McCullough ‘chuffed’ with award<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

A TIRELESS worker for the<br />

rebuild of the Mt Pleasant<br />

Community Centre has been<br />

recognised with a civic award.<br />

Derek McCullough said he<br />

was “really chuffed” to have<br />

been recognised.<br />

“It’s such a nice feeling.<br />

Unexpected, but wonderful.”<br />

Wishing you all a<br />

Joyous & Alistair<br />

He was among 12 groups<br />

and individuals acknowledged<br />

for outstanding service to the<br />

community at a ceremony at the<br />

Arts Centre last week.<br />

The Friends of the Akaroa<br />

Museum was recognised for its<br />

commitment to preserving the<br />

past.<br />

The awards were presented<br />

by Mayor Lianne Dalziel.<br />

Mr McCullough was awarded<br />

for his two decades of involvement<br />

with the Mt Pleasant<br />

Memorial Community Centre<br />

and Residents Association and<br />

for the work he has put in since<br />

the earthquakes to get the centre<br />

back up and running.<br />

World Buskers Festival<br />

founder Jodi Wright nominated<br />

him for the award. The pair have<br />

known each other from the<br />

early 1990s when Ms Wright<br />

started the festival and Mr<br />

McCullough was getting his first<br />

Blues, Brews and BBQs event<br />

under way.<br />

He said it was particularly<br />

poignant to be recognised for his<br />

work after the earthquakes, as it<br />

had been a challenging time.<br />

FIREFIGHTERS on some parts<br />

of Banks Peninsula will have<br />

to manage with limited water<br />

supplies this summer, in spite of<br />

scorching temperatures.<br />

The Banks Peninsula<br />

Community Board last week<br />

had a briefing from Fire and<br />

Emergency New Zealand’s<br />

principal rural fire officer Darrin<br />

Woods on how FENZ will work in<br />

rural areas.<br />

The meeting was originally<br />

scheduled for February this year<br />

but that was overtaken by the Port<br />

Hills fire.<br />

Board member Tori Peden<br />

said she had been hoping for<br />

more specifics to come out of the<br />

meeting.<br />

“I expressed concerns about<br />

access to water in the Little River/<br />

Birdlings Flat area and was told<br />

things were in the pipeline, it was<br />

just a waiting game.”<br />

Little River firefighters<br />

and residents are worried<br />

property could be put at risk<br />

this summer after the city<br />

council took back an almost new<br />

water tanker when FENZ was<br />

created, swapping it for a smaller,<br />

slower vehicle.<br />

Sneaky bid to deter freedom campers<br />

Signs stolen so<br />

camper vans<br />

won’t park up<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

PEOPLE AGAINST freedom<br />

camping are taking the law into<br />

their own hands in a sneaky bid<br />

to thwart them from staying<br />

over night.<br />

Akaroa Police Senior<br />

Constable Anita Osborne said<br />

not all residents welcomed<br />

freedom campers to the area<br />

and some felt very strongly<br />

about the issue.<br />

But fully self-contained<br />

camper vans are legally able to<br />

park for two nights in threequarters<br />

of the streets around<br />

the area and people needed to<br />

find better ways to communicate<br />

their feelings than stealing signs,<br />

she said.<br />

Freedom camping signs in<br />

Akaroa Heritage Park and<br />

Ellangowan Reserve near<br />

Hickory <strong>Bay</strong> were targeted last<br />

Wednesday.<br />

One was stolen and another<br />

damaged. The signs show where<br />

and for how long self-contained<br />

camper vans can legally park.<br />

The vandalism follows an<br />

earlier incident last Monday<br />

on Banks Peninsula.<br />

when two freedom camping<br />

signs were taken from Selwyn<br />

Ave, Akaroa.<br />

Those signs were left on the<br />

Akaroa Police Station doorstep<br />

after Senior Constable Osborne<br />

used social media to call for<br />

their return.<br />

“I’m trying to drum in that<br />

there are lawful alternatives to<br />

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

THEFT: Camping signs like this have been stolen and<br />

damaged in Akaroa Heritage Park and Ellangowan Reserve<br />

make your voice heard,” she told<br />

<strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News.<br />

Her advice: “If you want to<br />

protest make a sign and stand<br />

on a corner. Or complain to the<br />

city council, and take part in<br />

community meetings and have<br />

some input. Be lawful. Because<br />

otherwise, you may end up at<br />

court.”<br />

She said larger vans weren’t a<br />

problem but some of the smaller<br />

ones, where the toilet was<br />

located beneath the mattress,<br />

weren’t very practical.<br />

She said people travelling in<br />

smaller vans often used public<br />

toilets instead, because it was<br />

difficult to access the toilet if a<br />

bed was on top.<br />

Rules around which vehicles<br />

qualified as ‘self-contained’ were<br />

tightened earlier this year after a<br />

review of the national standard<br />

for self containment of motor<br />

caravans and caravans.<br />

Motor Caravan Association<br />

national policy planning<br />

manager James Imlach said<br />

the tightening was in response<br />

to vehicles which complied<br />

with the technical wording of<br />

the standard – to have a toilet<br />

on-board – but not the intent,<br />

which was for people to use the<br />

toilet inside the vehicle.<br />

Under the new standard, a<br />

person must be able to use the<br />

toilet within the vehicle, even<br />

when the bed is made up.<br />

Mr Imlach said there were<br />

some vehicles on the road which<br />

were certified under the old<br />

standard (certification is given<br />

for four years) but they currently<br />

make up less than one per cent<br />

of motor homes registered in<br />

New Zealand.<br />

SECURITY CAMERA FUND<br />

A Givealittle page to help<br />

purchase and install surveillance<br />

cameras in Sumner has so far<br />

attracted $2215 from 35 donors.<br />

The group behind the cameras,<br />

Safer Sumner, was formed last<br />

month after a spate of aggravated<br />

burglaries in the area, including<br />

an armed intruder who was<br />

confronted by Emely van Ras<br />

HUNTER<br />

Chris Todd has just retired after teaching for 31 years at Christchurch<br />

Boys’ High School. The Sumner resident also has terminal cancer –<br />

shattering to most, Toddy, as she is affectionately known, is taking it in her<br />

