GAGGED?
Cathedral
group say
they are
muzzled
• By Gabrielle Stuart
PHILIP BURDON and Jim
Anderton say they have been
gagged from talking publicly
about the future of Christ Church
Cathedral.
The former MPs, who are
trying to save the Cathedral from
demolition, signed confidentially
contracts in September last year
preventing them speaking about
a report carried out by Miriam
Dean QC into the arguments over
whether to save or demolish the
building.
That lapsed after the report was
released late last year, but this
week they told The Star they were
still told not to talk.
The gagging order came to light
this week when The Star asked the
two former MPs for an update on
the Cathedral.
Mr Burdon said he could not
talk about anything involved in
the process.
“[Gerry] Brownlee’s
office has requested complete
confidentiality, and accordingly
we respect his complete
confidentiality and it is entirely
up to his office to decide what
information, if any, they wish to
release,” he said.
But yesterday, Mr Brownlee’s
office threw confusion on the
gagging order when it referred
questions from The Star about
the confidentiality issue to
the Department of the Prime
Minister and Cabinet.

At a Glance
THIS WEEK IN CANTERBURY’S PAST
This week in history saw the New Zealand Boxing Association
being formed in Christchurch on July 4, 1902. Hundreds of
people were evacuated as serious flooding affected the city
on July 4, 1977. Three young men drowned in the Avon River
as a result of a boating mishap on July 6, 1887. Widespread
flooding also caused problems in the province on July 7, 1908.
The Canterbury Society of Arts was formed on July 8, 1880.
Civic tree planting began on July 9, 1863. Part of the day’s
planting was a commemorative tree, generally regarded as the
beginning of the Botanic Gardens. Hagley Park and Botanic
Gardens were included in the city boundary on July 10, 1922.
A record crowd of over 57,000 watched the All Blacks play
against the British Lions at Lancaster Park on July 10, 1971.

Giant mural lifts spirits
‘Freak’ Wilson’s
latest
masterpiece
CHRISTCHURCH street artist
Wongi ‘Freak’ Wilson’s latest
artwork continues to enthrall
the Garden City.
The mural on the side of the
UniMed building at the corner
of Gloucester and Manchester
Sts was completed last month
and shows two children playing
hide and seek.
It was commissioned by
UniMed New Zealand and set
up by the street art collective
OiYou.
Wilson (left)
said as far as he
was aware there
are no plans to
build in front of
the mural.
“So hopefully
it’ll be there for
some time.”
The giant images are
modelled on his and his wife
Emma’s niece, and on the son of
a good friend.
Born and raised in Sydenham
in Christchurch where he still
lives, Wilson’s cheerful murals
continue to lift spirits city-wide.
He says his art has evolved
from a hobby to a full-time

His office said the DPMC was
leading discussions between
Great Christchurch Buildings

Burdon were in fact able to talk

confidentially agreement lapsed
he was told that any comment
would have to come from a
former Canterbury Earthquake
Recovery Authority senior
staff member now based in
Mr Brownlee’s office, who also
liaises with the DPMC.
Mr Anderton said he was
abiding by that directive.
But a central city developer
Earnest Duval said someone
needed to talk about what was
documented at his website,
www.wongi.co.nz
His interest in graffiti developed
at a young age, watching
the art form grow over the
last two decades from virtual
non-existence to a blossoming,
pervasive creative influence
across the country.
He has played a major role in
transformation graffiti art in
happening with the Cathedral,
because the silence was fuelling
uncertainty for developers and
property owners.
“It is such a significant project
for Christchurch because it is
a catalyst for so much development
in the area,” he said.
He said he understood the
details of the discussions being
kept under wraps, but either the
Government or the Cathedral
campaigners should be allowed
Christchurch through both his
hundreds of large-scale murals
across the city, and through
several exhibitions at Canterbury
Museum and the COCA
Gallery.
His medium of choice is the
spray can but his trademark is a
diverse range of styles featuring
a blend of traditional graffiti
and photorealism.
Cathedral group say they are muzzled
to give updates on the process.
Mr Anderton said the Government
had taken keeping information
under wraps too far.
“I think it’s the time, and well
past it, that they could actually
make an announcement about
what is actually happening.”
A spokesman for the Anglican
Diocese said it was not aware
of or involved in any confidentiality
agreement around the
discussions.
In Brief
86-YEAR-OLD DIES IN FIRE
An 86-year-old reported to be
Raymond Leslie John Burnett died
after a fire tore through his home
south of Cheviot yesterday. An
elderly woman, believed to be his
wife, managed to escape the fire
which had engulfed the house,
police said. Fire crews were called
to the burning house, on Gore Bay,
about 7.40am.
BUS PATRONAGE
Patronage of the city’s orange line
bus route was up 8 per cent in
May compared to the same time
last year, while patronage of the
Orbiter was down 6.2 per cent.
The blue, yellow and purple lines
were at close to the same level of
patronage. The total number of
people using these five main lines
was 709,432, a fall of 1.2 per cent
compared to the previous year.
ARTIST DONATES PAINTINGS
Christchurch artist Rangi Downes
has donated his paintings to 51
hospitals and doctors’ offices
around the South Island, and has
no plans to stop. The 75-year-old
has returned from a road trip
delivering the Mickey Mouse
paintings, which he began to
donate after hearing the stories
of children fighting cancer. He
is now working on a series of
paintings for sick children in
Christchurch.
POLLUTION GUIDELINE
EXCEEDED
The city recorded its fourth and
fifth high pollution days for the
year within the last week. The
health-based concentration
guideline was exceeded on
Sunday with a 24-hour average
concentration of 51mcg of
suspended particulate per cubic
metre of air, measured at the
monitoring site in St Albans. On
Monday, 95mcg was recorded at
the Woolston monitoring site. The
national compliance target that
Christchurch will be expected
to meet will be set at three high
pollution days per year from
September, dropping to one day
from 2020.

Couple not shaken after grisly find
THE Christchurch
holidaymaker who found a
bundled up human head washed
ashore in Fiji says he knew as
soon as he picked it up what he
held in his hands.
The gruesome find is believed
to be the latest in a gory case
of a Russian couple murdered
and dismembered on the Pacific
island.
A host of body parts, including
two pairs of severed feet,
have washed to shore in the past
fortnight.
Graeme Bickley and his wife
Jan were walking along Natadola
beach on Monday morning
when they spotted a green
bundle sitting about 10m out
from shore in low tide.
The couple, like many around
them, were fascinated by the
murder mystery and had been
reading as much as they could
about it.
Joking at first, they wondered
whether this might be more
body parts, Mr Bickley told the
New Zealand Herald.
“My wife spotted it and she
said: ‘Oh, look at that’ and I said:
‘Oh, it’ll be more body parts’.
“[I was] just joking, but when I
went out into the water and bent
down to pick it up and found it
was so heavy . . . you think: ‘Oh,
okay’.”
The bundle, tied and secured
with nylon fishing line, was
weighed down by rocks, which
made it hard to carry, Mr Bickley
said.
“I got it to shore finally and
put it down on the sand and the
stones rattled in it and I thought:
‘Oh no, this is not good’.”
Although he and his wife
chose not to open the bundle,
police later confirmed it contained
a human head, but did
not say who the victim was.
“It’s a funny little feeling in
your tummy. Like, that was
somebody’s life a few days ago,”
Mr Bickley said.
“It’s also a funny feeling about
how the people who had put that
package together had been so
inhuman.
“[They had] been able to cut it
up and spend considerable time
putting it into this parcel, which
was very neatly and securely fastened
so it actually survived all the
tides that brought it ashore again.”
Fiji police this week said DNA
tests showed the body parts

belonged to Russian couple Yuri
and Natalia Shipulin, who went
missing on June 16.
Police believe the Russians,
who had reportedly been in Fiji
since 2011, were murdered and
dismembered.
Media reported this week that
detectives had information a
chainsaw was missing from a
farm the couple were running on
the main island of Viti Levu.
The Fiji Times said they were
leasing the property and operating
a photography business, with
one friend describing them as
“soulmates”.
However, their business
partner Andrew Luzanenko told
the Fiji Sun they had financial
difficulties after the farm was
devastated by Super Cyclone
Winston this year.
Mr and Mrs Bickley were back
in their Christchurch home by
yesterday evening, having been
due to end their holiday by then
anyway.
They were left not too shaken
by the grisly find.
“Once we’d spoken to the police
and the [Fijian] newspaper,
obviously we thought about it all
day and it did leave a funny feeling
in my tummy I must admit.
“Here’s a person’s life gone and
there’s people probably not far
from us who cut them up and
put them in a package like that.”

