New portraits<br />

of a bygone era<br />

Governors <strong>Bay</strong> Hotel owners Jeremy<br />

as the founding father of Canterbury<br />

John Robert Godley and his wife<br />

Charlotte Godley as a part of Julia<br />

Holden’s Lyttelton Redux exhibition.<br />

Stable power supply pledged<br />

• By Tom Doudney<br />

ORION HAS promised Lyttelton<br />

residents a more resilient power<br />

supply by 2019, following a<br />

recent outage which left <strong>16</strong>00<br />

homes without electricity for<br />

about 13 hours.<br />

The town and surrounding<br />

bays are vulnerable to outages as<br />

power is supplied via two lines<br />

that sit on the same set of poles<br />

running over the Port Hills<br />

where they are exposed to the<br />

elements.<br />

If one line fails it can cause the<br />

other to fail due to their proximity.<br />

This is what happened on<br />

<strong>November</strong> 5, with an outage<br />

affecting Lyttelton, Corsair <strong>Bay</strong>,<br />

Cass <strong>Bay</strong>, Rapaki, Governors <strong>Bay</strong><br />

and Pigeon <strong>Bay</strong> and Rapaki.<br />

In a statement released following<br />

that outage, Orion said<br />

it had a plan to restore network<br />

resilience and reliability to the<br />

city, following the earthquakes,<br />

by 2019. Improving the surety of<br />

power supply in Lyttelton was a<br />

priority it said.<br />

“We appreciate Lyttelton has<br />

suffered a number of outages in<br />

recent years and we understand<br />

the frustration that this has<br />

caused for residents and the<br />

business community,” the statement<br />

said.<br />

Orion has been in talks with<br />

the NZ Transport Agency over a<br />

$1.5m project to improve power<br />

supply to the Lyttelton area by<br />

installing a new and separate cable<br />

running via the road tunnel.<br />

Any agreement reached on a<br />

tunnel route will take about 24<br />

months to implement.<br />

Orion’s statement said<br />

that while these discussions<br />

continued, it was focusing on<br />

improving the reliability of the<br />

two existing overhead lines that<br />

serviced the area. Further work<br />

on this would be undertaken in<br />

early next year.<br />

Lyttelton Coffee Culture owner<br />

Leona Cooper said Orion’s plans<br />

would be good for the town.<br />

“I think they need to improve<br />

the power here,” she said.<br />

The <strong>November</strong> 5 power outage<br />

had meant they weren’t able to<br />

serve coffee until 11.30am on<br />

that day.<br />

The Banks Peninsula Community<br />

Board received a briefing on<br />

the work in August and board<br />

chairwoman Christine Wilson<br />

said she would be meeting with<br />

Orion again to discuss the situation<br />

following the recent outage.<br />

“I personally felt quite excited<br />

by the briefing we had earlier on<br />

in the year and the work that is<br />

taking place,” she said.<br />

LIKE SO many of you, I was<br />

perched up on the hills after being<br />

evacuated due to the tsunami risk<br />

on Monday morning.<br />

Again, like the previous earthquakes,<br />

I am always taken by the<br />

wonderful folk we have in this city.<br />

While I was perched up the top of<br />

Egnot Heights in Redcliffs, the lads<br />

in my car decided they would have<br />

a nap, but I decided to have a wander<br />

around. I found Nicki of North<br />

New Brighton, who unknowingly<br />

soothed me with her banter and<br />

beaut two-year-old dog.<br />

Then, Nicki and I found ourselves<br />

invited into a stranger’s<br />

home, who brewed us a cup of<br />

dearly needed caffeine. In their<br />

house were other refugees. The<br />

family was so welcoming, so a big<br />

thank you to them.<br />

The earthquakes continue to<br />

shake us, but they do not shake our<br />

marvellous Christchurch spirit.<br />

Chaos<br />

by Patricia Cornwell<br />

Fear is a force of nature. No. 1 New York Times bestselling author<br />

Patricia Cornwell delivers the twenty-fourth engrossing thriller<br />

in her high-stakes series starring medical examiner Dr. Kay<br />

Scarpetta. In the quiet of twilight, on an early autumn day,<br />

twenty-six-year-old Elisa Vandersteel is killed while riding her<br />

bicycle along the Charles River. It appears she was struck by<br />

lightning - except the weather is perfectly clear with not a cloud<br />

in sight. Dr. Kay Scarpetta, the Cambridge Forensic Center’s<br />

director and chief, decides at the scene that this is no accidental<br />

Act of God. Her investigation becomes complicated when she begins<br />

receiving a flurry of bizarre poems from an anonymous cyberbully who<br />

calls himself Tailend Charlie. Though subsequent lab results support Scarpetta’s<br />

conclusions, the threatening messages don’t stop. When the tenth poem arrives<br />

exactly twenty-four hours after Elisa’s death, Scarpetta begins to suspect the harasser<br />

is involved, and sounds the alarm to her investigative partner, Pete Marino, and her<br />

husband, FBI analyst Benton Wesley.She also enlists the help of her niece, Lucy. But<br />

to Scarpetta’s surprise, tracking the slippery Tailend Charlie is nearly impossible, even<br />

for someone as brilliant as her niece. Also, Lucy can’t explain how this anonymous<br />

nemesis could have access to private information. To make matters worse, a<br />

venomous media is whipping the public into a frenzy, questioning the seasoned<br />

forensics chief’s judgment and “a quack cause of death on a par with spontaneous<br />

