Return of Timeball tower 

• By Caitlin Miles 

WORK TO rebuild the tower 

section of the historic Lyttelton 

Timeball Station is expected to 

start in July. 

Following the June 13, 2011, 

earthquake, Lyttelton Timeball 

Station was dismantled due to 

the damage. 

Work on rebuilding the tower 

and flagpole was meant to start 

in June last year. 

However, it was put on hold 

due to other work near the site. 

Heritage New Zealand decided 

to put the work on hold 

so significant earthquake 

repair road works on 

Sumner Rd and Reserve 

Tce could be carried out by 

the Stronger Christchurch 

Ken 

Maynard 

Infrastructure Rebuild 

Team. 

With the road works 

going on, it made it difficult 

for workers to access the Timeball 

site to carry out repair work. 

Now that the road works have 

been completed, work on 

the project can start. 

At the time, residents 

were worried about how 

long the project would 

be put on hold. Lyttelton 

Community Association 

chairman Ken Maynard 

said it was great news to 

have the rebuild going 

ahead. •Turn to page 4

FROM 

THE 

REPORTER’S 

DESK 

As the new reporter to Bay 

Harbour News it’s been a busy 

introduction to the role, touching 

base with local community 

groups and getting my head 

around issues important to the 

area. 

My first job was attending 

the Lyttelton police meeting 

last week and it was a good 

way to meet members of the 

community. The concerns people 

had over policing appears to have 

been some what quelled due to 

the meeting (page 3). 

Having a health hub is 

important to any community but 

especially Akaroa. The district 

needs to fundraise $2.5 million 

to replace the hospital they 

lost in the February 22, 2011, 

earthquake. At the weekend a 

classic car show raised thousands 

for the health hub. 

If you would like to get in 

touch, phone me on 021 915 924.

Police reassure residents 


A MEETING between Lyttelton 

police and residents has 

defused tensions after locals 

felt authorities weren’t in the 

community enough. 

After months of concerns 

from residents over the lack of 

policing in the community a 

meeting was held to clarify the 

crime rate in the community 

and answer questions from residents. 

Canterbury 

metro commander 

Superintendent 

Lane Todd, Canterbury 

area prevention 

manager 

Peter 

Newsome 

Acting Inspector 

Paul Reeves, 

Senior Sergeant 

Stephen McDaniel 

POLICING: The meeting between police and residents covered concerns and provided 

information as to how police operate in the area. 

and Sergeant Dave Knowles ran 

the meeting on Thursday at the 

Lyttelton Primary School hall. 

About 25 people attended, 

including members of the Banks 

Peninsula Community Board, 

community patrol team and 

local MPs. 

Superintendent Todd started the 

meeting by saying the station located 

in the town would not close. 

However, he also said the station 

would not be manned 24/7 

as there was not enough resources, 

especially since the crime rate 

has reduced in the area. 

Acting Inspector Reeves 

said from 2015 to 2016 crime 

in the area had dropped 8 per 

cent, with 122 crimes reported 

last year, down from the 133 

reported the year before. 

One woman said she was concerned 

no one was at the police 

station and wanted to know 

what the police did when they 

weren’t in the station. 

Sergeant Knowles said the 

six officers have a large area 

to cover, including Diamond 

Harbour, and they are often 

mobile. However, if something is 

reported someone will be there 

to follow it. 

“We are probably out and 

about more than five years ago 

because of the mobility. 

“If we aren’t working or on 

shift someone from town will be 

there,” Sergeant Knowles said. 

Several residents said when 

they called the station no one 

was there and they could not 

report anything. 

Superintendent Todd said if 

they need to call police because 

they are concerned for their 

safety they should phone 111. 

“Don’t think there’s just six 

people in Lyttelton, there is a 

team in Christchurch and they 

are not far away, they could be 

doing a patrol near by, get a call 

and be here,” he said. 

The police also encouraged 

people to join the City to Sumner 

Community Patrol, and 

offer help around their own 

community. 

Former police officer and 

resident Peter Newsome said he 

would still like to see police in 

the area 24/7 but was happy the 

officers had reassured the community. 

“People know more about 

what is going on in the area,” Mr 

Newsome said. 

In Brief 

LIBRARY HOURS 

The Redcliffs Village Library 

will have longer operating 

hours from April 6. It will 

be open for a late night on 

Thursday and longer on 

Saturday. On Monday- 

Wednesday and Friday the 

library will operate from 10am 

to 4pm, On Thursday it will be 

open from 10am to 7pm and on 

Saturday it will be open from 

10am to 12.30pm. Additional 

staff has been recruited to keep 

the library open for longer and 

meet community needs. 

CLARIFICATION 

Last week’s page one Bay 

Harbour News article 

which said city council had 

budgeted $100,000 for the 

Scarborough Park changing 

sheds in its Annual Plan was 

incorrect. We got it wrong. The 

Linwood-Central-Heathcote 

Community Board asked 

city council to include the 

money in its draft Annual 

Plan to build changing sheds 

on Sumner beach to prevent 

people using the Sumner 

beach toilets at Marriner St 

as changing rooms. These 

were the toilets resident Peter 

Hansen was referring to, 

not the Scarborough Park 

changing sheds.

Timeball 

repair set for 

July start 

•From page 1 

“The Timeball is to Lyttelton 

what the Cathedral is to 

Christchurch,” Mr Maynard said. 

Heritage Destinations General 

Manager Nick Chin said a project 

manager for the rebuild has 

been assigned and a stonemason 

selected. 

“The tower will be built first 

to accommodate the Timeball 

mechanism,” Mr Chin said. 

