A ST Martins 12-year-old has<br />
taken out a Glenorchy fishing<br />
competition.<br />
Sophie Hickey recently reeled<br />
in a 1.7kg brown trout at the Lake<br />
Wakatipu event.<br />
She was one of 147 people to<br />
enter the competition but caught<br />
the winning fish off the Glenorchy<br />
pier.<br />
To catch the trout Sophie used<br />
huhu grubs for bait.<br />
Sophie used to live in Glenorchy<br />
before moving to St Martins.<br />
The event was held to raise<br />
money for the Glenorchy Volunteer<br />
Rural Fire Force and they<br />
raised $2000.<br />

Award funds artist’s next project<br />
AN ADDINGTON artist has<br />
been honoured with an award<br />
to support his next project.<br />
Daegan Wells is the winner of<br />
the 2017 Olivia Spencer Bower<br />
Foundation Art Award. He was<br />
selected as the winner from<br />
more than 40 applicants.<br />
The award offers financial<br />
assistance to artists so Mr Wells<br />
will be able to focus solely on<br />
his latest art project for a year<br />
without having to rely on another<br />
job to provide his income.<br />
Starting next year, Mr Wells<br />
will start a new research project,<br />
which will address a specific<br />
period in Christchurch’s art history<br />
– 1932-1939.<br />
He has previously been<br />
observing, researching, and<br />
collecting artefacts from the<br />
residential red zone for several<br />
years.<br />
Double award winner<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
WINNING A regional<br />
leadership award was not<br />
enough for one Cashmere<br />
resident – so she won a national<br />
award as well.<br />
Pieta McAleer-Harding won<br />
the Ministry of Youth Development<br />
Regional Award and New<br />
Zealand National Award of Excellence<br />
for Student Leadership<br />
after she was nominated by her<br />
fellow competitors.<br />
She was part of the Christchurch<br />
girls and boys’ high school<br />
combined stage challenge team<br />
which presented their entry,<br />
You Shouldn’t Put A Price On<br />
Humanity, in May.<br />
“I felt really honoured to<br />
be given the opportunity and<br />
recognised as a leader,” Miss<br />
McAleer-Harding said.<br />
She has two older sisters who<br />
she followed to Christchurch<br />
Girls’ High. One is now in retail<br />
and the other is studying.<br />
She thanked her parents, particularly<br />
her dad.<br />
“My dad is amazing, he helped<br />
me through the music, costumes<br />
and the set. And my mum supports<br />
me in anything I do. They<br />
are both amazing,” she said.<br />
The year 13 student will head<br />
to Victoria University next year<br />
to study architecture.<br />
She said the award will not<br />
hurt her chances of getting in.<br />
“I really like Wellington city<br />
and I am excited to move there.”<br />
