Mega season ahead for yacht club
HELPING HAND: Ferrymead Mitre 10 Mega’s Tony Franc with the new mainsails.
• By Sarla Donovan
THE RAIN cleared to sunny
skies and warm north-east
winds, perfect conditions for
Christchurch Yacht Club’s
season opener on Saturday
afternoon.
The formal launch got under
way at noon with an update on
recent developments at the club,
the raising of the club flag, a
glass of champagne and a light
lunch.
Competition followed at 1pm
with about 40 boats racing on
the day.
Six bright orange mainsail sets
donated by Ferrymead Mitre 10
Mega could be spied bobbing out
on the water.
The sails on the club’s optimist
boats, used for learn to sail
classes, were old and worn out so
Mitre 10 offered to replace them,
said club commodore Richard
Ineson.
“These new ones are nice and
bright, good for training. When
the boats go out, they’re easy to
distinguish.”
Numbers at the opening event
were excellent, he said.

After a fall-off in membership
following the earthquakes,
numbers had stabilised and were
now in a growth pattern.
Learn to sail classes start next
week and were full.
The recent success of Team
New Zealand’s campaign had
helped to bring the sport of
yachting back to the forefront.

Residents
fired up
over
footpath
parking
fines
• By Sarla Donovan
RICHMOND HILL Rd residents
are being ticketed by city council
staff for parking on the footpath –
and some have taken umbrage at
the move.
Brian Anderson has lived on
the road for 35 years and says
residents have always parked on
the footpath out of courtesy and
necessity.
He told Bay Harbour News he
was surprised to receive a $40
ticket out of the blue last month
for something he’s always done.
“Everyone who lives on, or visits,
the lower to middle sections of
Richmond Hill Road parks on the
footpath,” Mr Anderson said.
“It’s too narrow not to. By
parking clear of the footpath, the
road is needlessly narrowed and
obstructed, greatly increasing the
risk of an accident.”
Mr Anderson believed this had
been accepted by both residents
and the city council.
However, earlier this month, he
was ticketed twice and his neighbour
also received one.

DESK News.................................3, 7-8
WHAT AN election it’s going to
be on Saturday night.
The best and potentially the
closest in many years, and one
which will shape the country’s
future for sometime.
Star Media, publisher of Bay
Harbour News, will be following
the election on our website www.
star.kiwi and we’ll have reporters
out on the street and bringing
you latest updates through the
afternoon and into the night.
The Star tomorrow will also have
an in-depth election preview.
The polls clearly show people
have shifted to voting for either
National and Labour and this
could spell doom for many
smaller party politicians who
have made it into Parliament on
the back of MMP.
Indications are voter turnout
will be high and which ever party
mobilises its supporters best on
Saturday will win.

Parking fines for residents
•From page 1
Mr Anderson believes the city
council has altered its policy on
footpath parking and should
inform the public.
However, a city council
spokeswoman said there had
been no recent change in its
enforcement policy.
City council transport
operations manager Aaron
Haymes said staff had visited
Richmond Hill Rd this month
following complaints from
residents about vehicles parking
on the footpath.
“This issue is common,
particularly in the hill suburbs,
and officers try to take a
pragmatic approach and weigh
up safety concerns prior to
issuing a notice.”
Mr Haymes said the footpath
on Richmond Hill Rd was
designed to allow vehicles to
park partially over it without
obstructing either the roadway
or the footpath completely.
“In this instance . . . the
footpath was fully blocked,
preventing pedestrian access . . .
(which) poses a serious risk to
pedestrians as they then have to
go on to the road to get past.”
Mr Anderson said he was now
parking half on the footpath
and half on the road.
FINED: Brian and Suwadee Anderson have been parking in the same spot for more than 30
years on Richmond Hill Rd. Now the city council is giving their vehicle tickets for being on
the footpath.
PHOTO MARTIN HUNTER
“However, I do not know if
that is acceptable or not as noone
has responded to me,” he
said.
“My immediate neighbour
is doing much the same, but
further up the hill, everyone
parks hard against the rails as
ever.”