stride. Julia Evans reports<br />

CHRIS TODD knew she had<br />

cancer before her doctor said the<br />

word.<br />

The Christchurch Boys’ High<br />

School maths and athletics<br />

teacher, known as Toddy, figured<br />

it out after being sent for blood<br />

tests and CT scans. From the<br />

stomach down, then from the<br />

neck down, then just in her liver.<br />

“I didn’t drink, I wasn’t<br />

overweight. There shouldn’t<br />

have been anything wrong,” she<br />

said.<br />

She was referred to an<br />

oncologist.<br />

“A little voice in my head said<br />

something wasn’t right . . . I<br />

hadn’t been told it was cancer<br />

but I was seeing an oncologist. I<br />

knew by that stage,” she said.<br />

It was on April 10, <strong>20</strong>14, when<br />

her doctor finally said she had a<br />

gastrointestinal neuroendocrine<br />

tumour.<br />

“I said, yeah, alright. I know<br />

. . . the doctor said start working<br />

on your bucket list.”<br />

She was told it had spread and<br />

she was terminal. There are 27<br />

tumours in her liver – she calls<br />

them The Fockers.<br />

The cancer is inoperable,<br />

it’s the same kind that Apple<br />

founder Steve Jobs died of in<br />

<strong>20</strong>11.<br />

“When I was told it was a<br />

rare form of cancer I said good.<br />

I wouldn’t want the garden<br />

variety,” Miss Todd said. “I<br />

went and told my friends, it is<br />

cancer but it’s no big deal. I can<br />

still remember the look on their<br />

faces.”<br />

She said she feels blessed that<br />

they can’t be operated on. “In my<br />

opinion, the less you’re cut open,<br />

the better.”<br />

Miss Todd has now retired<br />

after 31 years at CBHS, teaching<br />

maths and a time as head of<br />

sport.<br />

She said it was a difficult<br />

decision to make as the school<br />

had been her life since 1986. But<br />

she won’t really be leaving.<br />

“I’ve set up in my will for my<br />

money to go into a scholarship<br />

for boys’ high runners,” she<br />

said.<br />

Miss Todd’s entire estate will<br />

go towards helping athletic and<br />

multi-sport students attend<br />

events they might not otherwise<br />

afford, following her death.<br />

But since her diagnosis, the<br />

active Sumner resident has been<br />

doing everything in her power to<br />

finish her bucket list.<br />

Which has included several<br />

trips to cycle the Alpes d’Huez<br />

section of the Tour de France.<br />

Her oncologist said she would<br />

feel better just having coffee with<br />

her friends at home. But instead<br />

of heeding the advice, Miss Todd<br />

made it her mission.<br />

“I sent a photo of me at the top<br />

of the Alpes d’Huez. It’s in the<br />

waiting room of the clinic now,”<br />

she said.<br />

And she’s got plans to go back<br />

next year. “Hopefully, I’ll die<br />

coming off my bike on a hill in<br />

France.”<br />

Cycling is a relatively new thing<br />

for Miss Todd, she had competed<br />

solely as a runner until <strong>20</strong>08<br />

when she started riding.<br />

“Someone said don’t give<br />

Toddy a bike, she only knows<br />

how to run. It’s a bad idea to tell<br />

me I can’t do something.”<br />

A year later in <strong>20</strong>09 she was<br />

competing in the World Duathalon<br />

Championships in Concord,<br />

California. Then again the following<br />

year in Edinburgh, Scotland,<br />

and a further year in Gijon,<br />

Spain, where she came fourth in<br />

her age group.<br />

Even now she cycles for<br />

several hours a day on her<br />

stationary bicycle: “To spite The<br />

Fockers.”<br />

But Miss Todd’s first passion<br />

has always been running.<br />

She used to go on a two-hour<br />

run through the Port Hills every<br />

morning before cycling to CBHS<br />

via Governors <strong>Bay</strong> and the Sign<br />

of the Kiwi. The running stopped,<br />

not because of the cancer, but a<br />

botched hip replacement which<br />

she said was “harder to come to<br />

terms with than The Fockers.”<br />

“I’m a bit of a street fighter . . .<br />

if I’m told I can’t do something,<br />

I’ll do it . . . the cancer became<br />

another challenge,” Miss Todd<br />

said.<br />

More than $50,000 was raised<br />

for Miss Todd to be able to have<br />

radiation treatment in Melbourne,<br />

not funded through the<br />

New Zealand health system.<br />

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

challenge: Terminal cancer<br />

Although when she first asked<br />

to be referred to Melbourne’s<br />

PROOF: Chris Todd sent this<br />

photo of herself at the summit<br />

of the Alp D’Huez to her<br />

oncologist, who told her she<br />

wouldn’t make it.<br />

Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre,<br />

she was told she “wasn’t sick<br />

enough.”<br />

