Historic buildings reopen
• By Caitlin Miles
IT’S ANOTHER step forward
as more historic buildings are
repaired and reopened in Banks
Peninsula – with five expected
this month.
The historic Stoddart Cottage
is expected to open today, while
the Diamond Harbour Community
Centre War Memorial Hall
is expected to open tomorrow.
Stoddart Cottage has been
closed while repairs were completed.
Cottage Trust chairwoman
Paula Smith said it was a fantastic
to have it finished and she was
looking forward to it opening
back up to the community.
“It’s great to have it opening;
it’s sort of weird when it’s closed
– there’s something sad about it,”
Ms Smith said.
Repairs at Custom House in
Akaroa have also been completed.
It was able to stay open to the
public to view during the repair
work. It was damaged in the February
22, 2011, earthquake.
The brick chimney was reconstructed
in a lightweight method,
which included a steel frame
and ply bracing to the necessary
walls. Internal repairs and full
interior and exterior decorating
have also been undertaken.
Work is in the final stages,
RESTORED: Stoddart Cottage
has been carefully restored

with the house expected to open
at the end of the month.
Coronation Library, also in
Akaroa, was fully stripped on
the inside and needed repainting
following earthquake damage
and maintenance issues. A new
heating system has also been
installed at the library.
Minor works on Governors
Bay Old School House have
also been completed. It will
open to the public at the end
of the month now that the
deconstruction of the chimney
and completion of a new
heating system has been done.
The school house’s opening
was slightly delayed while the
new heating system was made
compatible with the original
1928 switchboard. A repaint of
the interior and exterior has also
been completed.
More buildings across the
peninsula are expected to open
throughout the year.
Sumner play
first home
game of
the season
After three tough weeks on the road,
Sumner play their first home game
of the season at St Leonards Square
on Saturday against University. The
team will warm up at Van Asch Deaf
Education Centre before making the
short run to their home ground ahead
of kick-off at 2.45pm. Sumner will look
to turn the tides after going down to
University 28-38 in the pre-season.

FROM
THE
REPORTER’S
DESK
IF YOU have ever been to an
Anzac Day ceremony, it is a
very moving moment indeed.
While standing there, it is
almost overwhelming to think
about the enormous sacrifice
men and families made.
Imagining the loss of your
friends – including those you
have over for dinner or for a
barbecue – in the most brutal
of fashion is incomprehensible
to a generation not
immediately impacted by war.
We have the details of Anzac
Day ceremonies on page 3 this
week, followed on page 5 by a
story about Bill Mitchell, the
104-year-old who will lead the
main parade.
Finally, on pages 7 and 8, we
look at the fallen soldiers who
have been commemorated
in an exhibition at Linwood
Library.

No 24/7 police for port
• By Caitlin Miles
LYTTELTON WON’T be
getting a 24/7 service – even
though numerous police
stations across the country will
be staffed around the clock over
the next five years.
Police numbers will be
boosted by 20 per cent across
the country with an additional
1125 police staff hired.
Lyttelton Police Station is
currently staffed 9am-5pm but
officers patrol and have support
from Christchurch when the
station is closed.
There are currently
six officers
at Lyttelton.
It will not
become 24/7
or have officers
added – which
Peter
Newsome
was disappointing
news for
residents.
At a recent meeting between
police and members of the
community, Canterbury metro
commander Superintendent
Lane Todd said there is no case
for Lyttelton to be staffed 24/7
but officers from Christchurch
will still be available to answer
the needs of the community.
It was not the news former detective
Peter Newsome wanted

