battle for
changing
sheds
• By Noah Graham
CHANGING SHEDS at Scarborough
Park could be installed following
residents’ frustration the toilets were
congested with people getting changed.
The Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board requested money
for the changing sheds to be included
in the draft Annual Plan.
The city council has budgeted
$100,000 for the project, which could
be carried out later this year, if the
Annual Plan is approved following
public consultation.
Resident Peter Hansen said the lack
of changing rooms has been a big
problem.
He said a lot of children and teenagers
use the two toilets to change in
and out of their clothes at the beach.
It has caused congestion problems
for those who want to use the toilets.
Community board member Darrell
Latham said it was something nearby
residents’ and beach goers had been
“advocating for.”
“Mainly due to congestion from
surf clubs holding teaching sessions
along the waterfront and using the
toilet facilities as changing rooms.
“This has meant that folk passing
have not been able to access toilet
facilities in an easy manner,” Dr
Latham said.
City council head of community
support, governance and partnerships
Lester Wolfreys said creating more
public toilets “makes sense.”
“Currently people use the public
toilets to change after swimming and
surfing. This reduces the availability
of public toilets,” Mr Wolfreys said.

FROM
THE
EDITOR’S
DESK
SOME RELIEF is on its way for
those in need at Scarborough
Park.
We reveal today on page 1 that
$100,000 may be put aside by the
city council to build changing
rooms at the popular park – and
that will be money well spent.
At the moment people are
changing in the toilets and that’s
causing a few issues for those who
need them for what they were
built for.
Scarborough is hugely popular
so it’s a no-brainer to put changing
sheds in.
Top marks to Sumner Running
Club athletes who stood out at the
Canterbury children’s championships
in Timaru.
We have a great shot on page 1
of Caleb Sutter, and more coverage
on page 15.
Many thanks to the club for
sending in details and photos of
its efforts at the championships.

Penguins explore new nests
In Brief
• By Bridget Rutherford
Marie
Haley
A SUCCESSFUL predator
control programme on Banks
Peninsula has meant some of the
world’s smallest penguins have
started exploring new nesting
sites.
In November and December,
Banks Peninsula Conservation
Trust carried out its
great little penguin
count at the largest
mainland penguin
colony in the country
– Flea Bay.
It is carried out
every four years on
the white flippered penguins
and took about three weeks to
do, because they like to nest in
isolated, and difficult spots to
access.
Although the number of
pairs of penguins had declined
since the previous count, results
showed they have started to explore
old and unused nest sites.
Nests were found in burrows
at Otanerito, which had been
unused for about 15-20 years.
BPCT Wildside co-ordinator
Marie Haley said it was exciting
news for the colony’s future.
She said it showed the success
of the predator control programme
across an area known
as the Wildside, since numbers
blew out in the 1980s.
The Wildside is a nationally

their nesting spots on Banks Peninsula.
significant area for the protection
of sea bird breeding sites.
“It’s taken that long for the
programme to be good enough,
and long enough lasting for the
tide to really turn and it’s quite
exciting.”
Ms Haley said the penguins
had also been nesting at the
bottom of Hinewai Reserve, and
also around the coast where the
predator control programme
took place, from Akaroa head to
Le Bons Bay.
They had also moved to more
open places closer to humans
and activity, and seemed to be
coping well, she said.
A lot more were also being
spotted in Akaroa Harbour, she
said.
In 2012, 1304 penguin pairs
were counted. While the recent
count found 1250.
Ms Haley said the drop was
not concerning, because the Flea
Bay population had increased
most years, and now it seemed
to have reached its maximum.
The very first count was done
in 2000, with 717 pairs.
The trust was also seeing continued
increase in the number of
sooty shearwaters or titi, nesting
at Stony Bay.
In the last count in December,
there were up to 50 chicks. The
number had gone up every year.
TOURISTS UNHURT
A tourist couple have walked
away uninjured after their car
crashed into a bank on State
Highway 75, Little River, on
Sunday afternoon. Akaroa
police Senior Constable Tim
Johnson said the tourists were
travelling too fast in the wet
weather, lost control and as they
turned a corner, flipped and
crashed into the bank.
CONTAINER REMOVED
On Sunday morning a 7m
container was removed from a
vessel docked at the Lyttelton
Port when it was believed to
have contained
a hazardous
resin. Lyttelton
Volunteer Fire
Brigade chief
fire officer Mark
Buckley (right)
said there were
no issues in the
container’s removal and it was
all done in a “very safe manner.”
Lyttelton Port of Christchurch
manager Doug Parker
confirmed a sticky
resin was spilt when the
container was on-board the
ship. He said it is in a secured
area of the port awaiting cleanup.
“There was no spillage into
any waterways and no harm to
the environment,” he said.