Millions to set up Otakaro
• By Gabrielle Stuart
OTAKARO HAS budgeted
more than $6 million for its
set up, in spite of re-employing
many Canterbury Earthquake
Recovery Authority staff and
moving into its former office.
As of May, Otakaro had spent
$3.9 million of the $6.1 million
budgeted for its set up.
Otakaro is the Crown company
which has taken over control
from CERA of the city’s major
anchor projects.
The $3.9 million spend
included the cost of setting up
the office, recruiting staff, the
due diligence process, setting up
policies and procedures and the
“co-ordination and project management
of the establishment”.
That included $348,000 on
recruiting staff, including
$108,000 on international recruitment
for a chief executive.
Chief executive Albert Brantley
was found in Canterbury. Of
the other 90 staff, 52 came from
CERA.
When asked for a breakdown
of the other costs involved in the
set up, an Otakaro spokesman
told The Star that the questions
could not be answered this week
and would have to be sent as an
Official Information Act request.
TAKE OVER: Otakaro is based on level eight of the HSBC
building on Worcester Boulevard, where CERA was located
until it closed in April.
But Otakaro chairman Ross
Butler (below) said the costs
were comparable
to any company
created to deliver a
similar programme
of sizeable projects.
“Establishing
Otakaro Ltd in
just 14 weeks was a significant
undertaking given the scale and
magnitude of its role.
“The company’s ability to
maintain momentum on the
anchor projects following the
transition from CERA is a testament
to a focus on efficiency
during the set up period,” Mr
Butler said.
Minister supporting Greater
Christchurch Regeneration
Gerry Brownlee would not answer
questions about the set up
costs or what oversight he had
of them. He said they were best
answered by Otakaro.
In a report to a parliamentary
committee, Otakaro said more
of the $6.1 million would be
spent this year reviewing inherited
systems and “bedding in
key establishment policies and
processes”.
Labour’s Canterbury
spokeswoman
Megan Woods (right)
said the fact that so
much was being spent
on setting up systems
concerned her.
“It really highlights that
CERA wasn’t fit for purpose if
five and a half years later we’re
now having to put these systems
in place.”
But she said the money would
be worth spending if the new
systems could speed up the
process.
“If this is $6 million invested
in getting things moving, it’s
a good investment. But what I
don’t want to see is good money
going after bad. So the proof will
be in the pudding, really,” she
said.
Full house for
Crown-owned
company
A MAN who led the restoration of
Catholic Diocese of Christchurch
buildings, and delivered projects
for Disney has snapped up the
last senior managerial position at
Otakaro.
Keith Beal will be the Crownowned
company’s general manager,
strategy and property opportunities,
starting next month.
He rounds out a now fully
staffed senior management team
of four, plus chief executive Albert
Brantley.
The company is charged with
delivering the city’s anchor projects.
It took over from the now
defunct CERA.
General manager development
Robert Fiske, who has been employed
by BHP Billiton in Perth,
managing a $6 billion portfolio.
General counsel is Ruth Keating
who relocated from Melbourne
to take up the role. She has held
positions at Meridian Energy and
several law firms here and abroad.
Former CERA employee Dave
Mills was appointed to the role
of general manager corporate
services and chief financial officer.
He has also held positions with
New Zealand Cricket and Meridian
Energy.

Underground insurance woes
MAN ARRESTED AFTER
SCIRT: The Wairakei Diversion has been repaired as part of the
major upgrade to the city’s wastewater network.
THE CITY council is facing a
multi-billion dollar problem as it
tries to find an insurer and
options to cover the network of
underground pipes.
It has been crunching the
numbers over the past few
months on how much insurance
to get and how to get it.
Currently, there is $6 billion
of underground infrastructure
with $100 million cover
through the Local Authority
Protection Programme Disaster
Fund.
Above ground, buildings and
other assets are well-covered,
with $1.8 billion coverage
for $2.2 billion of assets, but
underground is another story,
said city councillor and the
insurance committee deputy
chairman, Raf Manji.
“Certainly it is a risk that
we’ve had to carry for a long
time. We do have a huge amount
of underground infrastructure
that is not insured,” he said.
It’s a risk mitigated by the “resilience”
built into the networks
– plastic pipes instead of ceramic
that could take “a lot of shaking”,
Cr Manji said.
The problem is to go to market
insurers need enough information
to base a price on, said city
council financial officer Peter
Gudsell.
But the city is still undergoing
extensive repairs, meaning there
is “insufficient information to
seek a response from the market”,
he said.
The city had $200 million
of cover with LAPP after the
September 2010 and February
2011 earthquakes, which was
paid out.
Cr Manji favours getting
“catastrophe insurance” or
parametric insurance for the underground
infrastructure. This
insures for a particular event.
In a disaster, the Government
covers 60 per cent of the
cost, with councils paying the
remainder.
But that is under review by the
Local Government Risk Agency,
forcing councils to look at other
insurance options.
“I think the gut feeling is
councils will be taking on more
of their own risk,” said Cr Manji.
Auckland City Council director
legal and risk Katherine
Anderson said it was looking
to purchase cover for its underground
stormwater assets, with a
replacement value of $2.9 billion.
The normally candid deputy
mayor, Vicki Buck, who is on the
committee, said she preferred
not to comment on the “minefield”
that was the city council’s
insurance.
But she did say that after the
issues with Civic Assurance,
the city council has been more
cautious.
It took a year of mediation
with Civic Assurance’s reinsurers
before it received its
global settlement in December
of $635 million.
“Our approach to insurance is
once burnt [be] incredibly careful.
Insurance is a regular subject
and there are regular updates,”
she said.
INDECENT EXPOSURE
Police arrested a man on Tuesday
after he exposed himself to a
young child in Riccarton. The
man is his 40s is known to police.
The incident happened about
3.30pm in Kmart. He was taken
into custody and investigations
are continuing.
HUNTER SHOT IN LEG
A man is recovering after being
accidentally shot in the leg by his
hunting partner at Glenthorne
Station, near Lake Coleridge on
Sunday. The pair and a third
man, all from Selwyn, were on a
hunting trip when the accident
happened. Senior Sergeant Tony
Beaumont said one of the men
had been unloading his rifle when
it discharged. Police were likely to
lay charges, he said.
CORRECTION
In The Star last week, it was
reported that the city council
made the decision to put $70,000
toward the SingularityU summit
behind closed doors. The grant
was discussed behind closed
doors in a public excluded
committee meeting, but the
final decision was made in a
meeting which was open to the
public. The Star apologises for the
error.

Prisoner-to-staff
ratio high
in Christchurch
• By Gabrielle Stuart
TWO CHRISTCHURCH prisons
have the worst prisoner-to-staff
ratios in the country.
Rolleston Prison has the highest,
with 3.6 prisoners to each
person on staff. Christchurch
Men’s Prison has the second highest,
with 2.8 prisoners to each staff
member.
Most prisons have about two
prisoners to one staff member,
with 1.5 prisoners to each staff
member the lowest ratio.
The numbers were revealed in
a report to a parliamentary committee,
which said the ratios could
be influenced by the age and
design of the prison, the type of
programmes on site and the security
classification of the prisoners.
Corrections Association of NZ
president Alan Whitley said the
real ratio from day-to-day at the
prisons was much higher than the
numbers reported.
He said the real ratio from
day-to-day could be as high as one
staff member to 20 prisoners.
The numbers reflected the
ratio if every staff member was
at work at one time, but because
they worked shifts that never happened,
he said.
Health battle for rugby star
• By Bridget Rutherford
UTO ENOSI Tuipulotu came
to Akaroa four years ago to
get an education so he could
support his family back in
Tonga.
But now he is in
Christchurch Hospital battling
a rare form of cancer.
The 19-year-old had been
having trouble with a racing
heart while at rugby training,
and went for a check-up.
It was then
when the
doctor found
a cancerous
growth on his
heart.
The building
apprentice is
now in hospital undergoing
chemotherapy treatment.
His former history teacher,
Garry Brittenden, who helped
bring him to New Zealand, has
set up a Givealittle page to help
raise money to bring his family
over to be with him while he
undergoes treatment.
His father, Siaosi, arrived in
Christchurch on Saturday, but
his mother Lou and his two
brothers and sister are still to
travel here. The money raised
would also go towards his
ongoing medical costs.
After six days, the page had
raised more than $16,200.
Mr Brittenden said he
was “blown away” with the
response.
He said Uto was a real role
model for the youth in Akaroa,
and was loved by all.
Uto moved to Akaroa to
attend the area school for year
11. He stayed with various host
families during his time.
Mr Brittenden said he
worked extremely hard to gain
NCEA levels one, two and
three, so he could go on to get a
job as a building apprentice.
“It was just through bloody
determination, he just put his
head down, he’s a real role
model,” he said.
“He knew that this was his
opportunity to help his family.”
Uto joined the Akaroa
Volunteer Fire Brigade while
he was at school, and in
2014, made the New Zealand
TALENT: Uto
Enosi Tuipulotu

Davies sets sights
on Brexit debacle
• By Tom Doudney
DEPARTING Hagley-
Ferrymead Community Board
member Joe Davies is off to
Brexit-land but will keep in
touch with grass roots politics in
Christchurch for the remainder
of his term.
Mr Davies, 21, will leave for
the United Kingdom in the next
two weeks, where he hopes to
become involved with “radical”
politics in the wake of the country’s
vote to leave the European
Union.
The move will also enable
him to spend more time with
his Swedish girlfriend Lovisa
Limseth.
He will not seek re-election
in October. However, he has
decided not to resign early – in
spite of not being able to attend
the last five board meetings – so
he can keep in touch with what
is happening in the ward for the
remainder of his term.
Mr Davies said he had asked
for a resolution to be passed
at the next community board
meeting allowing him to finish
his term without picking up a
salary.
LOVE AND COUNTRY: Joe
Davies, left, with his Swedish
girlfriend Lovisa Limseth. Mr
Davies will soon return to the
United Kingdom, where he
was born.
“I think Brexit has provided
one of the most radical opportunities
for politics in my lifetime
and although I am a Kiwi, my
blood is British.”
Mr Davies reiterated his desire
to become a New Zealand MP in
the future.
“It has been an absolute
honour to serve the people and I
say with absolute certainty that
I will return to New Zealand
when the radical times arrive
here.”