to hear, and he said he would
still argue for it. He said if the
station was staffed all the time it
would reassure the community
of a greater response.
Resident Paul Dietche agreed,
he said it was “a disgrace” to
the community that the station
would not be staffed all the time.
“It’s not surprising, but it is
frustrating,” Mr Dietche said.
Superintendant Todd said
there was currently no need for
the police station to be staffed
24/7 as there were not enough
resources, especially considering
the crime rate has reduced
in the area.
Acting Inspector Paul Reeves
said from 2015 to 2016 crime in
the area had dropped eight per
cent, with 122 crimes reported
last year, down from the 133
reported the year before.
But Mr Dietche said he still
wants more police and to have
the station open constantly so
the community didn’t have to
rely on officers coming from the
city to answer calls for help.
“It’s always my biggest fear
that something really bad will
happen to a person, or the community,
before the police make
themselves more available,” Mr
Dietche said.
Peninsula gears up
for Anzac Day services
IT’S A week until Anzac Day
and commemoration plans are
under way across the peninsula
to remember those who died in
war.
Every year members
of the community and
organisations prepare
to march and attend
various commemorations
as a mark of
respect.
Numerous roads will
also be closed to allow
for parades and marches,
with services taking place
throughout the peninsula next
Wednesday.
Martindales Rd and Flavell St
in Heathcote will be closed from
5.30am-7am for a dawn parade,
followed by a service at the
corner of Martindales and Bridle
Path Rds at 6.15am.
Western Valley Rd in Little
River will be closed from 9am-
10.30am for a parade which
will end at the war memorial
gates where a wreath will be
laid to honour those who never
returned.
A service will be held in the
community hall at 9.30am followed
by morning tea at the
community centre.
A Lyttelton RSA service will be
held from 9.45am at the corner of
London and Oxford Sts. The city
council has approved the closure
of London St from 9.45am-11am
for the parade.
In Sumner those taking
part in the parade
should meet at the
corner of Stoke St
and the Esplanade
at 10.40am with the
parade scheduled
to start at 10.50am
followed by a service
at the war memorial by
the Beach Bar at 11am.
Wakefield Ave, Mariner St
and the Esplanade will be closed
from 10.50am-12.30am.
The Akaroa RSA Service will
include a parade which will start
from the Akaroa Volunteer Fire
Station at 49 Beach Rd at 11am
followed by a service at the war
memorial at 11.30am.
Commemorations will be held
at the newly-reopened Diamond
Harbour Community Centre
War Memorial Hall following a
parade starting from the community
store at 10.30am.

Museum one step closer
AFTER SIX years without a
home, the Lyttelton Historical
Museum will be one step closer
to rebuilding – if the public
support the proposed site.
The city council has given initial
approval to gift land at 33-35
London St to the society for the
museum rebuild.
It will now go out for public
consultation and if the community
approve the location, the
city council will give the museum
the final sign-off to build.
The city council has backed
the proposal because it believes it
would bring significant cultural
benefits to the people of Lyttelton
and provide a unique tourist
attraction.
Lyttelton Historical Museum
Society chairman Peter Rough is
delighted that progress is being
made towards rebuilding the
museum.
The society had put a request
to Banks Peninsula Community
Board for the London St site
because it believed it was “ideal”
for a new museum.
The society believed placing it
at the middle of the community
would create a hub with other
community facilities nearby,
such as the Lyttelton Library and
Albion Square.
The museum’s former building
on Gladstone Quay was

museum will be built.
demolished after it was badly
damaged in the 2010 and 2011
earthquakes.
The society has already chosen
architects Warren and Mahoney
to design a new museum building
which could have three or
four levels.
Mr Rough hopes a final decision
on the land will be made
soon as the goal is to have a new
museum ready for opening in
2019.
It has $600,000 for the project
but estimates it will need to raise
another $5.3 million to construct
the building and help with operational
costs.
More than 8500 museum
items have been catalogued and
are currently in storage at the
New Zealand Air Force Museum
including significant artefacts
from maritime, military and
naval history.
The society expects more than
10,000 people a year would visit
a new museum.

A PEDESTRIAN island is
likely to be moved to a different
location in Martindales Rd due
to safety fears.
The request came from Heathcote
Valley School and concerned
residents due to concern pupils
weren’t able to cross the road, in
Heathcote Valley, safely.
There is currently a crossing at
the roundabout on the intersection
of Martindales and Port
Hills Rds, but a report from city
council staff said it provides “very
limited vision” for those using it.
This led to the request to have a
new crossing constructed further
along Martindales Rd, away from
the roundabout.
The idea to install a pedestrian
SAFETY:
This small
pedestrian
island may
be moved
further along
Martindales
Rd.
Plan to move
pedestrian island
island was supported by the
former Hagley-Ferrymead Community
Board.
Public consultation was meant
to be carried out from February
23 but a mix-up meant some papers
were delivered a week early.
The city council kept consultation
open until March 16 to give
people a fair chance to supply
their feedback on the proposal.
The city council only received
feedback from one organisation
and three residents, none opposing
the idea.
The Linwood-Central-
Heathcote Community Board is
expected to make a decision on
approving the new site at today’s
meeting.
If approved it is expected to
cost $45,000.

