Questions raised over new
Church Bay development
• By Sarla Donovan
CHURCH BAY residents were
scheduled to meet last night to
discuss plans for a commercial
development in Church Bay.
The Bay Harbour News
understands some members of
the Church Bay Neighbourhood
Association have misgivings
about the design.
Spence Developments are
proposing to build a supermarket
and 111-space car park, four
shops, a cafe and a 30-seat cinema
at 139-143 Marine Drive, behind
the On the Spot store.
Church Bay resident and neigbourhood
association committee
member Tracey Ower said the design
needed to be sensitive to the
area. “We are a semi-rural, coastal
environment and at the moment
the proposal doesn’t reflect the
place at all.”
Last night’s meeting followed
on from one held last Tuesday
night, when about 100 people
crammed into the Diamond
Harbour community hall to hear
developer Doug Spence, planning
consultant James Hook and
architect Dean Grant speak about
the plans.

FROM
THE
EDITOR’S
DESK
CHURCH BAY residents aren’t
totally convinced about the new
commercial complex planned for
their sleepy settlement (see page 1).
A public meeting was held last
week to give developers the opportunity
to explain the complex
to locals.
It got the tentative thumbs
up but quite a number of the
people there were from Diamond
Harbour.
The Church Bay Neighbourhood
Association was scheduled to meet
last night, and the design of the
complex appears to be a concern.
Ferrymead Bays’ football side
made it through to the final of the
annual Coastal Spirit under-19
tournament at the weekend before
going down to Dunedin’s Green
Island 1-2 (see page 19). Sho
Mathieson took the MVP award,
and watch out for 15-year-old
Mika Rabuka, who coach Chris
Murphy predicts has a big future.

Almost 250 sign petition
in bid to save ferry terminal bus park
• By Julia Evans
A 248-SIGNATURE petition
pleading for bus parking to be
saved at the Diamond Harbour
ferry terminal has been sent to
Mayor Lianne Dalziel.
A letter and the petition was
sent to the mayor, Environment
Canterbury chief executive
Bill Bayfield
and Lyttelton
Port Company
chief executive
Peter Davie by
the Diamond
Harbour
Community
Richard
Suggate
Association.
Association
chairman
Richard Suggate
expressed the community’s
concerns regarding decreased
bus access to the ferry terminal
from three spaces to one.
The petition aims “to ensure
that within 100m of the terminal,
there is adequate bus parking
on the Lyttelton wharf and
that there is a drop-off/pick-up
zone for private vehicles.”
Mr Suggate said the elderly,
disabled or those with heavy
parcels will have to walk from

has been signed by 248 people.

the “unsafe” Norwich Quay.
And, he said, even then there is
no guarantee there would be a
drop-off zone at all.
“The request is that the city
council takes up its responsibilities
as the port company
shareholder and as the provider
of public transport facilities, to
put in place safe and easy public
access to the Diamond Harbour
ferry.” The association also
wants ECan to ensure the bus
service has adequate access to
Lyttelton wharf by the ferry terminal
and for the port company
to ensure transport access is
maintained.
But Mr Suggate said the
association is pleased the port
company is looking at alternative
options.
An urgent meeting was held
by the Banks Peninsula Community
Board with the port
company, ECan and the city
council last Monday.
It was resolved the port
company and ECan would
investigate other options and
report back to the board.

