Call for 

better 

toilets in 

Redcliffs 

• By Sarla Donovan 

THERE ARE no prizes for 

guessing what name residents 

of Edith Cavell Lifecare in 

Sumner have given this cat – 

Mandu. 

That’s because the man 

holding it in the photo above 

is one of New Zealand’s best 

known mountaineers. Mandu’s 

name refers to Kathmandu, the 

capital of Nepal. 

Ninety-year-old Ed Cotter 

was part of the first New 

Zealand expedition to the 

Himalayas in 1951, along with 

George Lowe, Earle Riddiford 

and Ed Hillary. 

The inset photo above shows 

him in his climbing days. His 

adventures were recounted 

in the 2016 book, Only Two 

for Everest, written by Lyn 

McKinnon. 

Mr Cotter has made friends 

with the handsome tomcat who 

seems to have a penchant for 

pensioners. 

Mandu has been visiting 

residents for the past six weeks 

and Mr Cotter is one of his 

favourites. Another is Denise 

Brown, who lives in a town 

house at the retirement village. 

The ginger fur-ball pops in to 

see her and her cat Penta. 

“Cute as a bug’s ear” is how 

she describes him. Edith 

Cavell Lifecare manager Mary 

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER 

Mandu’s mountaineering mate 

van der Veldt said there was 

already a house cat in the rest 

home, which was probably 

enough. 

She wasn’t keen on adopting 

and feeding any old cat, but 

didn’t mind if Mandu visited. 

However, Mrs Brown wants 

to make sure he has a home.

Mandu belongs to? Get in

THE LACK of public toilets in Redcliffs 

village is in the spotlight. 

The Linwood-Coastal-Burwood 

Community Board has asked city 

council staff to investigate after concerns 

from businesses about the public 

using their facilities. 

Redcliffs New World checkout supervisor 

Angela Tucker said people come 

in “all the time” asking to use the toilet. 

She said while it wasn’t a problem, 

having a public loo would be a “definite 

benefit” for the village. 

BP Redcliffs manager Robert Jieng 

said people came in “very often”. He 

said it was a bit annoying and would 

“absolutely” like to see the city council 

providing public facilities. Redcliffs 

Pharmacy assistant Holly Stirling 

said on the odd occasion when people 

asked, she referred them to the library. 

Redcliffs Residents’ Association 

raised the issue with the board on 

Monday. The association said a basic 

toilet attached to the changing sheds at 

the sports field in Barnett Park is too 

far away from the village centre. 

The original toilet block in the park 

close to Main Rd was damaged in the 

February 22, 2011, earthquake.

FROM 

THE 

EDITOR’S 

DESK 

Inside 

News....................................3-10 

YOU’VE GOT to sympathise 

with Redcliffs businesses over the 

lack of public toilets in the area 

(see page 1). 

People responding to the call of 

nature are heading to businesses, 

particularly the supermarket and 

service station, because the public 

toilets at Barnett Park were 

put out of action by the quake. 

The local community board 

is seeking a report from the city 

council, and no doubt it will go 

out for public consultation. So 

there’s likely to be a lot of holding 

on. 

Speaking of drawn out sagas, 

no fix yet for those uneven tiles 

in Akaroa that caused Sue Stewart 

to fall (see page 5). 

Bay Harbour News won’t let 

this one go and we have local 

councillor and Deputy Mayor 

Andrew Turner in our sights to 

sort it. Time to step up Andrew.

Taylors Mistake loos 


THE TAYLORS Mistake toilets 

have been nominated as the 

country’s nicest loos in the Keep 

New Zealand Beautiful awards. 

Linwood Ward city councillor 

Yani Johanson suggested 

the city council enter the 

competition. 

The block is scenically 

positioned at the bottom of a 

valley behind Taylors Mistake 

beach, near the start of the 

Godley Head walkway. 

Installed in 2006, it replaced 

the old toilet block which 

consisted of a “pretty ugly” tin 

shed with a septic tank. 

It features two painted glass 

artworks by Christchurch artist 

Richard Wiki, outdoor showers 

and benches, spacious changing 

sheds, separate loos for men 

and women and a drinking 

fountain. 

Nikau trees and flax bushes 

surround the building. 

In its application, the city 

council noted that there has 

been almost no vandalism at 

the site. 

“Make no mistake, since it 

has been built, it has been a 

beautiful addition to what is a 

beautiful place renowned for 

surfing, sunbathing and 

selfies.” 

Linwood-Central-Heathcote 

Community Board deputy 

chairman Jake McLellan 

was cagey on the chances of 

winning. 


