AWOL: Santa is handcuffed in a scene from the film Kiwi Christmas. ​<br />

Governors <strong>Bay</strong> link<br />

with Santa movie<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

GOVERNORS BAY film director Tony<br />

Simpson has just finished making the<br />

world’s first Kiwi family Christmas<br />

movie.<br />

Kiwi Christmas has a special<br />

screening for friends and family at<br />

Hollywood Cinema in Sumner this<br />

Sunday before opening nationwide on<br />

<strong>November</strong> 30.<br />

The movie tells the story of how<br />

Santa, frustrated by the materialism of<br />

Christmas, goes ‘awol’ from the North<br />

Pole and crash lands at a camp ground<br />

in New Zealand where he is adopted by<br />

a camping family.<br />

Frustration<br />

grows over<br />

community<br />

centre<br />

repairs<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

HEATHCOTE Valley residents<br />

and the city council are at<br />

loggerheads over the $860,000<br />

repair to their local community<br />

centre.<br />

Heathcote Valley Community<br />

Association committee member<br />

Jackie Foulkes said the building<br />

was opened in December last<br />

year but it’s not warm enough.<br />

“The heating isn’t sufficient.<br />

There are only overhead heaters<br />

and it doesn’t warm up in the<br />

winter. It needs a timer or some<br />

heat pumps. People won’t want<br />

to hire the space out if it’s<br />

freezing cold. It’s not fit for<br />

purpose.”<br />

Mrs Foulkes said as well as poor<br />

heating, the wooden deck swells<br />

in winter when it is wet and the<br />

doors out onto the deck can’t be<br />

opened.<br />

She also said that if there<br />

are any more than two plugs<br />

being used at any one time in<br />

the kitchen, the power shorts<br />

out.<br />

“We’re really concerned that<br />

the building will soon be over a<br />

year old and at that point I don’t<br />

know if we will have any recourse.<br />

We really need to get it fit for<br />

purpose,” she said.<br />

FROM<br />

THE<br />

EDITOR’S<br />

DESK News..................................... 3-11<br />

GOOD NEWS on the bid by<br />

Governors <strong>Bay</strong> residents to have<br />

the Dyers Pass Rd speed limit<br />

lowered (see page 3).<br />

It’s been a while coming but<br />

after <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News articles,<br />

the city council has set the<br />

wheels turning for change.<br />

But it will take time.<br />

The city council has announced<br />

it will put the matter<br />

out for public consultation, look<br />

at the results of that consultation<br />

and, if the majority say yes<br />

to lowering the speed limit, it<br />

will then come into force.<br />

Consultation is the word<br />

that gets in the way of effecting<br />

change for the better in my<br />

view.<br />

There’s no problem with it<br />

depending on the situation,<br />

but do our public figures really<br />

need to consult on something<br />

like this issue?<br />

In a word: No.<br />

Speed limit may drop<br />

Progress on<br />

Dyers Pass Rd<br />

campaign<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

GOVERNORS BAY resident<br />

Rosie Belton is pleased the Dyers<br />

Pass Rd speed limits could be<br />

lowered to 60km/h.<br />

The well-known author has<br />

been a vocal campaigner on road<br />

safety issues,<br />

including<br />

speeding<br />

vehicles and<br />

boy racer<br />

activity in<br />

Governors<br />

Rosie Belton<br />

<strong>Bay</strong>.<br />

The city<br />

council<br />

is currently seeking public<br />

feedback on a proposal to<br />

change the speed limit on Dyers<br />

Pass Rd, from its intersection<br />

with Governors <strong>Bay</strong> Rd to the<br />

Sign of the Takahe.<br />

Currently the speed limit<br />

along that stretch of the road<br />

varies between 50km/h and<br />

100km/h.<br />

Under the proposal put<br />

forward the variable speed<br />

limits would be changed to<br />

one consistent speed limit of<br />

60km/h.<br />

Ms Belton said it was<br />

“fantastic” news. “That’ll be<br />

brilliant. But I expect lots of<br />

people will complain, including<br />

locals,” she said.<br />

About 180 accidents have been<br />

recorded over the past decade<br />

along that stretch of Dyers Pass<br />

Rd, resulting in one fatality and<br />

14 serious injuries.<br />

Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi<br />

“Loss of control due to<br />

inappropriate speeds into bends<br />

and risky overtaking account<br />

for a concerning number of the<br />

reported accidents,’’ said city<br />

council transport operations<br />

manager Aaron Haymes.<br />

“To improve safety we are<br />

proposing a new speed limit of<br />

60km/h. We are also proposing<br />

to add double yellow no passing<br />

lines and two new slow vehicle<br />

bays.’’<br />

Mr Haymes says the aim of<br />