In Brief
COASTAL PATHWAY
The Christchurch Coastal Pathway
group is seeking New Zealand
Transport Agency funding to help
cover a $10 million shortfall for the
Moncks Bay-Shag Rock section.
It has asked the city council to
include the pathway within the
Major Cycleways Route programme,
which would allow it to apply for
NZTA assistance. The Linwood-
Central-Heathcote Community
Board is seeking clarification from
city council staff this week about
whether the pathway fits within the
programme’s criteria.
TEDDINGTON CRASH
The driver of a vehicle which rolled
into a ditch near the Wheatsheaf
Tavern about 10.40pm on Saturday
was lucky to escape without injuries.
Governors Bay Fire Brigade officer
in charge Ken Frost said the vehicle
suffered significant damage when
it went off the Governors Bay-
Teddington Rd and landed in a creek.
The driver, who was headed towards
Governor’s Bay, was from Rangiora.
MUSEUM SITE DELAY
A city council decision on gifting
property at 33-35 London St to the
Lyttelton Historical Museum Society
to rebuild the museum isn’t likely
until October. The decision was to be
made at a full city council meeting
last week, but has been referred to a
hearing panel.
“Now is the moment we’ve been
waiting for. It’s time. This is our
opportunity to build a better, fairer
future for New Zealand. To fix our
healthcare, grow our economy,
respect our environment and to look
after our towns as much as our cities.
It’s time to change things for the
better. I’m ready. We’re ready.”
Jacinda Ardern, Labour Leader
Ruth
Dyson
for Port Hills
As your local Member of Parliament, I listen to
people, work hard and get things done. We need
affordable housing, better mental health services
and truly swimmable rivers and lakes. I want to
be part of a Labour-led government that delivers
these things for all New Zealanders.

Rose McInerney
Principal’s ‘excitement and relief’ over
The Redcliffs community learned this month
that its school will finally be rebuilt at Redcliffs
Park. Principal Rose McInerney talks to Sarla
Donovan about the long battle to keep the
school open
Congratulations Rose. How
does it feel?
It feels really exciting to have
absolute certainly – there can be
no change to the decision and we
know we’re going to have a school
back in Redcliffs. There’s excitement
and relief, like a massive
weight’s been lifted off the many
shoulders that helped with this
battle.
Did you pop some bubbly
afterwards?
We did – we had a great night.
We went out to a restaurant and
had a lovely evening together.
You’ve really got to mark the
celebrations on a long journey
like this.
Were there ever any moments
of doubt that you’d get the
school back to Redcliffs?
We had a lot of roadblocks
along the way but there was such
a determination to keep finding
a way through. I wouldn’t say it
was doubt. Something else would
be put in our way and the many
people who helped thought,
‘right, what are we going to do
about this?’ It was a very, very
determined group with an amazing
skill set.
It must be a fairly unusual
experience for a principal?
Very. I certainly spoke to a
few of the principals who had to
go through the threat of closure
and some that actually had to
handle closure. Such empathy
and shared experience, but no
there wouldn’t be many that have
done this.
Has it changed you?
I’m still the same me that I
was but I’ve probably grown in
strength and fortitude . . . and
determination. I guess I’ve learnt
to read people and situations and
to really get the best out of people
– that’s been a big thing.
What kept you going when
things got tough?
People. Such a strong group
who would know when it was
hard and do amazingly kind
things. Last year, when we were
going through the waiting game,
we had groups of parents arriving
with morning tea and putting
magazines in the staff toilets –
amazing, kind gestures. Emails
of support saying ‘keep going’,
cards, and all of those little gestures
so you knew there’s a lot of
people who care about this. And
RELIEVED: Rose McInerney,
principal of Redcliffs School.
PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER
just doing it for our kids. They’ve
had such a stoic, resilient attitude
since we had to move three times.
That sense of keeping on going
and doing it for the community. I
think all of us that were involved
in fighting the closure knew that
we had a really good chance,
because we had the facts and the
evidence, so you never wanted to
give up.
You certainly had strong
support from the wider community.
We did and, if I could make
special mention of Ruth Dyson.
Since we’ve moved she’s visited
our school every single month,
no matter where we were. She’s
been part of the team, along with
the board, that’s really helped
keep our school open. Every
month, without fail, no matter
what was happening, she calls in
and she sees the staff, the kids. I
think that’s a real measure of a
person.
In your heart of hearts, why
do you think (former education
minister) Hekia Parata didn’t
let you go back to the old site?

