MCCORMACKS BAY residents
appear unlikely to spend
$50,000 to appeal against a
kindergarten being built in their
area.
They spent months trying to
stop Kidsfirst setting up a 248 sq
m kindergarten next to the Mt
Pleasant Community Centre,
which they say will block their
view, cause traffic issues and
ground contamination.
But resource consent hearing
commissioner Justine Ashley
has granted Kidsfirst permission
to establish a kindergarten.
Resident Diane Keats said
an appeal to Environment
Canterbury against the decision
couldn’t proceed because of the
cost, $50,000.
“We’re not appealing it because
we’d need $50,000,” she
said.
Mrs Keats said they feel
defeated.
“I’ve met a lot of residents
around here and they think it’s
absolutely ridiculous. But what
do you do? There’s nothing we
can do,” she said.
The centre will sit 30m west
of the former kindergarten and
will run longer from 8am to
5pm.
The kindergarten will also cater
to 50 children, which is more
than their previous site which
allowed a maximum of 30.

News..........................3, 7 & 10
LAST WEEK we profiled a
good guy from Sumner in Tony
Murdoch.
Today we feature another: Scott
Razor Robertson on pages 4-5.
Razor is coaching the Crusaders
next season, and if his tenure with
Canterbury and the style they
have played under his guidance is
anything to go by, the Crusaders
will be very, very tough to beat in
2017.
But reporter Bridget Rutherford
gets much more out of Razor than
just rugby. He’s a good talker and
communicator (no wonder he’s a
good sports coach) and he reveals
a number of interesting tidbits, including
that famous or infamous
breakdancing thing of his, and
how he got his nickname.
He even took the Ranfurly
Shield down to Our Lady Star of
the Sea School where his children
attend (see page 14).

Quake affects tourist numbers
BAY HARBOUR
In Brief
PAGE 3
• By Annabelle Dick
AKAROA’S tourism industry
has been up and down as
a result of this month’s 7.8
magnitude earthquake.
A number of businesses have
experienced a drop in numbers
as visitors cancel trips to Akaroa
fearing more earthquakes in
Canterbury.
But some have seen an increase
in bookings as business
has stalled in Canterbury’s other
tourist-friendly coastal town
Kaikoura.
Akaroa has become the main
hub for marine animal encounters
in the region following the
North Canterbury earthquakes.
Kaikoura’s tourism industry is
in disarray while the region is in
a state of emergency.
Hanmer
Springs has
seen a large decrease
in visitor
numbers due to
its proximity to
the epicentre.
Dolphin Encounter Kaikoura
and Whale Watch Kaikoura are
closed until further notice due
to extensive damage caused to
the township.
Christchurch i-SITE has been
referring tourists, planning
to go to Kaikoura, to Akaroa
instead.
Black Cat Cruises, which
offers dolphin watching and
swimming experiences, has had
to increase capacity due to the
demand.
“People that were planning on
going to Kaikoura are now coming
to Akaroa. We’re launching
one of our boats a little
earlier than planned,” sales and
marketing manager Natasha
Lombart (left) said.
The company usually runs
three boats in a season and
introduces a fourth just before
Christmas – but the extra fleet
has been launched two weeks
early.
“There is a demand for our
swim service from Kaikoura
passengers. The boats take up

to 99 passengers, but with the
dolphin swim we can only take
up to 12,” Miss Lombart said.
Black Cat Cruises didn’t
know how much business had
increased by, as it usually sees
a rise over the summer period
regardless.
“It’s good we can provide this
service close by in Canterbury
but at the same time no one
wants to benefit from something
like this.”
Meanwhile, Akaroa Criterion
Motel owner Felicity Taylor
owner said she hasn’t seen as
many benefits following the
tragedy in Kaikoura.
“We’ve had some bookings
from people who were meant
to go to Kaikoura and their

