Avenue
residents
may get
wish for no
more trucks
• By Emily O’Connell
AFTER MONTHS of being woken
by passing trucks in the early
hours, Lodestar Ave residents are
hopeful a new citywide bylaw will
give them some peace and quiet.
The Traffic and Parking Bylaw
2017, which will give the city council
the ability to restrict heavy vehicles
on certain roads, was approved
by councillors on Thursday.
Now Halswell Ward city councillor
Anne Galloway is pushing for
heavy vehicle restrictions to be
placed on Lodestar Ave.
She said the restriction would be
put on the avenue in mid-2018 if
city council staff approved it.
“Such a decision would be the
outcome of a technical assessment
and public consultation, which has
not yet occurred,” Cr Galloway
said.
A resident at Lady Wigram
Retirement Village on Lodestar
Ave was very pleased it had been
approved.
“We are waiting in hope,” he
said.
On Thursday, Cr Galloway
asked a city council staff member
whether the new bylaw would be
applicable to Lodestar Ave.

WHAT A terrific fight Rose Williams (page
3) had put up against fast food giant Wendy’s.
Her battle will see Wendy’s staff across New
Zealand backpaid for owed days in lieu.
Rose took her case Ministry of Business,
Innovation and Employment claiming Wendy’s were not honouring
their lieu day committments.
And she’s won. It will mean Wendy’s staff across the country will
share in about $1.6 million in owed pay.
Rose is no stranger to adversity – her husband Murray was killed
in a speedway crash, and she’s had to work hard to keep her
household going. Great stuff Rose.

Fast food worker wins lieu day battle
• By Emily O’Connell
A WOMAN has won a threeyear
battle with a fast food
company to ensure employees
across the country get their days
in lieu.
Wendy’s, which has 23 outlets
in New Zealand, including one
in Hereford St and in Hornby,
has breached two sections of the
Holidays Act 2003.
Wendy’s employee Rose
Williams went to the Ministry
of Business, Innovation and
Employment three years ago
with the lieu day issue after she
had been working at the Hornby
restaurant for a year.
Mrs Williams said Wendy’s
staff were not being given a lieu
day after working on a public
holiday. She told Southern View
it feels “pretty good” to win the
case.
Unite Union, of which
Mrs Williams is a delegate,
has estimated it would cost
Wendy’s $1.6 million to pay back
employees’ leiu days.
MBIE senior labour inspector
Kim Baldwin found Wendy’s
breached section 56 and 60 of
the Holidays Act.
Section 56 says an alternative
holiday must be provided to
an employee who works on a
RIGHTS: Rose Williams has won a three-year battle against
Wendy’s to give employees days in lieu when they work a
public holiday.

public holiday if that day would
otherwise have been a working
day for them.
Section 60 sets out how those
employees should be paid for the
alternative holiday.
Wendy’s has been ordered
to comply with the two
sections, conduct a review of its
restaurants and keep records of
staff contacted, rosters and leave.
It has been ordered to give
all past and present employees
from the Hornby and Dunedin
restaurants their alternative
holidays, or the equivalent
pay since the restaurants were
opened.
Wendy’s has also been ordered
to do the same for all other
restaurants across the country
backdated to July 1, 2012.
Unite Union national secretary
Gerard Hehir said it was “very
happy” with the result.
“We think it has significance
beyond our dispute with
Wendy’s actually,” he said.
Mr Hehir said it’s hard to
establish what would be a
person’s normal working day
in hospitality because of their
variable shift work.
“The problem we have with
Wendy’s is they said no-one was
entitled to one [an alternative
holiday] at all, because hours
changed occasionally,” Mr Hehir
said.
He admired how tenacious
Mrs Williams was throughout
the trial. Mrs Williams left a job
at Countdown to raise her son
Josh after her husband Murray
died in a speedway crash 14
years ago. She said her late
husband was racing a sidecar
at Ruapuna Speedway when he
crashed and died instantly.
She started working at
Hornby Wendy’s four years
ago.
She said public holidays are
the restaurant’s busiest days and
it wasn’t fair to not get a day in
lieu for working them.
She plans to continue
working at Wendy’s and has not
encountered any problems while
standing up for her rights.
Wendy’s head office could not
respond to Southern View before
deadline yesterday.