But Miss Todd wrote a PhDlike<br />

essay on all of the reasons she<br />

was suitable for the treatment. A<br />

month later she was having the<br />

first round.<br />

“I say to people it’s a bit like<br />

earthquake repairs. You’ve got to<br />

manage it yourself,” she said.<br />

The treatment stunted The<br />

Fockers’ growth, she said. The<br />

tumours haven’t grown in more<br />

than two years.<br />

Although Miss Todd said she’s<br />

fully aware they will “rear their<br />

heads again.” When they do, she’s<br />

going to have a massive party.<br />

“Terminal cancer really<br />

changes your attitude to life. The<br />

little things bother you less.”<br />

Until then she still has a few<br />

things to tick off that bucket list<br />

she was told to start: “I want to<br />

still be alive to ride the Sumner<br />

Rd again.”<br />

Surf advocate<br />

drops appeal<br />

against port<br />

THE SURFBREAK Protection<br />

Society has withdrawn its<br />

appeal against the Lyttelton Port<br />

Company’s plan to extend the<br />

harbour shipping channel.<br />

LPC has been granted resource<br />

consent to extend the existing<br />

channel, but SPS appealed<br />

the consent over concerns about<br />

local surf breaks.<br />

SPS spokesman Michael Gunson<br />

said yesterday it had resolved<br />

its concerns after LPC agreed to<br />

additional protective measures.<br />

These included the establishment<br />

of a surfing liaison group,<br />

regular surf reviews and a dedicated<br />

web-based camera system<br />

to monitor the Taylors Mistake<br />

surf break. The monitoring will<br />

be based on a system implemented<br />

by the Port of Otago.<br />

Te Runanga o Ngai Tahu,<br />

Te Hapu o Ngati Wheke, Te<br />

Runanga o Koukourarata and<br />

Ngai Tahu Fisheries have also<br />

lodged appeals against the<br />

consent.<br />

LPC chief executive Peter<br />

Davie said the company “remains<br />

focused” on working<br />

with the groups to resolve the<br />

issues.<br />

“Our house fell down so we<br />

were managing that at the same<br />

time as the rebuild of the centre,<br />

as well as looking after my<br />

mother and my in-laws who all<br />

had Alzheimer’s disease.”<br />

Taking a key role in fundraising,<br />

council liaison and as chairman,<br />

Mr McCullough helped<br />

oversee the transformation of the<br />

centre from a 1950s community<br />

hall to a modern, light and airy<br />

community centre which is oriented<br />

to look over the estuary.<br />

It’s a now a busy place, with up<br />

to 50 groups and classes using<br />

the spaces each week, as well as a<br />

dedicated cafe.<br />

Friends of Akaroa Museum<br />

was awarded for their ongoing<br />

support of Akaroa Museum and<br />

commitment to preserving the<br />

past and sharing the stories of<br />

Banks Peninsula’s history.<br />

Chairman David Miller said it<br />

was “gratifying” to be recognised<br />

by the city council.<br />

The group had taken on an<br />

advocacy role after earthquake<br />

damage caused the museum’s<br />

closure in <strong>20</strong>12.<br />

“We’ve been pushing (the city<br />

council) hard on the rejuvenation<br />

so this is a tremendous<br />

acknowledgement of the friends’<br />

work with them and the museum<br />

trust board.”<br />

Museums like Akaroa were<br />

RECOGNITION: Derek McCullough (centre) at the Civic Awards<br />

with Linwood Ward city councillor Yani Johanson and Mayor<br />

Lianne Dalziel.<br />

important because they reflected<br />

the local area and its history in<br />

a way that large museums can’t,<br />

said Dr Miller.<br />

“It’s a repository of voices of<br />

many former Akaroa residents.<br />

It houses items of local and national<br />

significance, reflects what’s<br />

been going on in the area for the<br />

last <strong>20</strong>0 years and is beloved by<br />

the community because it’s for<br />

the community.”<br />

Paying tribute to the award<br />

recipients, Ms Dalziel said their<br />

selflessness and generosity had<br />

not gone unnoticed and the city<br />

was grateful for their contribution.<br />

“It is the people in your community<br />

who want to see you<br />

or your organisation honoured<br />

in this way. The award is but a<br />

small token of the appreciation<br />

we have for the work you have<br />

done. People like you make our<br />

city and Banks Peninsula what<br />

they are. And you make us all<br />

proud.’’<br />

ENVIRONMENT: Some residents said the design of the proposed shopping<br />

No application yet for<br />

retail complex consent<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

DEVELOPERS have yet<br />

to lodge consent for a<br />

proposed retail complex in<br />

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

Spence Developments<br />

were to lodge a resource<br />