ON THE DOMAIN LINCOLN 3 MARCH 2018 

vie for loveliest in the land title 

SURF ART: This mural by Richard Wiki is a feature of the Taylors Mistake toilet block, which is 

up for a Keep New Zealand Beautiful award. 

“I couldn’t possibly say, but 

I’m hopeful. I’m not sure how 

many nominations they get, but 

there’s a lot of toilets out there 

– it could be quite a competitive 

field.” 

The toilet award category is 

one of 17 offered by the Keep 

New Zealand Beautiful trust. 

They include the best street, 

most beautiful suburb and most 

innovative packaging. 

Nominations will be judged 

by a panel, with the winners 

announced at a gala dinner in 

Hastings on October 13.

Lyttelton to 

go off-grid 

LYTTELTON, Cass Bay and 

Corsair Bay will be powered by 

two massive generators next 

week, as lines company Orion 

performs upgrade work in the 

township. 

From 8.30am to 4.30pm next 

Wednesday, September 13, two 

container-sized generators will 

supply the town’s power. 

The upgrade should mean fewer 

outages. 

Lyttelton’s power supply comes 

from the Heathcote zone substation 

and is fed on two overhead 

lines but only one set of poles 

traversing the Port Hills. 

If there is a fault on one line, 

power frequently has to be cut to 

both to complete repairs. 

That’s because the lines are 

placed too closely together and 

pose a health and safety risk to 

repair crews. 

Said Orion chief executive, Rob 

Jamieson: “The people of Lyttelton 

have had to put up with more 

than their fair share of power cuts 

in the past, and this project will 

mean fewer outages, and we’ll 

be able to get the power back on 

more quickly if needs be.” 

Orion is also bringing in additional, 

back-up generators to 

ensure consistent power for the 

town’s central business area. 

Initiative aims to cut plastic bag use 

A GROUP dedicated to the 

demise of plastic packaging 

has launched its latest 

initiative in Lyttelton. 

Bags made out of donated 

pillowcases will be available 

to borrow by people who have 

forgotten their reusable bags. 

Plastic Shopping Bag Free 

Lyttelton want to see an 

end to plastic bag use in the 

township, as well as single use 

plastic further down the line. 

“Plastic is killing our ocean 

life, as well as being a problem 

on land,” said spokeswoman 

Juliet Neill. 

“Our group has been going 

for over two years, and we 

have taken a number of initiatives, 

including making cloth 

bags for our local vegetable 

co-op users and hundreds 

of bags which have been 

purchased at cost by people in 

Lyttelton and beyond.” 

The new borrowable bags 

have been sewn and decorated 

by Ms Neill and fellow group 

member Sue-Ellen Sandilands 

and will be housed in specially 

decorated box outside the 

Harbour Co-op wholefood 

store.

Call for better toilets in Redcliffs 

•From page 1 

“We have had a complaint 

from one of the business owners 

that many people who are not 

necessarily customers are requesting 

to use their toilets,” association 

secretary Pat McIntosh 

said in a letter to the community 

board. 

The Coastal Pathway Group 

has also expressed concerns 

about long stretches of 

pathway without easy access to 

facilities. 

Group chairman Scott 

Babington said they were 

working with the city council on 

putting toilets into Moncks Bay, 

“ideally across the road from the 

beach area by the pumping shed. 

A crossing point would be 

needed, as on heavy traffic days 

the road can be “almost impossible” 

to pass. 

He said while they’d like to 

put facilities on the bay side of 

the road, that was likely to incur 

strong objections from locals. 

Work on the next section of 

the coastal pathway, from Shag 

Rock bend to the bottom of 

Clifton Hill, will start in February. 

Community board member 

Darrell Latham said the community 

board and city council 

needed to step up and ensure 

facilities are provided at strategic 

locations.

Footpath tiles still not repaired 


THE CITY council promised 

to repair two dangerous spots 

on Akaroa’s Beach Rd – three 

months down the track, the job is 

still not finished. 

Pensioner Sue Stewart, 67, 

grazed her face after tripping over 

the uneven footpath tiles in May. 

When she 

spray-painted 

the tiles to make 

others aware 

of the problem, 

Banks Peninsula 

city councillor 

and Deputy 

Andrew 

Turner 

Mayor Andrew 

Turner visited 

the site and assured 

Ms Stewart the city council 

was taking the matter “very seriously.” 

The problem pavers would be 

fixed by the end of June, he told 

Ms Stewart. 

Now into the first week of 

September, the unsafe pavers 

have been removed but still not 

replaced. 

Ms Stewart said it wasn’t good 

enough from Cr Turner. 