•From page 1
He said it would have to assess
each case individually. “An
operational policy will need to be
developed to support the bylaw,”
he said.
Cr Galloway said the timing
for the policy hadn’t been determined.
“Such a policy would
contain a number of conditions
where restrictions can be considered,
such as the number and type
of heavy vehicles using the street,”
she said.
Cr Galloway said she’s pleased
the city council will now have the
tools it needs to address speed
and heavy vehicle traffic issues.
Wigram MP Megan Woods
said it was a good first step.
“Now we have to work to

Stonemasons start on Timeball
• By Sarla Donovan
STONEMASONS will start
work tomorrow on Lyttelton’s
iconic Timeball Tower as its
rebuild picks up pace.
They will start installing the
exterior stonework this week
using stones from the original
structure where possible, said
Heritage New Zealand general
manager Nick Chin.
A small group of workers have
been stationed at the Ferrymead
site where the stones are stored,
cleaning and preparing them for
the stonemasons to use.
Wellington firm Bosworth
Stone won the contract for the
stonework, which is expected
to take until March to
complete.
Two stonemasons will be on
site and will have helpers at
various times.
Meanwhile, the first concrete
pour – up to the first floor of the
reinforced concrete walls – will
also take place this week.
Mr Chin said everything is
“on track and on budget” for an
April completion date.
The $2.8 million restoration
project has been funded by a
$1.3 million Lotteries grant; $1.1
million grant from charitable
trust, Landmark; and $325,000
from Stout Trust, Holcim
PROGRESS: Repairs to Lyttelton’s Timeball Tower are picking up pace, with stonemasons are
at work on site. The aim is to restore the tower which stood tall against the harbour hills before
the February 22, 2011, earthquake.
Cement, Parkinson Memorial
Trust and the Mainland
Foundation, said Mr Chin. The
insurance payout funded the
demolition costs.
Community members have
driven the campaign to rebuild
the landmark and they would be
acknowledged and celebrated at
an opening ceremony when the
Timeball was completed. The
landscaping will eventually be
restored as much as possible to
its original state, with new information
boards on site which
will display the Timeball’s
history.
It is one of only 15 left in the
world and the only one to have
undergone a post-earthquake
restoration.
When completed, the tower
will once again overlook the
harbour and township, with the

Plaque to

transgender
advocate
• By Bridget Rutherford
A BRONZE plaque to remember
the woman who brought
transgender issues out of the
shadows in Christchurch will
be installed in a Barrington bus
shelter.
The plaque to honour Christina
Loughton will be installed
on a bus seat in the Athelstan St
bus shelter, with an unveiling to
be held early next year.
Ms Loughton died in 2015,
aged 77.
She founded Agender
Christchurch in 2000, with the
goal of connecting and helping
the transgender community in
the region.
Five years later, she worked
to open Rainbow House, which
provided a safe haven for
transgender people in trouble.
Ms Loughton also spent years
campaigning for better bus
services in the city and pushed
for the Athelstan St shelter to be
installed.
The Spreydon-Cashmere
Community Board has approved
a grant of $345 towards the
installation of the plaque.

Frustration over centre repairs
City council
meeting with
community
• By Sarla Donovan
HEATHCOTE Valley residents
and the city council are at

its condition.

Templeton
Foulkes said
the building
was opened in
December last
year but it’s not warm enough.
“The heating isn’t sufficient.
There are only overhead heaters
and it doesn’t warm up in the
winter. It needs a timer or some
heat pumps. People won’t want
to hire the space out if it’s
freezing cold. It’s not fit for
purpose.”

poor heating, the wooden deck
swells in winter when it is wet
and the doors out onto the deck
can’t be opened.
She also said if there
are any more than two plugs
being used at any one time in
the kitchen, the power shorts
out.
“We’re really concerned that
the building will soon be over
a year old and, at that point, I
don’t know if we will have any
recourse. We really need to get it
fit for purpose,” she said.
But city council capital
delivery community manager
Darren Moses said all
“contractual defects” had been
remedied at the centre.
But Heathcote Ward city
councillor Sara Templeton said
the city council may also have
to remedy some of the issues
identified by the community.
“It might be that the
contractors have done what
they’ve been asked but, due
to the design, it’s not fit for
purpose. It may be that the city
council needs to do a few extra
things to make sure that the
building is fit for purpose.
I’m working on that at the
moment.”
Mrs Foulkes said it was
possible some of the problems
could be regarded as health and
safety issues. She said it was
important to meet with city
council staff to work out some
solutions.
The community centre also
accommodates the Heathcote
Voluntary Library. The original
Heathcote Community Centre
was demolished following the

NIGHT-TIME WORK has

The signals are being installed
at the Sparks Rd and Lyttelton St
intersection as part of the construction
of the Quarryman’s Trail
cycleway, which will link Halswell
to the central city.
The intersection is one of six
along the cycleway route to be
fitted with traffic signals as part of
the project.
City council transport planning
and delivery manager Lynette Ellis
said the roundabout was meant to
be upgraded in 2011 but was put on
hold because of the February 22,

She said the change would make
the intersection safer. The landscaping
and lighting will also be
upgraded in many places along the
cycleway route and more than 6km
of new footpaths will be built.
The traffic lights should be
operational by March. “The Sparks

also be replaced after the work
on the Lyttelton St intersection is
completed,’’ Ms Ellis said.