consent application with<br />

spokesman, planning<br />

consultant James Hook,<br />

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

on Friday that he was still<br />

waiting for instructions<br />

from the company.<br />

Community reaction<br />

to the look and size of the<br />

Marine Drive development<br />

– a supermarket and<br />

111-space car park, cafe,<br />

cinema and four shops –<br />

led to the project<br />

being pushed back<br />

a month.<br />

However, Mr<br />

Hook said in early<br />

November that a<br />

“revised site plan<br />

and elevations”<br />

would be released<br />

in mid-November<br />

and he was optimistic<br />

resource consent would be<br />

lodged before Christmas.<br />

TWO LARGE trees on the<br />

former Redcliffs School site<br />

could be in for the chop.<br />

City councillors voted in<br />

September to approve the sale of<br />

Redcliffs Park, Beachville Rd, to<br />

the Ministry of Education so the<br />

school could be built there.<br />

The former Redcliffs School<br />

site on Main Rd will be transferred<br />

to the city council to<br />

become a park. The Ministry will<br />

remove the current buildings.<br />

But the Redcliffs Residents<br />

Association is worried the trees<br />

– an oak and an elm – could be<br />

cut down at the same time as the<br />

buildings are removed.<br />

It asked the city council if<br />

the trees could be placed on the<br />

significant and notable trees<br />

register.<br />

But they were told the trees<br />

can’t be added because the register<br />

is full.<br />

Head of parks Brent Smith said<br />

there was “no intention at this<br />

stage” to add any more trees to<br />

the schedule of significant trees<br />

before the next District Plan<br />

review.<br />

That’s not likely to be for another<br />

10 years as the city has just<br />

completed a full review.<br />

He said that once the school<br />

grounds come under the control<br />

of the city council, a resource<br />

consent would be required to<br />

remove any trees over 10m.<br />

And during the demolition<br />

phase, the city council would ask<br />

for measures to protect “particular<br />

trees” but would not say if<br />

that would include the oak and<br />

the elm.<br />

Association secretary Pat McIntosh<br />

said she had seen one city<br />

council plan which suggested the<br />

trees would be cleared for playing<br />

fields.<br />

But Mr Smith said a detailed<br />

landscape plan for the site has<br />

not been developed yet.<br />

“There are a number of<br />

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

configurations of the sports fields<br />

that will fit in the space available<br />

and a number of them include<br />

retaining the large oak and<br />

elm in the centre of the school<br />

grounds.”<br />

Dr McIntosh said she wasn’t<br />

certain of the trees’ age but they<br />

“looked to be” around 60 years<br />

old.<br />

“We remain concerned about<br />

their future,” she said.<br />

MATURE pohutukawa,<br />

cabbage and lacebark trees<br />

were chopped up and have<br />

been left lying on the ground<br />

at a property on Sumner’s<br />

Esplanade.<br />

Nikki and Ron Twine’s<br />

110-year-old earthquakedamaged<br />

house was demolished<br />

more than two years ago, but<br />

contractors were careful to leave<br />

some of the mature trees on<br />

the section, including the three<br />

growing next to a boundary<br />

fence.<br />

The couple – who are living<br />

in Redcliffs while waiting to rebuild<br />

on the site – were shocked<br />

last week to discover someone<br />

had trespassed onto the property<br />

and cut down the three<br />

trees, as well as an established<br />

potato vine.<br />

The Twines had lived at the<br />

address for 21 years and the<br />

trees were 5-6m high and at<br />

least <strong>20</strong> years old.<br />

Trunks and branches were left<br />

lying on the ground.<br />

It was not until neighbours<br />

complained to the city council<br />

about the fire risk that they discovered<br />

what had happened.<br />

Police have said they can issue<br />

a trespass notice but need evidence<br />

to be able to do this.<br />

But Mrs Twine said she didn’t<br />

have any evidence and didn’t<br />

want to prosecute.<br />

“I just want people to have a<br />

conscience and think about how<br />

this might feel for us.”<br />

She said she didn’t know why<br />

people would want to cut the<br />

trees down, as they didn’t block<br />

views.<br />

WASTEWATER flows into<br />

Akaroa <strong>Harbour</strong> are much<br />

The city council has to apply<br />

line through Lyttelton Tunnel<br />

has been delayed.<br />

On-site work has been halted<br />

due to problems manufacturing<br />

the overseas-made pipe.<br />

New Zealand Transport<br />