“The stone masonry work 

will take place in the spring and 

summer months when the weather 

is at its best to ensure proper 

curing.” 

The project’s budget remains 

within the approximately 

$3 million raised through 

fundraising. 

The plan is to restore the tower 

mechanism and flagpole. 

When the Timeball Station was 

dismantled, Heritage New Zealand 

put as much heritage material it 

could into storage so it could be 

later returned to the site. 

Mr Maynard said it was 

important to the community to 

have the tower rebuilt. 

“It’s one of the things we have 

always wanted to get rebuilt . . . we 

look forward to it starting,” 

he said.

MULTI-PURPOSE: The concept design for the new 12-bed Akaroa Health Hub has been approved by the Akaroa Structure Group 

and CDHB. 

Funds for health hub streaming in 


SO FAR $800,000 has been 

raised for the Akaroa Health 

Hub, and getting the remaining 

$1.7 million is an “achievable” 

goal. 

Health hub structure group 

chairman Alan Bradford said it 

was “incredible” to see so many 

people donate money to the 

service. 

The community has been 

without a hospital since it 

was demolished following the 

September 2010 earthquake. 

They need to raise $2.5 

million for the planned hospital, 

HOURS: 

Mon - Fri 9.30am - 5pm 

Sat 10am - 3pm 

after Ngai Tahu pulled out of 

the agreement to provide some 

funding last year. 

Residents have been 

instrumental in the fundraising, 

a group of residents decided to 

host a car show to help collect 

money for the health hub. It 

raised $11,000 at the weekend 

from the show. 

Roughly 1600 attended the 

inaugural La Grande Auto 

Show Akaroa held at the 

recreation ground. It featured 

a broad range of cars from 

1907 to 2016, Archibalds 

Christchurch sponsored the 

event and featured 10 cars in 

the show. 

Mr Bradford said: “It’s just 

incredible how people have been 

stepping up and helping,” 

One elderly gentleman 

donated $10,000. 

“He has lived in the area 

his whole life and he wants to 

see it happen,” Mr Bradford 

said. 

The Guardians of Akaroa 

Hospital also donated a large 

sum of money to help with the 

efforts. 

The health hub is planned to 

be built on the original site on 

Onuku Rd and includes 12 beds.

“That’s pretty amazing,” 

Mr Bradford said given the 

reaction and support from the 

community he thought raising 

$2.5 million was achievable. 

“When we first started it 

seemed like a huge target but 

with how people have got 

behind it and supported it I 

think we’ll get there all right,” 

Mr Bradford said.

Museum eyes up London St site 


THE LYTTELTON Historical 

Museum Society could soon 

have a new home on London 

St if the city council approves 

gifting the land to the 

group. 

The Banks Peninsula 

Community Board has 

recommended the city council 

gift the land at 33-35 London St 

to the museum. 

The society is trying to 

acquire the former Lyttelton 

Service Centre site after the 

museum was badly damaged 

in the February 22, 2011, 

earthquake, and had to be 

demolished. 

During the last three years, 

more than 8500 items have been 

catalogued and photographed 

and are slowly being made 

available to view online via the 

museum’s website. 

The museum collection was 

rescued and is currently stored 

at the Air Force Museum of 

New Zealand. 

Since the building was 

demolished, the society has 

been looking at various sites 

around Lyttelton to re-establish 

itself. 

In 2016, it decided the site on 

London St would be the best fit. 

A report to the city council 

said the new museum would 

play an important role in 

education, leisure and tourism. 

The society estimates 10,000 

visitors a year. 

The Lyttelton Master Plan 

refers to the importance of 

having the museum back in the 

community not only to display 

the heritage in the area, but as 

a place for people to “connect” 

with the stories and people of 

the area. 

“The Lyttelton Historical 

Museum is integral to local 

landscape and heritage,” the 

plan says. 

SAVING 

HISTORY: 

The Fire 

Service 

rescued 

Lyttelton 

Museum’s 

historic items 

after the 

February 

22, 2011, 

earthquake. 

The society believes it can 

raise $5.9m for a new building 

through various grants and 

funding. 

If the city council accepts the 

recommendation, the society 

hope to have the museum open 

by 2019. 

Bid to attract 

caravan 

business 

to Scott Park 


THE CITY council is looking for 

a small cafe caravan to set up on 

Scott Park in Ferrymead. 

City council staff are currently 

working through a master plan for 

the area and want to see if a small 

business would do well at the 2 

Main Rd site. 

A temporary lease of 12 months 

is being offered to a small business 

which could operate out of 

a caravan, with the possibility of 

combining it with a water sports 

hire business. 

City council head of facilities, 

property and planning, Bruce Rendall, 

said it would be a good spot 

for a business looking to serve food 

and offer water sport hire. 

“Scott Park services both aquatic 

recreation uses and the adjacent 

coastal path, so this opportunity 

would suit both food and water 

sport vendors,” Mr Rendall said. 

The business is likely to operate 

between the hours of 6am and 7pm 

seven days a week at a cost of $25 a 

day, plus GST. 

Interested businesses have until 

March 30 to make proposals to the 

city council.

Big turnout for fun run 

IT WAS perfect weather for the 

annual City2Surf on Sunday, 

with thousands of runners and 

walkers taking part in the event. 

The 14km event started at 

9am on Sunday from Pioneer 

Stadium’s Centennial Park. An 

hour later, the Sport Canterbury 

6km started from Hansen Park, 

Opawa. Both events finished at 

the Ferrymead playing fields. 

Star Media events organiser 

Vanessa Fleming said entries are 

up on last year. 