Adriaan Beddie
Using dance as a way
Originally from South Africa, dance teacher Adriaan Beddie
now lives in Scarborough with his husband Richard. He talks
to Sarla Donovan about having the best job in the world
JOY: Adriaan Beddie teaching a dance class at his Tuam St studio.
PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER
Where did your passion
for dancing come from?
It really came from a love
of music. As a kid I loved
dressing up and if a song came
on, I just danced to it. And in
South Africa, when we have a
barbecue (a brai) we normally
have music playing in the
background and everybody
just dances; my family is quite
into dancing. None of them
are trained, but they love it.
I’m from a pretty big family –
my grandmother was one of
21 children – so a birthday
is also an excuse for a gettogether.
Tell me about your life in
South Africa.
I was born and raised in
Johannesburg in a family of
three boys, in small town
called Alberton. We didn’t
have a lot of money; we’d just go
to school and back so no money
for recreational things. It wasn’t
until I was 19 when I met one
of my ex-partners – he was a
manager at a dance studio and
that’s when it came to pass – I
was there every day and they
were like: “Hey, do you want to
dance?” They threw me in the
deep end and I started
teaching.
Wow, straight into teaching.
You must have had some
talent.
(Laughs) The only talent
I had was shaking my hips.
I wasn’t a big people person
because I was in the closet
back in the day – being gay
– but as soon as I came out, I
just became this other person
and fell in love with talking
to people. I think that’s where
the passion for teaching came
about, just being with people
and seeing the joy dancing
could bring them. I always say
teaching is my passion and I
use dance as a tool to connect
to people.
What bought you to
Christchurch?
One of my ex-partners, his
family lived in Ashburton and
we made the jump of coming
over. But it’s a small town
and if you don’t fit in it’s very
hard. They ran a newspaper
article on the gay boys in
town. It was like ‘whoa . . .’
We were supposed to live in
Christchurch but we landed
on February 24, 2011, just
after the earthquake so we
had to stay in Ashburton.
I had an insurance
background so I worked at
the EQC, but we used to
own a dance studio back in
Johannesburg with about six
staff and 200 people going
through the doors each month
so it was a pretty big dance
studio. When we came over
I started with very small
groups – but if you don’t fit in
and don’t feel the right vibes
it’s hard. So I went home and
came back in 2013 but things
didn’t really work out for us so
we went our separate ways. I
was planning to go back home
and then I met Richard and
he threw a spanner in the
works.

to connect with elderly
And now you’re married?
Yes I am, going on two years
in February – very happily
married. We have two cats, our
babies which we love to bits. We
live in Scarborough and I teach
at the Sumner Centre, the Mt
Pleasant Community Centre and
at my studio in town.
You must miss your family.
Have they been over to visit?
Yes, mum and dad came over
to the wedding last year – mum
complained about the weather
– even though it was February!
But we had some nice days and
then we had the Valentine’s Day
earthquake which scared them
a lot but they’ll definitely come
back which is great. The wedding
was held in Motukarara, a
place called Iris Gardens. It was
beautiful.
What do you like doing when
you’re not working?
I call myself a house executive
– I clean and do my own
training and do a bit of dancing
around the house. I try to
keep up-to-date with the latest
things, creating routines and
just spending time reading up
about different types of neurodegenerative
diseases to see how
dancing can help these people
with neurological problems.
Where did the idea of running
HAPPY COUPLE: Adriaan
and Richard Beddie on their
wedding day.
classes for Parkinson’s disease
sufferers come from?
Just before I met Richard I lived
with a lady called Molly, who is
one of my very good friends; she
was 93 and she was forced into a
rest home after she broke her foot
and couldn’t take care of herself.
You can see the decline in people
who don’t want to be there. So I
thought, maybe, I should put on a
dance class. Then I read up about
dancing and dementia and how
music brings out these memories.
One of Richard’s friends
who is involved in exercise as
medicine introduced me to a
rugby coach who was diagnosed
with Parkinson’s disease. He
also showed me a video about
Parkinson’s and how dancing
– because of the movement,
the change of direction and
the heart rate elevation – could
help them; not just on a daily
basis but also delay the disease’s
progress. So, I thought, yes, here’s
something I could do because I
love dancing and I love music. I
just have a knack for choosing the
right music that triggers certain
memories for people. We started
training together and I got hold
of the Parkinson’s Society and
talked with physiotherapists
who deal with Parkinson’s to see
how I could incorporate certain
movements into dancing. It has
been quite transformative.
It must be rewarding.
It’s quite astounding. When
you see someone with terrible
dyskinesia and they’re just all
over the place; then, when they
start moving to a waltz and just
forget about the steps and listen
to the music and the cues – it
dissipates, it disappears. And for
a moment in time, they’re free.
The name for my dance studio
‘Dance to be Free’ came about
from that.
You must feel like you’ve got
the best job in the world.
It’s not a job when you like
it! What’s the saying – if you
love what you do, you never
have to work a day in your life?
Beginners – who maybe don’t
get the steps after the first or
10th or the 20th time sometimes
say: “Oh Adriaan, don’t you get
irritated with us?” I’m like: ‘No, I
love it. As long as you’re smiling,
I’m happy.’
Do you ever get sore feet?
I sometimes teach nine hours
a day back-to-back so when I
get home – my husband’s really
great, he cooks the dinner
Tuesday-Thursday. I just feed
my face, jump in the shower and
go straight to bed. Our routine
in the morning is to get up and
do yoga together for 15min – I
can’t live without it and that’s our
special time together before we
head out.
Himalayan
mountaineer
Ed Cotter
passes away
ONE OF New Zealand’s best
known mountaineers, Edmund
(Ed) Cotter died in Sumner last
Thursday, aged 90.
Mr Cotter took part in the
first New Zealand Himalayan
expedition in 1951 with Sir
Edmund Hillary, two years
before Sir Edmund and Tenzing
Norgay became the first to
ascend Mt Everest.
The two were part of the
expedition, along with George
Lowe and Earle Riddiford,
Mr Cotter featured in the
Bay Harbour News in August
after a large ginger cat began
visiting residents at Edith
Cavell Rest Home in Sumner
- including Mr Cotter, who
became one of the cat’s favourites.
The ginger tom was nicknamed
Mandu, in Mr Cotter’s
honour, and was last month
adopted by Mr Cotter’s daughter
Jacqui.
Mr Cotter died peacefully at
Edith Cavell on October 19. A
funeral will be held at The Mc-
Faddens Centre, in St Albans,
Christchurch, at 1pm today.