combustion”<br />

Delay in kindergarten decision<br />

• By Annabelle Dick<br />

HEARING DELAYS mean that<br />

Mt Pleasant residents will have<br />

to wait a bit longer to see if a<br />

kindergarten will be built on a<br />

contentious McCormacks <strong>Bay</strong><br />

Rd site.<br />

An outcome was expected<br />

on <strong>November</strong> 5 after a resource<br />

consent hearing finished on<br />

October 18, but commissioner<br />

Justine Ashley wanted more<br />

information on the landscaping<br />

plan.<br />

The hearing could not be<br />

closed so the decision date has<br />

been pushed back<br />

to Friday.<br />

Kidsfirst wants<br />

to build a 248 sq<br />

m kindergarten,<br />

which is bigger<br />

than their former<br />

centre damaged<br />

in the 2011 earthquake.<br />

The childhood centre is<br />

planned to be 30m west of the<br />

former kindergarten and homeowners<br />

are angry it will block<br />

their view of the estuary.<br />

The organisation applied to<br />

the city council for resource<br />

consent to build and operate a<br />

centre in June but were declined<br />

due to a city council mistake.<br />

Nearby property owner<br />

Margaret Evrard was meant to<br />

UP IN THE AIR: Kidsfirst is still waiting to hear if they can establish a kindergarten on the<br />

reserve on McCormacks <strong>Bay</strong> Rd.<br />

notified about the application<br />

but she wasn’t initially seen as a<br />

property affected by the centre,<br />

so Kidsfirst had to resubmit its<br />

application.<br />

When asked what the landscaping<br />

plan amendments were<br />

and if the setbacks have been<br />

frustrating, Kidsfirst chief executive<br />

Sherryll Wilson wouldn’t<br />

comment.<br />

“It would be inappropriate<br />

for Kidsfirst to comment while<br />

the resource consent process is<br />

under way,” she said.<br />

She said after the hearing<br />

concluded it would make a<br />

public statement.<br />

The proposed centre will<br />

run longer from 8am to 5pm<br />

with an estimated 200 vehicles<br />

expected to move in and out of<br />

McCormacks <strong>Bay</strong> Rd.<br />

Residents said the narrow<br />

strip is a dangerous place for a<br />

kindergarten as busy thoroughfare<br />

Main Rd is only metres<br />

away and McCormacks <strong>Bay</strong> Rd<br />

has a blind corner.<br />

“While the community centre<br />

was being rebuilt there was<br />

three accidents – one of them<br />

had their door cleaned right off<br />

its hinges,” Mr Graham Keats<br />

said.<br />

“It’s really bad from a safety<br />

aspect as kids are going to be<br />

loaded and unloaded during the<br />

peak times for traffic.”<br />

In Brief<br />

QUAKE REPAIRS<br />

Work is being done to repair<br />

earthquake-damaged infrastructure<br />

in Mt Pleasant, Redcliffs and<br />

Heathcote Valley. Contractor<br />

Downer started work on Monday to<br />

fix roads, stormwater and wastewater<br />

systems and the damaged pump<br />

station on Port Hills Rd. A new<br />

concrete wall will be constructed to<br />

surround the existing pump station<br />

and the repairs will take about two<br />

weeks to complete. The walking<br />

track between Flinders Rd and Port<br />

Hills Rd will stay open during repair<br />

work.<br />

DEFIBRILLATOR FOR CLUB<br />

The Redcliffs Mt Pleasant Bowling<br />

Club has installed a defibrillator at<br />

its clubrooms for the community<br />

to access. It was funded through<br />

a $3500 grant from the Westpac<br />

Air Rescue Trust, and will be<br />

stored on the wall of the verandah<br />

at the clubrooms on 9 James<br />

St, Redcliffs. A number of club<br />

members have received training<br />

from St John on how to use the<br />

system. A defibrillator is used to<br />

help treat people suffering from lifethreatening<br />

heart problems.<br />

HERITAGE GRANT<br />

The city council will meet tomorrow<br />

to decide if it will approve a $127,415<br />

grant for a heritage building in Lyttelton.<br />

Pedestrian<br />

crossing<br />

confirmed<br />

• By Annabelle Dick<br />

A PEDESTRIAN crossing is<br />

expected to be put in place on<br />

Norwich Quay by Christmas.<br />

The New Zealand Transport<br />

Agency confirmed it would create<br />

a crossing after a city council<br />

panel approved the installation<br />

of a bus shelter on Norwich<br />

Quay in September.<br />

NZTA has indicated that the<br />

kerb, bus shelter and signals are<br />

expected to be installed before<br />

Christmas but full commissioning<br />

of the signalised pedestrian<br />

crossing may not occur until<br />

February/March.<br />

The bus stop and shelter will<br />

be installed adjacent to 25 Norwich<br />

Quay and will replace the<br />

existing bus stop on Norwich<br />

Quay opposite Dublin St.<br />

“Work on the shelter itself<br />

has begun off site, and it will be<br />

transported to the site and lifted<br />

in once new kerbs and footpaths<br />

are ready,” city council team<br />

leader traffic operations Ryan<br />

Rolston said.<br />

It will cost about $9000 to<br />

build and install the shelter and<br />

is intended to meet the demands<br />

of the growing number of bus<br />

users.<br />

READY TO RELOCATE: Lyttelton chief fire officer Mark Buckley is excited to move into the new fire station on London St.<br />