A woman had to be cut from a car after a
crash in Aranui on Tuesday night.
Two women, in their 20s, were taken to
Christchurch Hospital, one with serious
injuries and the other with moderate
injuries, at about 7.30pm.
Fire appliances from the Wainoni and
Christchurch stations spent 30min using
hydraulic rescue gear to remove the roof
of the car to extract one of the women.
The car hit a parked vehicle and
smashed it against a nearby dairy on the
corner of Hampshire St and Marlow Rd.

Convention Centre Precinct
decision met with approval
I WAS very pleased last week
to be able to deliver some
extremely positive news to
Christchurch residents about the
future of the Convention Centre
Precinct.
In a nutshell, months of design
and planning work has put
us in a good position to open
Christchurch’s new Convention
Centre in late 2019.
This news has been met with
widespread approval from local
government and the business
community, all of whom know
how important the conventions
market is for the region, and
New Zealand.
Having successfully completed
the early design and master
planning stages for the precinct,
Otakaro Ltd has released an
indicative design for the Convention
Centre.
As the Crown-owned company
set up to deliver central
city anchor projects on the Government’s
behalf, Otakaro will
now seek contractors to finalise
the design and then construct
the facility.
Ōtākaro Ltd will also work
with parties interested in opportunities
to develop the wider
Precinct, which has considerable
space for accommodation, car
parking and other potential
uses.
Work on the site will begin
immediately, first with rerouting
of telecommunications and
other early enabling works,
and within the next two weeks
preparations will begin for the
Colombo St to Oxford Tce section
of Gloucester St to close by
the end of July.
Engagement with potential
early works contractors will
begin immediately, to allow
substantial earthworks to begin
in October.

The Government remains
absolutely committed to a Convention
Centre Precinct that is

accommodation, hospitality and
retail to support the convention
facilities.

Fendalton-

Community Board
deputy chairman
David Cartwright
writes about the
role a community board
plays in society and his
time in local body politics
over the past three years.
AS WE approach the local body
elections, I find myself having
many interesting and sometimes
challenging conversations with
friends, colleagues, and people
in the community regarding
the process and purpose of
community boards.
As with anything, the
opinions and level of
understanding around the role
of community boards covers the
entire spectrum from those who
see just another pointless layer
of bureaucracy, to those who are
very supportive and really value
the community level advocacy
and decision-making the boards
can provide.
Often the strongest supporters
are those who have had some
kind of contact with the board,
perhaps through being involved
with a deputation, receiving
a grant for a community
event, or communicating with
board members regarding
improvements to local facilities
or infrastructure.
DECISION-MAKING: Car park
demands at Jellie Park are being
addressed.

This is testament to our customers who have been amazed at the savings with Onyx, but also hadn’t realised

Email us your views on anything Christchurch editor@starmedia.kiwi or

have a role to play
At the heart of it, the success
and relevance of a community
board can be measured on its
ability to communicate with and
advocate for their community –
that is our purpose.
As I come to the end of my
second term on the Fendalton-
Waimairi Community Board,
the range of issues and events
we are involved in continues to
excite and motivate me.
The small things really do
make a difference when it comes
to improving wellbeing, safety,
and engagement at a community
level.
Some of the highlights of
this term has been delivering
the new Burnside Park
fitness track, progressing
the replacement Bishopdale
Library, addressing car parking
demands at Jellie Park, and
granting funds to the talented
youth of our ward to attend local
and international sporting and
cultural events.
Recently the board has heard
deputations on the intersection
of Gardiners and Harewood Rds
and looked at various short and
long-term solutions to address
the ever increasing traffic on our
roads.
Other deputations have
covered issues such as the
drying up of our rivers and
streams, increasing quarrying
and land use issues, and the
removal of problem trees on
health or safety grounds.
Of course, not all issues
can be solved at a community
board level, but board members
can elevate any issue with
council staff, request additional
information, and work to find
an agreeable outcome.
All of this means one of the
most important attributes of
an effective board member is
the ability to really listen and
communicate with residents,
other board members, city
councillors and city council
staff.
So when you come to complete
your voting papers in October,
take the time to find out more
about the candidates, think
about the issues that matter to
you and your neighbours, and
take a pro-active approach to
deciding who will be your voice
in the community.

the issues your community
board should be focusing

OVER THE last months I have
been hearing from people all over
Christchurch that there is more
crime in their neighbourhoods
and less local police to be seen on
their streets.
So, when the police statistics
were released last month the
comparison between 2015 and
2016 confirmed what I have been
hearing loud and clear on the
ground.
More cars have been stolen and
more houses have been broken
into. Burglaries jumped from 524
in 2015 to 708 in 2016 – that’s an
increase of 35 per cent.
Across the country the increase
has been just 11 per cent – so
we need to ask why Canterbury
is tracking at our three times
the national rate? This is not a
winning scoreboard in any Cantabarian’s
book! Add to this the
increase in stolen vehicles of 24
per cent and it’s pretty clear that
crime is increasing.
That’s why it’s so disappointing
to see that Canterbury has had
a 21 per cent cut in foot patrols
over the last year. As people are
beginning to spread out again
and the CBD is slowly coming
to life, crime is on the increase. I
would have thought we would be
seeing more police out and about
Crime increasing
not fewer. Especially when other
parts of the country have seen an
increase in foot patrols.
Bobbies on the beat
make a difference – I
have seen first-hand the
success the intensive
neighbourhood policing
in Riccarton has
made. Key to this success
was a local policeman
known to the local
community.
There’s no doubt in
mind that the Canterbury
Police, ably led by
Canterbury District Commander
Superintendent John Price, is doing
all it can to stem this tide. But
there is only so much they can do
with no additional commitment
from Government to support
their efforts.
There was some money for
police in the 2016 Budget but it
does not mean extra boots on
the ground. The new money is
earmarked for deserved pay increases
but does not mean more
crime-fighters out on our streets
catching criminals.
Greg O’Conner, president
of the Police Association,
noted at budget
time that Operational
Commanders will be
disappointed that there
will be no significant
new operational funding
to enable them to
deliver essential policing
services.
What is needed is a
proper commitment to Canterbury
and not the business as
usual mind-set of the National
Government. Just as with health,
EQC, housing, transport and
education, policing needs to be
seen in the context of the last five
and a half years in Canterbury.

Contaminated
properties
list out soon
THE OWNERS of more than 3000
Selwyn properties will soon find
out that their land has been listed as
potentially contaminated.
A two-year programme, carried
out by Environment Canterbury
on behalf of the Selwyn District
Council, has resulted in the identification
of 1837 new potentially
contaminated sites, split between
3152 parcels of land.
The news has raised concerns
that land owners’ property values
could be negatively affected by the
information, which will be made
publicly available on an online
database.
However, ECan scientist Davina
McNickel said people had a right
to know what their land had been
used for in the past.
“Being on the list means people
will know whether they should
graze the land, or perhaps fence it
off from stock,” she said.
“It also means people will
understand the implications of
any proposed development or
subdivision of the land and whether
they need to test the land first.”
The sites, which belong to 1783
different owners, will be added
to the Hazardous Activities and
Industries List.
Neighbours take on oil giant
• By Andrew King
RESIDENTS ARE standing
up to one of the biggest petrol
companies in the world as it
tries to expand its Edgeware
site.
BP Oil New Zealand owns BP
Edgeware and has applied for a
resource consent to expand its
site at the corner of Edgeware
Rd and Cranford St, adding another
four pumps and 22 more
car parks.
To do so, it has bought two
properties north of the site to
expand into.
But residents on Cornwall St
are fuming at the proposal, saying
they weren’t consulted and it
will ruin the area.
One of opponents, Rob Hull,
said it was not what the area
needed and what the Edgeware
Village Master Plan set out to
achieve.
“Our main concern is that
it is completely counter to the
district plan and what was
envisaged for the future of the
Edgeware village,” he said.
The master plan aims to
restore the area as a thriving
shopping centre and community
hub.
Another nearby resident,
Monique Posthuma, said all

they can do to battle a “big
commercial corporate entity”
was to “jump up and down”.
“Our biggest concern is it is
going into a residential area.
It’s going away from the plan.
What can we do?” she said.
BP Oil communications and
external affairs manager Shelley
Brady said the demand for service
in the area had increased.
She said improvements needed
to be made to keep up with
that demand and make sure
congestion does not become a
common problem.
“We have been following the
council approval process and
it’s ultimately their decision as
to what will and won’t be approved,”
she said.
City council head of resource
consents John Higgins said the
Edgeware master plan does not
cover the site where the expansion
is proposed.
“It’s important to note that
a master plan does not have
the same relevance when making
notification decisions,” he
said.
“This is because the notification
decision focuses on adverse
effects, rather than the broader
planning assessment that is
required when a decision is
being made whether to grant
the application resource consent.”