to keep up with demand for

agents have recommend they
come here. At the same time
we’ve had lots of cancellations
as well from people nervous to
come here because of the earthquakes,”
Mrs Taylor said.
Bully Hayes duty manager
Tong Hou said the eatery has
had customers who’ve come
to Akaroa as an alternative to
Kaikoura.
But they’ve also seen a drop
in numbers as trips have been
cancelled due to State Highway
1 being closed along the top half
of South Island’s coastline.
“It hasn’t been that much busier
– the day after the earthquake
we had cancellations from tourist
groups who were due to come
here from the north.”
CENTRE SET TO OPEN
THe Heathcote Valley
Community Centre is set to
open in two weeks. The centre
will also include a volunteer
library and has been built on
the Bridle Path Rd site of the
former community centre. The
previous centre and library
were demolished following the
February 22, 2011, earthquake.
Work began on site at the end
of June this year to create a
new facility which will have
several meeting areas, a kitchen,
bathroom facilities along with
a large deck. The centre will be
opened at 5.30pm on December
14.
PLAQUE UNVEILING
A plaque will be unveiled tomorrow
to honour Collett’s Corner
in Lyttelton. Collett’s Chemist,
opened by D.E.L Collett, sat on
the corner of London St and
Oxford St and was often referred
to as Collett’s Corner. The
pharmacy treated ship crewmen
with concocted remedies.
The plaque unveiling will mark
105 years since the chemist
opened on December 1, 1911.

Toomey and Banks Peninsula
Community Board chairwoman
Christine Wilson will mark the
now-vacant corner with a plaque
funded by the city council.

Our People
Seaside environment keeps
Sumner’s Scott Robertson is gearing up for
his first season coaching his old team, the
Crusaders. Bridget Rutherford spoke to him
about his goals for the season, where he
learned to breakdance and whether he is a
true Cantabrian yet
HOME: Scott Robertson
says Sumner is a great
place to live, and enjoys
the surf and community.
So what have you been doing
in the lead up to pre-season
training?
I recovered after the week of
the Mitre 10 Cup final physically,
mentally and I detoxed
as well (laughs), it was a good
celebration. But it was a great
way to finish a number of years
of Canterbury rugby. Then in
the second week I went over to
the Roosters in the NRL to do a
bit of professional development
and leadership, and work around
defence so I could up-skill myself
coming into the season. New
Zealand Rugby Union has a great
relationship with clubs around
Australasia, and Sydney had
some good surf. It was a great
way to transition from Mitre 10
Cup to Super Rugby and start
our planning phase.
What do you think will be the
toughest part of your new role
at the Crusaders next season?
Probably knowing myself, I’ll
bring a lot of energy and creative
new ideas. So I’ve got to make
sure I get the balance right and
bring what I need, and keep it to
the critical few things that will
make the difference.
The Crusaders have a proud
and successful history, does
that add any pressure?
Expectations are great, I love
it. I had it with Canterbury that
we’d go and be successful, and
with that comes high standards
and brings a bit of pressure you
can use to create an edge. If
there were no expectations I just
wouldn’t feel the same.
What are your goals for the
season?
My philosophy is to make
people better on and off the
field. I just want the team to
perform and make sure when
we’re under pressure in these
critical moments we win those.
It’s something we haven’t nailed,
and we’ve had opportunities but
haven’t taken them. That excites
me.
And you played for the Crusaders
and Canterbury back in
the day, did you ever see yourself
coaching them?
Yes. Back in 1996 and 97 I
would walk in with a playbook
and try and create new plays and
see new ways of doing things.
It’s the way it is now, it’s just a
natural progression. It’s been a
pathway; it’s taken a considerable
amount of time to get here from
retiring nine years ago. I’ve done
a lot of hours.
Is this a stepping stone to
coach the All Blacks?
The All Blacks is a totally different
level and experience is
critical. A lot of the coaches
have been overseas and had a
lot of different experiences with
different cultures and competitions.
With the All Blacks you
play international teams and you
need to understand that environment.
Coaching overseas gives
you a chance to experience that.
I’m in no rush, I’d love to do that
but I could see myself coaching
afar first.
Being a former Crusader,
does it make you a bit more
patriotic while coaching?
Of course – I shed a lot of
blood, cartilage and meniscus
with the Crusaders. It was successful,
I loved it and it made me
a better person. Some of my best
mates and memories were with
that team, it sounds pretty cliche,
but it’s a dream.
And you come from up north
don’t you?
I’m from the Mount
(Maunganui). It’s a bottle top
question – who was the first
person to be drafted for a Super
Team. I made New Zealand
Colts, and Vance Stewart picked
me out and I was drafted and
came to Canterbury.
So are you a Cantabrian now?
People ask me that all the time. I
had a great up-bringing and my
home is the Mount in regards to
childhood friends and things.
But I made my adult connections
down here. My wife’s from down
here and I had my children here.
But I’m really fortunate to have
red and black in my veins.
And you spent a fair bit of
time coaching NZ under-20s. Is
part of that role to groom upand-coming
players?
The object is to develop players,
on and off the field, because
they’re young men and they’ve
got to make some big decisions.
The other was win. If you’re
in the black jersey going to a
tournament, you’re playing for
silverware. I managed to do it
one of the two times. For me,
my biggest learning was our loss
to Ireland – which some other
teams have had too recently
– but it’s a different style and
the preparation is different for
different teams, weather, and
the mindset. I’m a better coach
because I understand that.
Over the years, who is a
young player that you’ve
watched and thought they had a
big future?
The most gifted player I’ve ever
seen is Jordie Barrett. He’s going
to the Hurricanes which is the
second toughest thing for me
outside the Ireland loss. He’s an
extreme talent, and a great kid
with great work ethic.
Better than his brother
Beauden?
I don’t like to compare them.
They’ve got similar skill-sets.
For us it’s a wait and see. I think
what sets Jordie apart is his
mind-set – he’s the ultimate professional
and has an incredible
knack of performing under pressure.
That sets the greats apart.