New fire station takes shape<br />

• By Annabelle Dick<br />

IT’S BEEN more than half a<br />

decade since the Lyttelton’s<br />

volunteer fire fighters have had<br />

a permanent home but that will<br />

soon change.<br />

The brigade has begun the<br />

shift into its new London St<br />

station with an official opening<br />

scheduled for early next year.<br />

“We’ve already had two moves<br />

since the earthquake and we<br />

have settled into our present<br />

location but now the guys have<br />

had a look through the new<br />

station, they’re getting a bit<br />

excited,” chief fire officer Mark<br />

Buckley said.<br />

The brigade’s station was<br />

badly damaged in the February<br />

2011 earthquake and was later<br />

demolished.<br />

Immediately after the quake,<br />

Mr Buckley and deputy chief<br />

fire officer Dwayne Pool sent<br />

their families away and worked<br />

from the damaged station to<br />

FACILITY:<br />

Preparations<br />

are being made<br />

to move the<br />

fire station from<br />

its temporary<br />

site in Norwich<br />

Quay.<br />

help support Lyttelton residents<br />

through the turmoil.<br />

They’ve been operating out of<br />

temporary bases since.<br />

The brigade moved to the port<br />

company’s car park following<br />

the quakes, before moving back<br />

into temporary premises on<br />

London St, and then into its current<br />

site on Norwich Quay.<br />

“Lyttelton, like other brigades<br />

in the region, showed its dedication<br />

to its community in the<br />

aftermath of the Canterbury<br />

earthquakes,” New Zealand Fire<br />

Service region manager Steve<br />

Turek said.<br />

“Like many brigades in this<br />

area, Lyttelton was virtually cut<br />

off following the earthquake and<br />

the brigade provided a lifeline<br />

and emergency support for its<br />

community.”<br />

The new station is a part of a<br />

$50 million investment by the<br />

New Zealand Fire Service to<br />

rebuild Christchurch facilities.<br />

New life for harbour icon<br />

• By Annabelle Dick<br />

THE NAUTILUS was once a<br />

long-time resident of Lyttelton<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> and now it has been<br />

celebrated as a piece of maritime<br />

history.<br />

The World War 1 vessel was<br />

relaunched last month in Auckland,<br />

five years after it was gifted<br />

to the New Zealand Maritime<br />

Museum.<br />

It belonged to retired Mt Pleasant<br />

businessman Allan Williams,<br />

who bought it in 1994 and<br />

berthed it in Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong>.<br />

“When I bought it, it was dilapidated.<br />

It was covered in bird<br />

droppings and it was unloved<br />

and unwanted,” he said.<br />

The Nautilus was used during<br />

New Zealand’s Gallipoli campaign<br />

in 1915.<br />

The 103-year-old boat towed<br />

injured soldiers off the hospital<br />

ship Marama to hospitals in<br />

Alexandria, Egypt.<br />

It also did service in the<br />

English Channel and returned<br />

to Christchurch after the war to<br />

work in the Avon River and Lyttelton<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong>.<br />

“Apart from its history in<br />

the war, it’s had a lot to do<br />

with Lyttelton. It was a part of<br />

Lyttelton scenery for years,” Mr<br />

Williams said.<br />

He is a keen boatie and<br />

snapped up the opportunity to<br />

BACK IN BUSINESS: The<br />

Nautilus was launched for<br />

the first time in five years last<br />

month. PHOTOS: MARITIME<br />

MUSEUM & CHRISTCHURCH<br />

CITY LIBRARIES<br />

buy the vessel two decades ago.<br />

He has invested big money<br />

and man hours into restoring<br />

the historic launch over the<br />

years, cementing its place in the<br />

harbour.<br />

“Anyone involved in boating<br />

in this area would know about<br />

it,” he said.<br />

In 2011, Mr Williams gifted<br />

the Nautilus to the New Zealand<br />

Maritime Museum so its history<br />

could be preserved.<br />

“It’s a priceless little boat and<br />

I wanted to make sure it was<br />

looked after. She’s a part of national<br />

history,” he said.<br />

The museum’s ‘Wednesday<br />

old boys’ staff put 46,000 hours<br />

of volunteer work and $200,000<br />

into restoring the run-down<br />

Nautilus.<br />

“It’ll go another 100 years.”<br />

It’s the newest member of the<br />

museum and was re-launched<br />

last month at the Royal New<br />

Zealand Navy’s 75th anniversary.<br />

It will be open for public<br />

sailings from <strong>November</strong> 20.<br />

Call to improve<br />

evacuation process<br />

• By Annabelle Dick<br />

REFUGEES FROM suburbs<br />

across the city, sought shelter<br />

at Mt Pleasant school after<br />

Monday morning’s tsunami<br />

evacuation.<br />

The school was opened by<br />

the community response team<br />

after tsunami sirens warned<br />

people to move to higher ground<br />

at 2am.<br />

About 200 people from<br />

Woolston, Southshore, New<br />

Brighton, Brookhaven, Bromley<br />

sought shelter at the school until<br />

it was safe to go home.<br />

Residents were evacuated<br />

after the 7.5 magnitude earthquake,<br />

centred in Waiau that<br />

struck at 12.02am. Police went<br />

street by street in vehicles<br />

checking to ensure people had<br />

evacuated.<br />

About 20,000 residents live in<br />

the evacuation area from Ferrymead<br />

to Taylor’s Mistake, said<br />

the city council yesterday.<br />

Residents in Redcliffs and<br />

Sumner also pulled together<br />

after fleeing to the hills.<br />

Many coastline residents spent<br />

the morning in cars on the hills<br />

surrounding Sumner, Redcliffs<br />

and Moncks <strong>Bay</strong> with the all<br />

clear finally given around 9am<br />

that morning.<br />

Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board member<br />

Darrell Latham said a lot of<br />

Sumner residents stayed at home<br />

after the shake because<br />

no tsunami warning was put<br />

out.<br />

There was conflicting information<br />

from the Ministry of Civil<br />

Defence and Emergency Management<br />

who said people should<br />

go inland or seek refuge on hills,<br />

while the city council said no<br />

evacuations were required.<br />

This changed at 2am when the<br />

tsunami sirens sounded.<br />

He’s written to Mayor Lianne<br />

Dalziel on behalf of the board<br />

and the Sumner Community<br />

Residents Association to fix<br />

processes before the next quake.<br />

“This caused confusion<br />

for residents. While the<br />

ultimate responsibility rests<br />

on individual residents to self<br />

evacuate it was not in any way<br />

helped by the obvious confusion<br />

and mixed messages received,”<br />

he said.<br />

“A delay activating the tsunami<br />

warning siren could have<br />

been life threatening. We can do<br />

better than this.”<br />

of 23 port residents<br />

to be immortalised in<br />

the Lyttelton Redux<br />

exhibition.<br />

WELL-KNOWN residents,<br />

including singer-songwriter<br />

Marlon Williams, have been<br />

transformed into early settlers<br />

as part of the Lyttelton Redux<br />

exhibition.<br />

Lyttelton artist Julia Holden<br />

painted 23 residents, including<br />

Williams, Sergeant Dave<br />

Knowles and former community<br />

board chairwoman Paula Smith,<br />

turning them into early Lyttelton<br />

settlers.<br />

“Using non-toxic, acrylic<br />

house paints, I painted directly<br />

onto the person using them<br />

as the canvas and then photographed<br />

the result bringing the<br />

past into the present in a new,<br />

contemporary portrait,” Ms<br />

Holden said.<br />

Clare and Jeremy Dyer, who<br />

own Governors <strong>Bay</strong> Hotel, and<br />

son Louis Dyer, who owns Civil<br />

& Naval, all participated.<br />

The Dyer family was one of the<br />

first to arrive by ship in Lyttelton<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> and it’s believed Dyers<br />