Crosses special
to parade leader
• By Bridget Rutherford
BILL MITCHELL imagines the
3200 inscribed white crosses that
line Cranmer Square as small bodies
of Cantabrians killed in World War
1.
The 104-year-old will lead the
Anzac Day parade in a Jeep on April
25, to remember those who lost
their lives.
As part of the commemorations,
the crosses were laid out last
week, which represent the men and
women who died in the first three
years of the war.
They are part of the four-yearlong
Regional Fields of Remembrance
Project, where the number
of crosses placed there each year
correlates to the number of those
killed at that point in the war.
Mr Mitchell lost an uncle in
World War 1, and he served in the
Air Force as a ground engineer in
the Pacific during World War 2.
He said during World War 1 and
World War 2, “life was cheap”. He
lost many “mates” while he served
in World War 2, and afterwards.
Next year, more crosses will be
laid out on the square, as it will represent
the final year of World War 1.
A special ceremony will be held in
Auckland on Armistice Day, where
every cross in the country will be
placed on display to mark the end of
the war.
Christchurch RSA president Pete
Dawson said the crosses were a poignant
reminder of how many men
and women were killed.
“New Zealand had a population
of one million people in 1915 and
of that, 10 per cent went to fight in
World War 1. Of that 10 per cent, 18
per cent did not return home.”
Anzac Day dawn service MC Paul
O’Connor MBE, said the crosses
showed the scale of what really happened
during World War 1, and in
each year it went on for.
The dawn service will be held at
Cranmer Square on April 25 from
6am.
Lieutenant Colonel Sir Walter
Hugh Malcolm Ross GCVO OBE
DL will be a special guest.
He is the Lord Prior – the third
most senior individual within the
Order of St John, under the Sovereign
Head the Queen, and the
Grand Prior.
Each year, more than 15,000
people attended the service.

Remembering the lives of fallen soldiers
SERVICE:
Seventeen World
War 1 soldiers with
links to Heathcote
Valley died
overseas protecting
their country in
World War 1. The
Linwood Library is
holding an exhibition
to display them
as people, rather
than as names on a
memorial.
• By Noah Graham
REMEMBERING soldiers as
people, rather than just names
on a memorial, is the goal of a
library exhibition.
The Linwood Library is
holding an exhibition this
month to display the lives,
personalities and achievements
of 17 soldiers with links to
Heathcote Valley who died in
World War 1.
Community learning librarian
Andrea Lord said the exhibition
aimed to take the names of the
soldiers, which are inscribed on
the Heathcote War Memorial,
and add a description of who
the soldiers were along with a
photograph.
She said as part of the
Government’s WW100
programme, groups across
the country are doing various
activities to help remember
those who fought in World War
1. She said starting out with
just the soldiers’ names, service
number and the knowledge they
had lived in Heathcote, library
staff compiled information
about who they were, what they
had done, where they had died
and how.
She said the soldiers in the
exhibition died in Gallipoli,
France and Palestine and it was
a shame their whole lives had
been reduced to a few words on
a memorial.
“All of the staff found
researching the soldiers really
meaningful and they were all

Adamson was living
with his parents
at 479 Hereford
St in Linwood and
studying law at
Canterbury College

enlisted. He was wounded in
the field in France in July, 1916.
He survived but was later killed
in action on October 31, 1918, at
the age of 25.
pleased they had done it.”
She said library staff would
walk past where the soldiers had
lived or places they had known
and could not help but think of
those places in a different way.
Mrs Lord said staff had spent
months trawling through library
records and old newspapers,
piecing together the soldiers’
lives.
She said the reaction from
people viewing the exhibition
had been really interesting.
“People have been stopping to
read about every single soldier.
“One lady had said how sad
it was and she found it quite
moving.”
The exhibition will run at the
Linwood Library in the Eastgate
Shopping Centre until April 30.
Rifleman
James Cogle
was born on
April 11, 1892,
and was raised
in Lyttelton.
He was a
fireman with
the New Zealand Railways.
He was killed in action
on September 15, 1916,
and served alongside his
brother, Robert, who also
served and died during the
war.
Rifleman Richard Burnell
attended Heathcote Valley
District School and Lyttelton
District High School. After he left
school, he joined the Railways
Department. He enlisted in
the army on May 31, 1915, as a
rifleman in the 2nd Battalion. On
September 24, 1916 he was killed in action
in the field at Somme, Northern France,
aged 25. He is remembered with Honour at
the Caterpillar (New Zealand) Memorial in
Longueval, Somme.
Gunner Walter
Parker was born
in Ashburton on
April 15, 1891. He
was 24 and a clerk
for New Zealand
Railways when
he first enlisted.
He lived at 77 Port Hills Road,
Heathcote, at the time. Parker
was killed in action on July 22,
1916, in the Battle of the Somme
and was buried at the Cite
Bonjean Military Cemetery in
Armentieres, France.
Private Hector Rhind grew up in Reserve Tce in
Lyttelton and lived at 117 Richardson St in Opawa
as a cycle mechanic working for Bell Bros. He
died on September 16, 1916, and was 23-yearsold
at the time.

