to the community-led
repair, but the association still
needs to raise about $350,000 to
pay off a loan borrowed for the
construction.
The residents’ association is
asking residents to donate to the
rebuild fund via their website,
but the centre will open regardless.
The new centre will be blessed
prior to its official opening on
Friday. Members of the public
are invited to the blessing
ceremony at 7am. It will be
officially opened at 6pm with a
private ceremony.
CONSENT SOUGHT AGAIN
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.
STEDLEY PL WORK
Footpath and carriageway repairs
will close Stedley Pl next week.
Downer will shut the street to
traffic but access will be maintained
for residents and there will
be no on-street parking around
the work site. The work will begin
on Monday, October 17, and is
expected to take about two weeks.
DETOURS IN PLACE
A waste water pipe will be relayed
on Mt Pleasant Rd which will
cause traffic detours. The road
will be one-way uphill, between
247 and 255 Mt Pleasant Rd, and
downhill traffic will be detoured
via Belleview Tce and Major
Hornbrook Rd. The work is expected
to finish at the end of the
week.

School pupils
feature in
documentary
• By Annabelle Dick
PUPILS FROM the Bay area
will feature in an international
documentary after their David
Bowie tribute song got picked
up by an Italian filmmaker.
The song, Starman in
the Stars, was written and
performed by Mandi Miller,
Mark Wilson, their band All
the Queen’s Horses and a choir
of school students.
An Italian film project,
Ritratti, will use the music
video in a collective multimedia
film called BowieNext.
Ms Miller, of Woolston,
is overjoyed with the news,
saying she had hoped the track
would get snapped up and
used.
“I have been promoting it
and been trying to find people
that are making David Bowie
documentaries, so this is really
exciting,” she said.
Pupils from Sumner School,
THE NEXT GENERATION: Pupils from Somerfield and
nearby schools sung their heart out in tribute to Bowie.
Redcliffs School, Heathcote
Valley School, Somerfield
School and former school
pupils helped record the
track at Orange Studios in
Ferrymead.
It was made as a tribute
to the late David Bowie who
passed away in January this
year.
“They all learnt the chorus
and held down the main
melody and I improvised over
top of them. Their voices really
stand out,” Ms Miller said.
“The added element of the
children in the video was really
significant to me because Bowie
was still making music up until
he passed and I think they’re a
new generation of Bowie fans.”
Ms Miller has been a singing
teacher at Sumner School for
nearly 10 years and also teaches
at Redcliffs School.
The 26 students that feature
are current and former singing
students of hers.
“There are some really
good voices out there and the
children are such good kids.
They’re kind and considerate
people but, vocally, I’ve had
some amazing singers come
through,” she said.
Mr Wilson and Ms Miller
make up the cover duo X-Files
and are also part of the rock
band Retrosonic and All the
Queen’s Horses.
The duo are now working on
their next video after filming a
video in the United States.

PROPOSED WORK: Lyttelton Port of Christchurch plans to dredge a deeper and wider
navigation channel in the harbour.

Port seeks consent to
deepen harbour bed
ZIGGY STARDUST: Iconic
singer-songwriter David Bowie
passed away in January this
year.
HONOURING AN IDOL: Mandi
Miller wrote and sang Starman
in the Stars as a tribute to
Bowie.
• By Annabelle Dick
LYTTELTON PORT of
Christchurch has applied
for a resource consent for its
proposed multi-million dollar
dredging project.
LPC is proposing to excavate
the seabed to deepen, widen
and lengthen the channel to
allow larger ships to access the
port.
The port company requested
the consent be publicly
notified so people can lodge
a submission in support or
opposition of the application.
An Environment Canterbury
spokesperson said the consent
will be publicly notified within
this month.
LPC is proposing to lengthen
the existing channel by 6.5km,
widen it by 20m and increase
the depth by up to 5-6m.
The dredging project will see
sediment excavated from the
channel and deposited offshore
6km from Godley Head.
The project is expected to
cost between $80m and $120m.
Over the last 10 years,
the size of container ships
internationally has doubled
and the largest vessels visiting
the port carry more than 4500
containers.
After the dredging project
is complete, larger vessels will
have up to 8000 containers.
Construction work has also
begun at the port on a new
head office after the Norwich
Quay building suffered
earthquake damage in 2011.
Work is underway in the
container terminal to create a
building for the operations and
administration team.
Piling for the building will
begin soon and residents are
told to expect noise.
The work involves driving
over 80 piles about 20-30m
deep.
Work will begin around
October 17 and continue for up
to 25 days.
SCIRT programme on
the home straight
SCIRT’s five year programme of repairs to pipes, roads, bridges and retaining
walls is almost complete and we’re aiming to finish construction in December.
The City Council and NZ Transport Agency will continue completing ongoing
repairs to the city's earthquake-damaged infrastructure after SCIRT.
Progress in your neighbourhood
• The Beachville Road Seawall in Redcliffs is now complete and the road sealed.
• Lyttelton is still busy with ongoing retaining wall repairs, underground pipe and roading
repairs that will continue through to the end of the year.
• Work on Evans Pass retaining wall has started with rock stabilisation, and will be
finished by December.
• The large project in Mt Pleasant and Heathcote repairing wastewater, storm water
and roading is due to be completed by the end of November.
Your support is helping us to get the job done.
Thank you from the SCIRT team.