Farmers meet
in Little River
to discuss
meat prices
ALLIANCE GROUP’S shareholder
farmers were told at a meeting in
Little River that lamb, sheep and
deer prices are likely to remain firm,
while cow and bull prices could
soften.
Heather Stacy, Alliance’s general
manager livestock and shareholder
services, said prime beef prices
should remain similar to last year at
$5-$5.40/kg early season and $4.80-
$5.20/kg post-Christmas.
However, she says bull and cow
prices are under pressure and softening
compared with last season.
These are projected to be about
$4.00-$5.00/kg early season and
$4.70-$5.00/kg post-Christmas.
She was outlining the forecasts
during the Banks Peninsula stop of
an annual roadshow in which senior
executives travel the country, updating
shareholders on the co-op’s
business.
“The influence of global supply
out of Brazil, the United States and
Australia is having a downward
draw on prices,” she told shareholders.
Farmers at the meeting were told
demand for venison is very strong,
but a risk exists that its high price
on restaurant menus will prompting
diners to substitute other meats.

DESIGN: A concept drawing showing the entrance to a proposed new shopping development on Marine Drive in Church Bay.
Questions raised over Church Bay complex
•From page 1
Diamond Harbour Community
Association secretary
Christine Turner said it had
given people the opportunity to
raise their concerns.
These included the look of
the buildings, noise and light
pollution, car park size, signage,
traffic, and whether there was
sufficient demand.
“When one man asked if we
needed a movie theatre – three
quarters of those in the hall said
‘yes.’ People also love the idea
of having petrol pumps. There
was concern over what would
go into the shops. People definitely
don’t want fast food and
they assured us that wouldn’t
happen. It could be offices or a
chemist.”
Ms Turner said the aesthetics
of the development were of primary
concern. “We don’t want a
concrete monstrosity.”
Although the community had
many questions, the general
feeling at the end of the meeting
was very positive, she said.
“James Hook explained everything
extremely well.”
Gaye Wood, who is in her
70s, spoke towards the end
of the meeting about how the
development would benefit
her and other older residents
in the area, gaining a round of
applause.
Ms Wood told the Bay Harbour
News she had moved to
Diamond Harbour two-and-ahalf
years ago, for the lifestyle.
“Half of the residents here are
over 50. If the development
goes ahead, it means I can stay
here longer.”
It was “inevitable” Diamond
Harbour would need additional
amenities as the population
continued to increase, she said.
Fire rages, homes at risk
Diamond Harbour is the
fastest growing community on
Banks Peninsula.
On the Spot store operators
James Grant and Laura Palmer
intend to run the supermarket,
although they are not associated
with the development.
Mr Grant agreed the meeting
had been very constructive.
“Every bit of feedback was taken
on board and the feedback (from
customers) in the store has been
overwhelmingly positive.”
A resource consent application
is expected to be lodged with the
city council next month.

