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.

In Brief

COASTAL PATH FINISHED

Coastal pathway work on Beachville

Rd is now complete. The Christchurch

Coastal Pathway Project has now

work at the Redcliffs Reserve situated

on the pathway. A celebration will be

held to mark the completion at the

sea wall and coastal pathway in east

Beachville Rd on November 6.

Freedom campers

facility possibility

at Windsport Park


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

Andrew Turner won the

Banks Peninsula council seat

unopposed.

Councillors will be sworn in

on October 20.

Centre finally set to open


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

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.


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


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


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.

BAY HARBOUR

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.

renovating, or how about a new deck

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.

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

visit us at www.porthilltherapists.co.nz