COMMUNITY BUILDING: Chris Doudney and Christine Toner, of the Redcliffs Residents’
Association, want the Redcliffs Community Pavilion to be repaired so it can be used
again.
Pavilion work halted
• By Annabelle Dick
WORK ON the Redcliffs
Community Pavilion is at a
standstill before physical work
has even begun.
The design for the refurbished
pavilion cost more
than the $100,000 budget,
which means an agreement
between the Redcliffs Residents’
Association and the
city council can’t move ahead.
“Until a design can be
confirmed that is within the
existing budget, we are unable
to proceed with a memorandum
of understanding
with council to progress the
project,” Redcliffs Residents’
Association chairman Chris
Doudney said.
The city council agreed to
sign a MOU with the residents’
association to repair
the earthquake-damaged
pavilion to a basic standard.
Ownership would then be
transferred to the residents’
association for $1 once it was
complete and the association
would lease the land the
pavilion sits on from the city
council.
But Mr Doudney said
building reports and estimates
have eaten up half of
the allocated funds.
“The estimate is $300,000
will be needed so the funding
is nowhere near enough,” he
said.
Mr Doudney said the
community feel the $100,000
would’ve been enough to
make the building safe and
complete most of a refurbishment.
The council-led project is
only due to bring the building
up to the standard it was
before the February, 22, 2011
earthquake.
App will
help map
dolphins
A NEW app called Hector’s
Dolphin Sightings has been
launched for Kiwis to map the
endangered animal.
The free smartphone app has
been created for dolphin watchers
to help with research and
fill in knowledge gaps on the
species.
The smartphone app was
developed by ThunderMaps in
conjunction with Whale & Dolphin
Conservation consultant
Gemma McGrath.
“Locals are excellent citizen
scientists. You’re out observing
the environment every day,” Ms
McGrath said.
“With correct species identification,
you can provide real
scientific data. Hector’s dolphins
are very distinctive from other
dolphins. There’s nothing pointy
about their fins, they’re very
smooth and rounded. All other
dolphin species have pointed
fins. It’s now really fun and easy
to report sightings at the touch
of a few buttons.”
People can take photos when
they spot the rare breed and
upload it instantly through the
app available on Google Play
and the App Store.

News
Mud and lots of photo glory
• By Annabelle Dick
REDCLIFFS resident Kai
Schwoerer has taken second
place in the 2016 International
Photography Awards.
Mr Schwoerer’s Rugby in the
mud shows young rugby players
in a ruck at a first XV rugby
match between Christ’s College
and Shirley Boys’ High School.
The German-born
photographer said it was a huge
accomplishment for him.
“It’s a great feeling, I feel like
a winner. It’s second place but
it doesn’t matter because being
among the winners at this
competition means you are a
winner,” he said.
The 2016 International
Photography Awards received
nearly 15,000 submissions from
103 countries.
The photo competition is one
of the most highly regarded
photography competitions in the
world.
His photo will now be
exhibited in New York and at
other shows around the world
alongside other competition
winners.
“I’ve won other awards
and they brought big money
but this isn’t about money or
anything. This competition
has such a good image that it
will bring really good exposure
as it’s highly ranked in the
photography world,” he
said.
Mr Schwoerer started out
his career as a sports journalist
and often had to take his own
pictures when photographers
weren’t available.
He enjoyed it so much
he gradually he made the
transition to just being a sport
photographer.
He’s shot at the countless
football matches all over Europe,
the London 2012 Olympic
Games and the 2013 UEFA
Champions League Final.
“I was really lucky because
my first photo project got
me started. That was when I
photographed famous German
Bundesliga football players I
knew personally on the pitches
where they started their career.
The photos were average but a
highly-regarded photo agency
asked if they could distribute the
photos and that got me a step in
the door,” he said.
Mr Schwoerer continues
to work all over the world for
clients like Getty Images, sports
associations, clubs, organisers
and sponsors.
He moved to New Zealand at
the beginning of last year and he
lives with his wife and new-born
child in Redcliffs.