PERMANENT:
A temporary
crossing point
at the corner
of Oxford and
Winchester Sts
may become
permanent.
Roading changes likely
• By Sarla Donovan
PROPOSED changes to bus
stops and parking in central
Lyttelton would result in
the loss of five parking
spaces.
The city council wants to
make the temporary pedestrian
crossing point at the
intersection of Oxford and
Winchester Sts permanent
and replace the two existing
bus stops on Winchester
and Oxford Sts, which are
positioned close together,
with a single bus stop
outside Lyttelton School on
Oxford St.
This is expected to
improve the sight lines
for pedestrians using the
zebra crossing on Oxford St
next to Sumner Rd, as the
current bus stop limits visibility,
the city council said.
New P3/P120 parking restrictions
are also proposed
outside Lyttelton School to
assist the pick-up/drop-off
for parents, and for daytime
visitors to the school and
surrounding area.
The proposals would
mean some on-street parking
being removed near
the Winchester St crossing,
north and south of the
proposed new Oxford St
bus stop and at the Oxford/
London St intersection.
No-stopping signs would
be installed instead.
The city council said the
no-stopping spaces would
improve visibility for pedestrians
crossing the roads,
and for passengers getting
on and off buses.
If the two existing bus
stops were removed, five
on-street parking spaces
would become available,
with three additional spaces
beside the Lyttelton School
playing field.
However, the proposed
new no-stopping signs
would mean five fewer car

several thousand visitors with face painting, puppet shows and horse riding, the steam train and
double-decker tram drawing in plenty of families.

PERFORMERS: Year 8 pupils Annelise Clark and Coby Jansen
made $63.90 busking which will go towards their school camp
fees. Riley Matla (above right) received a $500 Harvey Norman
voucher for his fundraising effort.
Pupils pay their own
way to school camp
• By Julia Evans
PARENTS FROM Heathcote
Valley School won’t have to empty
their wallets for this year’s school
camp.
The year 7 and 8 pupils have
been out in force busking, dog
walking, cleaning, hosting bake
sales and delivering copies of Bay
Harbour News to raise money to
cover their own camp fees.
The final stash has been tallied
and the 32 children have raised
$4400 between them.
Some pupils ended up with
more than they needed, which
was donated to the general fund
to help out any children who
hadn’t quite met their target.
For every $100 they earned, the
pupils were put into a draw to win
a $500 or $250 Harvey Norman
voucher, which the company donated.
Riley Malta took home first
prize and Mia Fenton, who was
away sick during the draw, won
the second prize.
Now they can look forward to
the camp and spending four days
at Peel Forest Eco Lodge learning
teamwork, self-management, confronting
self-doubt and learning
more about the environment.
The camp is often seen as the
highlight for the senior pupils
every year.