the
www.star.kiwi
decision to rebuild school in Redcliffs
I THINK she was genuinely
worried about returning us
to that site. She found it hard
to accept that it was right
for our school to return to
there. She wanted to keep
the school open and she did
listen to how important it was
for the community, so we’ve
compromised on this new site.
But the most important thing is
that we’ve kept our school open.
Is there a moment that stands
out over this whole time of battling
to stay?
One of the biggest days was
July last year when (Hekia
Parata) said she was going to do
more work but that our school
was going to stay open. As a
leader, you always hope for the
best and prepare for the worst. I
guess I was mentally preparing,
while still very hopeful, and it
was such an amazing day to hear
the news that our huge amount
of work on submissions and petitions
and going for visits with her
regularly had paid off. That was
huge, because otherwise we were
facing the prospect of closing at
the end of the year, having to put
our kids in different schools and
tell the staff they had no jobs.
That was a huge day. November
was big because we found out we
were moving sites. And then last
week was the final certainty – the
city council agreed to the land
swap and we had a site to go to.
Three big moments.
When did you win the competition
to get Ed Sheeran to visit?
Just after we heard the news
that we were going to close was
when the Ed Sheeran competition
came around. Our entire
staff, who’d just found out they
FIT: As well as
regular early
morning runs,
Rose McInerney
competed in
the 48km Big
Easy Marathon
in Wanaka.
were potentially losing their jobs,
our entire staff and community
put their heart and soul into winning
that competition. So when
we won, we were completely
under threat of closure and it
was such a proud moment that
everyone had put aside their concerns
and achieved something
really positive for the kids. We
did Edcliffs News, we changed
the words to his songs, we had an
Edcliffs mufti-day, and went all
out making it a good time for the
kids. It exemplifies how the staff
operate when under hardship
– turning something really bad
into something awesome. Then
we won and he came to visit the
kids, which just lifted everyone’s
spirits, as well as raising the profile
of what was happening with
the school.
You must feel like you live
and breath your job sometimes?
What do you do to relax?
I’m really lucky. I’ve got three
boys and a very understanding
husband and we definitely have
family time on the weekend. I
run every morning, around the
neighbourhood, often with my
dog Dibley – he’s a spanador
(spaniel/labrador cross). I play
netball for the Kia Toa club. So
I do things to switch off from
school. The boys are 17, 13 and 8.
My husband is awesome; he’s got
a massive job, too, as a national
manager for NZI Insurance.
You got your teaching degree
from Victoria University – are
you a Wellingtonian?
No, I grew up in Nelson, Tahunanui,
by the beach. Dad worked
for a legal firm and mum was
a nurse. My husband got a job
here and we moved here from the
North Island about 16 years ago.
Is teaching in your blood?
Not from mum and dad, but
I’ve got three sisters who are
teachers – one in early childhood,
one in primary and one in
secondary. I’m actually from a
family of six girls, three of us live
here. It was awesome growing up
with five sisters; you learn a lot
of problem-solving skills when
you’re part of a big family – how
to argue well and how to bounce
back from things. I’m the second
youngest. I met my husband
through teachers college – I was
there with his sister, we used to
play squash together.
If I asked one of your
colleagues to describe you, what
do you think they’d say?
Energetic, fair, hopefully
supportive, inclusive (laughs).
My deputy principal’s sitting here
telling me things. It’s hard saying
things about yourself.
There’s only a couple more
weeks until the October
holidays – do you have any
plans?
My family and I are going to
Vietnam – all of us, my husband
and my three lads. A little bit
of adventuring but quite a lot
of beach-time I think. We’ve
worked pretty hard this year so
I’m ready for a bit of a breather.

Call for longer library hours
But don’t

IT COULD be next year

Library, Linwood Library and

Ms Robertson said the
opening hours at Sumner
were based on the needs of
a “smaller community”, and
what was in place prior to the
previous library’s closure.
“Any increases to library
hours . . . would have financial
implications and would need
to go through the Annual Plan