Buying Your First Home –
Impossible? Maybe Not.
Is a $5000 savings account enough
to purchase a $450,000 first home
in Christchurch? General opinion
would say, “No, not in your dreams!”
Mr and Mrs Smith – married with
2 children
Recently I assisted Mr and Mrs Smith*
with their first home purchase - a
$450,000 3 bedroom, renovated
home close to the hill suburbs.
They both qualified to withdraw
their Kiwisaver savings, Mr Smith’s
withdrawal totaling $14,000 and Mrs
Smith’s $16,000. They also both
qualified for the Kiwisaver Homestart
Grant of $5000 each. These
amounts together with their $5000
savings totalled $45,000, or 10% of
the purchase price.
They obtained approval for a
Kiwibank Welcome Home Loan
for the remaining $405,000. They
are now happily living in their own
home with current weekly mortgage
repayments of $451- the same as
their previous rental payments.
Ben and Jerry – flatmates for
previous 2 years
Another client, Ben, and his flatmate,
Jerry*, together purchased a new 3
bedroom home in a subdivision for
$520,000. They purchased in equal
shares each contributing $260,000.
They set up a legal agreement
recording their rights and obligations
concerning their ownership of the
house.
Their purchase price was made up as
follows:
Ben: $15,000 Kiwisaver Withdrawal,
$10,000 Homestart Grant, $1,000
gift from parents, $234,000 Westpac
Welcome Home Loan.
Jerry: $10,000 Kiwisaver Withdrawal,
$10,000 Homestart Grant, $6,000
savings, $234,000 Westpac Welcome
Home Loan.
Their current mortgage repayments
are $212 per week each. However
recently, they decided to take on
another flatmate who pays $180
a week for her room. They share
equally in this rent, thereby reducing
their weekly mortgage repayments to
just $122 each.
Kiwisaver withdrawal
As long as you leave a minimum
balance of $1000 in your Kiwisaver
savings account, you may be entitled
to withdraw the rest to use towards
your first home purchase.
You must meet all of the following
eligibility criteria:
• Have been a member of Kiwisaver
for the previous 3 years or more;
• You must intend to live in the
property (ie it cannot be an
investment);
• You must have not owned
property before (you may still
qualify for this withdrawal if you’ve
owned a property previously)
Housing New Zealand Homestart
Grant
If you are eligible to withdraw
from your Kiwisaver account, you
may also qualify for the Homestart
Grant. The Homestart Grant pays
$1000 for every year you’ve been
a member of Kiwisaver, up to a
maximum of $5000, for an existing
home. It pays $2000 for every year
you’ve been a member, up to a
maximum of $10,000 for a brand
new home (which definition includes
a home which received its code of
compliance less than 6 months prior
to Housing New Zealand receiving
your application for a Homestart
Grant). Like Ben and Jerry, a
couple purchasing a new home will
potentially receive up to $20,000.
To be eligible for the Homestart
Grant you must meet the following
criteria in addition to the above
Kiwisaver withdrawal criteria:
• You have contributed the minimum
3% of your income to Kiwisaver for
at least the last 3 years;
• A sole purchaser must have earned
$85,000 or less in the previous 12
months, or if there are two of you
a combined income of $135,000 or
less;
• You have a deposit of 10% of the
purchase price – this may include
your Kiwisaver withdrawal amount
and any money gifted by a family
member.
• If you are buying in the
Christchurch region, the purchase
price is no more than $500,000
for an existing house, or $550,000
for a new home.
ADVERTORIAL
There is also a possibility that you
may withdraw your Kiwisaver savings
and receive a Homestart Grant if
you have owned a property before,
subject to meeting relevant eligibility
criteria.
Welcome Home Loan
Subject to meeting lending criteria,
you may qualify for a 90% home loan
from a number of banks and lenders,
including Kiwibank, Westpac, TSB
Bank and SBS Bank.
Each set of lending criteria may
differ amongst the different banks
and lenders, however, will include
your ability to service the loan, your
credit history, and your financial
circumstances.
Conclusion
Despite the increasingly out-of-reach
house prices, there are possibilities
to get into your first home without
having to save a $100,000-plus
deposit. I am happy to assist and
provide a legal fees estimate for any
first-home buyers. Please phone for a
no obligation chat.