Scott Robertson
‘Razor’ happy
Did you try and get him to
stay down here?
I spent a lot of time, but his
family was first for him. And
he’ll get to play outside his
brother, his best mate. It was a really
hard and emotional decision
for him and it meant a lot to him
to play for us.
When you were a rookie, who
was a senior player that you
looked up to?
I made a lot of really good
mates and everyone brought a lot
of different things. That group
of players that we had is unlike
any group that’s been together
for a long time. If you look at the
coaches, we had Robbie Deans,
Steve Hansen, Wayne Smith
and they also had success post-
Crusaders. I heard a great quote
– truly inspiring coaches, or the
great coaches, coach a player to
become great coaches, and their
players become coaches. It’s a
generational thing. And from
that group we had myself, Leon
MacDonald, Tabai Matson, Todd
Blackadder, Dave Hewett, Mark
Hammett, Daryl Gibson and
Aaron Mauger. I think the whole
environment helped shape us. It
didn’t just teach us how to play,
but it taught us the game, and
that’s what we’re doing now.
It was that era where the
Crusaders were on the Meadow
Fresh milk cartons – did you
make it onto one of those?
No, I’ve broken my nose too
many times (laughs).
You went and played in
France and Japan following
your time with the AB’s, what
did you learn from your stints
there?
The first year in France I struggled.
I missed the structure of the
Crusaders and I kept asking why
do the French do it this way? But
once I figured that out I ended
up really loving and enjoying it.
I learned French and the French
way. I learned a lot of what I do
now as a coach. It was the same
in Japan, I learned a lot of their
traditions. It made me appreciate
what we’ve got here in New
Zealand, and New Zealand rugby
now. There’s a lot of benefits of

going away and coming back.
Maybe I’ll coach over there one
day.
How’s your Japanese?
My wife’s pretty handy at it, but
I can do the basics.
And the most important question,
where did you learn to
breakdance?
My mum’s got a bit of rhythm.
I never expected to be dancing, it
came from my playing days when
the hoo hay razor ray song was
pulled out. I was put on the spot
and got called out and had to
front up. If we win I’m more than
happy to dance.
Where does the nickname
Razor come from?
It’s a bit of self-promotion,
probably a bit like the dancing.
We used to give ourselves a
couple of nicknames. We’d say
I used to cut people in half and
my shoulders were razor blades.

SLOAN
I created a bit of an alias as Razor
Ray and it’s taken its own little
storylines. So I named myself
(laughs).
And you settled in Sumner
when you came down, why did
you choose to live there by the
beach?
I’m a surfer, I love the sea and
I enjoy the drive to Sumner. It’s
a safe environment and it makes
me happy. I’m involved with the
great community and it reminds
me of the Mount. The kids enjoy
it too.
Speaking of family, how did
you meet your wife?
I met my wife, Jayne, at Lincoln.
I’ve said this before, but my
wife got a double degree – hers
and mine. I met her when I first
arrived in town and she’s been
through all the highs and lows
with me. I had 15 operations as
a player and she nursed me back