the school year it is a time for
reflection.
I am pleased to see
the vast majority of
students arriving at
school on time and
getting to classes on
time throughout the
day. The atmosphere in
classrooms is positive
with both students and
teachers working hard.
Our teachers have
continued to take
the many learning
opportunities offered to
them as they work to

It is great to see teachers as well as
students excited through learning.
Learning has taken place in an
array of venues including the
city itself, Victoria Park, Halswell

Pass National Park,
Banks Peninsula, in
various businesses,
in universities and

course, here on our
school campus. We
are indeed fortunate
to live in Christchurch
with such an array of
learning opportunities
within close proximity.
We are also busy

for the modernisation of our
buildings. Once completed we

The recent Board of Trustees
election brings us a new Board
with two previous members having

Having a strong Board which is

The future is bright as we all work

Activities impress crowd on Open Night
A large crowd
of parents and
prospective students
took the opportunity
recently to attend our
Open Night and really
see what Hillmorton
is about! They
couldn’t help but be
impressed!
Many myths
surround schools
and misinformation

people to come and
see for themselves,
all that Hillmorton has to offer.
Large numbers of people were taken on tours
by students with many commenting on the
friendly atmosphere and really positive aspects
such as school size and opportunities, the small
class sizes and support available for those with
learning needs.
As always, we also encourage people to avail
themselves of the invitation to come and visit at
any time!
If you wish to visit any school day, please make
a time with the Principal’s Executive Assistant or
call the School Office.

out of their in-class programmes
to spend a day learning at Halswell

The opportunity was also taken
for a range of learning to take

Timely win at Home and Leisure Show
WEST MELTON resident
Kate Shaw will no longer
need to worry about keeping
the chill out of her home this
winter.
Last weekend, Mrs Shaw
walked out of the The Star Home
and Leisure Show with the
winning ticket for a new central
heating system for her home.
“I’m very excited . . . this is
the first sort of prize I have ever
won,” Mrs Shaw said.
The system, designed to radiate
heat throughout the house,
was sponsored by Central Heating
New Zealand.
Central Heating New Zealand
managing director Lyall Smith
said the unit is a warm water
central heating system.
“They work very well. Silent,
warm, radiant, lovely to have,”
he said.
Mr Smith said the radiated
panels situated throughout
the house will heat the water
pumped through the radiators
to warm the house.
More than 100 exhibitors
packed into Horncastle Arena
for the three-day show last week
with some of the exhibitions
ranging from motor homes to

Hacking and
getting
away with it
• By Gabrielle Stuart
HANDING over Government data
to hackers is not normal policy
– but that is exactly what the city
council plans to do when it hosts a
“hackathon” this month.
GovHack NZ brings together “civic
hacker” coders, developers and
entrepreneurs to work together over
a weekend, but rather than breaking
into systems they use Government
and council data to innovate and
improve them.
It started in Australia, and events
have been held in the North Island,
but this year will be the first held
in Christchurch. Winning apps last
year included iHelp, which works to
help people connect and get information
and help they need after a
disaster. The team from Wellington
won a $4000 prize for their app.
City council IT service manager
Dana Burnett said people could
enter the challenge even if they did
not have technical skills.
•The hackathon will be held on
July 29-31 at the city council,

registration is essential. Information

ur People
Laying down the challenge to create
Christchurch-raised
film-maker Tearepa
Kahi directed the 2013
hit Mt Zion starring
singer Stan Walker. His
documentary
Poi E: The Story of Our
Song debuts at the
NZ International Film
Festival this month
Poi E was the first Maori
language song to make it to No
1 in the charts. Why did pakeha
New Zealand adopt this song as
their own?
Whether you spoke Maori or
not, you could love this song
because the tune’s so catchy
and the beat’s so infectious.
Dalvanius called it “hobnail
boots music”. It has that party
strum that speaks to working
rural New Zealand and those
space invader sounds which
spoke to urban kids. He
orchestrated it to reflect the
DNA of the people and the time.
You can try to dissect it but it’s
really alchemy.
Does your documentary show
a “warts-and-all” version of
MOTIVATED:
Tearepa Kahi’s
first film Mt Zion
was slightly
autobiographical.
Dalvanius Prime?
More a “full colour, high
definition” version. Dalvanius
was a juggernaut – compromise
didn’t exist in his vocabulary. But
he was also a chess grand master
– he always had another play. He
knew white radio wasn’t going
to play Poi E, so what does he
do? He takes his hat off, goes up
the main street of Patea and asks
Quality hardwood flooring
made from local eucalypts
everybody for a $100 donation to
record the video.
When he couldn’t get it
screened he went to Derek Fox
at Te Karere News, who made
the music video their whole
three-minute bulletin. He saw
everything with so much clarity.
To have a vision that no one else
can see and take others along
with you – that’s what great
people do.
Why did he have so many
chihuahuas?
He had about 10 at one time
and this was before lap dogs were
fashionable. This dude was not
copying anyone – he came fully
formed. As a seven-year-old, he
was rounding up all the loose
pets in Patea and staging circus
performances as their grand MC.
He’d have chickens squawking,
a three-legged dog running
through a wall of fire. He had big
imagination and talent but also
huge commitment and discipline
– a winning combination.
You went to Patea to meet the
people who knew him. Did you
have any surprises?
What hit me is how present
he still is there today – in spite
of his death in 2002 he’s still
shoulder to shoulder with that
community.
Family and friends gave you
access to previously unseen
footage. What was your
favourite find?
The crown jewel of the film
is the original tape cassette
recording of Dalvanius and Ngoi
Pewhairangi singing Poi E for the
first time in a jam session at her
kitchen table at Tokomaru Bay in
1982. His cousin had the cassette
hiding in a sock drawer for 32
years. Hearing those voices
from the past is eerie. Ngoi had
written the lyrics but the paint
is still wet on the song and you
can hear them consolidating it
together. He picks up his ukulele
and goes, “How does that shift
happen again?” and they let it rip
one more time. It’s so special.

another Maori music No 1
Why did Dalvanius ask Ngoi
Pewhairangi to write Poi E for
him?
She’d written Prince Tui
Teka’s hit E Ipo which Dalvanius
produced. Realising Maori
language could get airplay was a
light bulb moment for him. The
record company had allowed it
because it had that big stanza in
English; “My darling Missy, you
are always on my mind . . .” So he
visited Ngoi in Tokomaru Bay to
ask for a song to perform at the
Patea kapa haka festival. Both
towns – East Coast and West
Coast – had lost their freezing
works. When he saw how tall his
whanau became when they performed
that song and the crowd’s
response, he realised he could
do something more with it. The
fact a waiata could be the genesis
for social change is so powerful.
I think because the path was so
organic and real it allowed for
wider change to take place.
How far have we come since
Poi E?
One of the bittersweet aspects
of this story is that we haven’t
had another Maori language
song reach No 1. The challenge
has been laid down for this generation.
We need to remember
that MPs make legislation but it’s
artists who create change.
The film premiered during
Matariki – the Maori New Year.
Was that planned?
I wanted it to come out on
Waitangi Day but it would’ve
been a very different story
because Chris Bourke sent
me a two-hour interview he’d
done with Dalvanius that really
changed the game. I also used
two interviews Dalvanius did
with Henare Te Ua as a young

man in 1983 and in 1987 after
he’s masterminded a world tour.
It’s fitting the film comes out
during Matariki – a time for
remembering people who’ve
passed and celebrating their contribution.
Because it has taken
several years to make, sadly
some people instrumental to the
production have passed away including
Dalvanius’ eldest brother
and my own mentor Eruera Nia.
When did you learn Te Reo?
I grew up in Christchurch
where there were limited opportunities
to speak Te Reo. Dad
was a musician in Billy TK’s
band. We spent a lot of time on
the road and twice a year we’d
drive up to Pukekohe to see
whanau. Nana always told the
best jokes in Maori. She’d really
come alive when she was cracking
jokes with her cousins. She
was a big influence.
Your first feature film Mt
Zion was set in your Nana’s
house in Pukekohe. How much
of you is in that story?
There’s a lot of my father and
cousins but what motivates the
main character, Turei, is definitely
my story. That question of,
“How far would I go to pursue
my dream?” I got Jim Moriarty’s
phone number and rang him so
many times to beg him to let me
into his theatre company. I was
18 when I got in and spent two
years on the road performing at
high schools, marae and prisons
around the country including
three months inside Paparoa
and Arohata Women’s Prisons
helping “lifers” devise plays and
songs to perform at the Christchurch
Arts Festival. Celia Lashlie
was the prison warden who
made it happen.
It’s time
Why did you decide to try
directing?
As a male Maori actor, I found
myself typecast in this role of
leather-wearing guy with a beer
in one hand. Then Don Selwyn
came along with The Maori Merchant
of Venice. To be in a Maori
language film was culturally
electric. A lot of relationships
were forged – my wife Reikura
and I played the leads. So our
next project was a Maori Romeo
and Juliet.
What was your greatest
challenge in making the Poi E
documentary?
Allowing Dalvanius’ voice to
tell the story instead of my own;
allowing the past and present
to sing together on the same
page and getting all the various
formats to mesh while allowing
them to exist within their own
time signature. It’s a big responsibility
to be honest. Fortunately
his sister Barletta’s first words after
watching the film were “Yup,
that’s our story”. I felt grateful
and humbled.