More than names on a memorial
Private Michael Ian Adamson was born
on June 1, 1895, in Sumner. He was one
of six children born to Reverend Henry
Adamson and Marianne Burke Adamson.
He was serving in the North Canterbury
and Westland Regiment Territorial Forces
when he enlisted with the New Zealand
Expeditionary Force on April 19, 1915.
On March 27, 1918, he was 22 when he was seriously
wounded with a gunshot wound to the head and on
March 30 at 12.25pm, he died of his wounds. He had
a bout of bad luck in his service and had spent more
time recovering from injuries and illness than he spent
in military action.
John Wetherall was born in Prebbleton, on
May 24, 1886. His family lived at 26 Bridle
Path Rd in Heathcote Valley and he was a
malster at the Canterbury Seed Company,
responsible for taking cereals and making
malt out of the grain to be used to
create beer. In the Battle of Ayun Kara in
Palestine, on November 14, 1917, he was
killed in action and buried in Palestine. His grave can be
found in the Ramleh War Cemetery.
Lieutenant Lestock Henry Reid was born
on November 7, 1885, and grew up in
Ardlui, Rakaia. Reid attended Heathcote
Valley District School before he went to
Christchurch Boys’ High School. He was
28 and worked as a marine engineer in
the Mediterranean when war broke out.
He was 30 when he died in action during
the Battle of the Somme on May 20, 1916. He is buried

Diary of Gallipoli surgeon brought
SERVICE: Dr Percival Fenwick
during the Boer War in 1900.
“A more hellish Sunday
one could not conceive.
“Total to date 5000 (approximately)
casualties,
about three men per yard
of ground gained.”
• By Gabrielle Stuart
“IT SEEMED impossible
for men to live under the
hail of bullets” – that was
how Christchurch surgeon
Lieutenant-Colonel Percival
Fenwick described his
experience at Gallipoli.
He was one of the first New
Zealanders ashore at Anzac
Cove on April 25, 1915, and kept
a diary of the horrifying things
he saw there.
Parts of his diary have now
been used in a new project,
Ngā Tapuwae First World War
Trails, which tells stories from
battlefields where New Zealanders
fought.
It was designed as a guide for
people visiting the battlefields in
person for Anzac commemorations,
but can also be listened
to while exploring the scenes
online.
Lt Col
Fenwick’s
granddaughter,
Philippa Horn
(right), said his
diary was only
discovered after
his death.
“He very seldom spoke about
those things. The only thing
PROJECT: Dr Fenwick’s diary is being used to tell stories of battlefields where New Zealanders
fought. He is seen here in 1945 (left) and cutting the hair of a World War 1 soldier in Gallipoli.
he ever said, that I remember,
was that he was ashamed to
come out of Gallipoli alive,” she
said.
He was sent home after two
months at the front because he
developed paratyphoid, but he
wrote several letters to the army
in protest, asking to be sent
back, she said.
When World War 2 broke out,
then aged 69, he wrote letters
again asking to be allowed to
serve, but was told he was too
old.
Mrs Horn said he had served
in the Boer War for three years
as a younger man, and was
strongly driven to try to help
and heal as many as he could on
the battlefield.
In peacetime he worked as
a surgeon for many years in
Christchurch, where he met his
wife, Nona Wright, a nurse at
Bottle Lake Hospital.
Mrs Horn said he was “everything
a grandfather should have
been”.
“He had a lovely sense of humour
and was always so pleased
to see us,” she said.
His story can be found at
www.ngatapuwae.nz in the
Holding the Line section of the
Gallipoli Trail.

Health Tips
Protect yourself for up to 3 months from cold & flu
It’s coming into the time of year to be thinking about prevention of colds & flu.
Buccaline is an oral antibacterial prophylaxis for the prevention of secondary
bacterial infections associated with cold and flu. Buccaline provides active
immunisation against bacterial colds. Illnesses of the upper respiratory are
often caused by bacterial infections. Viral and influenza-like illnesses are
frequently made worse by an additional bacterial infections and take longer
to recover from. Immunology investigations show that Buccaline significantly
improves resistance to colds and flu. Protection becomes effective after taking
the last set of tablets. To maintain effectiveness as well as taking Buccaline
at the beginning of the cold season take it again in the middle of the cold
season. Tablets should be swallowed whole with some liquid one-hour before
breakfast or lunch.
Ask your pharmacist if
Buccaline is right for you.
Note: Buccaline is not
intended as an alternative
to influenza vaccination.
Pharmacist-Only medicine.