to the field. We’ve been through
a lot.
What does she do?
She works at the local school
and does extra-curricular sport
for the kids and runs sporting
competitions and that sort
of thing. She’s the sports coordinator.
Is she a bit of a rugby widow?
I was away over 100 days this
year with the NZ under-20s. But
we understand it and she makes
it work. We’ve got family support
at Sumner. I’m lucky to have my
role but we make sure we get
away as a family.
Sumner was hit quite hard in
the earthquakes, did you have
any issues with insurance or
damage to your home?
Yeah, we had a red zone section
up on the hill. We had five years
in court with the Government,
but we got a great result. We can
look back and the right thing was
done and we’ve moved on with
that. We’ve learned patience and
a lot about the law.
What was the most rewarding
moment of your rugby career
so far?
My first test for the All Blacks.
We played Australia in Christchurch
and my family came down.
I fulfilled a huge goal for myself.
Did you win that test?
Don’t ask! (In 1998 Australia beat
the All Blacks 27-23).
We had better move on then,
what was your most embarrassing
moment?
When I played for Canterbury
I was a reserve and came on, and
I unzipped my tracksuit and ran
on the field and I wasn’t wearing
my playing jersey, I still had my
warm-up T-shirt on. I was in the
huddle before I realised – everyone
was pointing at me as I ran on
and I kept running. I had to run
back and swap it at the next break.
Some coaches lose their fitness
after they finish playing, that
doesn’t seem the case for you?
I do a bit of stand-up paddle
boarding. It’s great for me and
for my strength in my core and
legs. I get to the gym and I swim
a lot. I have to do it most days
otherwise I get a bit edgy.
What do you like to do in
your spare time?
I spent a lot of time with the
kids, and going to their sport and
enjoying what they’re doing as a
family so I connect with them. In
the afternoon or the evenings we
are either playing tennis, passing
a ball, or playing touch. I’ve got
three boys, aged 12, 10 and eight.
They play rugby, touch, tennis
and they surf. They’ve got a really
good balance.
You’re well-qualified to give
them some tips.
I just try to be a dad not a
coach. I do coach one of their
teams, and I give them tips and
help out, but away from everyone’s
eyes so there’s no pressure
on them.

The now-defunct Akaroa-
Wairewa Community Board has
been asking the city council to
investigate if more plots could
be created in the township’s
cemeteries for several years.
The city council will release
39 full burial plots at the Anglican,
Catholic and Dissenters
cemeteries to
extend their
use for about
eight years.
“I’m very
happy we’ve
got this progress.
It happened
around
the earthquake and we felt here
it was being overlooked, so I’m
really pleased with the work
they’ve done,” Banks Peninsula
Community Board member
Janis Haley (above) said.
There are four cemeteries
in Akaroa, but the French
cemetery is closed and the Anglican,
Catholic and Dissenters
cemeteries are full except for
pre-purchased plots or second
interments.
The new plots would not be
available for pre-purchase.
FULL: All of Akaroa’s cemeteries are in need of more plots as they’re either at full capacity or all
remaining plots have been pre-purchased.
City council staff have been
telling residents to bury their
loved ones at Duvauchelle or
Le Bons cemeteries due to the
shortage.
Once the new plots are filled,
it’s likely people will be referred
to out-of-town cemeteries again.
“Eventually it is anticipated
that all Akaroa burials and
ash interments will need to be
redirected to the Duvauchelle
Cemetery,” city council neighbourhood
and sports parks
operations manager Al Hardy
said.
The city council is looking
at creating more burial plots
throughout Christchurch and
Banks Peninsula.
A majority of Banks Peninsula
cemeteries have enough space
capacity for several more decades
as only one or two burials
take place at those grounds each
year.
Those sites include Duvauchelle
Cemetery, Kaituna
Valley Cemetery, Le Bons Bay
Cemetery, Little River Cemetery,
Pigeon Bay Cemetery and
Wainui Cemetery.
The city council is responsible
for 26 cemeteries across Canterbury.
The Lyttelton Anglican
Cemetery and the Lyttelton
Catholic and Public Cemetery,
which have no, or very few,
full burial plots available for
purchase, will be investigated
for space.
The city council will also
look at increasing capacity at
the Diamond Harbour Memorial
Gardens Cemetery which
largely remains unused due to
drainage and layout issues.
Consultation
open for
cycleway projects
• By Annabelle Dick
PUBLIC CONSULTATION is
open for the Heathcote Expressway
and the Rapanui to Shag Rock
cycleway projects.
The Heathcote Expressway
goes from Heathcote through to
Woolston, Opawa, Waltham and
Sydenham into the central city.
It connects Heathcote, Ferrymead
and Woolston as well as
key destinations such as Ferrymead
Historic Park, The Tannery and Ara
Institute of Canterbury.
City council staff are holding
drop-in sessions for residents to
find out more about the project tomorrow
at Woolston Market Space
from 6–8pm, and next Wednesday
at St Mary’s Church Hall from
4–6pm. The city council is also
looking for feedback on the second
and third stages of the Rapanui to
Shag Rock Cycleway.
The cycleway will travel from
the central city to the Ferrymead
Bridge where it connects to the
Coastal Pathway.
The Coastal Pathway, which will
run from Ferrymead Bridge to
Sumner, is funded separately to the
Major Cycle Routes programme.
There are two alternatives for
this part of the Rapanui to Shag
Rock Cycleway but both follow
roughly the same route.