Yacht club
has wind
in its sails
again
•From page 1
“It’s not an automatic effect
but there are things happening.
Grant Dalton and some of the
Team New Zealand crew are
coming down for a fundraising
event next month,” Mr Ineson
said.
“They are supporting the
Pleasant Point Yacht Club
rebuild. It’s all part and parcel of
promoting yachting and we
hope it will have ongoing
benefits.”
Sailing from Moncks Bay
since 1891, Christchurch Yacht
Club is one of the oldest in the
country.
It famously produced New
Zealand’s first Olympic sailing
gold medallists, Peter Mander
and Jack Cropp, in Melbourne in
1956, and in 1992 Lesley Egnot
won a silver in Barcelona.
A new $1.17 million boatshed
is set to be completed by
Christmas, replacing the one
demolished in June, 2011.
NEVER IN his wildest dreams
did Christ’s College Old Boy
Hamish Thomas think he would
be awarded a scholarship to
Cambridge University.
But in just a few weeks time
the 18-year-old will be at Corpus
Christi College, studying
physics, mathematics and chemistry
on a three-year Girdlers
Scholarship for undergraduate
study.
“Throughout the whole application
process, I never, ever
thought I would win the thing.
I couldn’t believe it when I was
told earlier this year,” says Hamish
who completed year 13 last
year, and will leave Christchurch
on Saturday.
From Mt Pleasant, Hamish
went to Redcliffs School and
Cathedral Grammar before
winning a Somes Exhibition
Scholarship to Christ’s College,
where maths and sciences
proved his specialty areas.
Those same disciplines will be
his focus while on the Girdlers
Scholarship, one of which
is provided annually for an
outstanding New Zealand applicant.
The Worshipful Company of
Girdlers has had an association
with New Zealand since 1933
and in 1950 at the instigation of
the 3 rd Viscount Brentford, the
company established a scholarship
for an outstanding New
Zealander to go to England to
study for a degree.
“I’m looking forward to the
challenges and changes ahead
and can’t wait to meet the diverse
and brilliant people studying
and working at Cambridge,”
Hamish says.

SKILLS: Former Christ’s College and Redcliffs School student
Hamish Thomas has won a three-year scholarship to study
maths and sciences at Cambridge University in England.
I excelled in different areas. The
combination of my academic
and cultural strengths possibly
made me a unique candidate.
“The selectors showed great
interest in theatresports, which
fosters creative and flexible
thinking. I suggested these were
very important skills for a scientist
and I think they agreed.”
Hamish’s theatresports team
from Christ’s College won the
South Island competition and
the debating team he took part
in from years 10-13, won the
Russell McVeagh Canterbury
Regional Competition last year
and came second in the interschool
competition.
For Hamish, the move to Britain
and into one of the world’s
most prestigious universities, is
still slightly unreal.
“I’ll start studies on October 3
and because I’m living in a normal
university hall of residence,
I imagine it’s going to be fairly
easy to meet other students and
make friends.
The style of lecture delivery is
going to be different from what
he experienced earlier this year
when completing a semester
in health sciences at Otago
University.
“There were hundreds in some
of those lectures, but I think at
Cambridge there will be lots of
tutorials with teaching fellows
and professors.”
With a brother at Auckland
University studying animation
and design, a father who is a
civil engineer and a mother who
is head of english at Christ’s
College, Hamish says he will
miss family, friends and the
New Zealand connection.

Spring is here
By the time this edition prints it will be less than a week until the beginning of Daylight Savings! With
September – November being a peak selling period in NZ there is a surge in property listings as owners
want to sell and make new plans as they approach the end of the year. If you are preparing to sell your
home these simple tips will help you secure top dollar. It’s the combination of every component of the
sale process that contributes to a premium result.
• Clear kitchen benches of all clutter, pop toasters and kettles on a tray that can be moved in
and out of the cupboard with ease
• Take magnets, and paperwork off fridges
• Clear away clutter from bedroom side tables, leaving only bedside lamps and one accessory
• Tidy linen cupboards and kitchen cupboards, if they are bulging at the seams it gives the
buyer an impression of less room
• Get rid of all unnecessary cables, wires, cords and chargers. If they have to be seen, invest in
cord organisers to keep them together as one unit
• Invest in a few cute baskets that you can bundle loose items into and pop onto a shelf in the
garage or cupboard for open homes