“He assured me that it would 

be done by the end of June. Okay, 

we’ve had some bad weather but 

. . . he’s over-extended, he’s got 

too much on his plate. He’s a nice 

guy but he’s wishy-washy – a bit 

gutless.” 

But Cr Turner told Bay Harbour 

News last week it wasn’t a 

simple matter of just replacing 

the pavers. 

City council arborists had 

decided the best solution to maintain 

tree health and provide a safe 

surface around the trees was a 

gravel, resin-based material. 

A specialist contractor is needed 

to lay the material, but they’ve 

been unable to do the work due to 

a backlog. 

Cr Turner said it would be another 

week before the contractor 

would get under way. 

It was taking an “extraordinary” 

length of time to fix the 

problem, Cr Turner agreed. 

He said he wasn’t aware of the 

technical aspects involved in 

replacing the pavers when he met 

with Ms Stewart in June. 

INJURED: When Ms Stewart 

tripped on an uneven tile she 

fell and grazed her face.

Home-made speed signs asking

were dropped to 50km/h. However, 

NZTA said they weren’t legal and 

would have to come down when the 

new 60km/h speed limit came into 

effect on August 25. Spokeswoman 

for the group, Sharon McIver, said 

they had removed them in the 

meantime, but were on the lookout 

for a different place to put them.

Playground lacks funds 

Enter

Now! 

DELAY: Plans for new play equipment at Governors Bay 

Reserve have been delayed due to a lack of money. 


A LACK of money is being 

blamed for delays in getting 

new playground equipment and 

recreation facilities at Governors 

Bay Reserve. 

The city council budgeted 

$170,000 for the renewal of 

the junior playground space, 

landscape work around the 

new community hall and pool, 

development of a skate facility, 

dirt pump track, nature play and 

tree hut. 

Consultation on the proposed 

facilities closed in May but 

the city council now say they 

don’t have enough money for 

everything. 

That’s because public feedback 

indicated the junior playground 

design needed changing to 

include more equipment. 

This has had a knock-on 

effect resulting in insufficient 

funds for the skate bowl and 

half-pipe, bike track and tree 

house. 

Now, the community is being 

asked to rank which of those 

three facilities they prefer. 

Governors Bay Community 

Association Chairwoman Karen 

Banwell said she would be 

concerned if the skate bowl/halfpipe 

was given a low priority. 

“That skate area has been 

agreed to for a very long time. If 

we find that it isn’t going ahead, 

we might have to take some 

action,” she said. 

She would have preferred work 

to have already started and they 

were ready to plant now, rather

HISTORIC: A human femur like this was found during road 

excavation work at the bottom of Clifton Hill. 

Road works unearth 

human bones 

A MAORI midden (refuse 

heap) containing human and 

animal bones dating back to the 

pre-1500s has been uncovered 

during trenching work on 

Sumner’s Main Rd. 

The Peacock’s Gallop project 

involves installation of new water 

main and wastewater pipes, 

road resurfacing and a permanent 

crash barrier at Rapanui/ 

Shag Rock corner. 

Before work started in mid- 

July, the site, which is near 

caves, was identified as an area 

of cultural and archaeological 

significance and all contractors 

underwent an archaeological 

induction. 

A contractor doing trenching 

work outside the Sumner Surf 

Club discovered the midden on 

August 22. 

This triggered the 

Koiwi/human discovery 

protocol and work stopped 

immediately while an on-site 

archaeologist and cultural 

monitor advised on the process. 

Following the Koiwi protocol, 

Ngāi Tūāhuriri were alerted to 

the find, along with Heritage 

New Zealand and police. 

Photos were taken of the 

bones before they were removed 

and an off-site archaeologist carried 

out a visual assessment of 

the remains. 

Remains from part of a human 

leg bone (femur) were 

discovered along with other 

animal bones including kuri 

(polynesian dog), ling (fish) as 

well as moa. The presence of 

moa fragments meant the bones 

were estimated to date from 

before the year 1500. 

John Moore, the city council’s 

three waters and waste planning 

delivery manager, said the find 

was important. 

“We have taken every step 

possible to ensure the bones are 

properly protected and treated 

in a culturally appropriate way.” 

Monitoring will continue.

Have you always lived in 

Lyttelton? 

Almost. I Lived in Lyttelton 

St, Spreydon, from birth to three 

months. Then my great grandmother 

died and we shifted 

over the hill to Lyttelton to look 

after my great grandfather. Dad 

worked on the harbour board 

and mum was at home looking 

after us four kids. One brother is 

still here and I’ve got a sister in 

Ashburton. 

When did you start working 

at Lyttelton Main School? 

I started in 1985 as a relieving 

secretary. I was parent helper in 

the classroom when my youngest 

child started the year before that. 