Landlords could face tax
Abortion rates
• By Shelley Robinson
LANDLORDS OF derelict sites,
which fall into disrepair after
becoming makeshift shelters for
the homeless, could be targeted
with a new tax.
At last week’s Development
Forum, it recommended that city
council staff should investigate
a derelict site tax, after city
councillor Jamie Gough said it was
time it had tools at its disposal to
force landlords to clean up their
acts.
It comes after the city council
was left “relatively powerless” to
deal with the Hotel All Seasons
in Merivale last year, said Cr
Gough.
Squatters had moved into
the building, which is owned
by Pandey Hotel Corporation,
causing it to become both a
health hazard and a danger to the
homeless frequenting it, he said.
“There was so little we could do
– we could write them (the landlords)
a letter. We don’t have much
in the tool kit,” he said.
Since controversy surrounding
the site, Cr Gough said Pandey
hired a gardener and a caretaker.
Other examples were Antonio
Hall on Riccarton Rd and the
former saleyards, he said.
Cr Gough said a derelict site
IN DISREPAIR: Antonio Hall on Riccarton Rd, is one example that
could incur a derelict site tax, or a helping hand from the city
council if a initiative by Cr Jamie Gough gets the go ahead.
policy could also have “incentives,”
which could include rates remissions
for bringing buildings up to
an acceptable standard.
“It is fair we bring out the
stick to landlords who have their
property in a derelict state. But
we also need to try and remove
the barriers for people not taking
action,” he said.
The idea, still in its infancy,
could see the proceeds of the tax
given to those who predominately
inhabit abandoned buildings in
the city – the homeless.
Another option is for the money
to be used to beautify empty sites,
said Cr Gough.
up in over 30s
• By Siobhan Watson
MORE WOMEN over 30
may be having abortions in
Canterbury because they do
not qualify for subsidised
contraceptives.
Statistics New Zealand published
a table showing abortions
for women aged 30 to 40
years and over has increased
7.3 per cent from 2014 to 2015.
Christchurch Family
Planning national medical
adviser Dr Christine Roke
said one of the reasons why
this may be happening is
because women over 30 do
not have opportunities for the
subsidies that women under
30 receive.
She said that long-acting
contraceptives are more
expensive than the pill or
condoms, which means that
women over 30 may not be
able to afford them.
‘’If you go to a GP and your
not subsidised then it can cost
about $100 to get long-acting
contraceptive.’’
These long-acting contraceptives
are more effective at
preventing pregnancy than
other forms of contraceptives,
and she said this may partly
be the reason why the number
of abortions for women over
30 has increased.
Another reason for women
over 30 having more abortions
than women under 30
is because of abnormalities in
the fetus.
‘’A small proportion of
abortions are due to abnormalities
and deformities
in babies and these issues
are more common in older
people.
“This may partly reflect the
statistics,” Dr Roke said.
She also said there had been
an increase in Christchurch’s
population which may also
inflate statistics.
She said although there had
been an increase in abortions
for those aged over 30, there
had also been a decrease in
abortions overall.
The overall abortion rate
has fallen by 38 per cent since
2008.
‘’I think it’s great the abortion
ratio is going down,
considering the fact the
Christchurch population has
gotten bigger.’’

KiwiSaver statements well read
MOST KIWISAVER members
are reading their annual
statements but less than a
quarter have checked to see if
they are on track for the kind
of retirement they want.
Research by investment
watchdog the Financial
Markets Authority found 79
per cent of members had read
their annual statement.
Paul Gregory, head of investor
capability at the FMA said
it had been surprised by the
number of people that did read
their statements.
“This shows there is engagement
which is encouraging
and was surprising.”
However, the research did
find a gender and age split on
who read annual statements
thoroughly.
Males over 60 were more
likely to read their annual
statements thoroughly while
females aged 18 to 29 were
least likely to.
Females aged 18 to 29 were
also the ones most likely to say
they did not recall receiving a
statement at all.
For those who didn’t read
the statement the biggest
barriers were that it was too
complicated or they weren’t
interested in it.
But just 23 per cent had
checked to see if their
KiwiSaver account was on
track.
Gregory said the statement
should be a launchpad for
people to think about whether
at they were on track to have
the retirement they want.
“When this arrives through
your letterbox, or in your
email, it’s a great opportunity
to check in with your goals.
And, if you’re not happy, to
check in with your KiwiSaver
provider.”
Of those who checked
whether they were on track the
most common way to do so
was through an online calculator
either on their provider’s
website or through the sorted
website.
The research also asked
people what extra information
in the statement would
help people them make
better decisions about their
retirement.
More than 70 per cent said
they wanted to see a lump
sum figure for how much they
would have at 65 and a further
62 per cent would like to see
what weekly figure that lump
sum would give them.
Another 37 per cent said
they would like to see fees broken
out in a dollar figure.
Currently providers do not
have to give that information.
Gregory said the results
of the survey would be used
as part of a review of annual
statements being worked on by
itself, the Ministry of Business,
Innovation and Employment
and the Commission for
Financial Capability.
KiwiSaver providers have
to send out an annual statement
every year within three
months of the end of the tax
year on March 31.
The research surveyed 2000
people between May and June
of which 1313 people were
KiwiSaver members.
Of those who were not
KiwiSaver members most were
over 60 and had an annual
income below $50k.

Countdown to Rio
Dickson chases golden dream
The Rio de Janeiro Olympics begin in five weeks
time. Sports reporter Gordon Findlater counts down
to Rio, highlighting some of Canterbury’s brightest
talents. This week, we look at sevens player Sam
Dickson and his miraculous return from injury.
LESS THAN three month’s ago
Sam Dickson lay in the middle
of the field in agony at the Hong
Kong sevens tournament.
His teammates were celebrating
a last minute game winning
try against Kenya. But Dickson
was contemplating how bad the
knee injury he had just sustained
could be.
“First of all, I thought it was
just my MCL which is usually
about eight weeks out. Then I
went and had an MRI and found
out the next day the anterior
cruciate ligament) was ruptured
which wasn’t great news. To be
honest, I thought Rio was completely
out of the picture.”
A ruptured ACL would in
almost any circumstance mean
surgery and at least six months
out of the game.
The lure of the Olympic Games
was enough for the 26-year-old
to take a risk and go the non-traditional
method of attempting to
recover from the injury without
surgery. A decision that would
keep his Rio dream alive.
The odds were not in Dickson’s
favour. However, his knee recovered
to the point where he could
take part in the sevens trial camp
three weeks ago.
“I hadn’t done much field stuff
by then. To be honest, I didn’t
have a lot of confidence going
into that, but I managed to get
through it and I was pretty
happy with the way i went.”
With his knee holding up to
the test, Dickson accomplished
the goal that just a few month
ago he would have seen as a long
shot. Being named in the sevens
squad for the Rio Olympics.
Sevens didn’t enter Dickson’s
mind until 2012, spending 17
years coming through the grades
as an emerging flanker.
Dickson’s rugby career began
as a five-year-old playing midget
rugby for West Melton. He would
play through the grades for the
club, even playing afternoon
games in the country competition
after playing for his secondary
school team, St Thomas, in
the morning.
After going on to play first
XV rugby in his final year at
St Thomas, Dickson spent two
years playing for Marist Albion
colts before rejoining his boyhood
club, West Melton. He
would go on to captain the side
as well as lead the Ellesmere and
Canterbury Country representative
teams.
He made the Canterbury NPC
wider-training squad in 2012.
But the catalogue of talented
loose forwards in the Canterbury
ranks meant opportunities were
limited with the likes of Nasi
Manu, George Whitelock, Luke
Whitelock, Matt Todd, Kieran
Read, Richie McCaw and Jordan
Taufua among the ranks.
Sir Gordon Tietjens was looking
for a new crop of players to
bring into his sevens squad in
2012.
Former Canterbury NPC
coach Tabai Matson recognised
something in Dickson that he
believed could translate to the
seven-man game and had the
flanker attend a sevens training
camp.
After impressing at the camp,
Dickson was selected to play in
the 2012 Safari sevens tournament
in Kenya. It was the first
sevens tournament he had played
in, having never previously
played at secondary school or
provincial level.
“It was a bit of a shock to the
system really. The altitude in
Kenya was pretty high, plus we

injury and is now gearing up for the Rio Olympics, where he
hopes to win gold with the New Zealand Sevens squad.
played six games in one day.”
Tietjens was impressed with
the debut and selected Dickson
in the sevens squad for the upcoming
Gold Coast tournament.
Tweaking a hamstring a day out
from the tournament, though,
meant he was forced to wait for
his New Zealand debut.
Just a month later, he had his
opportunity in Dubai. Dickson
was contracted for the remainder
of the season and claimed his
first IRB sevens title in December
2012 in South Africa. He
would go on to win that year’s
IRB Sevens World Series with
New Zealand.
Dickson’s career could have
taken a very different path at one
stage.
In 2010, he was asked by a
friend to play a game of AFL
(Australian Rules) in Christchurch
“I played a few games, learned
the rules and just got better and
better. All of a sudden i was playing
for New Zealand and went to
the International Cup in 2011.”
Following his performances
for New Zealand in Australia,
Dickson was scouted by Australian
club side St Kilda. But at 22,
he was seen as being slightly too
old to mould into a professional.
With his path now well and
truly heading towards Rio, Dickson
is confident having another
four weeks to get back to full
fitness.
If New Zealand is able to win
gold at the sevens, the victory
will surely taste even sweeter for
Dickson who, at the moment, is
feeling healthy, lucky and ready
to play.
Rio’s six-day sevens tournament
begins on August 6.