YOUR SAY: What do you think of
port car parking. Send your views to sarla.
donovan@starmedia.kiwi
Mark Watson – Lyttelton
Port Company car park to
leave only enough space for
one bus at the wharf? This is
nothing short of LPC sabotaging
public transport in Lyttelton.
If there’s only enough
space for one bus at the wharf
there will be chaos down there.
Both the 535 and the 28 service
the ferry at the wharf. It’s the
end of the trip for the 28 bus,
so it has to wait there between
dropping off passengers for the
ferry, and picking up passengers
from the ferry. The buses
taking passengers home after
work often get held up in traffic,
so it can’t be predicted exactly
when each bus will arrive
at the wharf. It’s not unusual
for two 28 buses to arrive at
the wharf at the same time, or
for the 535 and two 28s to be
there all together. LPC could
have put the car parking for
its new headquarters in many
other places. But it chose to
stick it in the middle of the access
way between the ferry and
Lyttelton town. The comment
from Mr Simmers says it all:
providing an extra bus parking
space “wasn’t a good utilisation
of the land area.” So providing
private car parks for the headquarters
is better utilisation of
that land?
Marcia Bryant – City
Council transport operations
manager says Lyttelton Port
Company headquarters car
park may mean ferry passengers
will have to use the
bus stop on Norwich Quay. No
way. For people who struggle
with stairs, and families with
young children and buggies,
that’s like being dropped off
on Moorhouse Ave to get a
bus from the interchange.
Come on city council ECan,
and LPC – someone please use
some common sense, act with
decency, and ensure there’s
fair public access between the
buses and the ferry.
Kim Glennie – There
should be a quick pick-up/
drop-off zone. I pick up and
drop off my 10-year-old
daughter and I don’t like her
to walk around the edge of the
port by herself. Sometimes I
am delayed by up to 15min
by a red light on the tunnel.
I do park illegally by the bus
stop and run to get her. When
my children were young I
found it difficult to negotiate
the old stairs and overhead
bridge with two pre-schoolers,
a buggy and two car seats. I
can imagine some of the older
generation would appreciate a
close pick up as well. We use
the ferry connecting bus service
on a regular basis and find
its close proximity works well,
especially when it’s raining.
Ann Thornton – I am an
82-year-old Diamond Harbour
resident. I make frequent use
of the ferry and bus to save me
driving into Christchurch and
to provide me with contact
with my neighbours. I also
have a young grandchild who
proudly travels on the ferry on
his own to visit having been
dropped off by parents on
the town side to the service. I
advocate strongly for a modest
sized drop-off/pick-up space
on the Lyttelton jetty. I also
advocate for the retention of
the bus service to the jetty and
space for two buses as the area
is serviced by both 28 and 535
buses.

•From page 11
Alison Ross – I acknowledge
Richard Suggate’s concerns
over the Diamond Harbour
ferry access but he appears to be
unacquainted with important
background detail. In the political
and social maelstrom following
9/11 US Homeland Security
released a series of non-negotiable
security requirements to all ports
worldwide which trans-shipped
goods directly across the United
States border.
Unless security management
was brought up to the required
level ports would be permanently
excluded from all future direct
trans-shipping operations. The
proposed, and since confirmed,
security perimeter includes the
present site of the ferry services,
sounding the inevitable death
knell to all future ferry operations
from that site.
Lyttelton Port Company,
cognisant of potential real and
emotional disruption to residents
consequent to the major security
perimeter changes allowed the
ferry operations to continue on
the site as a temporary measure.
It was my opinion at the time
that although the company was
attempting to ease the public into
accepting the security changes, by
not grasping the nettle it created
a false sense among Diamond
Harbour residents that this could,
with lobbying, ensure the ferry
site would remain permanently
below Oxford St.
LPC would have been better to
announce a planned move of the
ferry operations to the west of the
inner harbour at Dampier Bay
immediately as talks were already
under way to develop that area
as a dedicated public recreation
area, with yacht berthing facilities,
food services and a ferry/bus
terminus along with a covered
walkway from the ferry.
I note that discussions on the
bus service included continuing
the circular route around the Lyttelton
commercial centre either
before or after the terminus pickup/drop-off.
The present situation
has not been helped by a less than
objective intransigence by certain
of the former Lyttelton/Mount
Herbert Community Board to the
necessary and inevitable changes.
Had the proposed ferry terminal
changes been announced earlier
they could have been included
in phase one of the Dampier Bay
redevelopment. I continue to be
disappointed when hearing complaints
from Diamond Harbour
residents about having to walk
from Dampier Bay to London St
in the future.
They need to recognise the
importance of Port Lyttelton to the
whole of Canterbury. The physical
centre of the port is around
Dampier Bay. Ferry patrons should
be aware that residents from West
Lyttelton have been walking to Lyttelton’s
commercial centre without
complaint for over 100 years.