And I was made permanent in 

1986. 

What did your job involve 

then? 

Everything – anything the 

children need, looking after sick 

kids, the cash coming in, prep for

Brendan Wright. 

teachers, banking, lunch orders. 

Never had two days the same. 

We had some amazing fundraising 

ventures at that stage. Our 

principal at the time, Bryon 

Porteous, got permission to reproduce 

an 1886 John Gibb print 

and several others which we sold 

as a fundraiser for the school. 

It bought lots of extra things – 

music keyboards, some extra 

reading recovery time. Then we 

got together with rotary and 

held classic car racing around 

the streets and down onto the 

waterfront. I think we had two or 

three of those. We bought an old 

education board bus, which we 

used to ferry kids, who’d never 

even been through the tunnel at 

that stage, into town for different 

events. We bought tents and 

yachts and canoes with the funds 

raised. We built a garage for the 

bus. I got involved in all those 

sorts of things. Lots of work but 

lots of fun. 

I’m trying to picture a pack of 

classic cars racing around the 

streets of Lyttelton. 

It was just amazing. The 

cars went down the road from 

Norwich Quay to the waterfront 

at the base of No 7 wharf (that 

road runs over the top of the rail 

tunnel.) Then along the waterfront, 

up and over the overhead 

bridge, up Oxford St, left into 

London St, left down Canterbury 

St and along Norwich Quay, 

before heading back down onto 

the waterfront. It was a lot of 

work because we had to get all 

the safety gear, there were straw 

bales everywhere, and big crowds 

of people. You’d never get that 

now, with the health and safety 

regulations. 

There must be a few other 

things that have changed over 

the past 32 years? 

Technology. When I first 

started we were using Bandas, 

with methylated spirits printed 

onto newsprint. And Gesteners – 

we had an old manual one which 

used to get black ink under your 

fingernails. If you made a mistake 

you had to paint nail polish 

over it. I remember the fight to 

get our first photocopier.

Fire rages, homes at risk 

The school committee chair 

thought it would make lazy 

teachers – it was incredible. We 

raised the funds and managed 

to get one, it was a very basic 

little machine, used to be in my 

office and we just gradually went 

from there. I remember getting 

my first electric type writer, I 

thought it was Christmas. It’s all 

computers now, which makes 

the job a lot easier, everything‘s 

linked. The kids seem to come in 

more competent now too. They 

used to be quite timid. Maybe 

because of better early childhood 

education, they seem a lot more 

prepared for school. 

What qualities have you developed 

over the years? 

Just being adaptable probably 

– no two days are ever alike, you 

take what’s thrown at you. I’ve 

grown with the job, I didn’t have 

any computer skills at all, they 

weren’t part of my life, but I’ve 

got a lot more confident. I think 

my colleagues would describe me 

as reliable. I try to treat others as 

I like to be treated. 

Are there any days that stand 

out for you? 

February 22, 2011. That would 

be the worst day of my whole 

time at school. I was talking to 

my mum on the phone at the 

time – something made me ring 

– next thing all hell broke loose. 

You felt like you were climbing 

out of your office, there were files 

all over the place. Everyone was 

in a state of disbelief and shock. 

The principal, John Thawley, was 

amazing. He must have been 

stressed out himself and the 

teachers, to see them out in the 

middle of the playground, away 

from all the danger spots with 

a guitar and singing, just trying 

to keep the children going. I 

really took my hat off to them at 

that stage; I was a bit worse for 

wear. It was horrible. You didn’t 

know what we were going home 

to – we could see dust coming up 

the hill from a place down the 

road where the bricks had gone. 

You could see the church, Holy 

Trinity, had gone. It was just 

horrible, everywhere we went. 

Tell me about your children; 

they’ve come through the 

school as well? 

My nana was a pupil, then 

mum, me and three siblings, 

my husband, my two children 

Jennifer and Brendon, and my 

granddaughter, Miranda, is here 

now in year 7. Hopefully my 

grandson, Joseph, will come here 

– he’s only three. My husband, 

Ken, was at school with me, he 

always seemed to be behind 

me in photographs. His father

went there and before that his 

grandfather at the Lyttelton 

Borough School – they’re an old 

Lyttelton family. We got married 

in 1973. He made a fateful phone 

call, asked me out on a date, we 

went to the movies I think. I’d 

known him for years, used to 

tease him when he was at school. 

We’re still married, still love him 

to bits. 

And you’re retiring now, what 

are your plans? 

I just want to enjoy time with 

Ken – he retired a year ago. He 

was initially a spraypainter and 

then worked for Bunnings the 

last seven years. When he was 

working, we only had Sunday’s 

so it’ll be nice to be able to 

enjoy things together. I love my 

garden, two chickens, my cats. 