Taste
The love of food involves science
Ever wondered who is
cooking your food when
you go out to a cafe or
restaurant? The Star
continues its series talking
with chefs.
Mamacita’s owner and
head chef – Jess Lynch
• By Gabrielle Stuart
JESS LYNCH had a molecular
biology degree and was on her
way to becoming a doctor when
she threw it all in to pursue her
love of food.
She had finished her pre-med
training, had been accepted into
medical school and was a couple
of weeks away from starting when
she reached crisis-point.
“I thought what am I doing? I
don’t want to spend millions of
years studying to get to a medical
field where there are all sorts
of issues – because in the United
States it’s very complicated but
you end up essentially working
for insurance companies. So I
decided to take a break and went
back to what I always loved,
which was cooking.”
She now runs a popular food
truck, Mamacita’s, which is often
set up in Cathedral Square, and is
negotiating contracts for her own
Mexican restaurant, which she
plans to open later this year.
She grew up in the kitchen in
Southern California, learning
techniques from her Mexican
grandmother, her Italian father
and her mother who was amazing
at everything, she said: “Everything
she cooks turns out perfect”.
Working as a chef had paid the
bills while she studied, but cheffing
also gave an interesting angle
to the things she was learning.
“The molecular biology of science
and food go together really
well. My love of food came first
and science came afterward, so
it was really interesting to apply
those ideas to my cooking.”
She originally worked as a
pastry chef, creating wedding
cakes and “hoity-toity” desserts,
but found herself branching into
other things.
But she said her partner was
facing a round of lay-offs at his
job. He had been to New Zealand
before and loved it, so he asked
her what she thought about moving.
“The States was looking pretty

dire for working professionals,
the outlook felt really bleak. So I
thought I love adventure, I’ll go.”
She applied for residency in
New Zealand before she had even
set foot in the country, and the
minute she did, she said it was
“love at first sight”.
They both found work in
Christchurch and she spent
several years working for different
cafes and restaurants, before she
stumbled by chance on a listing
for a food truck on Trade Me.
The idea of creating a taco truck
was planted, and grew from there,
she said.
She said the food truck worked
well in the post-earthquake environment.
“There’s been a different vibe
after the earthquakes, a much
more creative way of looking at
things. There’s a lot more really
gourmet food, and it has brought
a younger vibe and life to the city
which I find really exciting.”
She said California-style Mexican
food was “punchy and fresh”
and less rich than classic Mexican
food. To create it she had to specially
import a lot of ingredients,
and made most of the sauces by
hand herself.
Her secret ingredient was her
range of vinegars, she said – she
usually kept more than a dozen
different kinds.
“It comes back to the science of
it, really. Many of the things vinegar
does changes the food, but
doesn’t have to taste like vinegar.
Often people won’t know I’ve
used vinegar, they’ll just know it
tastes different somehow.”
But some of her projects had
outgrown the food truck and she
hoped she could expand them in
the restaurant.

Your fresh food people
ROAST KUMARA SALAD WITH
WILD ROCKET DRESSING
Ingredients
2 Red kumara
1 Orange kumara
1 Yellow kumara
4 cloves Garlic, crushed
¼ cup Olive oil
1 cup Frozen broad beans
2 cloves Garlic, crushed
100 g Wild rocket
1 tsp Lemon juice
1 tsp Salt
1 to taste Freshly ground black
pepper
½ cup Avocado oil
Directions
Peel kumara and cut into chunks.
Toss with the garlic and oil to coat
well. Place in a roasting dish and
bake at 200deg C for 30 minutes.
Cook broad beans in boiling
salted water for 2-4 minutes or
until tender. Shell beans and mix
through kumara.
To prepare wild rocket dressing,
blend garlic, rocket, lemon juice,
salt, pepper and avocado oil until
smooth. Toss through the kumara
and beans.
GINGER CORNED BEEF
Ingredients
1½ kg Corned beef
2 ltr Ginger ale
2 tbsp Fresh ginger
2 Chillies
Directions
Place all the ingredients in a pan
(grate ginger and chop chilllies).
Pour over a little extra cold water to
cover the beef, if necessary.
Bring liquid to the boil, then turn
down the heat to a gentle simmer.
Cover pan and simmer beef very
gently for 1 and 1/2 hours.
Remove beef to a carving board
and slice to serve. Can be served hot
or cold.
Tip
Corned beef is whole pieces of beef
that have been cured or “corned” in
seasoned brine (a flavoured salt solution).
Corned beef can be purchased
from butchers and will usually be
labelled “corned silverside”.
When calculating cooking time, as
a rule of thumb you should allow 30
minutes per 500g of corned silverside.

Ingredients
4 Chicken drumsticks
⅓ cup Hoisin sauce
3 tbsp Dark soy sauce
1 tbsp Fresh ginger, grated

Combine the hoisin and soy
sauces in a small bowl with
the ginger and chilli powder.
Pour mixture over the chicken

Gardening Advice with
Congratulations! Today’s winning question came from Cheryl Anglesey
QUESTION: I have just moved into a new place and would like to grow a tree/hedge along my
back and side fence. The back fence has two fairly large trees right up close (in the neighbour’s) and
the side fence has a tree too but not quite so near. I want something that will grow quickly, be hardy
and reasonably easy to maintain.
Be in to win a
PRIZE
PACK!
$95
ANSWER: Now is an ideal time
to plant your hedge or trees. For
Christchurch conditions, there are
a few varieties that would suit.
• Laurus nobilis – ‘Bay Tree’.
This is a hardy and compact
evergreen that also provides
bay leaves for cooking. It can
be easily trimmed to a two,
three or four metre hedge, or
grown as a tree on its own.
• Photinia - ‘Red Robin’. A very
attractive evergreen plant, with deep crimson new leaves in spring. Easy to grow, it
prefers full sun but will still grow in dabbled light. Trim regularly to encourage a dense habit.
• Prunus lusitanica – ‘Portuguese Laurel’. A large evergreen shrub or small tree, it can easily be
pruned to form a dense hedge. It produces attractive white scented flowers in spring and is
hardy in most conditions.
Always prepare the site for your new plants thoroughly by adding Daltons Compost to the existing
soil before and at the time of planting. Other products to try are Daltons Premium Planter Tabs
and Daltons Premium Tree & Shrub Fertiliser.
Check out our How To Grow guides on our website www.daltons.co.nz/how-to-guides
for more helpful tips and advice.
Don’t let frost get to your pruned roses
THERE IS more written about
pruning roses than almost any
other aspect of their care.
Yet, why do we prune our
roses?
Here are a few key reasons:
Encourage new growth and
more blooms. Maintain the
health of the rose by removing
old wood, improve air circulation
within the bush.
Maintain a specific shape,
especially for climbing and
pillar roses, and those that are
pegged down.
Not all roses have the same
need to be pruned, some just
need an annual “going over’’
after flowering to remove the
dead wood. Other roses, most
Portuguese Laurel
notably the highly bred hybrid
teas and floribundas, need regular
pruning. If you garden on
a light, sandy soil then prune
your roses only lightly as they
will not be able to support the
vigorous new growth that hard
pruning encourages.
The time to tackle pruning
is in the winter while they are
dormant, before they burst into
growth. In some areas of New
Zealand, and in some seasons,
there may seem to be almost
no period of dormancy and so
you must choose your moment
carefully. So do not prune when
there is still a risk of severe
frost, as any new growth will be
frosted and die back.
We have Daltons Premium
Rose packs to give away
that include everything
you need to grow
roses with good bloom
strength, colour and
vigour.
Roses are a wonderful
addition to any garden,
low maintenance and
easy to grow. There are
an extensive number of
roses to choose from to
add fragrance and bursts
of colour to your garden.
Send us your
gardening question
to be in to win!
You will have to cut back
to the next bud, reducing the
plant further.
Most bush roses flower on
the current year’s growth.
A hard prune will produce
more vigorous new growth.
Remove the oldest cane on the
plant; this keeps the bush fresh
and vigorous.
Then reduce thick, strong
stems by about half their height.
Thin canes need to be cut back
to one-third their height.
Try to keep the centre of the
plant open. A mess of spindly,
twiggy growth in the middle
of the plant restricts light and
air circulation, encouraging
disease.
Each pack is valued at $95 and contains:
• 2 x Daltons Compost
• Daltons Premium Rose & Flower Fertiliser
• Daltons Premium Tree & Shrub Fertiliser
• Daltons Premium Flower Bed Mix