Calder Green Reserve opened
THE HISTORY of Calder Green
Reserve is now on display for all
to see.
A new sign explaining the significance
of the lower Heathcote
reserve was unveiled recently.
Formerly known as Devils
Elbow, Calder Green Reserve is
a salt marsh and riparian area
lying between Ferry and Tunnel
Rds.
Forest and Bird maintains the
area with input from the city
council and community groups.
Heathcote ward city councillor
Sara Templeton was at the opening
of the project.
Her daughter has been involved
through her local guide
group, which has planted swathes
of ngaio over the past few years.
She complimented Forest and
Bird on the work done so far.
“I’m looking forward to all
the groups working together on
a range of challenges including
educating dog owners and the
wider public about the native
wildlife present in the area and
how to protect it.”
Mick Ingram the volunteer
manager of the Calder Green Reserve
project is designing habitat
to suit all the wildlife of the area
and has a particular soft-spot for
lizards.
He’s hopeful that as people visit

the reserve and learn more about
the area, “they will come to love
its quiet serenity as I do.”
“The hope is more people will
become kaitiaki (caretakers) of
this stretch of river and help its
wildlife thrive into the future,”
Mr Ingram said.

Ridley with some of the traps they received from DOC and the Lyttelton Port
Company.
New traps, bait helps
pupils control pests
TRAPS AND bait costing
about $8000 will help
reduce rat, possum and
stoat populations on
Banks Peninsula.
The Little River Trap
Library and Lyttleton
Primary School have been
given more than 50 traps
by the Department of
Conservation.
Conservation Minister
Maggie Barry and
Associate Conservation
Minister Nicky Wagner
presented the traps at a
Predator Free 2050 event
last week.
Lyttelton Primary
School received 15 traps,
including five possum
traps, from the Lyttelton
Port Company.
The school plans to start
trapping on land above
the township that’s owned
by LPC.
Said Ms Barry: “The
easy-to-use traps will
enable the school children
to take their conservation
work to the next level.”
The Little River Trap
Library was the first of
its kind in New Zealand
and lends traps for free to
people wanting to protect
wildlife on their properties
It was given 40 traps
and bait, enabling it to
continue its work.
Ms Barry said the two
projects were examples of
“collaboration and tireless
dedication,” helping to
eradicate predators and
create pockets of safe habitat.
Ms Wagner said there
were signs the programme
was already having an
impact.
“Tui are beginning to
prosper on the peninsula
and the white-flippered
penguin colony in Flea
Bay/Pohatu has doubled
in size since this work
began,”
“Eventually, I believe
these predator-free areas
will expand to cover
the whole of Lyttelton,
Banks Peninsula, wider
Christchurch and
beyond,” Ms Wagner said.
“I’m confident that by
2050 we’ll have a rat, stoat
and possum-free New
Zealand.”
Artist’s uses rural artefacts to
raise funds for children’s home
• By Sarla Donovan
LYTTELTON artist
Lisa Patterson has fond
memories of fossicking
through old farm sheds
and barns to find faded
certificates, tarnished
medals and dented
trophies.
She said the objects
symbolise past successes
at A&P shows, dressage
events, best bull and other
farm day achievements.
“I like trophies. I sometimes
go to farms and I’m
drawn to the certificates,
plaques, cups and awards
that line walls or shelves,
seemingly forgotten,” Lisa
says.
Such memories have
inspired the Lyttelton
artist’s contribution to this
year’s Sculpture on the
Peninsula – a collection
of trophies carved out of
local oak with lead and
plaster elements.
She’s hoping her work
will be displayed in the
stables at Louden Farm,
Teddington, where the
biennial fundraiser for
Cholmondeley Children’s
Home will be held in
November.
Contributors are encouraged
to produce site
specific works to display in
the paddocks, sheds, farm
buildings and among the
trees on the farm’s varied
landscapes.
From 95 submissions,
Christchurch Art Gallery
curator Lara Strongman
and landscape architect
Dany Kamo chose about
62 works, with artists
including Paul Dibble,
Cheryl Lucas, Mark
Whyte, Hannah Kidd,
Aaron Te Rangiao, Alison
Erikson and Sam Mahon.
Materials range from
dead animal carcasses to
bronze, steel and ceramics,
and prices go from $100
up to about $30,000.
•The 10th Sculpture
on the Peninsula
event will be held on
November 10, 11 and
12. Tickets are on sale
from October 1.