Diamond Harbour gardeners
judged a cut above the rest
DIAMOND Harbour School
took second in the national
Garden to Table school of the

It was the first year the
awards have taken place and
they attracted 70 entries
nationwide from children and
schools.
Judges included gardening
journalist Lynda Hallinan
and chef and restauranteur Al
Brown.
Garden to Table executive
officer Linda Taylor said the
judges were “blown away” by
the standard of applications
received.
“It’s fantastic to see such

enthusiasm for getting outside,
being active and learning
key skills that will see them
through life. All the judges
were incredibly impressed by
the drive children showed for
gardening,” she said.
Diamond Harbour School
programme co-ordinator Lisa
Hurry said the garden provided
jobs for everyone from muscle
work like moving compost and
cleaning out the chicken coop
to garden art, seed-sowing and
watering.
“This diversity allows everyone
to participate, creating a
sense of community within the
garden,” she said.

navigational safety officer
Gary Manch has some
simple tips to help you
keep safe on the water this
summer

Simple tips for keeping safe
Pirate’s Corner
BAY HARBOUR
PAGE 15
If you’ve been keeping up with
the news lately, you may have
noticed stories about the road
toll creeping up, in spite of the
efforts of regulatory authorities
to make our roads safer.
As I was thinking about this, it
came to mind that even though
motor vehicles and boats are
completely different, they have
one big similarity – they are
controlled by humans.
This, unfortunately, is the
reason we tend to have a lot of
incidents, both on the water and
off. Mechanical failure rarely
leads to injury or death – it’s
more often the behaviour of
drivers that is the problem.
When you think about it,
one moment of inattention or
carelessness on the water can
have disastrous consequences
not only for the operator – who
makes the mistake – but also for
the innocent victims who are out
enjoying the water.
As Environment Canterbury’s
navigation safety officer, I have
no control over what happens on
the roads but I do have the ability
to try to change behaviour on
our waterways.
As we head into the 2017/18
boating season, here are some
tips I would ask you to take on
board.
•First up, learn the boating
rules because the more clued up
you are, the more likely you are
to enjoy your day safely.
•Don’t drink alcohol until
you have returned to the shore
because alcohol can cause both
skippers and passengers to behave
recklessly.
•Ensure correctly-fitting lifejackets
are worn at all times on
the water because they may save
your life.
•Carry two forms of communication
that will work in the
area you are boating in.
•Last, but not least – be
courteous to other boaties, and
respect swimmers and divers
who are in the water nearby.
If you comply with these
simple requests we should have a
safe, incident-free summer.
Take care out there,
TECHNOLOGY:
Make sure your
boat has two
reliable forms of
communication.
WASTE: A working party has been reconvened to discuss
options for the disposal of Akaroa’s wastewater.
PHOTO: STEVE WILLIAMS
Wastewater group called on
to consider new information
THE AKAROA wastewater
management working party has
reconvened after more technical
information regarding the outfall
plan has come to light.
The Banks Peninsula
Community Board received a
report from city council staff,
saying the party has been
called back together after the
Environment Court granted an
extension for a decision on the
plans for Akaroa’s wastewater
outfall.
“It has become necessary to
reconvene this working party so
that board members, community
members and rūnanga
representatives can consider
options for the re-use of treated
wastewater in Akaroa,” the
report said. The working party
originally met from February
to April and agreed on a joint
statement regarding the disposal
of Akaroa’s wastewater before
the plan went out for broader
consultation.
The report said the objectives
of the working party included
assisting the city council to
investigate and consult on
options for wastewater disposal,
considering the solutions
presented by city council staff
and independent experts
and keeping the community
informed on the plan’s progress.

over four weekends in November.
Hidden gems for
peninsula walkers
FAMILIES, ARTISTS, botanists,
nature lovers, penguin lovers,
historians and geologists are in
for a treat at this year’s Banks
Peninsula Walking Festival .
Fire recovery is the November
festival’s theme and walkers will
get a chance to see the natural
regeneration that has occurred
in areas of Hinewai Reserve after
the huge fire in 2011, as well as
the major planting effort taking
place at Ohinetahi Reserve since
the Port Hills fire.
Several landowners are opening
their properties for the day,
giving walkers a chance to appreciate
the range of biodiversity
conservation taking place on the
peninsula.
There will also be a chance to
visit a remote area above Little
River, all the covenants in French
Farm, and a walk on the wildside
in Fishermens Bay.
Some popular favourites from
past years are running again
including grunts and dykes
exploring Panama Reserve with
Robin Burleigh, backyards of Lyttelton
with Sue Ellen Sandilands,
Takamatua waterfall and sketcha-walk.