Pass Rd was also named after<br />

them.<br />

The couple were chosen to depict<br />

‘The Governor: John Robert<br />

Godley’ and ‘The Governor’s<br />

Wife: Charlotte Godley.’<br />

“The great reveal was the exhibition.<br />

Seeing it up front . . . it’s<br />

an amazing body of work. I was<br />

pretty blown away, it was pretty<br />

cool,” Mr Dyer said.<br />

His son Louis Dyer was<br />

painted as ‘The Colonist: Edward<br />

Gibbon Wakefield.’<br />

‘The Governor’ and ‘The Governor’s<br />

Wife’ sit at Civil & Naval<br />

and The Colonist is based in The<br />

British Hotel.<br />

‘It’s a nice context for us being<br />

in our son’s bar,” Mr Dyer said.<br />

The works are based on original<br />

portraits of historic residents.<br />

The portraits are spread<br />

around different Lyttelton locations<br />

for residents to visit.<br />

All of the portraits are for sale<br />

and limited edition prints are<br />

also being sold.<br />

The proceeds will go to the<br />

Lyttelton Museum.<br />

Lyttelton teen named dux,<br />

earns varsity scholarships<br />

• By Annabelle Dick<br />

A LYTTELTON teenager has<br />

been given a head start to a<br />

science career after taking<br />

away top honours at Linwood<br />

College’s end of year awards.<br />

Ruby Kerr, 18, was awarded<br />

the top prize of dux, as well as<br />

the Linwood College Literary<br />

Cup and Victoria University<br />

achiever’s scholarship at the<br />

prize-giving last month.<br />

Ruby was blown away to<br />

hear she’d received the accolades,<br />

which will pay for part<br />

of her university tuition.<br />

“It was very overwhelming.<br />

I didn’t expect it. I’ve come<br />

from a small school and never<br />

thought I was very smart so<br />

getting those awards was a<br />

huge achievement,” she said.<br />

The year 13 student attended<br />

Lyttelton’s St Joseph’s School<br />

until she was 11-years-old.<br />

Ruby then moved to Lyttelton<br />

Main School because St<br />

Joseph’s closed due to its small<br />

roll of 20 pupils.<br />

“It was so small that we only<br />

had two classrooms, so when<br />

I moved to Lyttelton Main, I<br />

was behind everybody else. I<br />

had no idea what I was doing<br />

and I used to get so stressed<br />

out about school work that I<br />

used to cry,” she said.<br />

“So getting the dux award<br />

ACHIEVER: Ruby Kerr received two scholarships that will<br />

cover some of her tertiary study costs. ​<br />

and my other awards was a big<br />

deal to me because it showed<br />

me I could do it and achieve<br />

anything.”<br />

As the daughter of an acupuncturist,<br />

Ruby has always<br />

been deeply interested in the<br />

sciences.<br />

While studying biology,<br />

chemistry and physics at<br />

Linwood College, she realised<br />

how much she loved biology.<br />

At the same time, she<br />

became passionate about environmental<br />

issues and wants to<br />

combine those interests into a<br />

career.<br />

“It’s being able to know how<br />

everything works. With science<br />

you can figure out things<br />

and you gain a bigger understanding<br />

of the world around<br />

you,” she said.<br />

Ruby plans on studying a<br />

Bachelor of Science with a<br />

double major in environmental<br />

studies and biology at Victoria<br />

University of Wellington<br />

next year. The achiever’s<br />

scholarship will cover her first<br />

year of tertiary study there.<br />

She’s also considering Canterbury<br />

University, as the dux<br />

award comes with a scholarship<br />

of a paid year of study at<br />

a South Island university and<br />

living costs. Ruby has several<br />

more external exams to go before<br />

graduating from Linwood<br />

College later this year.<br />

Mental health support needed<br />

Green MP<br />

Eugenie<br />

Sage talks<br />

about<br />

Monday<br />

morning’s<br />

earthquakes<br />

and where<br />

to seek help<br />

if you’re<br />

feeling<br />

stressed.<br />

Well that was an unpleasant<br />

start to the week. Big hugs to<br />

everyone in Kaikoura, Marlborough,<br />

North Canterbury and<br />

Wellington, living through aftershocks,<br />

dealing with damage and<br />

loss, and grappling with how to<br />

repair hearts, homes, businesses,<br />

and infrastructure.<br />

Well done to folk who helped<br />

support Christchurch residents<br />

who had to leave home as a result<br />

of the tsunami warnings.<br />

I’m writing this on Monday<br />

morning with little information<br />

on the full extent of damage<br />

further north. Here in Christchurch,<br />

people’s emotional and<br />

psychological wellbeing has<br />

probably taken a bigger hit from<br />

the long, rolling earthquake<br />

than buildings, roads and other<br />

infrastructure.<br />

Wherever you are – kindness<br />

is contagious. Reaching out to<br />

friends, family and neighbours<br />

for a cup of tea or coffee, contact<br />

and conversation can help reduce<br />

post-quake stress. So can sticking<br />

to daily and weekly routines<br />

and staying active – taking a<br />

walk, enjoying nature.<br />

The All Right? health promotion<br />

campaign and the Mental<br />

Health Foundation’s five ways<br />