We hope to do a bit of travelling 

around New Zealand. Just to be 

able to choose to do things when 

we want to. We’re going to go 

away the first week of term 4, just 

to break away from that routine 

of ‘now the holidays are over we 

have to go back to work’. 

What will you miss about the 

school? 

The whole buzz of the place 

– everyone that’s here, the 

interactions and routines, being 

in amongst it all. You move on, a 

new page opens, another closes 

– it’s a big decision retiring. I had 

to re-evaluate my life when I lost 

my younger brother last year. 

Sometimes events make you stop 

and reflect on making the most 

of what we’ve got. I’ve just turned 

65. I can’t believe that much time 

has gone by. 

What makes Lyttelton school 

a special place? 

It feels like a family – you leave 

your own in the morning and 

come to your work family. It’s 

small enough to know everyone. 

I feel like we’re forming our own 

traditions now (since the merger) 

but it’ll take a while to bed in. It’s 

like a blended family. I’ve loved 

everything I’ve done.

Akaroa Volunteer Fire Brigade’s newest recruit is Tommi Hopkins, seen here with his father

the idea has so far fallen on 

deaf ears. 

You said: 

Dorothy Colley – I thought 

I would share with you our experience 

of the Zahar beach step 

organ. 

What a highlight this was . . . 

we visited it twice in our short 

stay there. Just before we left for 

our Croatia experience we saw 

a documentary on this very 

organ. 

I was a little sceptical but once 

I saw and heard it was entranced. 

We visited it on both tides and 

found it to be both relaxing and 

mystifying. It’s amazing how the 

music flows from within the concrete 

steps. People were sitting 

there relaxing and many were 

bathing their feet (of course the 

water was a little warmer than 

Sumner).

Don’t let’s ignore it completely, 

Sumner is such a beautiful place, 

there’s not many places in the 

world where you can you sit on 

the beach and enjoy the amazing 

views we have there with the 

snow-covered mountains in all 

their glory and the sweep of the 

coast – true beauty.

it could work.

Opponents of mountain 

bike trails in Urumau

people to “vote no” 

to a proposed new

You said: 

Craig Minehan – Re: The 

“vote no” campaign, I don’t 

think it’s misleading. 

The Lyttelton reserves 

management committee has 

been heavily stacked with 

mountain bikers, very vocal in 

support of more trails; a lot of 

people in Lyttelton don’t want 

more trails, but the noise from 

the pro side has been making it 

seem otherwise. 

It should be pointed out that 

people such as Mr Hollister 

have a vested interest . . . he sells 

mountain bikes. 

I live below the reserve 

and don’t want to see it 

developed further; there are 

many tracks already and there 

will be issues with erosion and 

water run-off.

Vicki Jerome – We’re not 

Little River residents, we live

above Barry’s Bay, but we definitely 

think the sign should be

It’s ridiculous and frustrating 

that NZTA won’t allow the 

speed limit to be reduced to 

50km/h. 

Its reasoning, I believe, is that 

only one side of the main road 

is built-up residentially, but all 

David Scarlett and his NZTA 

staff need to do is to park up 

near either end of the township 

centre, just beyond the garage on 

the Christchurch side or just beyond 

the cafe next to the silos on 

the Akaroa side, and observe the 

activity for an hour or two – and 

this is on most days, although, 

of course, even busier at the 

weekend. 

What is happening is that 

vehicles coming from the 

Akaroa side often stop along the 

roadside, and then the occupants 

cross over to the many 

businesses on the other side of 

the road, rather than turning 

across oncoming traffic into the 

small parking area there. 

There is, after all, a shop, two 

cafes, an art gallery, a vet clinic, 

the Craft Station, a petrol station 

which one would not want to 

drive into and block the pumps 

if just buying an ice cream or pie, 

as well as the interesting walks 

around the old railway station 

and little garden. 

Perhaps NZTA staff also 

haven’t noticed that across the 

road from all this activity is 

the service centre and library, 

including postal services, 

sometimes used by staff from 

the businesses or neighbouring 

residents, as well as passers-by 

coming from Christchurch. 

When driving through Little 

River, which we do on at least 

one day a week, we always 

see cars, motor-cycles, even 

campervans and trucks, parked 

on both sides of the road with 

pedestrians crossing the road 

in both directions, often with 

children and vehicles pulling in 

and out, sometimes requiring 

through-traffic to brake quickly 

if travelling at even 60km/h, 

which we already do not exceed. 

Return the sign.