Working on ambitious goals
Labour MP
for Port
Hills Ruth
Dyson says
the new
coalition is
set to hit
the ground
running
with an ambitious first 100
days programme
THE ELECTIONS in Germany
were held over the same
weekend as the election in New
Zealand, and the latest news
from there is that there may not
be a Government formed before
Christmas.
People in New Zealand were
getting frustrated at the length
of time it took to form our
Government but it was only a
fortnight after the final election
results were known. I guess that
we are still not used to MMP –
even though we have had this
system of voting for over 20
years.
But we now have a Government
formed – a Labour-led
Government with coalition
arrangements with NZ First and
a confidence and supply agreement
with the Green Party.
All three parties will have
Ministers, with Labour and NZ
First in Cabinet and Labour and
Green Party outside Cabinet.
So how will this work? Well,
for the last nine years, we have
had a National-led Government
with various support arrangements
and partners. The last few
years has had Act, United Future
and the Maori Party keeping
National’s majority in Parliament.
The arrangements are not
dissimilar now – just very different
parties and very different
policies. And I think it will work
very well.
Labour has set out an ambitious
100-day plan so after the
commencement of Parliament at
the beginning of November, we
are going to be very busy.
Free tertiary education (University
and Polytechnic) starts
on January 1, 2018, as does
increases to allowances. Rental
homes will be brought up to dry
SOIL
AND
Fire rages, homes at risk
and warm standard, and overseas
resident speculators won’t
be able to buy our homes. Sale
of state houses will stop, paid
parental leave will be increased
and we will restart contributions
into the NZ Superannuation
Fund. Work will start on the
clean-up of our rivers and lakes
and climate change targets set.
It’s big and ambitious – and
needs to be done – and we can
do it. Our two partners will have
ambitious goals too and we will
support them.
But for me, work on the mental
health and well being of our
residents is the most important
and pressing issue. We cannot
accept 10 attempted suicides a
day in our region. We cannot
accept that people are not able
to get help because of lack of
resources.
There are always many issues
to tackle but for me, that’s
number one. We will work hard
in this Government for a fairer
and kinder country. Thanks for
the opportunity to make this
happen.