Better communication – principal
• By Noah Graham
LYTTELTON Primary School’s
new principal is aiming for
better communication between
the school and community.
Brendan Wright has been at
the school since January but feels
like he is already at home.
Mr Wright’s appointment
followed former principal Diana
Feary’s resignation last year, after
a number of complaints from
parents about management,
communication, teacher morale
and the impact on children’s
education.
Mr Wright said being the new
principal will be challenging,
something he is looking forward
to.
His major goal will be to build
a better relationship between the
school and the community,
“You’ve got such a mixture
of people in the community. A
variety of people with different
jobs and roles,” he said.
The school was “close to
people’s hearts.”
Mr Wright said he is aiming
for the pupils to learn more
about the place they live in, the
environment and the eclectic
nature of Lyttelton.
“There is always challenge with
change and for each school the
challenge is different.”
Before his new role, Mr Wright
was the principal at Hanmer
Springs School for six years
where he saw the school role
increase from 75 pupils to 130.
He said he feels at home in
Lyttelton and the school because
it is a similarly “close-knit”
community like Hanmer Springs
and having a good relationship
between them both is a crucial
part of a school running well.
“There’s been a lot of changes
in education since I started. In
particular, technology is a huge
factor in why it has changed.”
Mr Wright said when he first
started teaching they had an old
computer in the corner of the
room, now the pupils are using
iPads.
His main goal is to ensure
the school is working with the
community and making use of
the place they are living in and
the extraordinary populace.
Mr Wright said pupils had to
be taught to be adaptable and
prepare them for change, rather
than directing pupils in one
direction.
“They are going to have to cope
with change and we have to help
them to continually think about
change.”
However, he said reading,
writing and mathematics are still
the important basics pupils need
to know to go forward.
“(There’s) changes in what
people see the purpose of a

Repairing damage to the Port Hills
• By Noah Graham
IT WILL take years and
potentially millions of dollars
to rejuvenate the Ohinetahi
Reserve.
More than 83ha of native
plants were lost when the Port
Hills fire raged through the
reserve last month along with
1.3km worth of fencing. Now the
Summit Road Society is looking
for funding to help restore the
reserve.
The society has set up a Givealittle
page, which has raised more
than $5300, to help ease the pressure
of the potential cost, society
president Bill Woods said.
Mr Woods said it would cost
more than $16,500 to repair the
fencing, and hiring a contractor
to re-plant the reserve would cost
more than $8 million, money the
society does not have.
“It’s a staggering amount of
money.”
However, Mr Woods said they
were going to have to be creative
with trying to restore the land by
aerial spraying flax seeds, which
the society has collected, over
the reserve, followed by handplanting
eco-sourced plants
around the perimeter.
It is expected the cost of aerial
spraying followed by hand planting
will cost $50,000, he said.
He said, if the society had the