to wellbeing are good sources of<br />

practical advice on how to stay<br />

well.<br />

But for some that won’t be<br />

enough. There has been a major<br />

increase in demand for mental<br />

health services in Christchurch<br />

after the 2011 quakes, especially<br />

among young people. They seek<br />

help for a range of issues, including<br />

severe depression, anxiety,<br />

self-harm and suicidal thoughts.<br />

New figures show that young<br />

people are facing unreasonably<br />

long waiting times to receive<br />

follow-up appointments after<br />

seeking help. In the last year, up<br />

to 3297 young people around<br />

New Zealand had to wait longer<br />

than eight weeks to have a<br />

second face-to-face appointment<br />

with a medical professional after<br />

seeking help. Canterbury was<br />

one of four areas with the longest<br />

waiting times.<br />

No one should not have to wait<br />

weeks on end to get the medical<br />

help they need. Our mental<br />

health professionals do a fantastic<br />

job but services are stretched<br />

and struggling.<br />

This is partly because Government<br />

has cut the overall health<br />

budget, scrapped the Mental<br />

Health Commission and focused<br />

resources on targets that don’t<br />

include mental health.<br />

We need better funding for<br />

the Canterbury District Health<br />

Board and community services.<br />

And we need a nationwide inquiry<br />

into mental health services<br />

similar to the Mason Report in<br />

the 90s, to ensure that New Zealanders<br />

can access the support<br />

they need.<br />

Free help is available. Phone<br />

Readers respond to<br />

last week’s article on<br />

Redcliffs School possibly<br />

being located on a Maori<br />

burial site at Redcliffs<br />

Park.<br />

Shanna Olsen-Reeder –<br />

Who cares about property values?<br />

I can’t believe that’s people’s<br />

main concern rather than the<br />

disrespectful act of building<br />

over a cemetery.<br />

Pamela Neil – I can not<br />

believe all this carry on over<br />

a school site. It will devalue<br />

properties in the area if a school<br />

is built on the park and if part of<br />

it is a burial ground from many<br />

years ago, Maori will take more<br />

time to confirm this. Leave<br />

the school where it is! Nearly<br />

seven years have gone by and<br />

a generation of children have<br />

been deprived of attending the<br />

school. Is there someone who<br />

can make sensible and binding<br />

decisions in Christchurch. I<br />

am embarrassed to say I come<br />

from this once beautiful city. It<br />

is now a hotchpotch of cheaply<br />

constructed, ugly housing and<br />

bad town planning. Get on with<br />

the rebuild before people die<br />

waiting.<br />

Trevor Walmsley – Loose<br />

$300,000 to $400,000 in property<br />

values – many people in<br />

New Zealand can’t even afford<br />

to own a house.<br />

Karl Dean – People are so<br />

selfish these days, honestly won’t<br />

it increase your value being<br />

within walking distance of the<br />

school?<br />

Spring Is In The Air<br />

Market Comment with Craig Prier<br />

October saw a slightly subdued market for us with sales numbers at lower levels than expected.<br />

This seemed to be mirrored across other marketplaces around the country. Commentators<br />

are suggesting it may be as a result of new LVR’s (loan value ratios) having an effect and the<br />

number of loan pre-approvals slowing down. However, as always, good properties that are<br />

well marketed still seem to attract the most interest. Time and again we see great results<br />

being achieved for vendors who choose to make the effort of presenting their property and<br />

investing in high profile marketing campaigns. Whether it is an auction or deadline sale the<br />

general feeling among vendors is that marketing their property without a price avoids the risk<br />

of underselling. Buyers are able to compete for the property either by bidding at auction or putting<br />

their best offer forward in a deadline sale.<br />

Brightening Christmas<br />

with A Little Ray of Giving<br />

At a time of year when the gift of giving is in the spotlight, the team<br />

here at Ray White Ferrymead are doing our bit to help out families<br />

who are in a less fortunate situation than others. It’s the second year<br />

we are taking part in this national charity initiative ‘A Little Ray of<br />

Giving’ and we’re aiming to making this year bigger and better than<br />

last year!<br />

“With the outstanding support from the beach, hill and harbour<br />

suburbs last year our office collected the most gifts of any Ray White<br />

office in New Zealand! This year we’re aiming to keep that top spot<br />

and are once more calling on the local community to embrace the<br />

giving season and dig deep for those who need it most” said Principal<br />

Craig Prier.<br />

To help spread the Christmas cheer, it’s as simple as bringing<br />

something suitable for a child or teenager into the Ray White<br />

Ferrymead office from 1-22 December, and stashing it under the<br />

Christmas tree.<br />

We will start collecting on Dec 1st through to Dec 22nd 20<strong>16</strong>.<br />