The 150 team entries ranged in 

size from 1000-strong “Hewaka 

Tapu” to the five-member “We 

Thought They Said Rum.” 

At the finish line there were 

various healthy food options 

from salad to pizza, along with 

freebies, a fun zone for children, 

prizes, entertainment and much 

more. 

•Gilbert Wealleans was there 

to capture the action throughout 

the day. 

READY: Star Media events 

organiser Vanessa Fleming 

and event sponsor Mike Pero 

of Mike Pero Real Estate 

before the event. 

CHALLENGE: Rugby legend 

Richie McCaw took up the 

challenge. 

THEY’RE OFF: It was hectic at the start line as runners headed 

towards Ferrymead. 

SUCCESS: Matt Dryden (left, 

2nd), Ieuan van der Peet (1st, 

centre), and Jason Matulick 

were the first three to cross 

the finish line after 14km. 

TEAM: More than 1000 people joined the Hewaka Tapu team, 

their pink shirts made them easy to spot throughout the day. 

THRILL: Elation and exhaustion as runners, joggers and 

walkers cross the finish line. 

SMALL CHANGE 

MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE 

Twice a year we clear the Community Fund collection boxes at 

Christchurch Airport and share the money across the community. 

Kiwi dollars, international currency, small change from your cup 

of coffee, plus a top-up donation from us, all add up for local 

charities and community projects. 

180 Degrees Trust uses outdoor adventures to inspire 

and teach life skills to vulnerable Canterbury youth, to 

develop self-awareness, confidence and decision making 

skills and so initiate a turnaround in young people’s lives.

At the Heart of Our Community 

Market Comment with Craig Prier 

Typically at this time of year the number of properties 

coming to the market increases significantly over 

previous months. This year has been the same. 

Throughout February and now March we have seen a 

genuine increase in properties available for buyers 

to ponder over and choose from. However, 

keep in mind, good properties with robust and 

widespread marketing programes still attract 

the most interest and chances are you will still be having to compete with other qualified 

buyers in the marketplace. So, a wee word of advice; the property you looked at today and 

want to think about until tomorrow may be the same property that someone else looked at 

yesterday and will be making a decision on today! 

It’s always good to carefully consider what you are buying but we recommend that you get 

yourself in a position to buy so when the right property for you comes along you can act fast if you have to. 

Best wishes and happy hunting!

DAMAGE: More 

than 80ha of the 

Ohinetahi Reserve 

was destroyed in 

the Port Hills fire 

last month and it 

is a race against 

nature to try and 

rejuvenate the land. 

$35k boost for reserve 

• By Caitlin Miles and 

Noah Graham 

REJUVENATION OF 

Ohinetahi Reserve has been 

given a $35,000 boost. 

The Banks Peninsula Zone 

Committee decided to approve 

the funding to help the Summit 

Road Society with the work 

needed – which could take years 

and cost millions. 

Society president Bill Woods 

said it was great news which 

would enable the group to start 

repairing the 83ha of damage, 

starting with the 1.3km of 

fencing which was ruined in last 

month’s Port Hills fires. 

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. 

“The $35,000 gives us a real 

boost, we can start getting trees 

and other things we need,” Mr 

Woods said. 

Zone committee chairwoman 

Paula Smith said it was “time 

sensitive” to get this funding 

to organisations as quickly as 

possible. 

The society has set up a 

Givealittle page to raise money 

for the project, which has raised 

$7647. 

Mr Woods said money raised 

will be spent as needed, with the 

group wanting to work quickly 

to start rejuvenating the area. 

“We’re facing a pretty formidable 

task, we need money now,” 

he said. 

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. 

The Summit Road Society 

was the hardest hit landowner 

from the fire, with a huge loss in 

native biodiversity in Ohinetahi 

Reserve.

Art auction to benefit school 

ARTISTS FROM around the 

country are helping Lyttelton 

Primary School raise money for 

a technology space. 

The Peninsula Art Auction 

will be held next month and 

is the major fundraiser for the 

school, with the money raised 

going towards furthering the 

technology department at the 

school. 

Principal Brendan Wright said 

he looked forward to what the 

money raised from the event 

could do for the pupils at the 

school. 

“We look forward to using the 

funds raised to support learning 

in and through the arts (and) to 

support new and exciting school 

initiatives to inspire and engage 

our learners,” Mr Wright said. 

More than 60 artists from the 

peninsula and further afield have 

decided to gift pieces of art for 

the auction, along with 12 businesses 

which are also offering 

support. 

One of the organisers, Claire 

Warren, said they were thankful 

for the support. 

“The organising committee 

and the school are always so 

grateful for the wonderful support 

we receive from our local 

businesses and the many residents 

who come to the event,” 

she said. 

It will be the seventh time this 

event has run. 

The event will take place on 

April 8-9 at the school and the 

AUCTION: This piece by Sheila Brown, called Above the Flax, 

Tui, will be auctioned off at the show. With the money going 

towards the school. 

art works will be available for 

viewing and silent auction bidding 

all weekend by gold coin 

donation. 

The silent auction will then be 

combined with the live auction 

gala event at 7pm on Sunday. 

•Tickets for the live auction 

cost $40 and will be available 

for purchase from www. 

peninsula-art.co.nz and from 

Lyttelton Primary School. For

GREEN FINGERS: Last week, Sumner School’s Gardening Club 

presented their exhibit at the Odering’s Garden Show. The 

theme for the show was ‘Once Upon a Time . . .’ The school 

designed an exhibit which showed what a supermarket might 

look like if the plant life took it over. They grew their own 

vegetables, designed the exhibit, made and collected props 

and painted the backdrop. They were awarded a bronze award 

by the judges.