Horotane Valley’s biggest National fan $100,000
• By Bridget Rutherford
IF YOU’VE seen a friendly
looking chap parked on the
side of the road with a National
Party sign waving to motorists
– that’s Rae Mills.
The 76-year-old has been
sitting on the side of busy roads
at peak travel times promoting
National every election for the
last decade.
The Horotane
Valley resident
has been volunteering
for the
party for much
longer.
Mr Mills (left),
who moved to
Christchurch in 1984, wasn’t
always a National supporter.
He switched from Labour
about 40 years ago when he was
chairman of Southland’s Otatara
Kindergarten committee.
National had been in Government
and told Mr Mills it had
pledged money towards a loan
for the kindergarten.
But when Labour won the
1972 general election, Mr Mills
was told the Government
did not have the money in its
budget.
Mr Mills said he then
marched into National’s Wallace
MP Brian Talboys’ office to
see if he could help.
“He said I’ll sort that out for
you,” Mr Mills said.
“Eleven days later I got a reply
from Education Minister Phil
Amos, saying approval has been
granted for your loan.
“I was quite impressed, because
I was Labour.”
He has been volunteering for
National ever since.
Mr Mills has been parking
on the side of Ferry Rd in Ferrymead,
Halswell Rd and State
Highway 1 between Christchurch
and Amberley waving to
passersby since July.
He does it on weekdays for a
couple of hours in the mornings
and evenings.
“About 80 per cent of people
wave,” he said.
“I believe in what I’m doing, I
know it’s working.”
His role was to encourage
people to party vote National,
followed by its candidate for
each electorate, he said.
DEDICATED:
Rae Mills, of
Horotane Valley,
spends a couple
of hours in
the morning
and evening
promoting
National for
the general
election.

HUNTER
“It really is about people ticking
both boxes.”
He said the outcome of the
September 23 election would be
tight – but he hoped National
would come out on top.
Mr Mills, who is a former
builder and now works at Mitre
10 Mega Ferrymead, said he was
happy to continue volunteering
during election time if his wife
Pat says it’s okay.
“I’m still fit and well and able
to do it.”
plan for
Allandale
• By Sarla Donovan
A $100,000 regeneration project
around the headwaters of the
Allandale Stream is starting to show
positive results.
The Allandale Stream Reserve
Project aims to regenerate native
bush and riparian vegetation at the
stream headwaters to provide good
habitat for native fish, birds and
invertebrates.
Since 2011 more than 4.5km of
livestock fencing has been installed
to keep stock out of the stream and
about 12,000 trees, shrubs and native
grasses planted.
Project manager Denis Aldridge
is the general manager at Living
Springs Camp and Conference Centre,
which sits on 400 hectares of
land and which includes Allandale
Stream.
“It’s a big project to plant that
many plants,” he said. “We’ve had
the limited service army volunteers,
various youth groups, holiday camp
groups, prison groups.”
The Banks Peninsula Water Zone
Committee have funded $115,141
towards the project.
Values-wise, says Mr Aldridge,
this is where he wants Living
Springs to go.