Agency senior project<br />

extra discharge, Mr Moore said.<br />

“The Akaroa Wastewater<br />

Treatment Plant outfall is<br />

regularly monitored for the<br />

quality of the treated water<br />

discharged to harbour and the<br />

testing is not affected by flow.”<br />

The higher flow also means<br />

two further locations – Hickory<br />

<strong>Bay</strong> and Redcliffe Point – have<br />

been added to a list of suitable<br />

irrigation sites as part of a<br />

proposed future land-based<br />

disposal systems.<br />

Takamatua Valley, Robinsons<br />

<strong>Bay</strong> and Pompeys Pillar had<br />

already been short-listed.<br />

The city council is looking at<br />

options for recycling Akaroa’s<br />

wastewater before its consent<br />

to discharge into the harbour<br />

expires in <strong>20</strong><strong>20</strong>.<br />

TO A NEW LOCATION IN<br />

FERRYMEAD, DUE TO<br />

EARTHQUAKE REPAIRS<br />

Options include reusing the<br />

treated wastewater to irrigate<br />

manager Chris Collins said<br />

the wastewater pipe was being<br />

laid in conjunction with the<br />

tunnel’s new fire deluge system,<br />

as it provided “commercial and<br />

economic benefits” for the city<br />

council and NZTA.<br />

Mr Collins said the pipe had<br />

trees or pasture in nearby areas,<br />

or to provide non-drinking<br />

water for garden watering and<br />

toilet flushing in Akaroa.<br />

Deep well injection is<br />

another possible option being<br />

looked at.<br />

Mr Moore said the city<br />

council is investigating the<br />

technical feasibility of the<br />

practice and its use in other<br />

parts of the country “to<br />

determine if it is viable in this<br />

situation”.<br />

A hui was held with Ngai<br />

Tahu to discuss the idea last<br />

month and the city council is<br />

currently awaiting feedback<br />

from that.<br />

A final decision on which<br />

option to implement will be<br />

made in November after further<br />

consultation midway through<br />

next year.<br />

Plan to put pipe under Lyttelton Tunnel delayed<br />

He did not believe the delay<br />

would cause work to finish later<br />

than planned.<br />

“The last city council work<br />

package, the section from<br />

Heathcote tunnel portal to the<br />

pump station in Woolston, is not<br />

due for completion until <strong>20</strong>19, so<br />

there is no urgency around the<br />

installation of this pipe which<br />

cannot be commissioned<br />

until then anyway,” said Mr<br />

Collins.<br />

He was unsure if there would<br />

be any extra cost to the project as<br />

a result of the delay in getting the<br />

wastewater pipe.<br />

The rest of the project was<br />

proceeding “largely as planned”,<br />

he said.<br />

MERRY CHRISTMAS<br />

and a happy and safe holiday<br />

Ferrymead Rotary<br />

Club member Barbara<br />

Crooks writes about the<br />

organisation’s work at this<br />

time of year, including<br />

selling Christmas trees at<br />

Scott Park, Ferrymead, and<br />

Barnett Park, Redcliffs<br />

CHRISTMAS started early for<br />

Ferrymead Rotary – during<br />

August shoe boxes were filled<br />

with clothing, school equipment,<br />

toys, special things to love and<br />

personal hygiene items.<br />

These were given to Samaritan’s<br />

Purse which distributes the<br />

boxes to children in six countries<br />

– Fiji, Papua New Guinea,<br />

Vanuatu, Samoa, Vietnam,<br />

Thailand and Cambodia.<br />

Ferrymead Rotary’s boxes<br />

went to Fiji in time for Christmas.<br />

Last year, 8000 boxes were<br />

sent from the South Island, contributing<br />

to the 11 million boxes<br />

donated worldwide.<br />

Selling Christmas trees is<br />

also a long-standing tradition<br />

for Ferrymead Rotary – it has<br />

sold them every year since 1993.<br />

Members set up bright and early<br />

with trees freshly cut on the<br />

morning of the sale.<br />

After much looking, measuring,<br />

admiring and smelling of<br />

the pine trees, almost everyone<br />

leaves with the perfect tree for<br />

their house.<br />

FESTIVE: Buying a freshly<br />

cut Rotary Christmas tree is<br />

an annual tradition for some<br />

families.<br />

Christmas plum puddings<br />

were also on sale to benefit the<br />

local community and mobility<br />

dogs.<br />

A Christmas hamper was also<br />

put together for a family of five.<br />

Non-perishable groceries and<br />

presents were carefully selected<br />

with special attention to the<br />

individual preferences of the<br />

children.<br />

The Warehouse also collects<br />

toys donated from customers<br />

and these are delivered<br />

by Rotary members to Aviva<br />

Family Violence Services. Merry<br />

Christmas.<br />

CHAMPS: Heathcote celebrates after winning the metro A one-day competition by<br />