Facilities important 

to community 

Green MP 

Eugenie Sage 

writes about 

two new 

community 

centres 

recently 

opened in the 

Bay Harbour 

area 

It was wonderful to 

attend the opening of 

Sumner’s new community 

centre Matuku Takotako 

recently. 

Student performances 

from local Sumner schools 

and the pre-school brought 

life and vitality into the 

new building. 

That so many students 

were comfortable speaking 

and singing in Te Reo 

Maori during their performances 

was something to 

be proud. It shows a real 

commitment to biculturalism 

by teachers, students 

and their families. 

Diamond Harbour 

recently celebrated the 

post-quake refurbishment 

and re-opening of its community 

hall. A simple hall 

with a stage, backstage 

room and kitchen, it hosts 

everything from 

weekend ballet 

classes to yoga, 

community quiz 

nights, film nights 

and dance classes. 

It’s great to have it 

functioning again. 

Buildings such 

as Matuku Takotako – the 

Sumner Centre and the 

Diamond Harbour Hall, 

local playgrounds, parks, 

sports fields, and libraries 

all help build community 

by providing spaces where 

it is easy for people to meet 

and connect, formally and 

informally. They are open 

to everyone, not just those 

who can afford to pay. 

That’s one reason the 

hard work by residents, 

community organisations 

and the city council on 

the post-quake repair and 

rebuilding of these community 

facilities, libraries 

and halls has been one of 

the most important parts 

of the city’s recovery. 

A liveable, accessible city 

has a sense of identity and 

strong connected communities. 

Local facilities are 

more likely to build a sense 

of connection than a grandiose 

convention centre, or 

an even larger stadium in 

the central city. 

In Europe, the village 

model – with a town 

square, marketplace for 

fresh food, shops, community 

facilities, and 

homes within walking 

distance has led to thriving 

communities with a strong 

sense of identity. 

We want urban planning 

and Government and 

city council spending in 

Christchurch which will 

create a city where communities 

thrive. 

To do that we need more 

green spaces, a better bus 

system, more cycleways 

and urban planning which 

recognises the challenges 

of a changing climate- rising 

seas and intense storm 

events.

Giveaways with safety in mind 

Drinking sensibly is 

important when on the 

water, as conditions can 

quickly change writes 

Jim Dilley, regional 

harbourmaster 

I just saw a photo of Gary 

Manch and his mates on 

holiday, relaxing by the pool in 

the warm sun, drinking what 

looks like a nice, cold beer. 

Apart from the fact that he 

was in his Speedos, it was a 

great photo showing what a 

good time can be had socialising 

with friends and a drink. 

I’ve done my fair share of 

socialising both when working 

at sea and when off sailing on 

the yacht. There has also been 

the odd occasion when I have 

had a few too many, talked 

a load of garbage and fallen 

asleep. Boating, fishing and 

hanging out at the beach gives 

us a great chance to socialise. 

Making sure we do it sensibly 

is the key. 

I have got it wrong a few 

times and am now a bit more 

cautious. Weather changes, 

having to go and help another 

person in trouble, breakdowns 

or just bad luck mean we do 

need to be able to respond 

appropriately and after a few 

drinks that ability is hindered. 

Cabin Boy’s Corner 

It’s best to save the beers for 

the end of the day when safely 

ashore. 

Gary conveniently arranged 

for 80 large boxes to turn up 

at my office on Tuesday in his 

absence, and we had to unload 

them by hand. Nice timing, 

Gary. 

Every year, Environment 

Canterbury produces a series 

of giveaways for boaties that 

help remind everyone about 

staying safe on the water. 

This year we have waterproof 

cellphone cases, floating 

key rings (in the shape of a life 

jacket,) sunglass straps and 

magnetised notepads for the 

fridge. If you see our navigation 

safety staff Gary, Tim or 

Stu around this summer be 

sure to say “hi” and grab some 

gear. 

The giveaways are designed 

to remind boaties about our 

key messages, but we want 

them to be useful items. If you 

have any ideas on giveaways 

we may be able to produce, 

that are useful, and get our 

messages on then, please let us 

know. 

We had a call one recent 

Saturday, saying there was a 

rundown yacht slowly sinking 

on its mooring in the Cass/ 

Corsair Bay area. 

The message read: “Easy to 

spot, it’s the grotty looking 

one down by the bow.” Upon 

having a look, we could see at 

least six boats that fitted that 

description. We normally get a 

few boats each year that get in 

such a poor condition that the 

owner abandons them. 

In some cases, we are able to 

locate the owner and get them 

to sort the vessel, in others we 

end up removing the vessel 

ourselves. 

If you see something out of 

the ordinary give us a call and 

we will try to sort it out. We 

can’t fix everything but we will 

give it go and let you know 

what happens. 