Environment lesson for<br />

pupils at Sumner Beach<br />

SUMNER SCHOOL’S<br />

Envirogroup pupils attended<br />

a city council education<br />

lesson to learn about Sumner<br />

Beach’s sand dunes.<br />

Dunes are created by the<br />

sand that blows down the<br />

beach from onshore winds.<br />

Sand dunes protect from<br />

the sand that comes flying<br />

out of the beach and into the<br />

streets, by catching it. Pupils<br />

found out about why they<br />

are important and how they<br />

can be protected.<br />

They learnt that sand<br />

dunes are an important part<br />

of the beach for people, native<br />

trees, and the animals<br />

that live in them.<br />

Car parking restrictions likely<br />

near popular Port Hills track<br />

• By Bridget Rutherford and<br />

Caitlin Miles<br />

USING A popular Port Hills<br />

track could become more<br />

difficult with a plan to install no<br />

stopping restrictions on nearby<br />

streets.<br />

The city council is looking to<br />

install yellow no stopping lines<br />

on most of Rapaki Rd and part<br />

of Montgomery Tce.<br />

Rapaki Rd is the main access<br />

way to Rapaki Track, which is<br />

popular with walkers, runners<br />

and mountain-bikers, especially<br />

on the weekends.<br />

However, residents say<br />

track users parking on the<br />

road made it narrow and<br />

dangerous.<br />

Rapaki Rd resident Mike<br />

Smith said that even with<br />

the yellow lines across<br />

from his house it can be hard<br />

for him to get in and out of his<br />

driveway with people parking<br />

over the lines.<br />

He said the proposed changes<br />

are a good way to tackle the<br />

problem.<br />

“It can not be tolerated<br />

because people will get hurt if<br />

something doesn’t change,” Mr<br />

Smith said.<br />

Mr Smith said he is concerned<br />

about emergency services being<br />

able to get to the top of the track<br />

to assist people.<br />

As a result, the city council<br />

has put the plan out for public<br />

consultation to get feedback<br />

before it approves the changes.<br />

The restrictions would run<br />

along the left side of the road<br />

from Centaurus Rd to Montgomery<br />

Tce, and on the right<br />

hand side on the top stretch of<br />

the road.<br />

Montgomery Tce would also<br />

have restrictions on the left<br />

hand side of the road leading to<br />

Erewhon Tce.<br />

The city council hopes the<br />

changes would improve<br />

safety, make more room<br />

for vehicles to manoeuvre,<br />

and improve access<br />

to properties.<br />

Councillor Tim<br />

Scandrett (left) said<br />

he doesn’t know why<br />

people who plan to<br />

walk Rapaki Track park at the<br />

very start of the track when they<br />

could park elsewhere and get<br />

more exercise.<br />

“It seems insane that people<br />

drive up there to walk and be<br />

fit but they won’t park at the<br />

bottom (of Rapaki Rd),” Cr<br />

Scandrett said.<br />

He said it is welcome news for<br />

residents along the road.<br />

Mr Smith said he hopes this<br />

will make the improvements<br />

that many residents have wanted<br />

for a long time.<br />

​Sumner snatch Challenge<br />

Trophy in tight contest<br />

• By Fraser Walker-Pearce<br />

SUMNER’S OPENING batsman<br />

Marcus Thompson was the<br />

difference in the side’s Senior<br />

A Challenge Trophy winning<br />

match on Saturday.<br />

The 45-over match between<br />

Sumner and Lancaster Park Addington<br />

went down to the final<br />

over after Sumner lost the toss<br />

and were sent in to bat.<br />

Thompson scored 14 boundaries<br />

in his 95 runs off 133 deliveries. His<br />

opening partner Ethan Vickery<br />

managed 23 off 24 deliveries before<br />

being trapped lbw.<br />

Thompson batted on at St<br />

Leonards Square and led the side<br />

to a total of 221/8, when at one<br />

point they were struggling at<br />

57/4.<br />

Addington lost wickets<br />

regularly during its run<br />

chase through the bowling<br />

of Dan Vann, who took three<br />

wickets.<br />

The standout batsman for<br />

Addington was also an opener.<br />

Stewart van Zenten kept the<br />

scores close throughout the<br />

second innings with his 105 from<br />

115 deliveries.<br />

Dean Smith took the final wicket<br />

Thompson credited the<br />

then protected their total with<br />

Experts restore that<br />

“winning smile”<br />

MEETING PEOPLE for the first time,<br />

interacting with others on social occasions,<br />

going for a job interview - in all these<br />

situations your smile is the most important<br />

part of you.<br />

Or perhaps, on a lighter note, you<br />

might be scaring yourself with your ‘selfie’<br />

because your smile is not as attractive as it<br />

should be, due to missing or broken teeth.<br />

Perhaps it’s time for a visit to Denture<br />

South in Barrington, where the experts can<br />

give you that winning smile back.<br />

Clinical dental technician, Andrew<br />

Johnson and associate Janice ling can<br />

provide you with a highly personalised<br />

experience. We have a lot of knowledge<br />

and experience that can help guide you<br />

through the process.<br />

For people who have had dentures for a<br />

while and are finding they frequently need<br />

to buy denture adhesive to keep them in<br />

place, Andrew advises having the dentures<br />

relined so they will fit better. As he points<br />

out, the money spent on denture adhesive<br />

over 12 months would easily cover the cost<br />

of having your dentures refitted.<br />

Denture South has been providing a full<br />

range of denture services for the residents<br />

of Christchurch for over 13 years. These<br />

services include first-time immediate<br />

dentures, full replacement dentures, partial<br />

plates and sports mouth-guards.<br />

Many Denture South clients come<br />

through word-of-mouth referral, an<br />

indication of the level of satisfaction that’s<br />

provided there. Coming into Christmas<br />

we will be open and available for all<br />

adjustments for our existing patients in the<br />

final week, making for a great Christmas.<br />

PAGE 25<br />

Sticks and stones will<br />

break our bones but<br />

names will never hurt us?<br />

This has always been a common<br />

saying that adults have offered to<br />

children in situations where they have<br />

received hurtful comments or been<br />

called hurtful names. We all know the<br />

concept behind such a saying, and if<br />

a child is strong enough to hear this<br />

and soldier on then good on them.<br />

The reality though for most of us (not<br />

just our children) is that words can<br />

hurt (a lot).<br />

Social communications have<br />

developed significantly since I was<br />

a child at school. Back then (which<br />

was actually not too long ago) there<br />