defeating Lancaster Park Addington.<br />

HEATHCOTE WILL head<br />

into the Christmas break in<br />

fine spirits after winning the<br />

metro A one-day cricket title<br />

on Sunday.<br />

They defeated Lancaster<br />

Park Addington by 38 runs<br />

at Heathcote Domain in an<br />

exciting final which saw a<br />

number of momentum shifts<br />

throughout the day.<br />

After winning the toss and<br />

electing to bat first, Heathcote<br />

found themselves in trouble<br />

early after openers Matt House<br />

and James Knight were both<br />

removed within four overs at<br />

5/2.<br />

LP Addington continued<br />

to take early wickets with<br />

Heathcote at 44/4 before three<br />

crucial partnerships helped<br />

steady the ship.<br />

Charles Grey (29) and<br />

Tommy Sturgess (45) combined<br />

for a 54-run fifth wicket<br />

partnership before Grey was<br />

dismissed in the 24th over.<br />

That bought wicket-keeper/<br />

batsman Jesse Ruwhiu to the<br />

crease who added a crucial 43<br />

runs.<br />

With the score at 179/8<br />

in the 40th over, Heathcote<br />

looked destined to be defending<br />

a total under <strong>20</strong>0.<br />

However, Craig Davenport<br />

provided a late flurry. The No<br />

10 smashed 32 – including<br />

three fours and a six – from<br />

21 deliveries to help the hosts<br />

post a respectable 223.<br />

LP Addington got away<br />

to a strong start in their run<br />

chase and were 40/0 in the<br />

seventh over. Heathcote then<br />

took three wickets for 28 runs<br />

to have LP Addington 68/3<br />

in the 18th over. A 41-run<br />

stand from Joseph Taylor and<br />

Ben Cochrane for the fourth<br />

wicket gave LP Addington a<br />

glimmer of hope. However,<br />

Heathcote’s ability to take<br />

wickets at a regular rate kept<br />

them in charge.<br />

They eventually dismissed<br />

the visitors for 185 in the 44th<br />

over. Shane McConnell (4/32)<br />

and Sturgess (3/46) were the<br />

best of the bowlers for Heathcote.<br />

Oliver Borrie also played<br />

a crucial role in restricting LP<br />

Addington, going for just 2.5<br />

runs per over to finish with<br />

1/<strong>20</strong> from eight overs.<br />

Short scorecard:<br />

Heathcote 223/10 (T<br />

Sturgess 45, J Ruwhiu 43;<br />

Scarborough playground upgrade<br />

The<br />

playground<br />

upgrade was<br />

given the<br />

go-ahead on<br />

Monday, much<br />

to the delight<br />

of Heathcote<br />

Ward city councillor Sara<br />

Templeton<br />

I HAVE fond memories of the<br />

Scarborough Park playground.<br />

Not only did I take my children<br />

there when they were younger,<br />

but my parents took me to play<br />

there when I was a child too. In<br />

fact, some of the equipment is so<br />

old that I actually swung on it<br />

40-plus years ago.<br />

Scarborough has always been<br />

a destination for the city and this<br />

small playground is in the top<br />

10 most used for Christchurch.<br />

Most of the equipment is at the<br />

end of its life, though, so I’m<br />

really pleased to see the upgrade<br />

finally get under way.<br />

The engagement with the community<br />

started in late <strong>20</strong>16 and<br />

while funding was briefly pushed<br />

out in the draft Annual Plan<br />

earlier this year, a very generous<br />

donation saw the project get back<br />

on track and it will be recognised<br />

with a plaque on site at the opening.<br />

Christchurch has signed up<br />

to become a Child and Youth<br />

Friendly City – part of an<br />

international network. As new<br />