Ferrymead Rotarians in
hi-viz vests and Rotary caps

Several hundred people

alluring smell of the cooking

This was Ferrymead

• BY GARY MANCH,
NAVIGATIONAL SAFETY OFFICER,
LYTTELTON
I ALWAYS find it hard to believe
that Christmas comes around
so quickly each year and with
it comes our long summer days
and good weather.
In spite of the odd quirk of
nature, we really do live in a
beautiful country.
This was brought home to
me a few weeks ago when I was
using my quad bike to go from
the Amberley beach up the
river to the highway, travelling
through the big cliffs that are

Centre. Tom Keeley has been
providing Christmas trees
to the club for 21 years –
almost as long as the club
has been in existence. He
cuts them on the morning
of the sale to ensure they are
nice and fresh and will last
until at least Christmas Day.
The trees range in size and
shape so there’s one to suit
everyone. Ferrymead Rotary
thousands of years old, and there
was not a soul around, the birds
were singing, we had a picnic by
the river – I am sure you get the
picture.
Going to places like that gives
me plenty of time to think, and
that can be scary sometimes. As
you have seen before, some of my
articles can be a little random,
but hopefully there is always a
message there for you.
So when you are on the water,
whether it’s in a canoe or a large
power boat, if a sign or buoy
states it’s a five knot area, it
means just that; they are not

put there to annoy you, they are
there solely for safety reasons.
This applies to the rules
about not going faster than five
knots (around 8km/h or a fast
walking pace) when within 50m
of swimmers or other vessels,
or 200m from the shore or a
structure.
If a buoy or sign states that no
powered vessels are allowed, it
means just that, your jet ski or
powerboat cannot go there; these
areas are reserved for swimmers,
or non-powered craft so they
operate safely.

Democracy rules
Linwood-Central-
Heathcote Community
Board member Tim
Lindley talks about his
recent induction onto
the board
It’s now five weeks since I was
inducted into the Linwood-Central-
Heathcote Community Board as a
newbie community board member for
Heathcote. It’s been a very interesting
time and three strong impressions
stand out from the buzz and busyness
of simply getting started.
First, the quality of our democratic
systems here in New Zealand. The
manuals for newly elected officials
that describe how we must conduct
ourselves are long and detailed. It
is very clear that a requirement for
‘integrity’ is just as fully enshrined in
our institutions as is the requirement
for ‘democracy.’
New Zealand always lists among the
top countries for freedom from corruption.
If you ponder on it, without
integrity, democracy becomes pretty
meaningless. I can’t help but feel very
thankful for those who have gone before
and who have made our country
become what it is.
Second, the role expected of a
community board member here in
Pirate’s Corner
people competing to use our
recreational waterways, and it’s
clear that, without some form of
rules, it would be mayhem out
there.
The simple solution is know
Christchurch. It’s a part-time position
that comes with a strong expectation
that the board member will form a
connection between community and
council. We are to get out and know
and understand groups within our
communities and, at the same time,
get up to speed on how council works
and makes plans for the future. Put
simply, our role is to help people
understand council and council
understand people, so that the actions
council takes and the plans it makes
really are in the best interests of our
city.
Third, there is a lot to be done. I
have particular interests in our estuary
and waterways; in promoting safe
and effective cycleways; and in helping
make our city a good place to live
in. It is a privilege to have been elected
and I am looking forward to the work
ahead.
Tips to keep safe on the water this summer
the rules, don’t be a prat, and
be courteous to everyone out
there so that we all get through
the summer without incident
or injury. That’s it from me this
week, be safe out there.
Amazing Green-Fee Package
Play 2 Rounds on the Best Links Golf Course in Christchurch

Here’s how you can take advantage of this great offer…
Pick up your phone and dial 383 0307.Then press 2 and tell James or Moon in the Pro-shop that you are
calling about the Green-Fee Package in the paper and you want to book a tee time for 2 players. Tee times
for Saturday aren’t always available but for most other days you will be able to get the tee time you want.
Here’s what to do on the day you are playing…
Cut this ad out of the paper and hand it in at the Pro-shop at least 15 minutes before your tee time. In return
we will give you the key to a motorised cart and a voucher for 2 free handles of beer to be enjoyed after

Here’s what to do after the game…
Throw your clubs in the car and return the cart to the Pro-shop. Then claim your free beers at the bar. If you
don’t like beer - no worries. Just ask for a cup of coffee or a glass of wine instead. Then relax on the deck
after a great day’s golf.
That’s it, just pick up that phone and make the call…. 383 0307.