were no cell phones and there was<br />

no internet . Communications were<br />

face-to-face in the playground, over<br />

the phone (which had a cord) in<br />

the hallway before bedtime, written<br />

on notes and passed around a<br />

classroom, or by snail mail. Now,<br />

our communication methods can be<br />

summarised in two succinct words –<br />

‘social media’.<br />

As a result of the ever increasing<br />

social media, and specifically<br />

following the “roastbusters” scandal<br />

in 2013, a new piece of legislation<br />

was enacted in July 2015 - the<br />

Harmful Digital Communications<br />

Act 2015 (the Act). The Act aims to<br />

provide victims of hurtful facebook<br />

posts, text messages or other digital<br />

communications quick and efficient<br />

resolution or remedy. In addition it<br />

creates new criminal offences.<br />

Although some of the provisions of<br />

the Act came into force in 2015, it<br />

will not be until Monday 21 <strong>November</strong><br />

20<strong>16</strong> that it will be fully operational.<br />

Under the Act, a government<br />

approved agency, Netsafe, will be the<br />

organisation responsible for receiving<br />

and investigating complaints brought<br />

under the Act. Although Netsafe<br />

will not have any real enforcement<br />

powers, its purpose is of a civil nature<br />

to investigate complaints and use<br />

negotiation and mediation to try to<br />

resolve the complaints efficiently.<br />

Applications may also be made to<br />

the District Court for orders such as<br />

requiring the defendant to take down<br />

the content or refrain from posting<br />

content, making a correction or<br />

providing an apology. Applications<br />

can be made by an individual, a<br />

parent or guardian of the individual,<br />

the police and even the individual’s<br />

school. Not complying with such an<br />

order will constitute an offence.<br />

The Court can also find a defendant<br />

guilty of a criminal offence if their<br />

online posting or texting:<br />

1. was made with the intent to cause<br />

harm, and<br />

2. would cause harm to a reasonable<br />

person in the same position as<br />

their victim, and<br />

3. harm was actually caused to the<br />

victim.<br />

The penalties for such a conviction<br />

are up to two years in prison, or a fine<br />

of up to $50,000 (for an individual).<br />

The Act also sets out 10<br />

‘Communication Principles’ which<br />

both Netsafe and the District Court<br />

are required to consider when<br />

exercising their roles under the Act.<br />

These Communication Principles are<br />

fairly broad and provide that a digital<br />

communication should not:<br />

1. Disclose sensitive personal facts<br />

about someone.<br />

2. Be threatening, intimidating or<br />

menacing.<br />

3. Be grossly offensive to a<br />

reasonable person in the position<br />

of the individual affected.<br />

4. Be indecent or obscene.<br />

5. Be used to harass an individual.<br />

6. Make a false allegation.<br />

7. Contain a matter that is published<br />

in breach of confidence.<br />

8. Incite or encourage anyone to send<br />

a message to an individual for the<br />

purpose of causing harm to the<br />

individual.<br />

9. Incite or encourage an individual to<br />

commit suicide.<br />

10. Denigrate an individual by reason<br />

of his or her colour, race, ethnic or<br />

national origins, religion, gender,<br />

sexual orientation, or disability.<br />

There have already been a number of<br />

convictions under the Act including<br />

an 18 year old convicted of sending<br />

Skype messages to his ex-girlfriend<br />

threatening to send pictures of her<br />

naked to her mother; and a 28 year<br />

ADVERTORIAL<br />

old was imprisoned for 11 months<br />

after sending a disturbing video to<br />

someone through Facebook.<br />

My children are still young and not<br />

yet subject to such harmful digital<br />

communications (although of course<br />

even now they object to my facebook<br />

posts of them with half their meals on<br />

their faces or running under a hose in<br />

their undies). However, I know the day<br />

will come when I need to tell them<br />

that “sticks and stones will break<br />

their bones but names will never hurt<br />

them”. The thing is though, everyone<br />

has a breaking point, and to have<br />

the possibility of recourse through<br />

Netsafe may be a very helpful avenue<br />

for individuals, parents and schools.<br />

It waits to be seen how many<br />

complaints Netsafe receive going<br />

forward and how efficient they are<br />

in handling them, but providing this<br />

avenue of redress is a positive move<br />

forward. With more awareness too,<br />

this Act will hopefully deter harmful<br />

behaviour in the realm of social<br />

media.<br />

New Hope For Long Term<br />

Back Pain Sufferers<br />

After more than eight years in<br />

New Zealand, Teeter Hang-Ups<br />

have now gained a reputation<br />

for success with long-term<br />

sufferers of Back pain. Inversion<br />

New Zealand was started<br />

eight years ago by Dave and<br />

Nancy Hare, Dave had<br />

suffered over twenty years of<br />

back pain from Degenerated<br />

Discs and had basically given<br />

up and decided to just live<br />

with it. “To me surgery was<br />

never an option” he said “as<br />

long as I still could walk, there<br />

was hope”.<br />

Dave had tried everything;<br />

every time he was overseas<br />

he would search for anything<br />

that could possibly help.<br />

While on one of these<br />

overseas trips eight years ago,<br />

Dave discovered the Teeter<br />

Hang-Ups. “The first time I<br />

tried it, the pain disappeared<br />

and I was completely pain<br />

free for about 30 minutes,<br />

nothing had done that” he<br />

told me. Dave never believed<br />

it would fix him, “as specialists<br />

had told me it was irreversible,<br />

I now knew I had a place<br />

to go every time I wanted<br />

some serious relief”.<br />

To Dave’s surprise the more<br />

he used the table the longer<br />

the pain stayed away, until<br />

after nearly three months he<br />

was completely pain free, “I<br />

couldn’t believe it’ he told me<br />

“I had spent large amounts of<br />

money on every form of treatment<br />

available and here<br />

was something I had never<br />

heard of sorting it out for<br />

me in a very short period of<br />

time” It was then Dave<br />

decided to introduce Teeter<br />

into New Zealand and Inversion<br />

NZ was born.<br />

Over the years INZ have<br />

helped thousands of people<br />

get some serious relief and<br />

have seen results in not only<br />

backs, but necks, hips,<br />

knees, posture, circulation,<br />

increased height, blood<br />

pressure and lots more.<br />

“We have testimonials from<br />

people with over fifty years<br />