perimeter line planted, they
hoped maybe nature would
take over and spread native
seeds into the reserve area to
help rejuvenate the scorched
land.
He said it was also important
for the fence to be repaired
as soon as possible to stop
neighbouring animal stock from
wandering onto the land and
eating the young trees when they
are planted.
Mr Woods said they want to
get a recovery programme under
way quickly before the risk of
erosion and sediment could
affect nearby creeks and the
harbour basin if there is heavy
rainfall.
It was also important to try
and get as much of it done before
winter sets in and before grass
and weeds take hold, making it
difficult for indigenous species to
establish themselves more easily,
he said.
“We’re already losing that race
– there are weeds growing in the
reserve already.”
Mr Woods said it will be a 50-
year project to get the reserve to
how it was before the fire.
The Summit Road Society
was the hardest hit landowner
from the fire, with a huge loss in
native biodiversity in Ohinetahi
Reserve.
Volunteers help replanting
• By Noah Graham
MORE THAN one million flax
seeds have been collected so far
to help rejuvenate the Ohinetahi
Reserve.
Two flax pod de-seeding
meetings have taken place in
the Governors Bay Community
Centre over the past two weeks
to collect flax seeds which will
be spread over the Ohinetahi
Reserve.
Summit Road Society member
and organiser of the deseeding
meetings, Tony Edney,
said more than 20 volunteers
were at each meeting.
“I’ve calculated it to more
than 30,000 seeds collected
per person. They’ve done really
well.”
Mr Edney said it was important
for the society to collect the
seeds as the flax plants could be
the reserve’s lifeline if sprayed
over the area.
He said the plants grow
quickly and don’t burn easily,
but they would need a lot of
seeds because of the low development
rate.
Mr Edney said the flax pods
were collected from neighbouring
areas.
The group needed to start

work on the reserve as soon as
possible before weeds took over
the land.
“Right now gorse seeds are
starting to germinate. They’ve
had a good head start. We
don’t want to be a year out,” Mr
Edney said.
He said there would be
more de-seeding meetings this
month.

tomorrow

AN ORGANISER of an
online survey about crime in
Lyttelton hopes tomorrow’s
police-prompted community
meeting will not just be a show of
statistics.
A public meeting between
police and the community will
be held at the Lyttelton Primary
School hall at 6pm. It comes after
months of concern from residents
about policing in Lyttelton.
Paul Dietsche, who helped
organise an online survey which
highlighted the community’s dissatisfaction,
is worried the police
will show statistics that say there
has not been an increase in crime.
But he is hopeful the police
will suggest plans on how the
community and police can work
together.
Canterbury area prevention

Reeves, Senior Sergeant Stephen
McDaniel and Sergeant Dave

to help answer the community’s

AKAROA RESIDENTS are
hosting a car show to help
fundraise for the health hub.
The inaugural La Grande Auto
Show Akaroa will be held on Saturday
from 10.30am until 3.30pm,
at the Akaroa Recreation Ground
in a bid to help raise money
for the Akaroa Health Hub: Te

A group decided a car show
would be a good way to help raise
money for the hospital. Archibalds
are sponsoring the event.
The auto show will bring together
many of Canterbury’s top
vehicles and will allow you full
access to view the cars and meet
their owners.
There will be feature race cars
and those from different periods
throughout history.
All funds go directly to the
Akaroa Health Hub’s rebuild.
The Akaroa Hospital was badly
damaged in the September 4,
2010, earthquake and could no

community has been working
with the Canterbury District

$30,000 lifeline for cottage
• By Noah Graham
FERRYMEAD’S COB Cottage
has been given a $30,000 lifeline
to stop it deteriorating.
The money has been fast
tracked after Linwood-Central-
Heathcote Ward councillors Sara
Templeton and
Yani Johanson
(left) argued
it was needed
urgently.
A total of
$300,000 which
was earmarked
for the repair had been deferred
out to 2020/21 in the proposed
draft Annual Plan.
However, Cr Templeton and
Cr Johanson asked for the repair
of the cottage to be brought
forward to 2019.
Cr Templeton said the
extra $30,000 will ensure the
building is secured and help
stop deterioration until 2019
while also contributing to public
consultation and consent
costs.
The historic cottage was significantly
damaged in the 2011
earthquakes and repairs were
put on hold until Ferrymead
Bridge could be fixed.
She said the cottage has been

Pathway so close, more people
will be able to see how early
pioneers lived in the Ferrymead
area.
The work done to the cottage
will need to be consulted on but
there is no time frame for that
yet, she said.
Christchurch Heritage Trust
chairwoman Dr Anna Crighton
said she was delighted to hear
the plans were brought forward
and the cottage is going to be
repaired.
“I’m very pleased they’re going
to repair it . . . we need reminders
from before the earthquake,
particularly Cob Cottage.”
The cottage was built by James
Penfold in the early 1860s.
Mr Penfold was an employee
for the Ferrymead-Christchurch
railway line and helped in the
construction of Lyttelton Tunnel.
The building has a shingled
roof, wooden casement windows
and a plank door. The house was
rebuilt in the 1940s.