Your Local Views 

Community cleans up Lyttelton 

Lyttelton 

resident Juliet 

Neill was 

unhappy with 

the state of her 

neighbourhood, 

so she helped 

organise a clean up. She 

writes about the area’s 

rubbish problem 

Recently we had a big harbour 

clean-up. About 60 wonderful 

people braved the rain and slogged 

away for one-and-a-half hours. I 

expected maybe six or seven hardy 

souls to appear, so imagine my 

surprise and delight when so many 

turned up. I can’t thank people 

enough. 

We covered areas from the Lyttelton 

football field, right through 

to Cass Bay, as well as the old 

Shadbolt House car park. At least a 

skip full of rubbish was collected, 

as well as two bins worth of recycling. 

As a Green Party member, I 

organised this event along with 

Ken Maynard and Chris Brown 

(both Lyttelton Labour people), 

not just as a political statement, 

but to show that we don’t just talk, 

we walk the talk as well. However, 

my main motivation was my passion 

for the environment and our 

beautiful harbour. 

In the 23 years I have lived in 

Lyttelton, I have seen great change, 

and none so great as in the postearthquake 

years. During that 

time, we have become increasingly 

a playground for Christchurch, 

meaning that more people come 

over to enjoy our harbour, some 

of whom have a very uncaring attitude 

towards it. 

One of the results of this is that 

people can go down to the waterfront 

to do exactly as they wish 

and they do – chucking their cans, 

bottles, cigarette butts everywhere 

they go or drive, tagging and 

sometimes lighting fires. 

While the city council and the 

port company do some cleaning 

up, it is seldom enough and any 

amount of clean ups do not get to 

the source of the problem. 

Meanwhile, wildlife, both marine 

and terrestrial, are suffering. 

Fish ingest the plastic in the sea 

and, if they don’t die, they pass 

it down the food chain, affecting 

us as well. It is estimated that a 

quarter of the fish we eat contain 

plastic. So what can we do to help 

instil pride in our local environment? 

The first and obvious thing 

we can do is to have better policing. 

Our police station is no longer 

staffed constantly. Some years ago 

there was 24-hour policing in Lyttelton. 

We all knew the police here 

and they were friendly and helpful. 

Secondly, we need to encourage 

personal responsibility through 

education. A lot is going on in our 

local schools, but there still seems 

to be a level of ignorance, wilful 

or otherwise, of environmental 

problems among adults. 

Thirdly, we need to create 

a coastal environment that is 

pleasing and restful. Our accessible 

coastal area has either 

been stripped of trees or badly 

maintained invasive species have 

stripped it of trees and shrubs. So 

much could be done to beautify 

the area and make it a place where 

birds can thrive, a place which is 

respected and engenders respect. 

Finally, and most importantly, 

we need Government action at 

both a local and national level. 

This includes providing incentives 

for the return of bottles and cans 

(50 cents per item?). If plastic bags 

can’t be phased out altogether, 

then at least a charge should be 

put on them to encourage people 

to use reusable bags. We need 

Government action to get rid of as 

much plastic wrapping as possible. 

There are many alternatives. 

So a big thank you to all those 

who joined in the clean up and 

let us not forget that this is a great 

start to pushing for change on this 

enormous problem. 

COLLECTION: Ruth Dyson also took part in the clean up, helping collect a skip worth of 

rubbish. 

MPs join residents to help tidy area 

Green MP 

Eugenie Sage 

writes about the 

clean up and the 

importance of 

reducing the use of plastic 

bags by being more aware 

of the damage they cause 

to the environment 

I was impressed that about 60 

people turned up at Naval Point 

on a wet, cold and grey Sunday 

morning recently to help clean 

up the Lyttelton foreshore and 

tank farm area. In spite of the 

southerly rain, people came 

from Lyttelton, Mt Pleasant and 

town. I worked with primary 

school teacher, Bonnie, and 

engineering student Sam. Like 

many, they have busy lives but 

wanted to give something back 

to their community. 

Thanks to everyone who 

came, including Port Hills MP 

Ruth Dyson, and the support 

of the city council, the port 

company and Naval Point 

Yacht Club, we left Magazine 

Bay, nearby reserves, the sports 

TEAM: About 60 volunteers

the clean up in Lyttelton. 

ground and surrounding areas 

better than when we started. 

The rubbish removed included 

tyres, old furniture, household 

waste, broken glass, cans and 

plastic. And there was the bonus 

of meeting new people. 

We can each do our best to 

recycle, re-use, be conscious 

consumers and avoid buying 

over packaged goods. Groups 

such as Plastic Bag Free Lyttelton 

help with their advocacy. 

But we need political leadership 

by central Government to really 

reduce waste. 

Large retailers in the United 

Kingdom have reduced their 

use of single-use plastic bags by 

85 per cent since the UK Government 

introduced a 5p levy 

in October 2015. In six months, 

the levy saved more than 40,800 

tonnes of plastic and generated 

£92 million, which the retailers 

donated to charities of their 

choice. A win-win solution. 

It’s estimated that New Zealanders 

use 1.6 billion single-use 

plastic bags annually, with 

around 40,000 sent to landfills 

each hour. Making them uses 

around 192,000 barrels of oil 

each year, which adds to our 

climate pollution. 

New Zealand is one of the 

few Organisation for Economic 

Cooperation and Development 

countries which hasn’t 

legislated on single-use plastic 

bags. This is in spite of a 16,266 

signature petition to Parliament 

in 2014/15 supported by Forest 

and Bird, Greenpeace and the 

World Wildlife Fund. Government 

members on the select 

committee chose the status quo 

and recommended no action. 