DANGER:<br />

A lower<br />

speed<br />

limit is<br />

expected<br />

to reduce<br />

the<br />

number<br />

of crashes<br />

on Dyers<br />

Pass Rd.<br />

the double yellow lines was to<br />

keep motorists on their side of<br />

the road. Motorists are legally<br />

able to cross double yellow lines<br />

to pass cyclists if they are able to<br />

do so safely.<br />

ACCOMMODATION activities<br />

at a Sumner house are being<br />

investigated by the city council<br />

for the second time this year.<br />

The property at 58 Marriner<br />

St is owned by property investor<br />

Denis Harwood – a prominent<br />

objector to the proposed Levis<br />

skate park across the road.<br />

The city council has found<br />

potential non-compliances with<br />

the District Plan relating to<br />

short-term guest accommodation<br />

activities at the site.<br />

“We have provided guidance<br />

to the occupant in relation to<br />

District Plan requirements for<br />

these activities and we are currently<br />

working with the owner to<br />

achieve voluntary compliance,”<br />

city council head of regulatory<br />

compliance Tracey Weston said.<br />

In March this year, following<br />

complaints from residents,<br />

including two about noise, the<br />

city council shut down an illegal<br />

hostel being operated from the<br />

property by a tenant, Julian Bell.<br />

A resource consent is required<br />

if a property is to be run as a<br />

hostel.<br />

Mr Harwood said he had<br />

been out of the country for<br />

the past two months and had<br />

not been contacted by the city<br />

council about any non-compliant<br />

activity at the property.<br />

He said the house was managed<br />

by a property management<br />

company and it had not been in<br />

touch with any concerns.<br />

Residents spoken to at the<br />

property by <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News<br />

yesterday said there were three<br />

shared rooms with four to five<br />

beds in each and two private<br />

rooms.<br />

Robert Shulz from Germany<br />

had lived there for several<br />

months, along with seven others.<br />

He said he paid $130 a week for<br />

a bed in a shared room and enjoyed<br />

living at the property.<br />

He said the property wasn’t a<br />

hostel and he was not aware of<br />

any compliance problems.<br />

A woman who lives in a<br />

neighbouring property, who<br />

did not want to be named, told<br />

<strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News the current<br />

tenants “seemed pretty good”<br />

compared with some of the<br />

people who had lived at the<br />

property previously.<br />

In 2015, Mr Harwood argued<br />

strongly that the skate park<br />

should not go ahead on the<br />

Esplanade, because he planned<br />

to build a five-star apartment<br />

complex at 58 Marriner St and<br />

had concerns over noise and<br />

safety if there was a skate park<br />

opposite.<br />

The development, for which<br />

consent has yet to be lodged<br />

with the city council, is listed<br />

as an anchor project in the city<br />

council’s Sumner Village Centre<br />

Church <strong>Bay</strong><br />

road one lane<br />

until February<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

IT WILL be February before<br />

slip-damaged Marine Drive in<br />

Church <strong>Bay</strong> is restored back to<br />

two-lane traffic.<br />

A mother and daughter had a<br />

lucky escape after a landslide hit<br />

their home on September 2.<br />

The slip pushed a set of double<br />

garages down the hill, taking out<br />

part of the road and the house.<br />

Since that time, the road has<br />

been reduced to one lane.<br />

City council planning and delivery<br />

transport manager Lynette<br />

Ellis said contractors would start<br />

work before Christmas, with<br />

completion “anticipated” in late<br />

February.<br />

“Following the slip, geotechnical<br />

investigations and a detailed<br />

design for repairs was undertaken,<br />

and the works were tendered,”<br />

Ms Ellis said.<br />

The awarding of the tender was<br />

“imminent,” she said.<br />

Ms Ellis said the road would<br />

not be fully closed at any stage.<br />

“The intention is for the road<br />

to remain open at all times,<br />

however, it will be restricted to<br />

one way flow under the control of<br />

traffic lights, as it is at present.”<br />

Governors <strong>Bay</strong> link with Santa film<br />

•From page 1<br />

Meanwhile, the Coastguard<br />

think an illegal alien has come in<br />

to the country so they go under<br />

cover at the camp.<br />

The family has to save Santa<br />

from the Coastguard and then<br />

convince him to go back to the<br />

North Pole and complete his<br />

duties.<br />

Co-written with Andy Gunn<br />

(brother of Jason Gunn) Mr<br />

Simpson said the idea came<br />

during one of his own family’s<br />