POIGNANT: A giant sculpture of Dr
Fenwick is on display as part of the The
Scale of Our War exhibition at Te Papa
(far left), and as a Lieutenant Colonel
outside his dugout in Anzac Cove.
The Gallipoli landing:
“We were frightfully
hampered by our kit –
overcoat, revolver, glasses,
map case, haversack, three
days rations, firewood, Red
Cross satchel, water bottle
– like elephants. It was a
certainty that we would
drown if we got stuck.
“After waiting, a steam
picket boat came along in
charge of a very fat rosy midshipman.
He took a string of
boats in tow and we were off.
Our boat grounded about 50
feet from the shore and we
all hopped out. Of course, I
fell into a hole up to my neck.
I could hardly struggle ashore
and when I did the first thing
I saw was Beck sitting on a
stone, roaring with laughter at
us. Bill Beck was the first New
Zealander of Godley’s force
to get on to Gallipoli.”
On treating the wounded:
“Several dead men were
lying on the beach . . . every
minute the numbers increased
and, as in addition
fresh troops came ashore
with mules and ammunition,
the chaos became
appalling . . . this state
of things lasted all day.
It seemed impossible for
men to live under the hail of
bullets. Capt Craig dressed
over 100 cases under fire.
One of his assistants had
his finger shot off while
helping him. Men were constantly
hit in our station and
their pluck and devotion in
continuing their work under
these galling conditions is
hopelessly above praise.
“At midnight I got four
big horse boats, which
held 12 stretchers on the
bottom and I packed in
less severe cases along
the sides, sitting, kneeling,
lying – anyhow, about 120
all told. I got these four off
at last at 1.30, and lay down
in the rain at the side of
the hill. I certainly was very
astonished that I was alive.
A more hellish Sunday one
could not conceive.”
“Total to date 5000 (approximately)
casualties,
about three men per yard of
ground gained.”
On burying the dead:
“The most ghastly day. This
morning I was ordered to act
as the [delineating] officer for
the burial of the dead
. . . raining heavily. I got a loan
of a dead or missing man’s
overcoat and was all right.
“We were met by some
Turkish officers who arrived
on horseback followed by
50 very fine looking Turks,
carrying Red Crescent and
white flags. One of the officers
was a German doctor.
We were introduced by our
interpreters and moved up
the hillside in two long lines.
Every 100 yards or so we
stationed a man with a white
flag, and opposite to him the
Turks posted one of their
men. We clambered through
dripping bushes, with beautiful
poppies and flowers.
“Coming over the crest of
the hill, I found the first New
Zealander, lying on his face.
Poor lad! A few yards climb
brought us on a plateau, and
a most awful sight was here.
The Turkish dead lay so thick
that it was almost impossible
to pass without treading
on the bodies. The awful
destructive power of high
explosive was very evident.
Huge holes surrounded by
circles of corpses, blown to
pieces. One shell had fallen
and set fire to a bush, as a
dead man lay charred to the
bone. Everywhere on looked
lay dead, swollen, black, hideous,
and overall a nauseating
stench that nearly made
one vomit.
“Behind us for at least
two miles, we could see
our burial parties working
furiously. In some cases the
dead actually formed part
of the trench wall. It was a
terrible sight to see arms and
legs sticking out of the sand,
underneath the sandbags . . .
I left, feeling deadly ill.
“I only saw about 10 of ours
but, at a very modest estimate,
I saw 2000 dead Turks.
The Turkish officers were
charming. The Germans
were rude and dictatorial
and accused us of digging
trenches. I lost my temper
(and my German) and told
him the corpses were so
decomposed they could
not be lifted and our men
were merely digging pits
to put the awful things into.
The Turkish medico was extremely
nice. We exchanged
cigarettes and I said to him I
hoped that after the war we
should smoke a cigarette.’’
“If this is war, I trust NZ
will never be fool enough to
forget that to avoid war one
most [must] be too strong to
invite war.”

Historic Bridal Path shelter
restoration completed
A HISTORIC shelter
honouring 19th-century
pioneering woman has
been restored.
The shelter at the top of
the Bridle Path was badly
damaged in the February
22, 2011, earthquake and
has been restored over the
last couple of months.
The shelter was built using
volcanic stone and is a
well-known landmark on
the Bridle Path – the route
used by the first settlers to
cross the Port Hills from
Lyttelton to the fledgling
settlement of Christchurch.
The shelter bears the inscription
They Passed This
Way and was built to commemorate
the courage and
hard work of the women
who were among the early
settlers.
City council heritage programme
manager Richie
Moyle said it is good to be
able to restore the shelter,
which works as a resting
spot for many making their
way along the Bridle Path.
“We’re thrilled that we’ve
been able to restore this
historic landmark and that
it can once again provides
a resting point for those
making the trip over the
Bridle Path,’’ Mr Moyle
said.
He said the restoration
was important for the history
of the area.
“It’s a wonderful spot
to sit and imagine what it
was like for the pioneers
who arrived here and to
reflect on how things have
changed,” he said.
However, there is still one
item in the historic shelter
awaiting restoration – a
memorial plaque depicting
the pioneer women and
their children arriving in
the district.
RESTORED:
The shelter
sits on the
Bridle Path
and gives
views over
Lyttelton
Harbour
and the
Canterbury
Plains.
The bronze plaque
carries the words: “On this
spot the pioneer women
of Canterbury and their
children rested after their
climb from the Port of
Lyttelton and gazed with
awe but courage upon
the hills and plains of
Canterbury where they
were to make their home.”
Mr Moyle said: “Sadly
the decorative middle
section of the plaque has
been stolen, but we are
having it re-cast and hope
to have it back in place
within a few months. It
will be the final piece in the
jigsaw.”