Electric vehicle
charging station
opens at
Little River
AN ELECTRIC vehicle charging
station has been installed at
Little River.
Electricity network company
Orion opened a free charging
station adjacent to the Little
River Cafe & Store and last
Wednesday.
Both fast charger and a standard
charger were installed at the
site.
A fast charger typically charges
an electric vehicle in around
20 to 30min, while a standard
charger will take a few hours to
fully charge a car.
Electric vehicles on the market
today have a range of 100km to
400km.
“We want to encourage that
future and facilitate our customer’s
ability to benefit from
EVs. To do that we need to give
people the confidence to buy EVs
by providing them with places to
charge their vehicles away from
their homes,” Orion chief executive,
Rob Jamieson said.
The station will be free to use
until the end of January and users
will have to pay about $10 to
use it from February onwards.
Orion is planning to roll-out
more chargers across Canterbury
in the next few months.
Cards well received
• By Annabelle Dick
ZOE ELMEY is only 11 but
already she is selling her
hand-crafted cards in England.
The Sumner School pupil and
budding artist is selling her own
range of cards under ‘Lots of
Love Art’ and has been selling
them to local businesses for the
past year.
But her biggest success so far
came during a recent holiday
to the United Kingdom when
Eastbourne store Barley Sugar
started selling the line.
Zoe and her mother Becky
Nisbet approached shopkeepers
and asked if they were interested
in her cards – they bought 32
cards to sell in their two shops.
“We’re all very excited,” Ms
Nisbet said.
“It confirms her talent the
more it spreads. She’s really going
to go somewhere.”
It’s not the only out-of-town
store interested in Zoe’s work,
the cards are sold at popular
holiday destination Waiheke
Island.
“Again the shops loved her
cards and Escapade in the tourist
area of Oneroa bought 18
cards, and a local art and craft
shop bought 35 to sell,” Ms
Nisbet said.
The Hub in Hanmer Springs
has also bought her cards – so
far she’s sold about 850 pieces.
She sells her cards for $5 but
they retail as high as $7.50 at
shops that stock them.
The young entrepreneur eventually
wants a career in the arts
and crafts business.
ESCAPADING: Zoe Elmey
sells her cards to businesses
while on holiday.
“I want to own my own shop
where I make everything by
hand. Drawing and creating
things has always been a part of
me,” Zoe said.
She’s designed a new range of
Christmas cards which are available
at Salt in Sumner.
“Zoe is always designing new
cards, so we hope to have a
new range in the new year,” Ms
Nisbet said.
•To order Zoe’s cards, email
lotsofloveart@gmail.com.
SITE: This reserve on
McCormacks Bay Rd will
have a kindergarten on it.
Kindergarten
appeal unlikely
•From page 1
An estimated 200 vehicles are
expected to move in and out of
McCormacks Bay Rd during the
day, and residents say it’s dangerous
place for a kindergarten.
“While the community centre
was being rebuilt there was
three accidents – one of them
had their door cleaned right off
its hinges,” Mrs Keats’ husband
Graham said.
“It’s really bad from a safety
aspect as kids are going to be
loaded and unloaded during the
peak times for traffic.”
Kidsfirst declined to comment
until the appeal time had lapsed.
Homeowner Suzanne Sullivan
is considering appealing
the decision but residents only
have until Friday, December 9 to
lodge an appeal.
“There’s a possibility we may
do because we’re certainly very
gutted about the decision. This
isn’t the place for a kindergarten,”
she said.

Lyrebird
by Cecelia Ahern
She will change your life forever In the south-west of Ireland,
rugged mountains meet bright blue lakes and thick forests.
Deep in the woods, a young woman lives alone, forever
secluded from the world, her life a well-kept secret. She
possesses an extraordinary talent, the likes of which no-one
has seen before: a gift that will earn her the nickname Lyrebird.
When Solomon stumbles into Laura’s solitary existence, her life
is turned on its head.
Pulled from her peaceful landscape to the cacophony of Dublin, she is
confronted by a world desperate to understand her. But while Solomon knows the
world will embrace Laura, will it free her to spread her wings – or will it trap her in a
gilded cage? Like all wild birds, she needs to fly free…
Lyrebird is a thoughtful, deeply moving love story; a story of the wild heart in us all
and the quiet that lies underneath the world’s noise.