That needs to change.

Sumner play for second title 

SUMNER HAVE put 

themselves in a good position 

to secure the overall senior A 

metro cricket title on Saturday. 

After the first two innings 

of their final two-day match 

of the season against Halswell, 

Sumner holds a 69-run lead. 

They are currently third and 

out of title contention in the 

two-day competition. 

However, an outright win 

against Halswell will see them 

win the overall title, which 

combines points from both 

the one and two-day competitions. 

In December, Sumner won 

the one-day competition 

with a nine wicket win over 

Lancaster Park Addington in 

the final. 

Saturday’s first day at 

Halswell Domain saw Sumner 

put into bat in the morning. 

They made a steady start 

with openers Leigh Percasky 

(20) and Brett Taylor (31) both 

MONCKS Bay’s Christchurch 

Yacht Club will celebrate its 

125th season of sailing on 

Saturday. 

The Mitre 10 Two Tides 

regatta will start the festivities 

in the morning. 

This four-race series 

combines two low-tide races 

on Sumner bar in the morning 

making starts before being 

dismissed. Captain Johnny 

Beveridge also chipped in 

with 24. However, none of the 

top order were able to go onto 

scores of note. The middle order 

stumbled with four ducks 

but Dan Vann managed to 

score a free-flowing 43 off 33 

balls as Sumner reached a first 

innings total of 160 all out. 

In reply, Halswell were very 

cautious with Sumner’s opening 

bowlers Dean Smith (3-33) 

and Andrew Bird (3-11), giving 

very little away. 

Halswell captain Leighton 

Johnston (46) was the best of 

the batsmen and used his luck 

well after being dropped early 

on. 

Halswell were eventually 

dismissed for 118. 

Sumner then had time to 

begin their second innings 

and after eight overs are 27/1, 

holding a 69 run lead going 

into Saturday. 

and two high-tide races in the 

Estuary in the afternoon. 

All sailors from other 

yacht cubs are welcome to 

participate. 

There will also be several 

land-based family events 

for both members and nonmembers, 

including a bouncy 

castle and a treasure hunt. 

The club has strong fleets of 

Zephyrs and Lasers, which are 

supported by a growing 

fleet of juniors sailing 

Optimists, P Class, Starlings 

and Sunbursts. 

The club also offers learnto-sail

McNeill who will return 

from Australia to surf two divisions

Taylors Mistake lifesavers haul 

in the medals at New Brighton 

• By Gordon Findlater 

TAYLORS MISTAKE Surf Life 

Saving Club’s Liam O’Loughlin 

and Fred Teear added to their 

growing list of national titles 

together at the weekend. 

O’Loughlin and Teear won 

gold in the open men’s double 

ski race final at the New Zealand 

Surf Life Saving Championships 

on New Brighton Beach. They 

finished a boat length clear of 

Mairangi Bay, Auckland, to win 

their third national title in the 

event and their first since 2011. 

“It was really good being in 

Christchurch this year; we really 

wanted to get it done on our own 

beach,” said O’Loughlin. 

The pair have paddled together 

for Taylors Mistake since 

2010. However, their history 

together stretches beyond that in 

flat water kayaking. 

Both O’Loughlin and Teear 

have won national titles in the 

K2 and K4. They have been part 

of New Zealand teams at World 

Cup races and came close to 

qualifying for the 2012 London 

Olympics. 

The pair still train together up 

to five times a week and, since 

going to ski boats, have represented 

New Zealand in surf life 

saving. O’Loughlin also claimed 

a silver medal in the open men’s 

ski race at New Brighton. 

In total, the Taylors Mistake 

GOLD: Liam O’Loughlin and Fred Teear won their third 

national double ski title at the New Zealand Surf Life Saving 

Championships in New Brighton at the weekend. 

club collected two gold, three 

silver and two bronze medals 

in the open and age group 

categories. The medal haul saw it 

finish 18th in the 45-club points 

competition. 

Georgia Stroud claimed a gold 

and a silver for Taylors Mistake 

in the 2km beach run. She won 

the under-19 race before going 

on to finish second in the open 

women’s event. Benjamin Phillips 

won silver in the open men’s 

2km beach run. Louis Clark 

completed the medals for Taylors 

Mistake by winning bronze 

in both the under-16 boys’ run 

swim run, and surf race events. 

Clark was also the only 

Christchurch athlete named in 

the New Zealand youth squad 

following the championships. 

Sumner Surf Life Saving 

Club’s Seb Johnson was also 

named in the New Zealand 

development squad. 

Surf Life Saving New Zealand 

will select teams from the 

squads to represent New Zealand 

at the 2017 Sanyo Cup in 

June, the World Games in July 

and the International Surf Rescue 

Challenge in November.

Travel 

Searching for Santa in Lapland 

YOU Travel company 

director Melissa 

Landrebe visited a town 

named Luosto in Finish 

Lapland. She writes 

about the highlights of 

her stay 

AFTER AN interesting British 

Airways charter flight, where the 

cabin was decked with tinsel and 

our flight attendants wore Santa 

hats and sang Christmas carols, 

we landed in Rovaniemi to begin 

a quest to find Santa. 

We were met by our representative 

and led to our coach, which 

would take us on the 1½- hour 

journey into the Arctic Circle to 

a little township called Luosto. 

As it turns out, Luosto is a veritable 

winter wonderland that is 

supposedly home to the big man 

in the red suit. 

We arrived late afternoon on 

December 23, under what was 

described by our representative 

as an amazing display of Aurora 

borealis. 