Planned approach to replanting
As National
Party MP
Nuk Korako
writes, Te
Tapuwai o
Rakau Trust
will leave
a legacy
for future
generations
It is three days until the election.
This will be a busy three days
as my team and I take our last
chance of getting our message
out there – that only National
can continue the strong growth
in the economy that allows us
to improve public services and
support our most vulnerable
New Zealanders into better
lives.
Many people like having multiple
MPs serving the Port Hills
electorate, so we are making sure
they know that the best way to
keep an MP in both Government
and opposition is to give
their electorate vote to me, Nuk
Korako.
But today I want to talk about
something local, and very close
to my heart. That is the replanting
of the Port Hills.
After the fires earlier this year,
what became really apparent
to me was that there are many
groups doing an awesome job of
HELP: Replanting efforts on the Port Hills need to be
co-ordinated.
providing trees and getting volunteers
to replant the damaged
areas of our hills.
But to date there hasn’t been
a structured approach to ensure
that we replant the Port Hills
in a way that meets cultural
and ecological best practice.
So I have been working with a
group of like-minded and very
passionate people to establish
a trust that can assist with cocoordinating
planned cultural
and ecological reforestation
programs.
That work came to fruition
earlier this month, with the
launch of Te Tapuwae o Rakau
Trust (The Tree Footprints
Trust.) The trust was launched
with the symbolic planting
of a tree at the Christchurch
Adventure Park, and is now
working with already established
organisations, Ngai Tahu and
landowners to plan the first
planting.
I believe that this co-ordinated
approach by the trust, to engage
with all groups, can only enhance
the great work done by all.
We have the opportunity to
leave a legacy of replanted and
new native forests that match the
ecological and cultural footprint
of the Port Hills, and encourage
our native plants and wildlife to
flourish.
Akaroa go from film
sets to the stage
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
FROM DESIGNING costumes
to fit Orlando Bloom to helping
create blockbuster film sets –
Akaroa’s John Harding and
Lesley Burkes-Harding know
how to transform a show into a
full visual experience.
Audiences at the
Isaac Theatre Royal
have been seeing an
endless stream of
costumes embedded
Lesley
Burkes-
Harding
John
Harding
with sequins and
neo-Gothic style
sets designed by the
Akaroa couple in
Showbiz Christchurch’s
latest production
of Sister Act.
Hundreds of costumes
were designed
by Burkes-Harding
for the show, while
her husband created
the set which has
toured all over the country.
Between them, they have 65
years of experience working in
television, consortium productions
and major films including
Avatar, King Kong and The Lord
of the Rings.
While working on The Hobbit,
Burkes-Harding designed
the costumes for Bloom in his
role as the elf Legolas.
Like most of the productions
the couple have worked on, the
design for Sister Act has been a
large undertaking.
“It is always a big job . . . there
are many hundreds of sequin
fabrics that I bought for that
show,” Burkes-Harding said.
She said in theatre, costumes
need to be sturdy and well
designed to suit the different
people who wear them.
It is similar for Harding, who
said every set he designs needs
to be “elastic” to adapt to each
venue on which it is staged.
“One of the first things was
solving how to do multiple scene
changes, so I came up with the
idea of a double conveyor belt,”
he said.
Other key elements in the set
include the use of LED lighting
to recreate the “exquisite” quality
of the stained-glass church
windows, and a narthex that he
found in a recycling yard near
Rangiora, which came from
church rubble after the February
22, 2011, earthquake.
•The show ends on
Saturday
Expect night-time traffic delays at the Lyttelton Tunnel
If you are driving at night through the Lyttelton Tunnel,
expect occasional delays from later this month through
until December 2018.
For a few nights each month, just one traffic lane in the tunnel will be open and on
occasions both traffic lanes will need to be closed.
These traffic lane closures are required as work begins on a $28.7 million fire
protection upgrade inside the Lyttelton Tunnel, to increase the safety and
resilience of this essential freight route for both Christchurch and Canterbury.
A project of this scale and complexity makes some traffic lane closures inside the
tunnel unavoidable. They are needed so hundreds of water nozzles that are an
integral part of the fire protection upgrade can be installed in the tunnel ceiling.
To minimise disruptions for tunnel users, the work will be done at night when
traffic flows are lightest.
HOW TO PLAN FOR THESE DELAYS
• A three-monthly calendar for all planned night-time single lane closures
and full closures will be available at nzta.govt.nz/projects/lyttelton-tunnel/
• Lane closure details will be displayed on electronic message boards at the
tunnel at least two days before they happen.
• Closures are planned to the best of the project team’s ability, but may be
subject to change.
• Allow extra time for tunnel travel on these dates.
• Emergency access through the tunnel will still be provided during all
traffic lane closures.
• Most full tunnel traffic lane closures will be from March 2018.
• Real-time traffic information for the Lyttelton Tunnel area can be found
at www.tfc.govt.nz
For more information about the Lyttelton Tunnel fire protection upgrade, go to www.nzta.govt.nz/projects/lyttelton-tunnel/
Find up-to-date information on road conditions, delays and closures at www.nzta.govt.nz/traffic and on the Transport Agency’s
official Twitter and Facebook pages www.nzta.govt.nz/contact-us/connect-with-us/.

This term pupils from the junior syndicate, Te Kohanga, at Diamond Harbour School have been working on their poetry writing
and performance skills. They have been writing rhyming poems, acrostic poems, list poems and Who Am I? riddles.
Pupils performed their work to a supportive audience at the school’s performance cafe.
Standing on the stage and speaking into the microphone allowed them to work on their volume, clarity, fluency, expression and
posture. The teachers and the audience thought they were amazing.

He is so excited about his 11th birthday, in fact, that he wishes it was his birthday
every day.
So, at first, it’s quite exciting when his birthday happens again the next morning.
And again. And again. And again…
But it’s not long before things start to go wrong. Soon, disaster strikes, threatening
something Sam loves even more than birthdays.
Sometimes you have to be careful what you wish for…