Port Hills Labour
MP Ruth Dyson
talks about the
importance
of banding
together as
a community
post-quake and supporting
local businesses
Everywhere you turn, there are
signs of the buds of recovery in our
communities – alongside the buds
in the garden with the beautiful
spring weather arriving.
From the Redcliffs Library, the
Ferry Road New World to the
Beachville Rd sea wall and the
Coastal Pathway development in
this area through to the amazing
Mt Pleasant Memorial Community
Centre (isn’t that a magnificent
addition to the causeway). Then
there’s the Heathcote Community
Centre and Library, the start of the
Sumner Community Centre, plus
the beginning of the work to reopen
Evans Pass/Sumner Rd from
Sumner to Lyttelton.
These developments lift people’s
spirits and are great signs of the
progress of rebuilding our city and
community facilities. They should
be celebrated not just as new
buildings, facilities or structures,
but as a recognition of the determination
of our communities to
work together, get the best design
and plans and deliver something
that is fit for purpose for the future
needs of local residents.
Every new step is a tribute to
the many local people who have
worked hard to turn vision into
reality.
Our local businesses deserve
to have tribute paid to them as
well. The last six years have been
very hard on our business owners,
as the population drop, street
closures, parking disruptions and
a lack of confidence diminishing
the dollars spent have challenged
them. Continued road works and
traffic disruption is still challenging!
But with the support
of local residents, most of our
businesses have survived. Many
have changed the way they operate
to adapt to the changed needs of
their customers or to attract new
customers.
So please continue to support
the local shops in your area –
even when other options are available.
We all have heard that old
saying “you don’t know what
you’ve got til it’s gone” and if we
don’t continue to support them,
they may not survive in the future.
That would be a loss for all of us.
NO SPACE: More cemetery plots are needed in Akaroa as the four cemeteries are at capacity.
Bay Harbour News asked
readers what they thought
of the lack of burial plots in
Akaroa and whether they
think another cemetery
should be created
Roland Matthews
Regarding more burial plots, I
think they are a sad waste of the
world’s resources. Why should
someone who has spent their
life consuming these resources
continue to do so after they have
died?
Personally, I think cemeteries
should be dug up and planted
with trees to return to the Earth
what we have so mercilessly
taken.
Bay Harbour News asked
readers if they thought
there should be more
enforcement and security
in Lyttelton to deter crime
Heather Dietsche
(There) most definitely needs
to be more enforcement and
security as I had packages stolen
that had been delivered.
Much more needs to be done.

Sumner strikes gold SPORTS
• By Fraser Walker-Pearce
THREE NATIONAL records
were set by Sumner surf
lifesavers at the national pool
championships in Auckland.
Sumner Surf Lifesaving Club
sent 12 athletes to the competition,
which was held at the AUT
Millenium’s Sir Owen G. Glenn
National Aquatic Centre over
three days of competition in a
range of activities.
About 600 athletes from
New Zealand, and 10 from
New South Wales in Australia,
competed over the course of the
three days.
Sumner won 13 medals,
including six golds, and earned
a total of 36 points which
put them in eighth place
overall.
Sumner club captain Henry
Lawson said for some of the
athletes to return as national
record holders is a great achievement.
“The club is stoked with how
the competition went, we
had some really outstanding
results. We didn’t expect that
level of success at all, that was
definitely a little bit of a surprise,”
he said.
The competition was won by
the Mt Maunganui Lifeguard
Service with 162 points - more
than 50 ahead of second placed
Orewa.
The three national record
holders for Sumner were Cassie
Wright, who beat the women’s
under 19 swim with fins 50m
event record; Matthew Phillips
beat the men’s open swim with
fins 50m event record; and the
combined efforts of Brittany
Tucker, Wright, Olivia Mason,
and Courtney Quinn now hold
the record for the women’s open
4 x 25m manikin relay.