facilities are developed and old<br />

ones renewed we are engaging<br />

much better with those who will<br />

be using them and, in this case,<br />

it involved working closely with<br />

children from Sumner to design<br />

a playground that they will love<br />

using.<br />

It has a mix of new equipment,<br />

such as the ‘eagles nest’, and natural<br />

play elements using sections<br />

of a tree that needs to be felled<br />

for health and safety reasons. It<br />

also has accessible equipment<br />

and a track designed for the kids’<br />

mode of choice for transport<br />

these days – scooters.<br />

One of the most loved pieces<br />

of play equipment in the current<br />

playground is the old rocking<br />

horse. There was a desire from<br />

the community to keep it and so<br />

it will be. It will be taken out and<br />

tidied up before being reinstalled<br />

as a static piece for play.<br />

It’s hard to visualise a new play<br />

area from a plan on paper, but<br />

I know it’s going to be fabulous<br />

and I can’t wait to see the faces<br />

of the children when it opens in<br />

time for next summer.<br />

PLAY: Scarborough<br />

playground will have a new<br />

mouse wheel but the old<br />

rocking horse will stay and<br />

get a face-lift.<br />

Lanes will be marked<br />

to separate cyclists and<br />

pedestrians on the Coastal<br />

Pathway.<br />

Vanessa McIntosh – I<br />

always thought the Coastal<br />

Pathway was for pedestrians<br />

only anyway.<br />

Cyclists still<br />

have their own<br />

exclusive lane<br />

on the roadway<br />

already. Why<br />

don’t the<br />

cyclists use that<br />

and leave the<br />

walkway to the<br />

pedestrians?<br />

Romy Forrer – The markings<br />

will just be ignored like the ones<br />

in Hagley Park. If everyone<br />

keeps left and is considerate of<br />

others (that includes adjusting<br />

speed and maybe moving over<br />

a little when someone is trying<br />

to get past), there won’t be a<br />

problem.<br />

Wendy Davie – It’s simple.<br />

Keep left when walking or<br />

biking, cyclists warn walkers<br />

on approach, and pass like you<br />

would in a car. I walk here often<br />

and have noticed both<br />

walkers and cyclists<br />

seem to have forgotten<br />

to keep left. If people<br />

used commonsense<br />

and courtesy then<br />

signs are not needed,<br />

but many seem to lack<br />

that in this “all about<br />

me” world.<br />

Sophie Jolliffe<br />

– All bikes should have bells.<br />

Ting ting, it’s simple and polite.<br />

Works in Berlin.<br />

Robert St-Denis – Coastal<br />

Pathway should be used by<br />

walkers and slow bike riders like<br />

mummy and daddy taking the<br />

kids for a stroll, grandma and<br />

grandad doing an afternoon ride<br />

or tourists doing continuous<br />

stop-and-go to take pictures of<br />

our lovely landscape. Bike paths<br />

on the road are for commuters<br />

that either travel to work or cycle<br />

at a higher speed than what is<br />

considered safe on a shared path.<br />

Mary Lovell-Smith – In<br />

Japan pedestrians and cyclists<br />

share most streets easily, on busy<br />

roads cyclists use the footpaths.<br />

It seems we just need a mindset<br />

change as much as anything.<br />

The speed limit on Dyers<br />

Pass Rd could be lowered<br />

to 60km/h<br />

Cathy Lum Webb – Definitely<br />

reduce speed around the<br />

hills. Currently there is a speed<br />

limit of 100km/h between Rapaki<br />

and Governors <strong>Bay</strong> and it’s super<br />

dangerous with many sharp<br />

bends. There are so many boy<br />