Principal’s Report
Kia ora koutou. Talofa.
Kia Orana. Malo e
lelei. Bula. Fakaalofa
atu. Namaste and
Kumusta. Greetings to
our Community.
The content of this
page shows the busy
life of a NZ secondary
school. Education is
about seeing the whole person and how these
developmentally positive experiences enrich our
students’ understanding of whom they are and
broaden their outlook. They nurture students’
classroom focus by contextualising their learning
and sowing the seeds of positive ambition.
Linwood College believes in a ‘pathwayed
curriculum’. This means the school, students and
families knowing:
1. students’ past learning and skills as they come
into LC from our partner primary schools and
building on these successes
2. how the learning at LC connects to what the
students want to do when they leave school.
“What are my post-school pathways and how
does my LC learning help me to achieve these
pathways?”
In this way learning is meaningful to the individual
and strengths-based.
Coast to Coast Update
Article by The Press’ Robert van Royen
– Sept, 2017 (paraphrased)
Six Linwood College pupils are competing in the
Tough Mudder event alongside Richie McCaw
in Auckland in November, thanks to iSport
Foundation and Coast-to-Coast Rangers.
Linwood College’s Mapu Uasi, Moahengi
Ngauamo, Juilan Elia-Lui, Tupito Saofai and
Kyle Amer couldn't contain their excitement
when they heard the news that they would
be competing. They will all do the 20km mud
and obstacle course, which is designed to test
physical strength, stamina and mental grit.
Connected to these student pathways are the
national development of Kāhui Ako-Communities
of Learning. Education, unfortunately, can have
its share of short-term fads, but Kāhui Ako are
not one of them. In fact, effective schools and
communities have taking this approach for
decades. Kāhui Ako are schools collaborating
to ensure that the student is at the centre of all
activity, not just in the individual school that they
are in at the time, but as students progress in
education from early childhood centres through
their schooling to tertiary and the workplace.
Linwood College is in two Kāhui Ako. Tamai is
the schools of Bamford, Bromley, Linwood Ave,
Linwood College, Linwood North, Tamariki,
and Te Waka Unua. Aupaki is Heathcote Valley,
Linwood College, Lyttelton, Our Lady Star of
the Sea, Mt Pleasant, Redcliffs and Sumner.
One practical outcome already of our Kāhui Ako
has been a specific focus on enrichment with
students from our schools getting together
for very successful eight week enrichment
programmes in Maths, Debating, Pasifika and
with Technology to come.
Finally, schools can be complicated places. If
for any reason you would like to talk to me about
anything please contact the office so we can
arrange this. My door is open.
Ngamihinui – best wishes,
Richard Edmundson - Tumuaki (Principal)
McCaw's Foundation contacted Jess De Bont,
who is currently training the pupils for next year's
Coast-to-Coast and suggested the Tough Mudder
event to her.
"It's an amazing
opportunity –
once in a life time
stuff," she said.
“Auckland is a
really good lead
up for the Coastto-Coast,”
said
Jess De Bont.
Planting at Charlesworth Reserve
Linwood College’s Year 7 & 8 students did an awesome job during a day of
planting at Charlesworth Reserve according to Karla Guerin, the Kiwi Can
Coordinator from the Graeme Dingle Foundation.
Karla said that the planting day (late last term) was very hot and windy but
the students all persevered and gave it their best. She said that it was great
to see everyone fully engaged and work alongside each other with great
teamwork.
Cultural Festival
NZ Army Visit
College's Car Club
Linwood College students’ Car Club had a great
time at Ara Institute of Canterbury over Term 3,
learning about all things cars. Under the careful
guidance of Tutor Bernie Blanken, students
learnt how to change tyres, jump-start flat
batteries, strip down and rebuild a small fourstroke
engine, disassemble and reassemble a
gearbox as well as automotive welding.
Students thanked Bernie by buying him a big box
of chocolates at the end of the course.
Drama Review
Year 10’s mini production is going to

Masking Up
Part of the Year 9 Drama curriculum is to focus
on Drama technologies, so last term students
worked on Mask Making.
This is an important technology which has
links to Greek Theatre and Commedia
Del'Arte, both types of Drama which the
students will be researching when they get to
their NCEA studies.

'The Change Over' Review
As a Christchurch resident from the Eastern suburbs, the
movie ‘The Changeover’ is certainly well worth watching,
not just for its plot but for the visually striking scenes of
post-quake Christchurch. Aerial views show the lead
character’s home surrounded by a sea of vacant lots and
low-lying swampy stretches. Looking across to the city,
with randomly plonked containers and road works, these
scenes also tell part of our story. Linwood College is listed
on the credits as many of our students were acting extras.

Linwood College presented three cultural
dances at the 2017 Primary Schools’ Cultural
Festival. Filipino students performed a sacred
dance which was followed by a Samoan dance,
‘Do it, do it’ siva.
The final item was
a kapa haka and
song ‘Kapi-oi-oi’.
Our students made
us proud while
demonstrating
the rich cultural
diversity of our
College.
The New Zealand Army Band paid Linwood
College a visit late last term and provided a very

Bays’ fight to tournament final
SPORTS
• By Gordon Findlater
FERRYMEAD BAYS came
within a whisker of winning
the annual Coastal Spirit
under-19 tournament held at
Cuthberts Green over Labour
weekend.
The team dropped just one
game on their way to the final
before going down to Dunedin’s
Green Island 1-2 in the
tournament final.
Bays were unbeaten on the
opening day of the tournament.
They began with a 1-1 draw
with Waimak United before
defeating Coastal Spirit 3-0
and Hornby United 2-0.
On Sunday, Bays defeated
Selwyn 2-0 in their first game
of the day to book a spot in
semi-final.
Later that day, they played
Green Island in their final
pool game and went down 0-2.
With both teams already assured
of a semi-final spot, they
elected to rest key players.
Bays finished second in pool
B to set up a semi-final match
with pool A winner Dunedin
Technical.
Bays dominated the southerners
from the beginning and
quickly found themselves two