Christmas camping trips to<br />

Totaranui in the Abel Tasman<br />

National Park, where his children<br />

wondered if Santa would be able<br />

to find them at the camp ground.<br />

Although it is not<br />

autobiographical, Mr Simpson<br />

said the film was quintessentially<br />

Kiwi, unlike most other<br />

Christmas movies which were set<br />

in the Northern Hemisphere.<br />

“Kiwi Christmas is our very<br />

own family Christmas film,” Mr<br />

Simpson told the <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

News.<br />

It has taken four years to<br />

make, which was a “fairly quick<br />

turnaround” for a feature film,<br />

he said.<br />

Both Mr Simpson and his<br />

editor Scott Flyger live in<br />

Governors <strong>Bay</strong>, which you might<br />

think would be a bit<br />

far from the filmmaking action.<br />

But he said the first couple of<br />

years were taken up with getting<br />

the script written and the finance<br />

and distribution organised.<br />

“You can live pretty much<br />

anywhere because you can do so<br />

much of that over the internet. I<br />

was away for about three months<br />

making the film in Auckland.<br />

What was good this time was<br />

that Scott happened to live in<br />

the bay and the sound editor<br />

Chris Sinclair has a studio in<br />

Christchurch. So I didn’t have to<br />

travel to do post production.’’<br />

Most of the cast and crew lived<br />

in Auckland so filming took<br />

place just north of Orewa Beach,<br />

with funding from the New<br />

Zealand Film Commission.<br />

Mr Simpson said he wanted to<br />

make a movie that would appeal<br />

to families around the world,<br />

and give kiwis the chance to see<br />

themselves on the big screen.<br />

“We’ll finally have something<br />

personal to watch at Christmas<br />

time and create a new family<br />

tradition with something that<br />

reflects the magic of that time of<br />

year, Kiwi-style.”<br />

It’s the second film Mr<br />

Simpson has made with Mr<br />

Gunn.<br />

The two worked together on<br />

2012s Kiwi Flyer, inspired by<br />

the Nelson Trolley Derby which<br />

was an institution in the Nelson<br />

community where Mr Simpson<br />

grew up.<br />

He shifted to Governors <strong>Bay</strong><br />

with his wife Helen nine years<br />

ago, just after their third child<br />

was born.<br />

“It’s a lovely community and<br />

I particularly like the dramatic<br />

landscape with the towering<br />

hillside and the ever-changing<br />

harbour.<br />

I’m looking forward to summer<br />

and getting the boat out and<br />

heading over to Quail Island.”<br />

•Kiwi Christmas opens<br />

nationwide on Thursday,<br />

said all “contractual<br />

remedied at the<br />

“City council staff<br />

Sara<br />

Templeton<br />

said the city council may<br />

have to remedy some of the<br />

issues.<br />

“It might be that the<br />

contractors have<br />

done what they’ve<br />

been asked but due<br />

to the design, it’s<br />

not fit for purpose.<br />

It may that the city<br />

council needs to do<br />

a few extra things<br />

to make sure that<br />

the building is fit<br />

for purpose. I’m<br />

working on that at the<br />

moment.”<br />

Frustration over centre repairs<br />

was possible some of the<br />

regarded as health and<br />

She said it was important<br />

to meet with city council<br />

Stonemasons start on Timeball<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

STONEMASONS will start<br />

work tomorrow on Lyttelton’s<br />

iconic Timeball Tower as its<br />

rebuild picks up pace.<br />

They will start installing the<br />

exterior stonework this week<br />

using stones from the original<br />

structure where possible, said<br />

Heritage New Zealand general<br />

manager Nick Chin.<br />

A small group of workers<br />

have been stationed at the<br />

Ferrymead site where the<br />

stones are stored, cleaning<br />

and preparing them for the<br />

stonemasons to use.<br />

Wellington firm Bosworth<br />

Stone won the contract for the<br />

stonework, which is expected<br />

to take until March to complete.<br />

Two stonemasons will be on<br />

site and will have helpers at<br />

various times.<br />

Meanwhile, the first<br />

concrete pour – up to the<br />

first floor of the reinforced<br />

concrete walls – will also take<br />

place this week.<br />

Mr Chin said everything is<br />

“on track and on budget” for<br />

an April completion date.<br />

The $2.8 million restoration<br />

project has been funded<br />

by a $1.3 million Lotteries<br />

grant; $1.1 million grant from<br />

charitable trust, Landmark;<br />

PROGRESS: Repairs to Lyttelton’s Timeball Tower are picking up pace, with stonemasons<br />

due to start work on the site tomorrow. The aim is to restore the tower which stood tall<br />

against the harbour hills before the February <strong>22</strong>, 2011, earthquake.<br />