racers around the hills at night –<br />

it’s just asking for trouble – how<br />

can you pull them up on speed<br />

when it says 100km/h?<br />

Festive Season Survival Tips<br />

Healthy snacks are always popular<br />

Christmas is a time for celebration,<br />

spending time with friends and<br />

family and enjoying festive foods<br />

and drinks. Nutrition-wise, this<br />

festive fare can be a challenge.<br />

Here are some simple tips to help you<br />

survive the festivities:<br />

• Don’t try to lose weight over the festive<br />

season. With parties, families and all the<br />

special foods that go with Christmas, it’s<br />

going to be just about impossible! Your<br />

main aim should be to maintain your weight<br />

(using some of the tips below!)<br />

• Eat regular meals. If you skip meals you<br />

are more likely to fill up on high fat snacks.<br />

It only takes a few of these snacks to add<br />

up to more calories than your usual meal.<br />

• Avoid going to a function hungry, you<br />

can easily eat a lot of party food in a short<br />

time. Have a small snack beforehand like a<br />

bowl of cereal, yoghurt or a sandwich are<br />

quick and will help fill you up. It will also<br />

help if you are well hydrated, so try drinking<br />

a few glasses of water before you arrive.<br />

• Deep fried foods, crumbed and battered<br />

foods, cheese platter and nuts are all high in<br />

fat. Choose fruit, vegetable or bread based<br />

snacks.<br />

• If you are hosting the party, offer your<br />

guests a range of healthy snacks. Always<br />

popular are hummus or salsa dips with<br />

vegetable sticks.<br />

• If you are taking a plate, make yours a<br />

healthy option. How about a platter of fruit<br />

currently in season?<br />

• Listen to your body and stop eating<br />

when you feel full.<br />

• Just say ‘No” to food – mentally<br />

Be aware of how much you are actually drinking<br />

practice strategies to decline food offers. For<br />

example: “It looks amazing but I am full” or<br />

“I tried it and it was great”.<br />

• Chat and mingle. If you are bored at a<br />

party you’re more likely to hover around the<br />

food table or seek out the serving platter. A<br />

good conversation can distract you from the<br />

food. Avoid standing right beside the food<br />

table or bar while you’re talking.<br />

• Consider your drinks, they can add to<br />

the calorie count very quickly. Try diluting<br />

your alcoholic drinks, such as a spritzer<br />

(½ wine, ½ soda). If you prefer spirits,<br />

try a diet mixer. Lite beers are lower in<br />

calories and alcohol. Remember soft drinks,<br />

juices, punches, tonic water and flavoured<br />

mineral water can all have similar calories<br />

to alcoholic drinks.<br />

•Be aware of how much you are actually<br />

drinking. Alternate alcoholic drinks with<br />

glasses of water and non-alcoholic choices.<br />

• Keep active. Join in the Christmas<br />

backyard cricket game or go for a walk<br />

with friends or relatives. Remember you’re<br />

aiming for 30 minutes of physical activity<br />

each day.<br />

• If your regular exercise class stops over<br />

the Christmas break, plan other types of<br />

exercise - organise your friends and put a<br />

date in your diary.<br />

If you do really overdo the festive foods<br />

or drinks, take a deep breath and start the<br />

next day afresh with healthy foods and some<br />

exercise. No fasting - just sensible eating.<br />

Remember, a few parties don’t make you<br />

overweight, it’s what you do all the other<br />

days of the year which count.<br />