We were issued with snow suits 

and boots and then transported 

to our choice of accommodation, 

in our case a two-storey log 

cabin. 

After settling in, we made 

our way to dinner pulling the 

children on toboggans, and ate a 

hearty buffet meal. The trip back 

to the log cabin proved to be a lot 

easier, as it was downhill. 

Being in the Arctic Circle in 

the middle of winter is a joy in itself 

with approximately 4½ hours 

of light a day. The rest of the time 

it is dark, lit only by stars and 

flames from oil burners placed 

alongside walkways. 

With the arrival of Christmas 

Eve the search for Santa began 

in earnest. First we were taken 

tobogganing at the base of the 

skifield situated 2min by coach 

from town central, then we were 

back in the coach heading for the 

snowmobile field where Santa 

was supposedly seen earlier doing 

doughnuts. 

Alas, when we arrived Santa 

SCENIC: 

Luosto is 

a winter 

wonderland 

as Melissa 

Landrebe 

and 

daughter 

Paige 

Beardsley 

found out. 

was nowhere to be seen; however, 

there was a good number of 

snowmobiles to be ridden. 

Next up was a trip to the husky 

kennels and after a brief explanation 

of how to control a pack of 

energetic sled dogs, we were off. 

This was physically exerting, 

but very exciting and was probably 

the activity enjoyed the most 

by our group. 

After the sled rides it was time 

for lunch and we got to meet 

some of Santa’s special elves. 

What an exciting bunch they 

were, full of vim and vigour. 

We then re-boarded the coach 

heading for Santa’s post office, 

and we were amazed when the 

elf working there produced a letter 

to Santa written by one of the 

children aboard our coach – a 

truly magical moment. 

We started heading back 

to town central, stopping on 

the way to see where Santa’s 

special elves live. Then it was 

time to head back to dinner in 

anticipation of Christmas Day to 

follow. 

As it was, we were unsuccessful 

in finding Santa that day. 

However, in hindsight he was 

probably busy delivering parcels 

to children in other parts of the 

world. 

Christmas Day dawned, it 

snowed, the fire was lit and presents 

were opened. 

Then, what better thing to do 

on Christmas Day, it was off to 

ride a sleigh pulled by reindeer, 

a journey through snow-covered 

trees at a leisurely pace. 

We then had to check up on 

one of Santa’s special elves before 

heading back to get ready for 

Christmas dinner and a disco for 

the children. 

This is definitely a bucket-list 

trip.

Driven 

Mercedes-Benz cabriolet for fun in the sun 

• By Ross Kiddie 

OVER THE years I’ve been guilty 

of heavily criticising Canterbury’s 

changeable climate. 

I make no apology for that, 

the ‘four seasons in one day’ 

temperatures that we get here can 

be frustrating. 

Take last weekend when I was 

driving Mercedes-Benz’s C200 

cabriolet, the weather was so foul 

I barely had any opportunity to 

drive with the roof lowered, only 

briefly experiencing open-air 

motoring. 

However, in spite of our fickle 

weather, sales of convertibles here 

don’t seem to be waning. Those 

who I know that own a convertible 

enjoy them even though 

there are just a few glorious days 

in a year when driving with the 

top open really suits. 

The C200 convertible is part of 

a wide-ranging C-Class line-up. 

It arrives here in three variations, 

well I should say three different 

engine options. There’s a hearty 

4-litre, 375kW V8, a 3-litre, 

270kW V6 and the turbocharged 

2-litre, four-cylinder which is the 

subject of this evaluation. All are 

petrol-fuelled. 

The 1991cc turbo engine 

is the same as that which I’ve 

experienced many times in the 

Mercedes-Benz line-up, and it is 

characterised by its healthy power 

outputs (135kW and 300Nm) and 

smooth operating manner. It is 

harnessed to a nine-speed automatic 

transmission, the combination 

is reactive, power flows freely 

and response to driver input is 

constantly encouraging. 

That is something that I’ve 

come to enjoy with this engine, 

it is wholeheartedly honest and 

works with freedom through the 

transmission. 

Even though it is far from being 

the most powerful configuration 

(280kW in AMG form), it 

is a mainstream engine which 

punches way above its weight. 

Its performance figures are testament 

to that, the car will accelerate 

to 100km/h from a standstill 

in 8.2sec and it will make an 

overtaking manoeuvre in 5.1sec 

(80km/h to 120km/h). 

These figures provide the driver 

with a satisfying feel. At the same 

time the C200 doesn’t gobble fuel 

unnecessarily, Mercedes-Benz 

claims a 6.8-litre per 100km 

(42mpg) combined cycle average. 

That sits well with the 8.8l/100km 

(33mpg) figure constantly sitting 

on the test car’s fuel usage readout. 

The C200 also has a variety of 

drive options that the driver can 

choose to suit his/her style, all are 

self-explanatory – eco, comfort, 

sport, sport plus, or you can load 

in your own preferred protocols. 

Personally, I preferred the standard 

sport setting, it still allows the 

engine freedom without being 

overly flighty such as it is when in 

sport plus setting. 

I took the test car through 

the flowing scenic route of State 

Highway 72 branching off near 

Hororata and enjoyed the C200 

MERCEDES-BENZ C200 CABRIOLET: 

The roof raises and lowers with a 

simple flick of a switch. 

cabriolet’s quiet motion of speed, 

sound is well isolated, and you can’t 

always say that about convertibles, 

it travels with grace and dignity. 

It also feels rigid in the body, 

the lack of a solid roof doesn’t 

affect the strength of the structure. 