and $325,000 from Stout<br />

Trust, Holcim Cement, Parkinson<br />

Memorial Trust and<br />

the Mainland Foundation,<br />

said Mr Chin. The insurance<br />

payout funded the demolition<br />

costs.<br />

Community members<br />

have driven the campaign to<br />

rebuild the landmark and they<br />

would be acknowledged and<br />

celebrated at an opening ceremony<br />

when the Timeball was<br />

completed. The landscaping<br />

will eventually be restored as<br />

much as possible to its original<br />

state, with new information<br />

boards on site which will display<br />

the Timeball’s history.<br />

It is one of only 15 left in the<br />

world and the only one to have<br />

undergone a post-earthquake<br />

restoration.<br />

When completed, the tower<br />

will once again overlook the<br />

harbour and township, with<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

the Timeball dropping at 1pm<br />

each day.<br />

•Hawkins Construction<br />

and Heritage New<br />

Zealand are sharing the<br />

cost of a time-lapse<br />

camera which is capturing<br />

progress of the build every<br />

10min from 6.30am to<br />

Redcliffs School farewells<br />

old site at Sunday carnival<br />

A CENTURY after it opened on<br />

Main Rd, Redcliffs School’s old<br />

campus will be farewelled this<br />

weekend.<br />

The school has permission<br />

from the Ministry of Education<br />

to hold its annual fair on the<br />

original Main Rd<br />

site in a “celebration<br />

of community<br />

spirit”.<br />

Principal Rose<br />

McInerney has<br />

put the call out to<br />

Rose<br />

McInerney<br />

past pupils, staff<br />

and the wider<br />

community to support<br />

the school in<br />

fundraising for the new campus,<br />

scheduled to open across the<br />

road at Redcliffs Park in 2019.<br />

“There are an extraordinary<br />

number of people who got in behind<br />

us and helped fight to keep<br />

our school open and return the<br />

school to its community. We’d<br />

like to invite everyone involved<br />

to come along and say goodbye<br />

to our old school site and buildings<br />

and celebrate new beginnings<br />

– a brand new Redcliffs<br />

School over the road in 2019,” Ms<br />

McInerney said.<br />

Redcliffs School opened in<br />

1907 following the construction<br />

of the causeway allowing electric<br />

trams through from the city.<br />

The first school fair was held<br />

at Easter in 1947 and the first<br />

spring fair was held in September<br />

1952, when funds were raised<br />

to purchase a typewriter for the<br />

school’s office.<br />

Ms McInerney said it was now<br />

Redcliffs School’s main fundraiser<br />

and a vital source of income.<br />

In preparation for the fair, volunteers<br />

have put in hundreds of<br />

hours tidying the school grounds<br />

and clearing and cleaning the old<br />

school site buildings, which have<br />

been vacant since 2011.<br />

Teams of volunteers have been<br />

dismantling, salvaging, selling<br />

off and donating the school’s<br />

fixtures and fittings to minimise<br />

FAIR TIME:<br />

The Redcliffs<br />

School Fair<br />

will be held<br />

on the old<br />

Main Rd site<br />

for the final<br />

time this<br />

weekend. ​<br />

waste ahead of its demolition.<br />

Two working bees have taken<br />

place, including preparation for<br />

a load of school equipment to be<br />

shipped to Vanuatu as part of a<br />

Pacific Pathways charity initiative.<br />

Organiser Zoe Fidler said the<br />

fair was one of the biggest in<br />

Christchurch, with more than<br />

5000 people expected to attend.<br />

“It is a fun-filled day for the<br />

whole family featuring carnival<br />

rides, white elephant stall,<br />

food stalls, good old-fashioned<br />

sideshows, crafts, plants, sweets,<br />

cakes, toys, clothes, books and<br />

more,” said Mrs Fidler.<br />

•The Redcliffs School Fair<br />

will be held on Sunday from<br />

11am-3pm.<br />

Council closes the book<br />

on bid to staff Sumner<br />

library over weekends<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

THE CITY council has been<br />

criticised for building a library<br />

in Sumner that it can’t afford to<br />

staff on weekends.<br />

The Linwood-Central-<br />

Heathcote Community Board<br />

has asked city council staff to<br />

investigate whether<br />

extended opening<br />

hours were possible<br />

after residents<br />

complained about<br />

its limited weekend<br />

times.<br />

The library is<br />

currently only<br />

open from 10am-<br />

1pm on Saturday<br />

and is closed on<br />

Sunday.<br />

But city council<br />

staff have advised<br />

board members<br />

that “owing to the current<br />

financial climate, libraries are<br />

unable to increase the level of<br />

service”.<br />

Sumner Residents’<br />

Association spokeswoman<br />

Kimberley Mossman said the<br />

city council should have built<br />

a cheaper library and ensured<br />

there was money left over to<br />

staff it adequately.<br />

It was frustrating the city<br />

council hadn’t gone for a<br />

“smaller, more affordable library<br />

and had more money in the<br />

kitty to staff it”, Ms Mossman<br />