Reunion celebrates
Danish settler history
ABOUT 70 descendants of
19th-century Danish settler Peter
Sorensen visited sites around
Banks Peninsula recently for a
family reunion.
Descendants met first at
the Greenpark Memorial
Community Centre before
spending the weekend visiting
various Banks Peninsula
locations associated with the
family history.
The reunion culminated with
a get-together at the Akaroa Recreation
Ground.
Mr Sorensen, a carpenter,
and his wife Rasmine made the
journey from Yding, Denmark, to
Lyttelton onboard the Cardigan
Castle in 1873.
Conditions in Denmark were
not good at the time and the
New Zealand Government was
initially recruiting immigrants.
The Sorensens’ children Karen
and Nielsine also made the voyage.
A third child had died of
cholera in London after arriving
there from Denmark and three
other children, Mary, Frederick
and Bodiline were born in New
Zealand.
The family settled, first at
Robinsons Bay, and then in the
GET TOGETHER: About 70 people attended the Sorensen
family reunion.
Little River area, and lived there
for many years.
Family members worked at the
Robinsons Bay, Springvale and
Tarawera mills.
The children married into
families in the Banks Peninsula
area and Christchurch, before
dispersing out to various farms
throughout Canterbury and
beyond.
Bodiline Sorensen worked as
a housekeeper for the Rhodes
brothers at Flea Bay before marrying
Greek-born Akaroa launch
operator Demetrius Koinomopolus.
They were better known locally
as Mr and Mrs Dominique.
Mrs Dominique, who lived to
94, was well regarded in Akaroa
for growing fruit trees and selling
the fruit and preserves. The
Dominique’s house at 20 Percy
St still has some of those original
apple and pear trees. She was also
known for her fine embroidery
and her marriage certificate,
which she worked in cross-stitch,
was on show at the Akaroa Museum
over the reunion weekend.
Many of the descendants at the
reunion came from Canterbury,
Otago and Southland. Some also
came from the North Island and
Australia, as well as as far afield
as Wisconsin and Vietnam.
Only one descendant of Mr
Sorensen lives on the peninsula
today, a great, great granddaughter
who lives in Takamatua.
SEND-OFF: More than 360 people farewelled godwits on
Friday evening. The birds have started an 11,000km migration
journey to Alaska. About 800 birds left last week with 750
expected to leave this week. “It was just fabulous to see so
many people taking an interest in these unique migrating
birds, it shows that people truly value wildlife in and on the
estuary,” Avon-Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust co-ordinator
Tanya Jenkins said.
ECLECTIC: The Hell Fire Club owner Roz Dixon celebrating
her new bar in the British Hotel in Lyttelton. The club had
a soft opening two weeks ago and the response from the
community has been “really good,” she said. Mrs Dixon hopes
the club will be a creative space for locals to go and perform
in a welcoming environment. PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER

Enhancing biodiversity
Linwood-
Central-
Heathcote
Community
Board member
Tim Lindley talks
about the community’s
effort in re-vegetating the
Avon/Heathcote Estuary
and urges people to also
help with the next planned
planting along the Coastal
Pathway
Community effort really does
make a difference. Sometimes
the progress made is so steady
it can be hard to remember how
things were before, but changes
for the better definitely are happening.
A good local example (and
there are many others) is the
partnership between various
community groups and city
council to re-vegetate the south
east Avon/Heathcote Estuary
edge and nearby gullies with
native plants.
Many projects are involved,
including the Charlesworth Reserve,
McCormacks Bay, Drayton
Reserve, Coastal Pathway,
Sumner Dunes and Mahoe-Nui
Bush – and possibly some I don’t
know about yet.
These are important for many
reasons, one being the compelling
evidence that being able to
regularly take time out in nature
is good for mental well-being.
It also represents good stewardship.
In Charlesworth Reserve,
rare black backed gulls have
begun breeding and the godwits
(now heading away for winter)
have found an extension to their
feeding grounds.
For keen walkers, Drayton
Reserve, tucked in between Mt
Pleasant and Balmoral spurs, is
well worth a visit. There are five
entry points. The easiest to find
are from the far end of Basil Pl,
the first bend up Glenstrae Rd
and the end of Avery Pl.
The bush is growing well here
and with a trapping programme
under way, it could even become
noisy with birdlife.
The next planting planned for
the Coastal Pathway is a special
one – the landscaped area opposite
Redcliffs Park.

QUESTION: What’s the rule
for meeting another boat that’s
travelling head-on towards you?
If you cannot answer this basic
question then, sadly, you’re not
alone. I will give you the answer
to this at the end of my column.
As I’m constantly visiting
boating areas across Canterbury
as Environment Canterbury
navigation safety officer, I often
speak with keen boaties about
the rules. This helps me to figure
out what people do and don’t
know about the Navigation
Safety Bylaw 2016 rules.
As a result of these informal
conversations, I’m very
concerned about the lack of
knowledge among our boating
community about the new bylaw
rules.
At one of the Harbourmaster’s
Office boating safety days.
I chatted to boaties about the
The land form and planting
plan has been carefully designed
by Wraight and Associates so
that people using the pathway
will not frighten birds away from
the estuary edge.
The planting is scheduled
for mid-May. This project
urgently needs community
help. The project leader is
leaving Christchurch in April
and the pathway group is
urgently seeking someone to
take over. To offer help or to
find out more, email info@

nz
new rules and jotted down (in an
informal survey) what people did
and didn’t know. On one particular
occasion I spoke with 133
people and asked 11 of the same
basic questions about the rules.
What surprised me the most
was that about 75 per cent of
Community to engage

importance of
open dialogue
between the
community
and police and how crucial
tomorrow’s police meeting
will be
Lyttelton is known for many
things – stunning natural beauty,
a rich history, a key position as
host to Canterbury’s port, and a
close-knit community spirit.
It is when communities are
challenged that we really see that
community spirit come to the
fore. The big challenge that Lyttelton
is facing now is the spate of
crime – particularly burglary –
which residents have been telling
me about for several months.
We all want to feel safe in our
homes and it’s awful to know
that there are people in our
community who are threatening
the security of our homes and
vehicles – whether these are fellow
members of the community
or opportunists who have come
in from somewhere else.
I am very pleased that the
police response to these issues
being raised has been to engage

with the community directly.
The community meeting, taking
place at Lyttelton Primary School
at 6pm tomorrow, will be an opportunity
for dialogue between
police and the community.
It will be valuable for the community
to hear first-hand what
the crime statistics are in Lyttelton,
and find out more about
the work police are doing. But it
will also be a chance for members
of the community to have their
say, and let police know what they
have experienced and how they
feel they could be better served.
Looking into the future, I do
think Lyttelton should expect to
benefit from the National Government’s
recent announcement
of a Safer Communities package,
including 880 new sworn police
officers. The extra police staff
will be distributed where New
Zealand Police believe the greatest
need is. I think Lyttelton is
a prime candidate, and I will be
communicating that to our police
leadership in Canterbury.
When it comes to deciding on
the distribution of these extra
resources, it can only be a positive
thing for Lyttelton that we are
now opening a dialogue between
the community and the police
who serve them.
A lesson for boaties on how to stay safe on the water
Pirate’s Corner
the boaties I spoke with had not
actually read the bylaw. If this is
representative of our boaties, it’s
a bit scary. The bylaw rules define
what you can and cannot do
in waterways in the Canterbury
region.
What is the speed limit of
vessels within 200m of the shore
or structure, or within 50m of a
swimmer or another vessel? This
is another question that caught a
lot of people out. While the rule
is five knots, a lot of people said
either eight or 10 knots.
When I discussed the wearing
of life jackets with people, the
majority said they wore life jackets
when on the water without
fail. However, many admitted
they hadn’t checked their life
jackets to ensure they were safe.
Life jackets must be checked
regularly for wear, that they inflate
correctly and are safe. If you
do not know how to have your
life jacket checked, email me at
gary.manch@ecan.govt.nz and I
will send you the information.
Before I sign off, here’s the
answer to the question I asked at
the start of my column: When
two boats are approaching headon
to each other they must pass
port to port (left side to left side)
both must alter their course to
starboard (turn to the right) to
avoid colliding head on. To read