Kate Sheppard
loud and proud
That Bloody Woman by Luke
Di Somma and Gregory Cooper,
directed by Kip Chapman. The
Court Theatre until 30 July.
Reviewed by Patricia Murchison
YES IT’S loud, but it’s a wonderful,
homegrown rock opera about
Christchurch heroine Kate Sheppard.
Esther Stevens was terrific as Kate.
Her entrance was magical after a
very funny introduction from Amy
Straker and Phoebe Hurst as her
women side kicks. The opening night
audience gasped at the contrast.
Geoffrey Dolan who played Prime
Minister Richard Seddon was a perfect
foil for Kate and her followers.
He was large, devious and determined
women were not going to be
involved in his Parliament.
History shows that the sheer
number of women who signed Kate’s
petition swayed Parliament. There
were quieter moments where Kate’s
private life was spoken/sung about.
Andy Manning led the fantastic
musicians who were such an integral
part of the show.
At the finish, everyone rose and
clapped and cheered for a good 10
minutes.
I’d recommend this loud and happy

SEVERAL OF the
country’s top comedians
are set to perform at the
Lincoln Event Centre in
October.
The Live in Lincoln
event will feature Jeremy
Corbett, host of TV3’s
Seven Days, along with Ben
Hurley, Justine Smith and
Tom Furniss.
Lincoln resident and
promoter David Parlane
organised the show – the
first of several events he
hopes to bring to the town.
Mr Parlane said he had
known Corbett when they
were both working in radio
in Palmerston North in the
1980s.
“He was my first port
of call to be honest, so I
contacted him and said
‘hey, how about we do
something like this comedy
night?’” he said.
“All of a sudden, within
probably a week and a half,
we had got four of the best
comedians in New Zealand
coming to Lincoln.”

was a need for more
activities and events in

“So this is basically the

IT DOESN’T seem all that long
ago that my brother and I used
to park ourselves in front of the
TV early on a Saturday morning
to enjoy Fraggle Rock, Fat
Albert and our favourite locally
produced TV show, What Now.
I loved the presenters, the skits
and only ever dreamed of how
cool it would be to be part of such
a show.
So it was a no-brainer when
the opportunity arose to take my
own girls to be part of the audience
fun.
We rallied some school friends
to join us and my eldest was
lucky enough to be asked to
participate in a game (alongside
Hats off to the What Now crew
two other children) called ‘Use
Ya Head’.
The three of them had to
stand high atop a 3m perch and
catapult balloons of ‘gunge’ (cold,
slimy goo) into the air in order
to ‘land’ as many as possible in
the small buckets strapped to the
heads of their waiting mothers
below.
Not an easy task for a 6-year
Melissa McDonnell
old, but a challenge that was
accepted with gusto. And why
not? What kid wouldn’t seize the
opportunity to freely throw such
muck at their mother for a whole
45 seconds and get away with it.
She absolutely loved it (me, not so
much).
The rest of the morning was
awesome. The show was packed
with adventures, skits, games and
loads of activity.
Huge hats off to the What
Now crew who were not only
extremely professional in their
approach, but such a friendly
and fun bunch of people who
magically navigated through a
potentially chaotic mess of 30
screaming kids to create a
well-oiled and seamless adventure.
Before we knew it, the two
hours were up, and a bunch of
happy children streamed out of
the studio, full of smiles, stories
and energy.
When we got home, we
plonked down in front of the
TV to watch the recorded, final
result.
The girls thought it was
hilarious to catch glimpses of
themselves on the big screen, see
the entire show in its uninterrupted
glory and get a grasp
on how such a programme is
produced.
This was such a fantastic experience
for both me and my girls,
and I especially love that we now
share a memory of an experience
that will forever link us back to
our childhoods.
A big thanks to the What Now
crew for continually bringing
such life and fun into the lives of
us Christchurch kids – you guys
rock.

Star-studded tour of Tinsel Town
• By Mike Yardley
HOLLYWOOD DRIPS with
international glamour.
But how can you break through
the Tinsel Town mystique and
bask in the stardust?
On my most recent visit, I set
myself the mission of staking
out some old-school glamour,
celeb-heavy haunts and trending
hotspots.
All roads lead to the Hollywood
Strip, or “the boulevard of broken
dreams”, as my Red Line walking
tour guide, Michael, preferred to
call it.
Red Line’s Behind the Scenes
tour has become part of Hollywood
folklore, expertly narrated
and spiriting you into many
storied nooks and crannies, that
most tourists miss. www.redlinetours.com/la
After admiring some of the
legendary names lining Hollywood
Boulevard’s Walk of Fame,
Michael ushered us in what I
think is the most unsung vestige
of Hollywood glam: the Egyptian
Theatre.
Extensively restored and earthquake
re-strengthened in recent
years, this picture palace was the
birthplace of the movie premiere
and the movie star.
Built by Sid Grauman in 1922,
he used search lights for a premiere
and it was where red carpet
was first rolled out all the way to
the street.
Egyptian music and incense
wafted through the courtyard,
adding to the Egyptian motif,
which was all the rage, given the
epic excavations and discovery of
King Tut’s tomb.
Inside the theatre, I admired
the two Egyptian dog statues, gifted
by 20th Century Fox, which
featured in Cleopatra, starring
Elizabeth Taylor. The Red Line
Tour is a great way to get inside
this heritage-studded shrine.
Five years later, Sid Grauman
launched another lavish movie
palace, the Chinese Theatre,
which continues to host more
world premieres than any other
theatre on the planet.
I’ve often wondered how the celebrity
hand, and footprints, immortalised
in the forecourt, first
came about. Red Line’s Michael
had the good oil.
Sid Grauman created the first
footprints by mistake – stepping
into wet concrete as his theatre
was being constructed.
The foreman remarked: “Those
footprints are going to be there
forever,” and the rest is history.
Pop into the Hollywood Museum,
housed in the 1930s Max
Factor building, where so many
screen legends were transformed
in the famous make-up rooms.
Lucille Ball, Rita Hayworth, Judy
Garland and Elizabeth Taylor
were all primped and styled here
– as was Marilyn Monroe. It was
here that the brunette became the
blonde bombshell.
Pop into the landmark Hollywood
Roosevelt Hotel, which
is where Shirley Temple learnt
to tap dance and where Marilyn
Monroe’s first magazine shoot
took place, shot by the Tropicana
pool.
That location is now a top celeb
hideaway that you can gain access
too. A true Hollywood oasis, the
poolside Tropicana Café & Bar is
a seductive all-day retreat.
Enjoy a late breakfast or cheeky
cocktail here. A star-studded
haunt for close celebrity encounters
– and the permanent presence
of paparazzi, is The Ivy in
Robertson Boulevard.
It’s a great spot for breakfast or
lunch: order up the cheap and
cheerful homemade buttermilk
pancakes and fresh ginger tea.
If you notice swarms of tourists
photographing the fast food joint,
El Pollo Loco, on the corner of
Serrano Ave and Sunset Boulevard,
the reason is this is where
a struggling young actor named
Brad Pitt, would beckon customers
into the store, dressed up as a
chicken on the roadside. Nearby,
on the Sunset Strip, pop into the
auction house, Bonhams.
They stage regular auctions and
the loot inside this place rivals
a museum. It is the number one
clearing house for second-hand
celebrity goods.
I had a major star moment, in
the elevator of my hotel, The Redbury.
Cyndi Lauper swept into
the lift with her entourage, chatty,
charming and looking half of
her 62 years of age. The Redbury,
a boutique all-suites hotel, sits
across the road from the iconic
Capitol Records building.
Glamorous, colourful and spacious,
the 57 guest suites come
complete with record players and
vinyl collections. I played Duke
Ellington on repeat.
The quirky and eye-catching art
pieces, sprinkled throughout the
property are pure escapism.
I loved the hip Middle Easterninspired
Cleo restaurant and
the indoor-outdoor library for
handcrafted cocktails. Plus there’s
a complimentary BMW house car
available for pick-up or drop-off
within three miles.
Accommodation rates are not
eye-watering – and you never
know who you’ll bump into.