said.<br />

Sumner Centre: Matukutuku<br />

Takotako cost $10<br />

million to build. As well<br />

as the library, it includes<br />

meeting rooms, a<br />

community hall and a<br />

museum.<br />

Heathcote Ward<br />

city councillor Sara<br />

Templeton said the<br />

board had asked city<br />

council staff to come<br />

back with some options,<br />

Kimberley<br />

but that was not what it<br />

Mossman had been given.<br />

“A simple ‘no’ is<br />

disappointing. I’m sure that<br />

with some more creative and<br />

out-of-the-box thinking, and<br />

community involvement, a<br />

solution can be found.”<br />

Cr Templeton said she would<br />

be raising the issue again at the<br />

board’s fortnightly meeting<br />

today.<br />

Our pre-Christmas exhibition is once again an allwoman<br />

gathering of multi-media artists. Whimsical<br />

takes on personal themes, each of these artists<br />

serve us their ‘Signature Dish’.<br />

The exhibition runs for three weeks finishing<br />

18th of December, giving plenty of time to wrap a<br />

Christmas gift for someone very special.<br />

Lisa Grennell’s work is whimsical, much like a<br />

child’s imagination. Designed to make the viewer<br />

smile and think of their own childhood,<br />

whilst questioning contemporary society<br />

and its impact on the environment. ‘The<br />

Simple Life’ is inspiration for this new<br />

work.<br />

Blanche Fryer’s work for this exhibition<br />

has been inspired by the anthropomorphic<br />

interpretation of the inner life of fish.<br />

“We hear of horse whisperers, canine<br />

communicators, mammal channelling,<br />

but you never hear of a yarn with a fish, excepting<br />

if there is a hook on the end. It has been really<br />

enjoyable creating these characters and also<br />

playing with a few different glazes.”<br />

Jane Downes pieces ‘Dwell’, a continuation of her<br />

body of work ‘Shelter’. Designed almost completely<br />

for function and the upholding of cultural values,<br />

offering shelter, protection and observation. These<br />

Lisa Grennell • Kara Burrowes • Blanche Fryer • Amy Hoedemakers • Jane Downes<br />

Main Rd, Little River | 03 325 1944<br />

works are also an exploration of form, pattern,<br />

scale and light, extending the work through the<br />

formation of shadows.<br />

Kara Burrowes explains her rationale – “I’m drawn<br />

to the layers and history of the urban environment;<br />

exposed walls, discarded objects. Often it’s the<br />

banal and mundane that sparks an idea, the<br />

concept of transforming something quite ordinary<br />

into something precious and alluring.”<br />

Blanche Fryer’s anthropomorphic interpretation<br />

of the inner life of fish.<br />

Amy Hoedemakers, “I used sketches from walking<br />

down the riverbed and words to begin with or<br />

as reference points. I wanted my work to have<br />

the feeling of looking into another world, of it<br />

stretching on, almost as though you could step into<br />

it but having an abstract quality at the same time.<br />

Predominantly I’m inspired by the natural world,<br />

painted in a mixture of sizes and formats in oils.”<br />

Call for more to be<br />

done on Beachville Rd<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

NOT ENOUGH is being<br />

done to tidy up the<br />

Beachville Rd esplanade,<br />

the Redcliffs Residents<br />

the unfinished landscaping<br />

and “unsightly” overgrown<br />

grass next to the new $4.6<br />

News published an article<br />

about the issue earlier<br />

this month city council<br />

contractors mowed the<br />

weed-ridden area a few<br />

days later.<br />

But Dr McIntosh says<br />

matters they raised in the<br />

letter to the city council<br />

still haven’t been addressed,<br />

including replacing<br />

damaged picnic tables<br />

and resowing bare patches<br />

of land.<br />

And the tables which<br />

were there previously were<br />

removed from the area<br />

during construction of the<br />

seawall and subsequently<br />

GONE: The Redcliffs Residents Association would<br />

like to see new picnic tables installed along the<br />

Beachville Rd esplanade to replace the broken ones<br />

which have been removed.<br />

damaged beyond repair.<br />

Dr McIntosh said she has<br />

asked the city council for<br />

replacements but was told<br />

it was up to the Coastal<br />

Pathway Group.<br />

However, they were short<br />

of money and had other<br />

priorities, she said.<br />

CPG chairman Scott<br />

applied for funds for<br />

replacement furniture but<br />

of freedom to experiment.<br />

“I haven’t any art background at<br />

all. What happened was I wanted<br />

some funky artwork for my house<br />

but couldn’t find anything which was<br />

large, vibrant and different enough<br />

to make my heart sing. So I decided<br />

to create it myself instead. Once I got<br />

started I couldn’t stop so my whole<br />

house ended up covered in artwork and<br />

over time people started asking me if I<br />

could teach my technique and if they<br />

could purchase<br />

a painting too.<br />

Learn lessons from passive resistance<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