Sick bed to City2Surf
TURNAROUND: Leanne Crawford has put poor
health behind her and is looking forward to the
City2Surf.
PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN
• By Gabrielle Stuart
JUST A year ago, Leanne Crawford could
barely walk, had lost 30kg, was constantly
sick, and had to put both her work and her
wedding on hold – and she had no idea what
was going wrong.
On Sunday she will take on the 14km The
Star City2Surf with Mike Pero Real Estate
event, which she will walk, and she won’t
be doing it alone.
Her partner, friends and many of the
nurses who helped her get on her feet
again plan to do the walk beside her –
41 people in total – raising money to
help others with the same condition
get treatment.
The 30-year-old began feeling sick
in 2014, but initially doctors did not
know what was wrong.
It took almost two years for her to
be diagnosed and find a treatment,
because she was facing a complex
mix of parasites in her intestines,
crohn’s disease and endometriosis.
For much of that time she couldn’t
work, and she had to postpone her
wedding three times.
“It was like my life was turned
upside down. It was really, really
frightening just not knowing what
was going on,” she said.
After a Christchurch gastroenterology
specialist, Steven Ding, diagnosed
her problems, she has made a
gradual recovery.
But she said it was only possible because
of the help she received, and the diagnosis
tools provided by the Canterbury Bowel and
Liver Trust.
“The things that finally got me well cost a
lot of money, so I wanted to give something
back,” she said.
She has already raised almost $1500
through people sponsoring her run.
She said she had never done anything like
the City2Surf before, and after being sick
for so long being able to cross the finish line
would feel like a giant victory.
“I’m sure there will be tears,” she said.
“I finally feel like I’ve got my life back. I
can’t go for drinks or dinner like normal,
but I am still able to work, which is amazing.”
She works for Bupa as an activity organiser,
and said they held her job for her, in
spite of the fact she was off work for three
months.
She has also rescheduled her wedding, and
plans to marry her partner of eight years,
Craig Corboy, this December.
“I’m determined I’m going to get down the
aisle this time,” she said.

Learn more about wetlands
with interactive questions
• By Noah Graham
THE AVON-Heathcote Estuary
Ihutai Trust is using a new way
to get people wandering around
the Charlesworth Wetland
Reserve track.
The trust is trialling a questionnaire
about the reserve’s
local flora for the community to
answer as they stroll around the
Wetland Edge Walk.
Trust co-ordinator Tanya
Jenkins said people will have to
locate signs around the reserve
which correlate to 20 questions
inside a pamphlet about a particular
plant within the reserve.
She said it appealed to people
both young and old.
“It is absolutely fun . . . Who
doesn’t want to be a detective?”
Mrs Jenkins said it was a great
way for the community to enjoy
a 30-minute walk, while also
learning something new about
the place they live in.
She said there are a range of
questions which help people
understand how certain plants
are cared for or why they look
the way they do.
The questionnaire is the first
of its sort in Christchurch tracks,
she said.
Mrs Jenkins said walking
tracks in the North Island had
started using an interactive element
to their walks which had
worked “really well,” so it was
about time Canterbury gave it
a go.
She said a family had trialled
the questionnaire and loved it.
“The parents enjoyed the trail

day and divided the school into
three countries, where pupils
had to wear outfits representing