In Brief
YACHTING AWARD
Mt Pleasant Yacht Club’s Keith
Hays has been named one of this
year’s Volvo Excellence Service
Award winners. Mr Hays’ dedication
to junior sailors at the club in
the aftermath of the earthquakes
was recognised by Yachting New
Zealand recently. He has been
involved with the club since the
1980s. The awards evening will be
held in Auckland next month.
CRICKET COLLAPSE
Sumner Cricket Club’s senior side
collapsed on the final day of their
two-day match against Merivale-
Papanui on Saturday. Sumner
resumed the second day in a strong
position having taken a first innings
lead of 50 and, after a strong
bowling attack, left themselves with
103 runs to chase. Sumner managed
to reach 97/7 before losing all
three remaining wickets without
scoring again. The team will next
take on Heathcote at St Leonards
Square.
RUNNING SUCCESS
Sumner Running Club has tasted
success in two recent races. In the
36km Abel Tasman Classic, David
Fitch placed second overall with a
time of 2hr 37min 45secs. In the Mt
Cook half marathon on Saturday,
club member Danny Carmine took
home second place.

From Treviso to Sumner SPORTS
• By Fraser Walker-Pearce
A PROFESSIONAL rugby coach
who formerly plied his trade in
Italy will look to turn Sumner
into a “champion” club.
Martin Field-Dodgson (left)
is fresh from a
10-year-stint
with Benetton
Treviso, a Pro12
competition side,
where over that
time he was the
club’s academy
manager, skills
and performance coach, and assistant
coach.
Pro12 is a European competition,
contested by the top Italian,
Irish, Welsh and Scottish teams.
In previous years, All Blacks
such as John Kirwan and Craig
Green have played for the club.
Prior to his work in Italy, Field-
Dodgson worked for Queensland
Rugby Union and coached the
Brothers club in Brisbane, where
in 2005, the club won a national
title.
He made the move back to
Christchurch after a conversation
with now Crusaders and
Canterbury coach Scott Robertson,
who suggested he should
lead the seaside suburb.
“I’m originally from Christchurch,
in the Cashmere hills area.
I went to secondary school here
but with the old man’s job we
moved around a bit, but I always
considered here home. I enjoyed
the beach and that kind of thing.
“I’d been in touch [with Robertson]
for a while, he said after
looking at my CV ‘you’ve done a
lot of assistant coaching, but you
need to run your own ship, get
involved in club rugby’,” Field-
Dodgson said.
When he touched down in
the city, Robertson took him
to a Sumner team training and
watched videos of previous
matches.
“. . . there are lots of good individuals
involved with the club,
but I saw some small things that
I could change that would have a
good effect,” he said.
After only a few weeks in
charge, the new coach has selfproclaimed
“lofty” ideas and
goals for the club.
“[My goal is] without getting
too specific, to turn Sumner into
a champion club. That might not
mean we end up lifting the trophy
at the end of the season, but
everything we do as a club we do
as if we are the champions. That
means champion training sessions,
and getting that mentality
into every single drill,” he said.
CONTRAST: St
Leonards Square (left)
is a contrast to Stadio
Comunale Monigo
(below) in Treviso
where Sumner’s new
coach Martin
Field-Dodgson is used
to working.