The lessons<br />

of Parihaka<br />

are ones we<br />

should take<br />

forward with<br />

us as a nation,<br />

writes MP for<br />

Port Hills Ruth Dyson<br />

Every year on <strong>November</strong> 5<br />

there is a small but powerful<br />

gathering of people in the<br />

Lyttelton Rose Garden which<br />

surrounds the old Lyttelton<br />

jail, to commemorate Parihaka<br />

Day.<br />

This significant and dark day<br />

in our history is far more worthwhile<br />

commemorating than Guy<br />

Fawkes.<br />

On this day in 1881, there was<br />

an armed invasion by Crown<br />

troops and militia of the small<br />

Taranaki Māori settlement<br />

of Parihaka. Confronting the<br />

armed invasion on that day on<br />

the local marae, 2500 unarmed<br />

adults, including their leaders,<br />

the Christian pacifist prophets<br />

Te Whiti o Rongomai and Tohu<br />

Kakahi, sat waiting.<br />

The armed soldiers were<br />

made to walk past rows of singing<br />

children and past rows of<br />

hundreds of women, to where<br />

the men waited. The two leaders,<br />

along with 634 others, were<br />

arrested and led away. In spite of<br />

the extreme aggravation, no one<br />

responded with violence.<br />

In the days that followed, 1600<br />

people were forcibly dispersed,<br />

houses and crops were razed,<br />

women raped and animals<br />

slaughtered. The settlement of<br />

Parihaka was totally destroyed<br />

but there was still no violent<br />

resistance.<br />

In spite of not having lifted a<br />

finger to oppose the invasion, Te<br />

Whiti and Tohu were charged<br />

with sedition. Both were found<br />

guilty and sent to Addington<br />

Prison, where they served for 16<br />

months.<br />

Others were sent without trial<br />

to prisons in Wellington, Hokitika,<br />

Lyttelton, Ripapa Island in<br />

Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong> and Dunedin.<br />

Many did not survive the harsh<br />

conditions.<br />

This campaign of non-violent<br />

resistance preceded those of<br />

Gandhi and Martin Luther<br />

King and should be recognised<br />

internationally as amongst the<br />

first.<br />

We should start with recognition<br />

of these events in our own<br />

country. We are a small and<br />

comparatively young nation but<br />

many are totally ignorant of our<br />

own history.<br />

The lessons of Parihaka of<br />

passive resistance, peaceful<br />

non-violence and coexistence are<br />

lessons we should carry forward<br />

with us as a nation.<br />

JAILED: Quarantine buildings on Ripapa Island in Lyttelton<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> were used to imprison members of the Taranaki Maori<br />