Annual Conference
Market Comment with Craig Prier
A house vs house market…
What does that actually mean? You might hear this comment more often as we move through
the year. Essentially it reflects a shift in the market.
Over the past few years there has been plenty of competition amongst buyers as they go
head to head to purchase properties in a buoyant market.
Don’t get me wrong, the market is still busy, with a significant number of properties available,
there is now genuine choice for buyers. What that means for a seller is there needs to be
careful consideration of your price and marketing strategy, as buyers can take their time, and
consider the many options available. This is where an experienced and knowledgeable real
estate professional can assist you in the sale of your property. Knowing the local market around
your property is essential when you need to get your property to stand out above the rest. Talk to
one of our team today to find out how they can help your property shine.
850 Ray White members joined together for the national
conference held in Auckland last week. The conference itself was
headlined by keynote speakers including Dr Libby Weaver, Willie
Apiata VC, and Steve Hansen.
The staff here enjoyed all the speakers, but came back absolutely
buzzing after hearing Willie Apiata VC - who enthralled the
audience with his captivating insights into his life when he was
part of the New Zealand Special Air Services in Afghanistan.
He spoke of his time overseas and the homecoming ceremony
held in his home town of Te Kaha. He went on to talk about the
donation of the Victoria Cross medal to the NZSAS Trust so the
medal would be protected for future generations.
We want to offer huge congratulations to Matt Clayton and
Paula Standeven who both received Premier Sales awards
for 2016, and Mark Gardner, Daisy Foldesi and Jan Edlin who
received Executive Sales awards for 2016. Well done team!

Time to sort out
winter maintenance
• By Gary Manch, navigational
safety officer, Lyttelton
HOPEFULLY, YOU all enjoyed
the Easter break and had an opportunity
to recharge.
As our boating season is coming
to a close – with the exception
of you hardy ones out there – it is
now a good time to think about
what maintenance you need to do
on your boat; be it a trailer-sailer,
yacht, powerboat or jet ski.
All vessels have different characteristics
and the maintenance
required will vary. I strongly
suggest that you follow the
manufacturer’s specifications for
service and repair, this way you
know things will be right.
It’s up to you whether you carry
out the work yourself, if you are
competent. If you’re more into
boating than the maintenance
side of things, get one of Canterbury’s
very capable boat shops to
do the service or repair work that
you may have been putting off
over the busy summer period.
For those of you who tie your
vessels up to moorings – make
sure you check the top rope for
wear or chafing.
This can be one of the causes
of the boat separating from the
mooring. This is a common issue
that can cause a lot of damage
to your own boat as well as
other boats if yours happens to be
adrift.
So remember, keep your
maintenance up to scratch and
save yourself a lot of pain and
heartache.
Be safe out there.
Help get rid of predators
Labour MP
Ruth Dyson
writes about
battling
pests and the
Predator Free
Port Hills
movement
The combination of autumn
temperatures, heavy rain and
the empty red zone land has
meant that many in the Port
Hills are being inundated by
possums and rats.
It’s not great to be woken during
the night by the hissing and
spitting (let alone the fighting)
of possums and the damage
they are doing to our fauna and
flora is horrific.
I have been contacted by a
number of people who need help
to battle these pests. So what
can we do?
At the end of last year, the
Summit Road Society launched
a vision of a predator free Port
Hills. It is a great aspiration. I
back this vision, but it needs
some help to make it a reality.
There are a few volunteer
co-ordinators in suburbs
around the Port Hills, but
they need to link in with other
people to complete the whole
picture. Perhaps you have spare
money and no time so you
might be prepared to donate a
trap? Or the reverse situation
– so you might like to do some
trap clearing and rebaiting.
Let’s see which suburb can do
best.
In spite of the predator-free
New Zealand commitment
from the Government, there
isn’t any local funding available
and this is a gap I would like to
see filled. Likewise, local groups
could work well with our park
rangers who do a massive job
and are always keen to work
with local volunteers to do even
more.
If more people joined in, we
could actually make this vision
a reality.
That would be so good on so
many levels and I know that
we would soon see much more
bird life in our suburbs. Is this
something you are interested in?
If so, I am happy to connect
people in our communities who
want to share the load and rid
our area of these pests. Let me
know.