The health effects of
sugar
Should we be alarmed or is this likely to be
another area that science backtracks on?
The answer to that question is,
yes, we should be worried. There
are real problems caused by the
volume of sugar being consumed
by the average person and when we look
back over the last decades, the problem is
getting worse, not better.
Developments in research and
understanding the fields of nutrition and
food safety change how we view products
we consume, and patterns of consumption
can make the negative effects of foods
more pronounced.
While these advances should be
embraced as each development leads to
better understanding and health outcomes,
it can also be frustrating to the average
consumer who can feel like just when they
get a good healthy eating plan together, the
rules change.
The recommendations for sugar are a
good example of how information can
be confusing. Some sources encourage
the complete ban on all sugar-containing
products and others, such as the heart
foundation, recommend a reduction rather
than complete removal.
It’s not so confusing though, really. At
no time in history has sugar ever been
presented as a healthy food, but as in the
past it took more effort to consume sugar
so it was less of a problem, thus we could
get away with it.
In the past, sugar was something that
you could control through how much you
added in baking and to your cup of tea. This
knowledge then transferred into the first
generation of convenience food; if it was
sweet, it had sugar in it.
What we now face as a challenge is not that
suddenly sugar is bad, but that it is added,
often quietly, to many of the processed foods
we consume even when they aren’t sweet.
The availability and often reduced price of
these foods compared to a healthier option
make them an easy choice to the time-poor
or uneducated consumer.
There are some simple tips you can follow,
including reading food labels, consuming
as much food as possible in a state close
What we now face as a challenge is not that
suddenly sugar is bad, but that it is added, often
quietly, to many of the processed foods we
consume even when they aren’t sweet.
to its natural form and avoiding sugary
drinks. Consumers also need to be aware
of marketing claims that do not provide the
full nutritional picture of a product.
A sensible place to start is by
combining a diet low in processed
food and sugar combined with regular
activity as the path to long-term health.
For more advice and direction to improve
your health, talk to your registered exercise
professional, they can offer some advice and
are able to refer you to sources of information
and other nutritional professionals that you
can trust.

REAL ESTATE
A very special blend in the harbour
19 Zephyr Terrace, Governors Bay
From $699,000
4 bedrooms | 1 bathroom | 3 living rooms | Listing # 2867
Nestled in this mature beautiful
Governors Bay garden in a very private
and picturesque setting is this charming
character filled 4 bedroom home. Set
on a stunning 1692m2 site, this home
has grown from a humble turn-of-thecentury
farmer’s cottage to this warm
sunny and inviting family home. Set over
3 easy levels, extensive use of native timber
and large windows ensure lots of sun
and natural light and a lovely ambience.
Wonderful garden and harbour views
from throughout the house, prolific birdlife
and really a gardener’s paradise. The
large open plan kitchen/dining area is the
heart of the house which has 3 separate
living areas with 2 wood-burners and a
heat-pump for those winter evenings. The
more recent extension leads through a
glass filled staircase to a traditional elegant
sitting room with French Doors out into
the garden. The master bedroom also has
French Doors to access the outdoor bath
area with its sheltered verandah. Numerous
meandering paths lead to an Artist’s Studio,
fully insulated and with more garden and
sea views. Families, artists and bird lovers
will be captivated by this tranquil and
peaceful setting. The house just blends
seamlessly into the garden with its mature
trees, fruit trees, roses, vege patch, just
perfect and all this only 15 minutes’ drive
from town. If you have been dreaming of a
different lifestyle and want to be part of a
community in Governors Bay this one will
be hard to beat. With very few owners over
the past 100 odd years and located in such
a prime position our vendors reluctantly
feel it is time to move on.
Open Home: 12 noon to 12.45pm

Is HOME the best place for me as I age?
This is a question many older people (and
their loved ones) ask as they approach their
senior years. Can I still live in my own home?
What can I do to stay independent at home for
as long as possible?
Catherine and Louise at Port Hill Therapists,
are experienced Occupational Therapists
whose passion is to enable people to THRIVE
in their senior years. As registered health
professionals, we understand the challenges
that aging creates when it comes to retaining
your independence.
At Port Hill Therapists, we work with our
clients to come up with individually tailored
solutions to make the home environment safer
or ways to enable greater ease and independence
accessing the home, bathroom and toilet or
getting about the garden. We also look at
finding different ways of performing tasks such
as looking after yourself, housekeeping, staying
active and getting out and about.
Understanding and managing issues such
as pain, fatigue, stress or loss of confidence is
something we can also help with; providing
solutions that will work for you. Port Hill
Therapists have many connections in the local
community with other health providers, inhome
services, tradespeople etc whom we can
connect you with.
An Initial Assessment of your needs takes
between 1 and 2 hours and a plan is developed
from there. Initial cost is $130 plus travel.
To discuss your needs or to book a
consultation in your home call Port Hill
Therapists 027 221 9071 or 337 9602 or