settlement of Parihaka. ​<br />

Paid parental leave needs<br />

to evolve and be flexible<br />

National List<br />

MP Nuk Korako<br />

questions<br />

whether paid<br />

parental leave<br />

is flexible<br />

enough for<br />

parents in the<br />

community<br />

Who might be affected by<br />

changes to paid parental leave in<br />

the local area? Working parents<br />

with newborns and young<br />

children and local businesses.<br />

There are so many challenges<br />

when we arrive home with our<br />

gorgeous little bundle of baby.<br />

It can be bewildering to say the<br />

least and without flexibility the<br />

people in our community who<br />

have the least ability to take time<br />

off from work will be the most<br />

affected.<br />

The Government plans to<br />

extend paid parental leave to <strong>22</strong><br />

weeks from July 1, 2018, with an<br />

increase to 26 weeks from July 1,<br />

2020. I am very happy with the<br />

extension to <strong>22</strong> weeks for our local<br />

families.<br />

The National Party extended<br />

paid parental leave from 15 to 18<br />

weeks with the intention to continue<br />

to extend PPL to <strong>22</strong> weeks<br />

as it is good for families.<br />

What I am concerned about<br />

is the missed opportunity by<br />

this Government to seek public<br />

consultation from people in our<br />

Port Hills electorate, even though<br />

it has seven months until it comes<br />

into effect.<br />

I would like to see more<br />

flexibility so that families who<br />

may not have the means or the<br />

ability to take leave at the same<br />

time, can do so as they should<br />

have the same rights as the<br />

people who do have the means to<br />

do so.<br />

Having four children, my wife<br />

Chris and I have discussed this at<br />

length and I share the same view<br />

as Chris and those local people<br />

I’ve spoken to, and that is that<br />

PPL is an important opportunity<br />

for New Zealand families but it<br />

needs to continue to evolve as<br />

there are situations that require<br />

two parents to be at home.<br />

Two good examples highlighted<br />

to me by locals are not being able<br />

to drive for up to six weeks after<br />

a caesarean birth and post natal<br />

depression.<br />

I believe that it is critical to<br />

support parents in our community<br />

in those early months and I<br />

acknowledge that there are situations<br />

that require two parents to<br />

be at home, so it is vital that there<br />

is flexibility to address that.<br />

PPL is a great opportunity<br />

for New Zealand families and it<br />

needs to continue to evolve with<br />

more consideration and public<br />

feedback.<br />

We said:<br />

Banks Peninsula<br />

Community Board members<br />

have been told almost half<br />

of freedom campers don’t<br />

pay their fines<br />

You said:<br />

Sam Stoner – Same as<br />

any fine. Give it to someone<br />

from another country they’ll<br />

just go home and never pay it.<br />

Make them pay then and there<br />

or all their stuff gets<br />

impounded.<br />

Pete Hustwick – It’s all<br />

really quite simple. You clamp<br />

them. And when the fine is paid<br />

in full in cash, then they can get<br />

under way again. It would only<br />

take a few for the word to get<br />

around. We are way too nice in<br />

this country.<br />

Candice Johnson<br />

– Passport information should<br />

be taken, and should be flagged<br />

if they try and leave without<br />

paying. Tourists are having a<br />

laugh at how soft NZ is.<br />

Tiffany Cavanaugh –We<br />

can’t leave the country without<br />

paying our fines, tourists<br />

shouldn’t be able to either.<br />

Carl de Malmanche – How<br />

stupid bureaucratic NZ is that<br />

they even thought they would.<br />

These are foreigners, not Kiwis.<br />

When they walk away they don’t<br />

have to look back. They travel<br />

through countries with much<br />

harsher and stricter rules so NZ<br />

is such a milksop compared to<br />

what they’re used to. How many<br />

other countries would be stupid<br />

enough to expect foreigners to<br />

pay when they can just exit out<br />

of their jurisdiction.<br />

Sumner’s next generation on track<br />

SPORTS<br />

SUMNER Running Club’s<br />

juniors competed in the<br />

quadrathon and ribbon meeting<br />

at Rawhiti Domain on Saturday.<br />

The quadrathon saw grade<br />

10-14 athletes compete in four<br />

disciplines across sprinting,<br />

distance running, jumping and<br />

throwing events.<br />

The grade 7-9 ribbon event was<br />

a great chance for some of the<br />

younger athletes to competing in<br />

long jump and sprinting.<br />

Maddie Sharpe, 12, Jorja<br />

Williams, 12, Aaron Clarke, 12,<br />

and Benita Clarke all took part<br />

in the quadrathon.<br />

Meanwhile, Ruby Love-Smith<br />

and brother, Leo, started<br />

their first season with Sumner<br />

by competing in the ribbon<br />

events.<br />

Aaron Clarke looked<br />

determined during the 800m,<br />

while Benita Clarke bolted<br />

away from the starting block<br />

in the 200m.<br />

Jorja Williams leaped<br />

into action in the 200m.<br />

Ruby Love-Smith and her brother, Leo, were all smiles with<br />

their ribbons.<br />

Heathcote bowlers blast Sumner to stay top of one-day table<br />

• By Gordon Findlater<br />

HEATHCOTE have maintained<br />

their lead at the top of the Metro<br />

A one-day cricket competition<br />

with a commanding six-wicket<br />

victory over Sumner at St<br />

Leonards Square on Saturday.<br />

Sumner batted first on their<br />

home wicket, knowing a decent<br />

total would be needed against<br />

the competition’s leader, who<br />

haven’t scored less than 160 in<br />

an innings this season.<br />

Heathcote’s pace attack struck<br />

early with Tommy Sturgess and<br />

James Knight removing Tom<br />

Gooday, 12, Ethan Vickery, 2,<br />

and Michael Newton-Vesty, 0, in<br />

the opening 10 overs.<br />

Struggling early at 20/3,<br />

Sumner steadied the ship with<br />

David Rees and captain Johnny<br />

Beveridge putting on a 38-run<br />