The C200 feels taut and 

firmly planted, a lot of the latter 

has to do with the quality of the 

rubber; huge, sport specification 

Continental tyres (225/45 and 

245/40 x 18in) have unyielding 

grip along with positive feedback. 

Steering feel is light rather than 

firm, but that matters little, it is 

directional and it responds positively 

to cornering pressure. 

While its driving dynamics sit 

well with the convertible’s look, 

it’s best remembered that in this 

form (and the coupe) it is only 

a four-seater, there are only two 

seat belts in the rear, if you want

The C200 convertible lands 

here at $89,900, the test car was 

carrying a few extra bits and 

pieces which raised the price to 

$94,790. And that is something 

a C200 buyer will need to appreciate, 

there are a multitude of 

specification enhancements and 

buying choices that can personalise 

or enhance the car. Even in 

standard form it is well-equipped 

and, of course, the roof raises and 

lowers with the flick of a button. 

While the C200 cabriolet will 

be far from Mercedes-Benz’s biggest 

seller, it is there to keep sales 

rolling along, the German brand 

is experiencing boom times down

Popular bakery adds international 

ideas to its lineup 

.kiwi 

BAY HARBOUR 

The team at Lyttelton Bakery is now into 

its third year in the new Norwich Quay 

premises, and the business is going very 

well, says owner Ian Scott. 

“We are well supported by the local 

community and we thank them for that,” 

he says. 

In addition to the delicious fresh breads, 

rolls, biscuits, slices, pies and savouries 

the customers enjoy, Lyttelton Bakery also 

incorporates the Glamour Cake business, 

run by team member Bree. A specialist in 

fine patisserie work, she creates a tempting 

selection of scrumptious sweet treats for 

Glamour Cake. 

Just before Christmas there was a 

temporary addition to the baking team, a 

young woman from Switzerland, who had 

seen the Glamour Cakes on Facebook 

and wanted to find out more about 

the bakery. Qualified baker Rebecca 

Strickler spent a week at Lyttelton 

Bakery, where she not only saw pies 

being made for the first time in her life, 

she also passed on many of her own 

Swiss baking ideas. 

“She had never seen sausage rolls 

or savouries being made either,” says 

Ian. “The Swiss tend to eat more sweet 

foods.” 

In June this year, a young baker 

from France will also spend time at 

the bakery, adding more international 

input to the bakery’s lineup. 

With Easter fast approaching, Ian 

and the team are busy baking not only the 

traditional hot cross buns, but also a Dutch 

favourite, Oliebollen. This is a deep-fried 

sweet donut containing a mixture of fruit – 

a very rich treat usually eaten at New Year 

in The Netherlands, but perfect to enjoy at 

Easter time in New Zealand. 

Customers can also sit down and relax 

with a tasty treat and a hot drink in the 

bakery’s cosy café. 

Lyttelton Bakery is located at 8 

Norwich Quay and is open from 6.30am- 

5pm Monday to Friday and 7am-3pm 

Saturday. Phone 328 9004.

CONTINUING EDUCATION 

FLAME FILES 

Farm life has 

plenty to offer 

young people 

From city girl to sharemilker to equity 

farmer, North Canterbury’s Wendy Croft has 

come a long way in a sector that allows young 

people to work hard and prosper. 

“I was working in a bank before I got into 

farming. I had never milked a cow, but we got 

into sharemilking to save money, and it was 

easier for me to manage it than to get someone 

else to do it.” 

Three years ago Wendy 

enrolled in Ara Institute 

of Canterbury’s NZ 

Diploma in Agribusiness 

Management; a practical 

qualification for working 

farmers that is delivered 

online with face to face 

tutorials in Culverden. 

The programme is 

run with the Primary 

ITO and was rated as 

“excellent” by the New 

Zealand Qualifications 

Authority (NZQA) in a 

recent report. 

With two young 

children and a business 

to run, Wendy balanced her studies with her 

family and work commitments. 

““I think my husband and I worked together 

every day for three years! It was hard, and it’s 

not for everyone. It’s challenging but it’s really 

rewarding.” 

Does she miss her city lifestyle? “Yes, 

sometimes I miss the city, but I love the lifestyle 

here – I have good neighbours and good staff.” 

SCARRED: Scorched trees on the Port Hills, some are still hot and in danger of 

reigniting. 

Tree trunks still smouldering 

• By Mark Thomas – Fire 

Risk Management Officer 

NEARLY A month after 

the big Port Hills fire 

started we are still getting 

the odd call to smouldering 

stumps or tree trunks. 

The latest was on Monday 

off Dyers Pass Rd 

during a day of rain and 

it shows how deep and 

persistent large wildfires 

can be. 

There were a couple of 

instances this week of what 

could kindly be called as 

muddled thinking. 

In the first on Monday in 

Knowles St a large burning 

candle was placed on the 

Ferrymead 

top of a free standing fireplace 

– that was operating 

due to the cold snap. 

Of course the candle 

melted all over and down 

the fireplace and ignited. 

No real damage but 

smoke throughout. 

The second involved a 

tourist in a hotel room 

who put the kettle on an 

element on the stove top to 

make tea. 

Unfortunately it was an 

electric, and far more importantly, 

plastic kettle. 

Smoke and mess again. 

We also saw a toaster in 

a cupboard in Redwood 

cause a lot of heat and 

some real concern from the 

A Piece of the World 

by Christina Baker Kline 

‘Graceful, moving and powerful . . . a wonderful 

story that seems to have been waiting, all this time, 

for Kline to come along and tell it’ MICHAEL CHABON 

For decades, Christina Olson’s whole world has been 

a rocky, windswept point on the coast of Maine, the 

farmhouse her ancestors fled to from the Salem witch trials. 