IN THE

tear up the
dance floor
at the tennis
ball in the
Duvauchelle
Hall, in June,
1958. One
of the many
functions
and events
recorded by
Donald McKay
during his
career.
WELCOME: The cruise ship Himalaya visited Akaroa on December
23, 1960. Serving kai from a hangi are (from left) Naomi Bunker, Olive
Robinson, Marie Tini, unidentified and Polly-Ann Robinson. A Maori concert
party was also held for the passengers in The Gaiety.
Peninsula life captured by photographer
•From page 1
They include pictures of social
and community events, weddings,
farming activities and scenic views
of Banks Peninsula.
Mr McKay, 83, grew up on a farm
in Le Bons Bay.
An only child, he left the farm for
three years to attend Christchurch
Boys’ High School as a boarder,
from 1947-49, where he joined the
camera club.
“We had some really really
good instructors, including Len
Casbolt and Frank McGregor. Also
I used to spend a lot of time at my
uncle Stan MacKay’s as he was the
Christchurch Star Sun photographer
and his son Ross was a skilled horse
racing photographer. I used to
admire their beautiful cameras and
enlargers . . . I’m not sure what I
liked more, the photography or the
equipment.”
Mr McKay sold his push bike and
his best pair of shoes to buy a second
hand camera from H.E. Perry
in Colombo St.
“I used that camera for two or
three years, photographing various
events, weddings, and children.”
He shot his first wedding at 16,
“local people.”
Returning to Le Bons Bay in
1949, Mr McKay’s passion for photography
was a frequent distraction
from farm work. He photographed
aspects of farm life was well as local
weddings, 21sts and other social
events.
In 1961, he was offered a job as
medical photographer at Burwood
Hospital, but continued to travel
back to the peninsula in the weekends
to photograph various events.
The collection includes some
interesting documentary records of
peninsula life, Mr Smith said.
“As a historical record the collection
is extremely rich.”
“He would photograph activities
like docking at his farm in Le Bons
Bay. There’s a whole series of images
of sheep getting their tails chopped
off; guys holding knives splattered
with blood. It’s an interesting record
of a lost way of life.”
Fortunately Mr McKay still had
his job books which record the
content of the pictures. Local researcher
Jan Shuttleworth had also
already identified many subjects
in the photographs by working
through negatives digitised by Mr
McKay.
Nevertheless, cataloguing hundreds
of negatives into the Akaroa
Museum collection would be a
“long process,” Mr Smith said.
The museum plans to mount an
exhibition towards the end of next
year.

Principal’s Report
Warm greetings to
the Linwood College
community. Kia ora
koutou. Talofa lava.
Kia orana. Malo e
lelei. Bula. Fakaalofa
atu. Namaste.
Kumusta.
It is with pleasure
that I am able to
report to our community that Linwood College
has had a most positive year.
It has been a year of significant thinking and
planning as we listen to our community’s
input regarding how we should re-develop
with our whole-school rebuild. Linwood
College is clear-eyed about the forms of
education that work for our students and we
have this bedrock of understanding through
our partnership with our community.
Our community views education as
the wellbeing of the whole person. All
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.
Sports Awards Night
Linwood College believes in a ‘pathwayed
curriculum’. This means the school, students
and families knowing:
1. Students’ 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 LC help me to achieve these
pathways?”
In this way learning is meaningful to the
individual and strengths-based. At Linwood
College the individual matters.
Finally, the Education Review Office reviewed
Linwood College in the second half of Term 3.
The confirmed report is now public and I am
delighted to say that the school is back on
the three year return cycle. It is a testament
to everyone’s collective vision and positive
work for our school: Board of Trustees,
staff, students, whanau, partner schools and
community.
Nga mihi nui and best wishes for the festive
season and summer holiday.
Richard Edmundson: Tumuaki - Principal
Waitaha Haka Competition
Over Labour Weekend, Kimihia Te Matauranga Kapa Haka Group competed at the Waitaha
Secondary Schools’ Haka Competition at the Aurora Centre. The group was made up of a
combination of students from Linwood College, Christchurch Girls’ High School and three
schools from Te Tai Poutini (West Coast), those being Westland College, Greymouth High
School and Buller High School.
The competition was of a very high standard this year with ten groups competing for a spot at
the National Haka Competition in 2018.
Kimihia gained placings in the following
categories:
1st place in Poi
2nd place in Moteatea/ Traditional Chant
2nd place in Whakawatea/ Exit Song
2nd equal Te Whakahua o te Reo/ Language
with Te Pa o Rakaihautu
3rd place in Haka
3rd place in Waiata-a-ringa/ Action Song
3rd place in Waiata Tira/ Choral
3rd place for Hamiora Te Rupe/ Male Leader
Kimihia was placed 3rd overall in the competition. We are also very proud of Dayton Rapana-
Pham who was placed 2nd for his Whaikorero/Traditional Speech.
We would like to acknowledge our Kaitataki/Leaders of the group, Mairieka Prentice and
Hamiroa Te Rupe, for all their hard work in leading the group.