Two codes for Sumner coach
• By Gordon Findlater
SUMNER RUGBY coach Martin
Field-Dodgson will put a new
spin on code-hopping when
he starts in a role at Mainland
Football later this month.
Field-Dodgson, 39, has a strong
background in rugby, which
includes a number of roles in
development and coaching at the
top level in Europe. He will soon
transfer those skills to football
when he starts as the community
football manager for Mainland
Football.
He will still play a big part in
rugby, in his first season coaching
the Sumner division one side.
“Some people have said you’re
going to join the enemy but in
the modern day and age the real
enemy is doing nothing and
computer games,” said Field-
Dodgson. “The real driver for me
is that kids are doing something,
that’s the main thing.”
In terms of football this will be
his first true role in the sport.
“I had a run around for the
Cashmere Wanderer’s (now
Cashmere Technical) as an eight
or nine-year-old, that’s the extent
of my football prowess,” said
Field-Dodgson.
Although he may not hold an
extensive background in football,
Mainland Football chief executive
Julian Bowden believes the
organisation is getting someone
with a huge skill set.
“His varied background
shows a great knowledge of club
systems and structures so he was
a standout for us,” said Bowden.
“The fact he’s actually come
from another code I find quite
exciting because I think there is a
whole lot we can learn from each
other.”
A connection between Mainland
Football and Sumner Rugby
Club isn’t something new.
Bowden spent two seasons
playing for the top Sumner side
in the late 90s. Former All White
Ben Sigmund also played on the
wing for Sumner during a break
from football.
Field-Dodgson returned to
SPORTS
JUGGLER: Martin
Field-Dodgson will work
in two codes this winter as
Mainland Football’s new
community manager and as
Sumner rugby coach.

Canterbury last year after 10
years in Italy working in various
roles including academy manager
and assistant coach at Pro12
team Benetton Treviso. Pro12 is
a European competition, contested
by the top Italian, Irish, Welsh
and Scottish teams. In previous
years, All Blacks such as John
Kirwan and Craig Green have
played for the club.
“It was an incredible experience
in terms of learning,” said
Field-Dodgson.
He has held a number of development
roles before his time
in Italy. After finishing physical
education studies at University
of Otago he spent a number of
years working with the Queensland
Rugby
Union.
Field-Dodgson begins the new
role on April 26.

Sumner will be warmed
up for University clash
• By Gordon Findlater
SUMNER WILL celebrate their
first home game of the season
by running to St Leonards
Square just before kick-off.
The team will warm-up near
Van Asch Deaf Education
Centre before running to their
home ground ahead of their
clash against University on
Saturday at 2.45pm.
“The first home game is
always a special one for the
community and the club. We’re
hoping to get a big crowd down
there, especially if it’s good
weather,” said Sumner captain
Lawrence Babe.
They will hope to get their
first win of the season at St
Leonards after being dealt a
difficult trio of fixtures to start
the year.
Sumner began the season
with three away losses
to Christchurch (14-20),
Sydenham (15-39) and Lincoln
University (9-29).
The upcoming home match
against University won’t be
any easier. The visitors have
won their last two matches and
defeated Sumner 28-38 in the
pre-season.
Meanwhile, Sumner’s match
against Lincoln University was
set to be played on Saturday.
However, both teams agreed to
BATTLE: Sumner will play University in their first home game of the season at St Leonards on
Saturday. Sumner’s looking for redemption after going down to University in 28-38 in the
pre-season.

for the win.
It wasn’t all rest over the long
weekend for Sumner.
“We had a training at Taylors

Head and did some intervals
on the zig-zag there to keep the
fitness levels ticking over,” said
Babe.

Perfect
by Cecelia Ahern
The thrilling, shocking and romantic sequel to the
bestselling YA debut FLAWED is finally here. When
we embrace all our flaws, that’s when we can finally
become PERFECT…
Celestine North lives in a society that demands perfection.
After she was branded Flawed by a morality court,
Celestine’s life has completely fractured – all her freedoms gone.
Since Judge Crevan has declared her the number one threat to the public,
she has been a ghost, on the run with the complicated, powerfully
attractive Carrick, the only person she can trust. But Celestine has a secret
– one that could bring the entire Flawed system crumbling to the ground.
Judge Crevan is gaining the upper hand, and time is running out for
Celestine. With tensions building, Celestine must make a choice: save
only herself, or risk her life to save all the Flawed. And, most important of
all, can she prove that to be human in itself is to be Flawed…?
SPORTS
Bays net three
against University
FERRYMEAD BAYS have secured
their biggest win of the season with
a 3-1 victory over Universities on
Monday.
Bays were set to begin the long
weekend with an away trip to Nelson
Suburbs on Good Friday. However,
heavy rain caused the match to be
postponed. The extra rest clearly
worked in their favour come Monday.
Stu Kelly opened the scoring late
in the first half to give Bays a 1-0
advantage at half-time. Universities’
Rodrigo Balcazar levelled the score
in the 65th minute before Nikolai
Molijn scored against his former
teammates to put Bays back in front.
The match was wrapped up five
minutes before the final whistle
when current golden boot-holder
Andy Tuckey scored.
After six rounds of the Mainland
Premier League, Bays are in third
place on 12 points, three behind
competition leaders Coastal Spirit.
However, they have a game in hand
due to the postponed match.
Bays play bottom-of-the-table
Western at English Park on Saturday.

against Dr Cage. But a murder charge may be the least of Tom’s worries.
The Double Eagle group, a savage splinter cell of the KKK, will stop at
nothing to ensure that Tom either takes the fall for their past deeds, or
takes his secrets to an early grave.Unable to trust anyone – not even his
own mother – Penn battles to discover the secret history of both the Cage
family and the South itself, risking the only thing he has left to gamble:
his life.