partnership before three wickets<br />

fell for just three runs.<br />

Heathcote then did enough<br />

to stop the Sumner tail from<br />

wagging, eventually dismissing<br />

the hosts for 101 in the 36th<br />

over.<br />

Sturgess and Knight were the<br />

best of the Heathcote bowlers,<br />

finishing with three wickets<br />

each.<br />

In reply, Heathcote suffered a<br />

hiccup early on when Sturgess<br />

was caught off the bowling of<br />

Gooday for a duck in the first<br />

over.<br />

Dann Vann and Andrew<br />

Bird also claimed wickets for<br />

Sumner.<br />

However, their first innings<br />

total was never going to be<br />

enough, and Heathcote reached<br />

the total in the 24th over to<br />

secure a four wicket victory.<br />

•Round nine on Saturday<br />

will see Heathcote take<br />

on Halswell at Halswell<br />

Domain, and Sumner<br />

take on Lancaster Park<br />

Addington at Ilam Fields.<br />

“ IT’S A RELAXED<br />

WAY OF LIFE.”<br />

“No lawns to mow or leaves to pick up.”<br />

Joyce and Lloyd have a beautiful garden and<br />

enjoy a relaxed lifestyle with a great sense of<br />

community and security. Lloyd says he sees as<br />

many people in a day at Summerset as he would<br />

have seen in a month outside their last home.<br />

He also really enjoys not having the burden of<br />

continuous maintenance.<br />

They’ve been enjoying their villa at their<br />

Summerset retirement village for just over<br />

nine years.<br />

And there’s an added bonus says Joyce, “Our<br />

family couldn’t be happier, because they know<br />

we’re looked after.”<br />

Come and see why we<br />

love the life at Summerset<br />

PUPILS FROM Our Lady Star of<br />

the Sea School in Sumner had a visit<br />

to the Canterbury A&P Show last<br />

Wednesday, with the whole school<br />

travelling by bus to Canterbury<br />

Agricultural Park for the day. Year 2<br />

to 4 teacher Maree Cooper organised<br />

the trip along with staff and parents<br />

who helped make the visit to the show<br />

a great success. Principal John Kane<br />

said the children were “beautifully<br />

behaved” throughout the day.<br />

The new entrant class<br />

at Our Lady Star of the<br />

Sea School recently<br />

made a scarecrow to<br />

protect the vegetables<br />

in the St Francis<br />

garden from greedy<br />

birds. They made a<br />

head out of straw, cut<br />

up an old pair of jeans<br />

for him to wear and<br />

gave him a sunhat to<br />

protect him from the<br />

sun. To date no birds<br />

have been seen in or<br />

around the garden.<br />

HEALTH & BEAUTY<br />

Love your dentures<br />

Is it time to swap your generic denture appearance<br />

for a beautiful, natural looking smile?<br />

Internationally renowned dental<br />

technician Richard Greenlees,<br />

PGDipCDTech (University of Otago) of<br />

Lovebite is the person to call.<br />

His special point of difference is<br />

rebuilding what he calls the Oral<br />

Architecture, the structure and shape of<br />

a patient’s face that is often lost following<br />

years of wearing dentures.<br />

Lovebite dentures address problems<br />

that can arise due to years of the patient<br />

wearing incorrectly fitting or poorly<br />

functioning dentures, such as poor<br />

occlusion (the way the teeth come<br />

together), aesthetics, function and<br />

hygiene.<br />

An intricate knowledge and<br />

understanding of facial features allows<br />

Richard to return facial tissues back to the<br />

correct position, reform lips, and restore<br />

beauty and confidence.<br />

Richard provides a friendly, discreet<br />

service and personally guides his patients<br />

through the transformation process to<br />

create teeth with small nuances in the<br />

fabrication, colour and shape.<br />

Carmen, a recent patient said in a<br />

thank you letter to Richard, “I highly<br />

recommend your craftsmanship to anyone<br />

wanting a natural looking smile. Because<br />

you do your work in front of your client,<br />

one is able to see how meticulous and<br />

dedicated you are to ending up with a top<br />

class result. My dentures are amazing.<br />

They look like one’s own natural teeth. So<br />

much time, effort and energy went into<br />

the end result. Simply the best.”<br />

Richard’s patients have varying needs,<br />

from full denture replacement, to first<br />

time immediate dentures, implant<br />

supported dentures and metal partial<br />

dentures.<br />

Since he started making teeth in<br />

1980 Richard has travelled extensively,<br />

accumulating vast knowledge through<br />

training and working in Japan, and<br />

running his own practice in the<br />

prestigious Harley Street, London for 15<br />

years. He continues to teach his world<br />

leading techniques globally.<br />

Richard also creates porcelain crowns<br />

and veneers, working with like-minded<br />

dental professionals.<br />

A beautiful new Lovebite smile<br />

resembles nature and reflects the patient’s<br />

character. It boosts confidence and helps<br />

patients to look and feel years younger.<br />

To learn more and to view a gallery<br />

of stunning Lovebite dentures, visit<br />

BEFORE<br />

AFTER<br />

These before and after photographs<br />

perfectly highlight the facial<br />

rejuvenation that can be achieved<br />

with a Lovebite denture (right).<br />

The patient’s facial structure and<br />

shape have been restored, with her<br />

beautiful new smile transforming<br />

the way she looks and feels.<br />

STUNNING: A beautiful new denture for<br />

a young female patient<br />

These stunning lovebite full upper and<br />

lower dentures have been expertly crafted by<br />

internationally-recognised dental technician<br />

Richard Greenlees at his Christchurch studio.<br />

The combination of Richard’s skill, experience<br />

(including 15 years in London’s prestigious<br />

Harley Street) knowledge and revolutionary<br />

techniques allow him to create beautiful<br />

bespoke false teeth that truly resemble those<br />

in nature and reflect each patient’s individuality<br />

and unique character.<br />