Duke of Edinburgh – Silver Expedition
Once again, Linwood College’s annual 'Sports Awards' ceremony was a very successful
evening. We were lucky enough to have Shane Thrower return to Linwood College as our guest
speaker, talking about how sport has impacted his life and the opportunities that it can provide.
Richard Edmundson (Principal) and Finlay Laird (Linwood College Board of Trustees member),
presented the major awards for the evening. We also had special guests from Christs' College
and ARA Institute of Canterbury in attendance.
We would like to thank the Linwood College community and Linwood College Board of Trustees
for their continuous support as we continue to pursue sporting excellence.
Congratulations to all of our award winners for 2017.
Top awards were presented to the following accomplished students:
The outdoor Duke of Edinburgh
experience has helped us to
learn new things about life and
also about ourselves. Although
it pushed us to our mental
and physical limits, it was the
best experience ever! We have
learnt to really be grateful for
the small things in life!

NEW RELEASES
Ford in New Zealand
by John Stokes
If ever there was a definitive historical book about the iconic Ford
Motor vehicle in New Zealand, this is it!
FORD IN NEW ZEALAND is a magnificently researched history of
the introduction of the Ford brand in New Zealand. An incredible
microscopic view of the beurocracy of the government and the
general public’s `hesitancy’ of the introduction of the `automobile’ in
New Zealand Rich in information, the book describes the assembly
of the first Model T Ford in Canada and the shipment of the vehicles
to New Zealand. Incredibly, New Zealand soon became the second
largest export market for Ford Canada!
The book details the evolution in New Zealand, from the late 19th
century to the `horseless carriage’ of 1904, when the first Ford came
to New Zealand, including never seen before photography of New
Zealand’s first `Ford’ owner - Robert Thompson and his `Fordmobile’.
hip between `the average kiwi’ and Ford, including the first NZ
motor review of the car (1909).

Zealand, and a tribute to a simpler way of life.
Hideaways is a celebration of quintessential New Zealand holiday
escapes: mountain huts, coastal baches, riverside cribs, converted
silos, hunting shacks, and more.
Breathtaking photography and evocative text explore far-flung retreats
from around the country, with a focus on the unique, secluded and
romantic — each offering a change of pace, a chance to disconnect.
A beautiful tribute to getting away from it all.
Sam Stuchbury is the founder and director of creative agency Motion
Sickness. He started the business, now an industry-leading studio,
while at Otago University, where he studied design and marketing.
He has a passion for film, photography, adventure and the outdoors.
Sam lives in Newmarket, Auckland, with his partner Hilary.
Like a Bat Out of Hell
The Larger than Life Story of Meat Loaf
By Mick Wall
“I never wanted to be a big star. I just wanted to be the biggest at
what I do! Powerful, unstoppable, heavy - when that word still meant
something good!” - Meat Loaf, as told to Mick Wall Everything in the
story of Meat Loaf is big. From the place he was born; to the family he
was born into; to the sound he made; and of course the records he
sold. Now, on the eve of the 40th anniversary of Bat Out of Hell, the
album that gave rise to Meat Loaf’s astonishing career, the premiere of
Bat Out Of Hell: The Musical, and the launch of a mammoth two-year
farewell tour, Mick Wall, who has interviewed Meat Loaf on numerous
occasions throughout his career, pulls back the curtains to reveal the
soft-hearted soul behind the larger-than-life character he created for
himself. From a tumultuous childhood with an alcoholic father to the
relentless abusive bullying from classmates and their parents alike,
nobody could have predicted Meat Loaf’s meteoric rise to fame.
Kai and Culture
Food stories from Aotearoa
By Freerange Press – Edited by Emma Johnson
Food tells a story. A story about where it originated, who produced
it, the producer’s values and its journey from ground to plate. We
all share in the experience of food; it connects a diversity of people,
places and ideas. Featuring: Fleur Sullivan, Dr Siouxsie Wiles, Rachel
Taulelei, Monique Fiso, Jonny Schwass, Alex Davies, Giulio Sturla,
Henry Hargreaves and many more.
In this beautiful new release from Freerange Press, complete with
full colour photos and fresh design, chefs, writers, academics and
producers come together to cook up essays, profiles and recipes
that explore Aotearoa’s contemporary food culture and an emerging,
evolving New Zealand food identity.
From mahinga kai and vegetable self-sufficiency to whole-animal
sensibility, Kai and culture is a catalyst for the discussion around the
impact food has on our culture.