The pupils were asked to

included a variety of team sports

Kane said.
He said it was a wonderful

athletes broke records and won
several medals at the Canterbury
children’s championships in
Timaru.
Junior club captain Ann Wells
said it was a fantastic event at
Aorangi Stadium with excellent
conditions.
She said the athletes beat a lot
of the club’s records while also
nabbing a few top spots.
The club did exceptionally well
this year because it had a smaller
contingency of athletes and
produced a number of top-three
performances within the various
age groups, she said.
“It was fantastic, they all did so
well.”
She said the top performers
were Luca Tracey, Caleb Sutter
and Tim Ward.
The grade 14 boys’ relay team,
made up of Tim, Caleb, Luca
and John Wells, narrowly missed
out on a top three placing and
breaking the club record, she
said.

Lyttelton locals will now benefit from
regular hearing and audiology clinics being
held at Lyttelton Health Centre on Oxford
Street. Sincock & Till Audiology are the
Christchurch hearing specialists and saw
the need for a clinic in the port town. “We
have customers travel to us from Lyttelton
and with no full-time hearing clinic for
the area, it made perfect sense to make a
regular and ongoing commitment to the
area,” says Carolyn Till.
Full audiology services will be on offer
including hearing aid sales, adjustments to
existing hearing aids, diagnostic hearing
tests and wax removal. Sincock & Till
specialise in ACC for hearing loss resulting
from noise exposure. ACC offer generous
subsides for hearing aids when the loss is
caused by damage resulting from noisy
employment or recreational activities,
something that is common given the
industry of Lyttelton. “We have a good
relationship with ACC and significant
experience with helping customers through
the ACC process,” says Carolyn. “We are
fortunate in New Zealand to have access to
this funding but the key is to get a diagnosis
of a noise related loss prior to age related
hearing loss being more predominant.”
Locals who visit the Lyttelton clinic will
always have access to the Christchurch city
clinic on Barbadoes Street.
“Hearing is valuable and our message is
that “a conversation costs nothing,” says
Carolyn. “Make an appointment, talk to us
about your hearing and we will do what we
do!” “We are highly experienced and offer
a more personal approach to audiology
and hearing healthcare. We pride ourselves
on being locally owned, affordable and
independent of the large internationally
owned companies and we aim to deliver a
better level of service. What is important
to customers with hearing aids is seeing
the same person every time and trusting
that person to genuinely care about their
hearing. Hearing aids only take you so far,
choosing the right audiologist is as, if not
more important. We often have people
switch to us for that reason. We don’t need
to be the ones who fitted your hearing aids
to be the people that care for your hearing
in years to come.”
Anyone can visit the new hearing clinic,
even if you already have hearing aids
and want a more local and convenient
provider. Contact Sincock and Till

Properties such as these very rarely come
to the market. This is a magical setting in
one of the most desirable locations within
Governors Bay.
Nestled on 10 hectares (approx.) of mixed
contour land between the hills and the sea,
this impressive 320m2 home boasts endless
enviable features. The house itself consists
of 4 dble bedrooms (main with en-suite)
expansive open plan kitchen and dining,
and large separate lounge with feature gas
fireplace. With living and sleeping over two
separate wings there is plenty of space for
the whole family. Endless private decking
with spa pool and flat, sheltered lawn areas
give plenty of options to lose yourself in the
tranquil environment and stunning views.
The original garage has been turned into
a 2 dble bedroom, fully self-contained
flat, and there is also a large original barn
behind the house. Both are un-consented.
Governors Bay is a very desirable and
popular Banks Peninsula suburb just 15
minutes’ drive from Christchurch city.
With a local primary school, café and pub
there is an excellent community feel here.
Llama Lookout is an extremely unique,
iconic and quirky property, with countless
options for the astute buyer to explore.
There is plenty of scope here to develop
gardens and put your own mark on the
house, or simply move in and enjoy the
peaceful, laid back lifestyle so close to the
city; yet a world away.