Driven
Sharp price for Subaru Impreza
• By Ross Kiddie
THIRTEEN YEARS ago I guided
an acquaintance into a new car, it
was a Subaru Impreza and it was
a car which was priced at $25,000
with four-wheel-drive and 2-litre
engine.
My friend still has that car and
it has now travelled fault-free over
200,000km, scheduled maintenance
has been the only service
cost.
I remember writing at the time
how much of a bargain that car
was, and if finances at the time
had allowed, I may well have purchased
an Impreza as well.
Well, nothing has changed, I
still can’t afford a new car and
now Subaru has another new Impreza
available at a budget price.
For just $5000 more than the new
price in 2004, the new-generation
model represents amazing value,
and it is stacked with value features,
items which you wouldn’t
ordinarily expect in a budget car.
The new generation model gets
Eye-sight driver assist technology,
a camera-based system which is
linked to adaptive cruise control,
lane departure warning, precollision
assist and pedestrian
avoidance. Other features for
comfort and convenience include
automatic stop-start as a fuel
saving measure, keyless entry and
SUBARU IMPREZA: Stacked with value features.
ignition, Apple Car Play and Android
Auto capability, along with
the usual features modern cars
include as a matter of course.
The new Impreza still has
the traditional 2-litre, flat-four
(boxer) engine. It has been
developed to a point where it is
state-of-the-art in terms of power
outputs, emission control and
fuel efficiency. In terms of figures,
the quad-camshaft unit is rated
at 115kW and 196Nm, while a
6.6-litre per 100km/h (42mpg)
combined cycle fuel usage average
is claimed by Subaru.
That works well with the
8l/100km (35mpg) figure showing
on the comprehensive trip
computer, along with a 5l/100km
(56mpg) instantaneous figure
cruising the 100km/h legal limit
(engine speed 1600rpm).
Drive is channelled to all four
wheels through a continuously
variable automatic transmission.
Not only does the four-wheeldrive
system alleviate the fear of
grip loss on loose surfaces, there
is a lot of natural grip supplied on
the seal, the Impreza has handling
ability which is unrealistic for this
class of car.
In the first instance, grip is supplied
by 205/50 x 17in Bridgestone
Turanaza tyres, and even
though they aren’t Bridgestone’s
sport specification rubber, the
• Price – Subaru Impreza,
$29,990

• Configuration – Fourcylinder,

continuously variable
automatic.
• Performance –
0-100km/h, 9.3sec
• Fuel usage – 6.6l/100km
tyres have prodigious grip. If you
add in a flat and controlled body
balance and drive channelled
constantly through to all wheels,
the handling balance is biased
towards sporty.
That comes without the springs
and dampers being overly firmed,
ride quality is still paramount to
the Subaru way of manufacture.
I took the test car on a loop that
took in both sealed and unsealed
surfaces and I’m pleased to report
that for what would be deemed
an everyday family sedan, the Impreza
imparts a sporty handling
sensation.
Power is directed freely
through the transmission. In this
form the Impreza doesn’t get the
turbocharging system of its WRX
stablemates, but it is an honest,
punchy engine. I’ve written many
times how much natural torque
horizontally-opposed engines develop,
and the Impreza’s naturally-aspirated
unit is a honey.
In my introduction I mentioned
the high level of specification.
Another useful feature
are the steering wheel-mounted
paddles which the driver can use
to initiate ratio changes within
the CVT system. There’s also a
sequential system at the main
gearshift lever itself, but as a
driver you can be lured into a
sporty sensation if you utilise the
paddles.
However, first and foremost,
the Impreza caters for the family
unit. While sedans are fast losing
popularity, I’m still a bit of a
fan and I’m quite smitten with
Subaru product; together I’d be
sold on the Impreza in this form.
Subaru’s line-up isn’t extensive,
but the company is far more
than a global niche market
player. All of the models
offered here are functional and
practical, each designed for a different
role. The Impreza is there
to tempt as an entry-level car into
the brand.
You’d had better be quick,
though, from what I’ve heard
through industry sources the
Impreza in this form is only available
in limited numbers and is
selling fast.