goals ahead. They rotated the
bench in the second half and
eventually won 4-0.
In Monday’s final against
Green Island, Bays found
themselves down 0-1 at the
half-time break after a dubious
penalty decision.
Bays coach Chris Murphy
said the team were unlucky to
not win a penalty of their own
midway through the second
half.
The game produced two
late goals with Green Island
all but killing off the match
with a second goal before
Bays scored a late consolation.
Bays’ mainland premier league
squad regular Sho Mathieson
was outstanding during the
tournament and took out the
MVP award.
“Mathieson’s experience
showed over the three days
and he was in another class to
a lot of the players he came up
against,” said Murphy.
The Bays coach also
highlighted the play of
15-year-old midfielder Mika
Rabuka who looks set to
become a MPL regular in
seasons to come.
DRIBBLING Bays’ midfielder
Mika Rabuka skipped through
the Hornby defence in their 2-0
win in pool play.
Early wickets
hurt Sumner
in loss to
Heathcote
THE LOSS of three quick wickets
early in their innings was too much
for Sumner to overcome as they
went down to Heathcote at the
weekend.
Sumner were defeated by five
wickets in the senior A one-day
match at Heathcote
Domain.
After setting the
hosts a total of 187,
Heathcote reached
it in the 41st over.
Sumner made a
fiery start and were
looking good at
40-1 before the loss of three quick
wickets had them at 41-4.
Captain Johnny Beveridge (above)
then steered the ship with a knock
of 63, recording his second half
century in as many matches.
His 71-run partnership with
Michael Newton-Vesty helped
restore the innings for Sumner
before the regular fall of wickets saw
them all out for 187 in the 43rd over.
Sumner picked up the early
wicket of Heathcote captain Matt
House before John Garry (45) and
Nick Durham (43) took Heathcote
close to the halfway point.
Matt Mealing then continued to
take Heathcote towards their target
with a knock of 55.

DO YOU NEED A
CHARTERED ACCOUNTANT?
It’s a common question.
Most clients are referred to chartered accountants by their existing
clients and professional / personal networks. Advertising may have
some effect - but generally it’s minor. The reason for this is that
the role of a chartered accountant is a very trusted one and like
all service roles is based on interpersonal relationships. Let’s face
it,you will be sharing your personal financial information with your
accountant, so you need to be able to trust them.
What is a Chartered Accountant? In reality anyone can
call themselves an accountant - you do not need to have any
qualifications or experience to work as an “accountant”. In contrast to
call yourself a Chartered Accountant you need to have a tertiary level
accountancy qualification, the correct types of work experience, pass
post graduate exams set by Chartered Accountants Australia / New
Zealand, meet on going professional development requirements and
meet ethical and technical standards. All client contact is bound by
confidentiality.
What does a Chartered Accountant do? Most people think
that accountants only prepare financial statements and tax returns.
That is referred to as Compliance in accountancy speak and does
form a part of the needs of most clients. The other part of the role
is usually termed as BAS or Business Advisory Services. BAS can
encompass a huge range of skills from Business Planning and Cash
flow Forecasting to Succession planning and Development of your
Businesses Core Values. BAS adds value to clients i.e. it can help make
their business and personal lives more successful, Compliance can be
seen as a requirement imposed by tax law so is often viewed in less
favourable terms.
Who Needs a Chartered Accountant? The majority of
salary and wage earners do not require an accountant as their tax
is deducted at source via the PAYE system. If you have other forms
of income that are not taxed at source such as business, rental or
investment income then you should consider using a Chartered
Accountant to assist you meeting your legal requirements and to help
you build success.
At Craig Roberts & Associates we have in excess of a decade
of experience with business success across Christchurch and
throughout New Zealand. We are a small firm who can give you the
time and commitment you need. We enjoy helping you and your
business grow and succeed.