Have a great couple of 

weeks. Spring has been seen a 

couple of times so hopefully 

you have all the work done on 

the boat ready for a good summer 

on the water. 

Dictionaries popular 

Ferrymead Rotary has been 

supply pupils at Te Waka 

Unua School with printed 

dictionaries, writes Barbara 

Crooks 

If you’re one of those who thinks 

printed dictionaries aren’t cool any 

more, you need to talk to the year 4 

children at Te Waka Unua School. 

They love them. And they use 

them to build many skills, says 

teacher, Bebe Wards. They are used 

as class sets and take-home books. 

The children are excited when 

asked to find a word, she says, and 

like the games around looking up 

words and their meanings, especially 

finding how many meanings 

there are for a particular word. This 

also helps with their spelling. 

Knowing the alphabet is a must 

when looking up a word in a dictionary, 

so the children are taught 

tricks to speed up the process – such 

as looking at the top of the page for 

clues about the words on that page. 

These are all useful skills that can 

be transferred to electronic devices 

as the children progress to higher 

levels where technology is more 

plentiful in classrooms. 

Ferrymead Rotary has been supplying 

these dictionaries to several 

schools in the Bay Harbour area 

for many years. Every year club 

members have a discussion about 

the value of the dictionaries and 

whether or not they have been su-

perseded by electronic mediums. 

However, Mrs Wards says the 

printed versions are a resounding 

success with her class. The children 

are delighted with the dictionaries, 

which are stacked with colourful 

pictures and small stories about 

animals, places, and events. 

Dictionaries are subsidised for 

year 4 students in low decile schools 

by the Bill and Lorna Boyd Trust. 

Bill Boyd, a New Zealander, was 

president of Rotary International, 

the international body of Rotary 

which covers more than a million 

members in more than 200 countries.

CULTURE: Corban Te Aika speaks at the opening of the Sumner School learning hub, Rapanui. 

Mr Te Aika gifted the Maori name to the new block and worked with the children on the cultural 

narrative of the building. The Sumner School kapa haka group also performed. 

Learning 

hub 

opened 

THE WHOLE of Sumner School 

gathered together with parents 

recently to mark the opening of the 

new senior learning hub. 

The school’s kapa haka pupils 

took part in the blessing of the 

building. 

Port Hills MP Ruth Dyson, assisted 

by the youngest and oldest 

students at the school, cut the ribbon 

to officially declare the building 

open. 

Everyone was invited to look 

around the new hub, which will 

house year 7 and 8 pupils. 

YOUNG AND 

OLD: Sumner 

School’s oldest 

and youngest 

members, Pablo 

Fitzgerald, 13, 

and Vincent 

Norton, 5, helped 

Ruth Dyson cut 

the ribbon. 


COMMUNITY organisation 

The Garage Sale is working 

with Lyttelton Primary School 

senior pupils to put together a 

catwalk show and evening of 

entertainment. 

There will be stalls selling 

natural beauty products and 

clothing, and all catwalk 

outfits will be for sale, with all 

proceeds going to the school 

and The Garage Sale. 

Said event co-ordinator 

Ruth Targus: “It’s basically a 

marketing exercise for secondhand 

clothes – looking at how 

we can recycle and reuse – but 

also working with the schools 

to put together an event. 

The students are involved in 

putting together a soundtrack, 

staging, choreography; they’re 

doing food for the event as a 

fundraiser for the school camp. 

It’s full on.” 

The Garage Sale sells 

second-hand goods and 

uses the proceeds to support 

community groups in the 

Lyttelton area. 

Part of a working group 

that’s been putting the show 

together, Ms Targus has 

recently been rounding up 

some adult volunteers to be 

models. 

“The local salons are going to 

do the hair and make-up so it 

will, hopefully, be an evening 

of fun.” 

This is her first time doing a 

large-scale event – “I’ve been a 

drama teacher and organised 

fashion shows in the past but 

more from a technical side of 

things.” 

Now running a business 

called The Sewing Fairy, Ms 

Targus said she has an interest 

in upcycling and making 

sure things don’t get thrown 

away. 

“That’s where my interest 

came in and it just got bigger 

and bigger from there.”

My Absolute Darling 

by Gabriel Tallent 

The Most Talked About Debut of 2017 

‘You think you’re invincible. You think you won’t ever miss. 

We need to put the fear on you. You need to surrender yourself 

to death before you ever begin, and accept your life as a state of 

grace, and then and only then will you be good enough.’ 

At 14, Turtle Alveston knows the use of every gun on her wall; 

That chaos is coming and only the strong will survive it; 

That her daddy loves her more than anything else in this world. 