A world she fears she will never leave. As a girl, farm life asked more 

of Christina than it did her family, her wasting limbs turning every task 

into a challenge. But the very tenacity that strengthened her may dash 

her chances for a life beyond her chores and extinguish her hopes 

for love. Years pass and Christina’s solitude is broken by the arrival 

of Andrew Wyeth, a young artist who is fixated on the isolated farm 

house. In Christina he will discover more than a kindred spirit; for him, 

she will become a muse like no other…From the bestselling author 

of ORPHAN TRAIN comes a luminous portrait of a woman of grit and 

grace, as heartwarming as it is gripping. A story that allows the reader 

to marvel at Andrew Wyeth’s iconic portrait from the other side. 

Geek Girl (6) - Forever Geek 

by Holly Smale 

My name is Harriet Manners and I’ll be a geek forever…The FINAL 

book in the bestselling, award-winning GEEK GIRL series is here! 

Harriet Manners knows almost every fact there is. Modelling isn’t a 

sure-fire route to popularity. Neither is making endless lists. The people 

you love don’t expect you to transform into someone else. Statistically 

you are more likely to not meet your Australian ex-boyfriend in 

Australia than bump into him there. So on the trip of a lifetime Down 

Under Harriet’s to-do lists are gone and it’s Nat’s time to shine! Yet 

with nearly-not-quite-boyfriend Jasper back home, Harriet’s completely 

unprepared to see supermodel ex Nick. Is the fashion world about to 

turn ugly for GEEK GIRL? It’s time for Harriet to face the future. Time to 

work out where her heart lies. To learn how to let go...

‘Appliance garages’ have 

been around for many 

years now. 

They consist of what is 

generally a small roller 

door covering toaster and 

kettle with a power point 

available inside. 

They will generally work 

fine in this way. 

But they should never be 

closed while this happens. 

There have been a few 

fires over the years where 

the roller door has been 

shut on to the knob of the 

toaster, preventing it from 

popping up. 

The result can be devastating.

These conditions may be caused 

by repetitive tasks, forceful exertions, 

vibrations, mechanical compression, or 

sustained or awkward positions. 

The shorter and tenser the muscle, the 

harder it pulls on the places it attaches to 

(e.g. the bone). When this happens in the 

forearm the pull at those attachments and 

tendons causes irritation and inflammation 

of those areas. This will be noticed as pain in 

the elbow and wrist. When this happens in 

the neck and shoulder area, it will be noticed 

as local pain, stiffness and sometimes 

headaches. The nerves run right through 

the muscles. Tension on the muscles causes 

pressure on the nerves. As the muscles 

shorten, the nerves running through them 

have a tendency to both shorten and slide 

less well. This causes the nerves to radiate 

pain throughout the arm. 

Triggerpoints are areas in your muscles, 

where a few muscle fibres have contracted 


in a knot. These knots (the hard and painful 

areas in your muscles felt during massage) 

weaken and shorten your muscles and can 

cause referred pain. 

This drawing is an example of pain areas 

(the red area), caused by triggerpoints (the 

black X). 

This is your muscle’s reaction to continuous 

 

irritation. In most cases, there are multiple 

causes for this irritation. These could be: 

repeated actions without breaks; constant 

static posture resulting in constant muscle 

contraction; lack of healthy blood flow; bad 

posture resulting in continuous high loading 

of some muscles, etc. 

As you can see, your thumb pain can 

originate in your neck. Pain in your little 

.kiwi 

 

 

 

finger or forearm 

can originate in 

your chest. This 

is the reason that 

your therapist 

may treat an 

area, other than 

 

where you are 

experiencing 

 

pain. 

In the following 

drawing you can 

see the painful 

areas in the head 

caused by the 

triggerpoint in the neck. This is often the 

result of poor posture. 

Physical Sense has been treating 

this condition for the last 25 years. 

 

Their experience is: 

 

• Most of the patients who have had their 

 

pain for less than a year leave this clinic free 

of pain (but they have to be very careful to 

avoid relapses). 

• When the OOS pain has been there 

for more than a year, that percentage drops 

to 60%. 

• The other 40% will leave the clinic with 

relief of pain and with knowledge about 

numerous strategies to relieve and handle 

the remaining pain.

immaculately presented home has that 

“feel good factor”! A grand, double height 

entrance sets the tone as you walk in the 

double front doors. There’s an abundance 

of sunlight flooding in through skylights 

above, creating a generous sense of space. 

Two interconnected living areas create an 

expansive entertainment zone, with both 

having direct access to the outdoor seating 

area and pristine gardens beyond. Casual 

living is tiled, and the open plan layout 

incorporates the kitchen and dining areas, 

while the formal living room is carpeted 

in a beautiful deep charcoal, with a feature 

fireplace. 

The designer kitchen is fully equipped 

to cater to all of your culinary needs, with 

granite bench tops, gas hobs, and a quality 

stainless steel wall oven. Loads of bench

bathroom has a spa bath and separate 

shower and both bathrooms are elegant in 

design, with feature skylights and quality 

fittings creating a real air of contemporary 

style. 

The garden is the real cherry on top, 

providing a lush green environment, which 

is sunny and private with lovely views of 

the surrounding hills. A nicely separated 

utility area and vege garden will appeal 

to the green-fingered. Triple car garaging 

with internal access and loads of off street 

parking add the final convenience factors, 

as if you needed more convincing, so get 

your skates on and come and check this 

one out!