THIS BOOK
Food, family and fresh beginnings. For fans of 800 Words, Offspring, Josephine
Moon and Monica McInerney.
On the outskirts of a small New Zealand seaside town, Lia and her friend Anna work
serious hours running their restored cafe. The busy season is just around the corner,
and there are other things to occupy them. Anna is about to marry Lia’s twin brother,
and Lia’s ex-boyfriend seems not to understand it’s over.
When a gorgeous stranger taps on Lia’s window near midnight and turns out not to
be a serial killer, she feels it’s a promising sign. But the past won’t let them be, and
Lia must decide whether events rule her life or she does.
The Pretty Delicious Cafe will remind you of those special, good things we love
about living. And the food is great.
A warm, witty novel, brimming with the trademark romance, friendship and
eccentricity that Danielle Hawkins’s fans adore.

Fair money goes
to good causes
OUR LADY Star of the Sea
held its annual Mission Day
Fair recently.
Held on the school
grounds, hundreds of residents
came down.
The pupils co-ordinated
the fair and sold secondhand
board games, books
and toys.
They also had a cake stall,
Diamond Harbour’s year
5 Korimako class had a
go at sailing. Here’s what
they had to say about
their experience
Last Monday, we went sailing
at Charteris Bay Yacht
Club. It was a beautiful day. As
we drove down, we could see
the water sparkling.
At the club, we met our
instructor Henry, and we
quickly got dressed into our
wet suits and life jackets.
Before we were allowed out
onto the water, Henry taught
barbecue, bouncy castle, fun
games and competitions.
The money raised was donated
to St Joseph’s School
in Samoa, although the
children decided to donate
half the money to St Joseph’s
School in Kaikoura so that
the pupils there could have
some fun.
The fair raised $969.
us about the parts of the optimist
boat. We learned to use
the rudder to turn and how to
use the mainsheet to control
the speed. We also learned
how to avoid the boom, which
makes exactly that sound if it
hits your head!
Once the optimists were
launched, we did follow the
leader. Elijah was set a challenge
because he was so fast.
He had to sail to the end of the
line and then come back.
After lunch, we went back
on the water to play a game
called sponge tag, which was
lots of fun. We also learned
SHIELD FEVER: Pupils at Our Lady Star of the Sea got to hold the

and gave parents and children an opportunity to get up close and
personal with the shield. (Left) Principal John Kane took time out to
pose with pupils Darcy and Macklan.

Rivalry in school surf champs
SUMNER SCHOOL’S Ava
Henderson will continue
her battle with North Wai
Boardriders teammate Lily
Robertson at Saturday’s South
Island Primary School Champs
at North Beach.
Henderson is the top seed
in the year 7 and 8 girls’
competition, but will face stiff
competition from Chisnallwood
Intermediate’s Lily Robertson.
Henderson won the recent
Canterbury Primary School
Championships, but Robertson
got one over the Sumner pupil at
the Duke Festival of Surfing in
March.
There’s also strong hopes for
another local competing in the
competition’s largest division.
Jack Tyro, of Sumner, will be
hoping to throw a cat amongst
the pigeons when he takes on
some of the best young surfers
from around the country in
the year 6 and under
competition.
The division includes current
New Zealand year 6 champion
Campbell Heasley from
Broomfield School.
The event, in its 13th year,
will be run by the North Wai
Boardriders Club.
This year the club expects
big numbers at the event, with
TOP SEED: Sumner School pupil Ava Henderson will be the

Champs.