And he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her with him. 

She doesn’t know why she feels so different from the other girls at school; 

Why the line between love and pain can be so hard to see; 

Why making a friend may be the bravest and most terrifying thing she has ever done 

And what her daddy will do when he finds out … 

Sometimes strength is not the same as courage. 

Sometimes leaving is not the only way to escape. 

Sometimes surviving isn’t enough. 

The High Road 

A Journey to the New Frontier of Cannabis 

by Colin Hogg 

Unsettled by the stiff old rules at home, writer Colin Hogg and his faithful sidekick 

Bruce hit the high road in America on an exploration of a wild new world, where 

cannabis is free and easy. 

Like going on a road trip with Bill Bryson driving and Hunter S Thompson riding 

shot-gun, Colin Hogg embarks on a journey up the long coast road, bewildered by 

the unfair realities concerning his natural medicine of choice. Laugh-out-loud funny, 

this is a journey to the new frontier of cannabis, travelling four states that have given 

the legal nod to marijuana and three states that have fully inhaled the cannabis 

revolution and gone recreational. After sampling the best America has to offer, the 

writer also makes a case for legal marijuana at home, where laws are out-dated 

and draconian.

News 

Unleashed dogs a risk 

for Port Hills sheep 

IN DANGER: Port Hills users are urged to keep dogs leashed 

and keep them away from ewes and their lambs. 

DOGS MUST now be kept on 

a leash as lambing season gets 

under way. 

There are hundreds of lambs 

around Halswell Quarry, Mt 

Vernon, Sugarloaf, Scarborough 

Hill, Greenwood Reserve, Godley 

Head Reserve, Castle Hill Reserve 

and Montgomery Spur Reserve. 

Matt Rose, a city council ranger 

based at Victoria Park, said signs 

have been put up on Port Hills 

tracks alerting visitors to the 

lambs, but he has noticed people 

are still walking and biking in the 

area with their dogs roaming free. 

There have been cases in the 

past where dogs have chased or 

mauled newborn lambs. 

“The city council doesn’t close 

tracks for lambing, but we are 

asking the public to respect stock 

welfare. The next four to five 

weeks are the most crucial time 

for lambing and it’s important 

that dogs are kept on a lead,” said 

Mr Rose. 

City council reserves are used 

for sheep grazing by farmers who 

hold a licence. 

The grazing is an important 

management tool for the grassland/tussock 

areas of the Port 

Hills and helps to reduce fire risk 

by keeping grass short and reducing 

the spread of woody weeds. 

Mr Rose said, if someone comes 

across a lamb that seems abandoned, 

it is usually best to leave 

it there, write down the location 

and call the city council’s call 

centre. 

In many cases the ewe has just 

temporarily left the lamb and is 

grazing nearby. 

If people handle the lamb it 

becomes harder for the mother to 

recognise her offspring and she 

might reject it as a result. 

Port Hills farmer Jean Scott is 

expecting an excellent lambing 

season this year. She asked people 

using Port Hills tracks to keep 

their distance from stock, leave 

gates as they found them and 

keep their dogs under control. 

Fines of $300 can be issued to 

owners of dogs not kept under 

effective control and if a dog attacks 

stock the owner could face 

prosecution by the city council. 

SUMNER HAS joined the 

nationwide movement towards 

predator-free communities. 

A grant from the Kiwibank/ 

Predator Free NZ Trust will 

help establish a network of 

backyard traps throughout 

Sumner. 

The project aims to eliminate 

the main predators of native 

wildlife and allow the ‘morning 

chorus‘ to flourish. 

Monitoring in other predator-free 

communities shows 

that if one in five households 

have traps, predator numbers 

are suppressed enough to create 

an urban wildlife sanctuary. 

Within this sanctuary, the 

Predator Free Sumner Team 

Te Manu Waiata (bird song,) 

hopes to see bellbird, fantail, 

BIRDSONG: 

Predator Free 

Sumner hopes 

tui and kereru 

will eventually 

return to the 

area. 

Morning chorus could be 

heard again in Sumner 

and grey warbler thrive and 

long term see the return of tui 

and kereru. 

The trust has funding to provide 

up to 200 households with 

free monitoring equipment 

and heavily subsidised traps for 

rats, possums and mustelids. 

Participants just need to 

keep their trap set and report 

any catches back to the coordinators 

for measurement. 

To launch the project, a 

community open house and 

sausage sizzle is planned for 

Sunday, September 10, 10am- 

1pm outside the Sumner 

SuperValue supermarket. 

Residents are invited to go 

along and see the traps and 

have a chat to the team to find 

out how they can get involved.