of back problems and even<br />

have them in a number of<br />

schools in New Zealand for<br />

their special needs children”<br />

he told me, “the blood to the<br />

brain helps these kids and<br />

the results are excellent”<br />

What this means for the<br />

aging population is that it<br />

helps maintain the health of<br />

the brain as we all get older.<br />

Dave told me that he<br />

realised that, had he not<br />

tried the Teeter for himself<br />

he would still be suffering, “I<br />

would still be a miserable<br />

grumpy bugger, living with<br />

pain, that is why we do the<br />

shows, people need to try it<br />

for themselves” he told me<br />

“most people actually get<br />

off with the pain either gone<br />

or considerably less” he said<br />

“we let the tables do the<br />

talking”<br />

IT IS PURE LOGIC AS TO HOW<br />

THE TEETER TABLE WORKS<br />

Discs: It uses gravity to apply traction,<br />

the traction gently opens the discs and as<br />

they open up they create suction, this<br />

suction draws fluid from the surrounding<br />

tissue back into the discs, re-hydrating<br />

them. This is the key! Discs do not have<br />

their own blood supply, they rely on<br />

transfer of fluid from the surrounding<br />

tissue to keep them healthy and hydrated<br />

and over the years as discs get thinner with<br />

age, they lose the ability to take on fluid<br />

(just like squeezing a sponge) and they<br />

start to de-hydrate.<br />

De-Hydrated discs are less flexible, they are<br />

harder, more prone to injury, they interfere<br />

with nerve roots creating pain and<br />

ultimately the de-hydration causes degeneration.<br />

The Teeter Inversion table slowly<br />

and gently brings the hydration back into<br />

the discs, plumping them up. This brings<br />

back lost height (most people will regain<br />

around 2 CM of height), it separates the<br />

nerve roots far more effectively and returns<br />

quality of life<br />

Muscles: A lot of pain is muscular, when<br />

muscles are stressed they become tight<br />

which restricts the flow of blood and lymph<br />

through the muscles so toxins build up,<br />

Co2 and Lactic Acid. Traction opens up the<br />

muscles, Rhythmic Traction, is a gentle<br />

rocking motion that stimulates circulation<br />

and encourages blood flow through the<br />

muscles, which clears the lactic acid into<br />

your lymph system where it stimulates<br />

lymph flow and deals with it. Most people<br />

with serious neck issues see a large<br />

improvement after only one treatment.<br />

Frank Harwood (84) of Turangi using his Teeter, Frank has been<br />

Inverting for over eight years and has found it keeps him young<br />

Posture: Poor posture is one of the<br />

major cases of pain and is a major contributor<br />

to the deterioration of the body with<br />

age. A difference in leg length causes most<br />

of the hip and knee issues, as they continue<br />

to place uneven loads on the joints;<br />

similar to the wheels out of alignment on<br />

your car.<br />

Trying to correct posture is extremely<br />

difficult due to muscle memory, as it<br />

constantly pulls the muscles back to where<br />

they were. At a level of 40 degrees or more<br />

on the Teeter, the muscle groups open up<br />

and eventually come back into alignment,<br />

using the table daily, does not allow the<br />

muscle memory to pull them back out of<br />

alignment and slowly the muscles start to<br />

lose their memory and go with the flow,<br />

allowing the body to come back into<br />

correct posture. Then using the table once a<br />

day will ensure it is kept there.<br />

This is pure logic, if a machine is out of<br />

alignment it does not last long, the only<br />

difference between the body and a<br />

machine is that the body is constantly<br />

repairing itself, however if the wear and<br />

tear on the body is greater than the body’s<br />

ability to repair itself, it is a slow decline.<br />

The Teeter slowly brings the body out of its<br />

decline and allows the body to repair itself,<br />

resulting in a far healthier life.<br />

If you are serious about investing in your<br />

health and really sorting your issues out,<br />

come see us at one of our local roadshows,<br />

you have nothing to lose and chances are, a<br />

lot to gain.<br />

TESTIMONIAL<br />

DEAR DAVE AND NANCY<br />

In 2008 I had been living with a serious lower back pain for<br />

many years due to two discs with serious degeneration and<br />

was scheduled for a double spinal fusion at a cost of<br />

$48,000. The Specialist had recommended many lifestyle<br />

changes including changing my profession, which was not<br />

practical as I own my own business.<br />

At the Waikato Home Show I experienced a demonstration<br />

on a Teeter Inversion Table by Dave and Nancy Hare. To me<br />

the effect was amazing, I actually experienced some serious<br />

relief which lasted for an hour or two, I was told that the<br />

relief would last longer with time as long as I used the table<br />

regularly, so with the surgery scheduled for 12 weeks time,<br />

having nothing to lose and a lot to gain I purchased a Teeter.<br />

Four years on I still use my table on a daily basis, my back is<br />

as strong as ever with very little or completely no pain, I am<br />

still at my same profession and working as hard as ever and<br />

most importantly I did not have the surgery. I consider the<br />

purchase of my Teeter has been one of my greatest<br />

investments, not only has it enabled me to avoid serious and<br />

costly surgery, it has kept me in my profession and it has<br />

brought my health back.<br />

Thank you very much for the opportunity.<br />

Very best regards<br />

Here in New Zealand,<br />

Dr Giresh Kanji, one of the countries most<br />

respected Pain Specialists completed a PhD on<br />

how humans experience pain and then<br />

researched lower back pain, writing "Fix Your<br />

Back" and then spent a few years researching<br />

neck pain, headache and migraine and wrote<br />

"Fix Your Neck Pain, Headache & Migraine",<br />

both books are in most bookstores.<br />

Dr Kanji discovered in his research that the disc<br />

is the most likely source of low back pain and<br />

Inversion showed the best results of all the trials<br />

conducted. Three studies showed a 60%<br />

reduction in pain and one showed a 75%<br />

reduction in surgery for people with disc<br />

prolapse.<br />

Dr Kanji has personally been using the Teeter<br />

Inversion tables for his own low back pain, has<br />

Teeter Inversion tables at both of his clinics in<br />

Wellington (The Sports and Pain Clinic) and has<br />

had such success that he is now conducting the<br />

largest study in the World on Inversion Therapy.<br />

In his own words, "these things are gold and<br />

inversion should be a first line treatment for low<br />

back pain”.<br />