the inclusion of a large team
of surfers from the Buller
Boardriders Club.
As well as Westport, there
will be competitors from North
Canterbury, Kaikoura and
Dunedin.
Due to the recent upheaval in
Kaikoura, North Wai has offered
free entry and accommodation
to competitors travelling from
that area.
SPORTS
NZ CHAMP: Campbell Heasley will be the man to beat in
the year 6 and under division. He will face plenty of top
competition, though, including Sumner’s Jack Tyro.
Bay area well represented in Metro win
• By Fraser Walker-Pearce
SUMNER AND Heathcote
players contributed to the
Christchurch Metro Cricket
senior representative team’s win
over South Canterbury on the
weekend.
The 50-over game, played at
Timaru’s Aorangi Park, came
down to a last wicket partnership
for Christchurch Metro, which
chased down South Canterbury’s
195 to win the match.
Sumner’s Dan Vann (right)
said the game was played on a
good pitch, and the team did
“quite well” to hold South Canterbury
from scoring more.
“We held them back to 195,
which is quite good I’d say. Then
we went out and batted well
and chased it down in the last
wicket,” he said.
Seven members of the 12-man
Christchurch Metro squad play
for either Heathcote or Sumner.
Heathcote was represented by
Grant Stewart, Matthew House,
Charles Grey and Nick Turner,
while Sumner had Jordan Leech,
Vann and Michael Newton Vesty.
Heathcote’s Turner had the best
bowling figures for Christchurch
Metro with 4/36, while Vann also
pitched in with 1/40.
In Christchurch Metro’s
run chase, Merivale-Papanui’s
Mitchell Dimond (55) and
captain James Carr (47)
combined with the bat to make
headway into South Canterbury’s
total.
But it came down to the
final wicket partnership for
Christchurch Metro to snatch the
victory. Heathcote’s Turner and
Stewart hit the winning runs in
the 47th over.
The representative side will
play two more games in the
new year. They will face Mid
Canterbury and Canterbury
Country.

THE MALTWORKS VILLAS
New villas
offer lifestyle
and financial
benefits
The Maltworks Villas residential
complex being constructed on the former
Maltworks site in Heathcote Valley is
designed for people in the over-55 age
group that enjoy an active lifestyle and
want to live in a place where natural beauty
defines their surroundings.
Located at 66 Port Hills Road, the
Maltworks Villas will not only have views
of the Port Hills, but will also have the
additional benefits of the micro-climate
environment of the valley.
Developed by PLC Group, the complex
will comprise 65 villas in duplex or terraced
housing styles.
There are 11 plans available in different
sizes, with two- or three-bedroom and
one- or two-bathroom units being offered.
The advantage of the larger sizes is that
purchasers will be able to bring more of
their existing belongings to their new
home, rather than having to dispose of
them.
Construction is linear, with doubleglazed
windows and Colorsteel roofing
with solar panels to reduce the cost of
power for residents. Villas will have a
single or double garage, depending on
the size, while the common areas of the
complex will be attractively landscaped and
maintained by a caretaker.
A key advantage for purchasers of
villas at the Maltworks development is
that ownership is a freehold unit title,
rather than a licence to occupy. This will
allow owners to benefit from the growth
in capital value of their unit, rather than
having limited access to participate in
increased value, as is the case with the
licence to occupy model.
PLC Groups has been operating for
15 years and has developed three over
55/60 lifestyle villages based on the
freehold unit title model. The Maltworks
Villas are designed to create a community
environment, where people of similar
interests can enjoy
companionship and
share activities, with
the well-appointed
clubhouse offering
facilities for socialising
and special events.
A store and café are
to be built alongside
the village, while
a wide range of
recreational facilities
in close proximity to
Maltworks Villas offer
plenty of opportunities
for enjoying social and
leisure activities.

Experts restore that
“winning smile”
MEETING PEOPLE for the first time,
interacting with others on social occasions,
going for a job interview - in all these
situations your smile is the most important
part of you.
Or perhaps, on a lighter note, you
might be scaring yourself with your ‘selfie’
because your smile is not as attractive as it
should be, due to missing or broken teeth.
Perhaps it’s time for a visit to Denture
South in Barrington, where the experts can
give you that winning smile back.
Clinical dental technician, Andrew
Johnson and associate Janice ling can
provide you with a highly personalised
experience. We have a lot of knowledge
and experience that can help guide you
through the process.
For people who have had dentures for a
while and are finding they frequently need
to buy denture adhesive to keep them in
place, Andrew advises having the dentures
relined so they will fit better. As he points
out, the money spent on denture adhesive
over 12 months would easily cover the cost
of having your dentures refitted.
Denture South has been providing a full
range of denture services for the residents
of Christchurch for over 13 years. These
services include first-time immediate
dentures, full replacement dentures, partial
plates and sports mouth-guards.
Many Denture South clients come
through word-of-mouth referral, an
indication of the level of satisfaction that’s
provided there. Coming into Christmas
we will be open and available for all
adjustments for our existing patients in the
final week, making for a great Christmas.