New Christchurch schools
to offer students more
Avonside Girls’ and shirley Boys’ will
be the first single sex secondary schools in
new Zealand’s history to share a campus
– an arrangement their principals say will
enable the schools to offer their students
new opportunities.
The schools are to be built on part of
Qeii Park, next to the Christchurch City
Council’s eastern recreation and sport
Centre.
Avonside Girls’ High school Principal
sue Hume says the campus will be brand
new and state of the art.
“each school will have its own teaching
spaces and students will spend most of
their day in a single sex environment.
That’s important to us. research shows
that single sex education benefits both girls
and boys…boys do better academically
and girls participate more. That’s because
they have space to learn and focus away
from the opposite gender,” says sue Hume.
John laurenson says the new campus is
a step forward.
“Because we are going to work together,
we’ll be able to offer more. For example,
we’ll be sharing some facilities, including
a performing arts auditorium, theatre
and cultural space, which enables us to
build bigger and better assets,” says John
laurenson.
Another benefit is that the students
will be able to interact with and learn
alongside peers from their partner school.
“students from both schools will share
buses to and from the campus, they’ll all
be able to use the café, our new library
and learning centre and our other shared
facilities. This means that not only will
they have all the benefits of a single sex
education, they’ll have social opportunities
not available at other single sex schools,”
says sue Hume.
The Ministry of education is currently
working on how the new schools will
be zoned but the schools are focusing
on catering to residents who live east of
Colombo street.
“Because we will be servicing a wide
area, we will be establishing a network of
buses to service the campus,” says John
laurenson.
Best of all, sue Hume says the new
campus will open in 2019 so is not too far
away.
“in fact many of our current students
will be making the journey to the new
campus with us and those who join our
schools in the next two years will spend
their senior years there. it’s been a long
and sometimes hard road to get to the
new campus, but we are confident we’re on
track to create something even better than
what we had before the earthquakes.”

SCHOOL HOLIDAY ATTRACTIONS
Become a sleuth and
solve a whodunnit!
Mystery NIGht at the Museum takes
place in the July school holidays and
promises a fun time for young detectives
visiting Canterbury Museum during the
four nights of July 12, 14, 19 and 21.
A crime scene in the foyer reveals the
‘Waitaha diamond’ has been stolen.
Following the theme of a ‘whodunnit’
the Museum team have created clues
throughout the galleries leading families
on a journey of discovery as they
eliminate suspects and narrow down their
search for the diamond thief.
The opportunity to win prizes for
themed costumes and for solving the
‘whodunnit’ are a big drawcard.
Children (aged 14 and under) are
invited to take a photo of themselves
dressed as a sleuth, detective or villain
while they are at the Museum, and to post
it on Canterbury Museum’s Facebook
page to be in to win a prize.

holidays will be an excellent time to check it

UFos and Aliens. The royal New zealand
Air Force has been receiving reports of UFo
sightings since 1952, now the Museum is
offering kids the opportunity to come and
join the hunt for them. older kids can have
a go at translating an alien message. each of
the $6 scavenger hunts receives a prize when
completed.

Thursday 14, tuesday 19 and finishes
on Thursday 21 July from 5.30 pm to
8 pm. entry is free, but donations are

HOW TO PLAY
It’s like sudoku: each
vertical and horizontal
line has to contain
the numbers 1-6, and
the numbers can’t be
repeated in any row or
column.
But it’s sudoku with a
twist: The numbers in
each heavily outlined
set of squares, called
cages, must produce the
number in the top corner.
For example, 5+ means
the numbers add up to 5,
9x means the numbers
multiply to equal 9.
TIP: Numbers can be repeated in a cage, as long as they are not in the
same line or row.

Tedesco credits mystery mentor for recovery
James Tedesco says a
secret mentor has helped
him recover from injury to
take a place in the New
South Wales State of Origin
squad for game three next
week.
TEDESCO ENDURED an
equally arduous task recovering
from the mental demons
of debilitating knee injuries as
he did overcoming the physical
aspect of it.
But the 23-year-old told The
Sydney Morning Herald that a
mystery mentor – who he was
referred to by Tigers and NSW
teammate Aaron Woods – has
played a significant part in his
recovery which has led him to
the NSW jersey after 18 months
of hot pursuit.
“He’s someone I started seeing
after all my injuries. He’s really
helped me in my career. He sees
Woodsy (Aaron Woods) every
week as well.
“I think that’s most of the
battle, getting your head space
right.
“I’m feeling confident in my
body and having him to speak
to every week has helped me
mentally,” Tedesco said.
He has endured his fair share
of heartache through what has
been a roller coaster start to his
career.
Few have forgotten the torture
the then teenager suffered being
stretchered off Leichhardt Oval
in the opening minutes of his
debut after rupturing his anterior
cruciate ligament. Then there
was the disappointment of a
shoulder injury on the eve of this
year’s Origin series.
But Tedesco has taken solace
in the mystery mentor who,
despite not possessing a sports
psychologist degree, has managed
to have a positive influence
on the mindset of the players he
comforts.
Tedesco proved too “irresistible”
for Laurie Daley to ignore
after passing up the opportunity
to bring him in for game two at
Suncorp Stadium.
“We had to get [Tedesco] into
the side somewhere and I didn’t
think it would be right putting
him on the wing. He’s a fullback
and deserves a chance.”
Tedesco looked certain to get
in game one, only for another
injury setback to deny him of his
maiden NSW jersey.

Grand final rematch
• By Gordon Findlater
THIS WEEKEND’S round of
the UC Championship will be
headlined by a rematch of last
year’s grand final.
St Bede’s College took the
honours last August, defeating
Shirley Boys 32-13 in the grand
final.
With just four rounds
remaining in the competition
neither side is assured of a spot
in this year’s play-offs.
Shirley looked poised to be
a sure thing for the top four a
fortnight ago, but two successive
losses to Nelson College
and St Thomas in the space
of four days has put a dent in
their armour.
“It’s very difficult when
you’re playing three games
in the space of eight days.
We came back from Nelson
with three frontline forwards
out with injury and illness,”
Shirley Boys’ rugby administrator
John Fox said.
However, Fox is confident
that a shift in mentality from
the team’s last two encounters
can get them back in the win
column.
“We scored in the first five
REMATCH: Shirley Boys and St Bede’s will meet on

minutes against St Thomas and
then relaxed. It just shows how
close this competition is,” Fox
said.
Fatigue won’t be an issue for
St Bede’s who are coming off
their bye weekend, something
coach Gerry Davidson believes
could work in his team’s
favour.
“I think everybody enjoys
their bye weekend. We’ve been
going since the end of April
now and with a couple of
traditional mid-week fixtures
in June, it was nice to have a
break,” Davidson said.
St Bede’s is currently seventh
in the championship. Although
they only have six wins from
10 games, they find themselves
right in the play-off hunt,
three points from a play-off
spot.
“I think for the first time in
a very long time, anyone in the
top eight, or even 10 teams, has
a chance.
“Nobody can take any results
for granted this year,” Davidson
said.
St Bede’s has one member
from last year’s team that won
the UC Championship in this
year’s squad.
Shirley have plenty of boys
with memories of last year’s
final defeat, with 15 players
retained.
Saturday’s grand final rematch
will screen live on CTV
this Saturday.
Kick-off is at 2.45pm from
Shirley Boys’ High.

THE INJURY-HIT Melbourne
Rebels will be sweating on a
batch of fitness tests later this
week as coach Tony McGahan
faces the prospect of fielding a
severely under-strength team
against the Crusaders in Christchurch
on Saturday.
As if the prospect of heading
to New Zealand wasn’t daunting
enough, captain Nic Stirzaker
(ankle), fullback Mike Harris
(ankle) and locks Lopeti Timani
and Luke Jones (both concussion)
will face tests before their
availability is known.
But in somewhat better news
for the now out-of-contention
Rebels, wingers Jonah Placid
(nose) and Sefa Naivalu (leg)
have been declared fit to play
despite coming off early in last
weekend’s home loss to the
Stormers.
The Crusaders will receive
a much needed boost to their
backline with the return of All
Black Ryan Crotty.
follow us on facebook.com/riseupchristchurch
The centre sustained a calf
injury in the final test against
Wales, but is ready to get back
into it after watching his team
mates suffer at the hands of the
Chiefs in Suva.
Captain Kieran Read is
expected to be rested for Saturday’s
game, while All Black prop
Joe Moody is out with a neck
injury.
The Crusaders side to take on
the Rebels will be named later
today.

Driven
Skoda Fabia wagon a
good value purchase
• By Ross Kiddie
THE JUNE 23 referendum
which resulted in Great
Britain’s withdrawal from
the European Union
has taken the world by
surprise.
There will be a long
period of global financial
uncertainty before stability
returns and that will also
affect many aspects of our
down under economies.
In the short term,
imported goods will most
certainly rise, including
motor vehicles, especially
those sourced from
Europe.
That being the case,
there’s probably no better
time to buy a European
car, and if your budget is
a little restricted but you
need a reliable practical
car, Skoda has the answer.
A new Fabia has just
landed and it lists from
$19,990. It arrives here in
three variants, and I was
lucky enough to land a
drive in the range-topping
station wagon which, incidentally,
lists at an amazing
$26,990, making it,
what I believe to be one of
the bargain purchases in
today’s new car market.
The Fabia wagon, or
Combi, as Skoda badge
it, is powered by a 1.2-
litre, four-cylinder engine.
Before you scoff at its
meagre displacement, bear
in mind that it produces
81kW and has a healthy
175Nm of torque thanks
to turbocharged boost. If
you take into account the
areas where peak power
and maximum torque
are developed (4600rpm-
5600rpm and 1400rpm-
4000rpm respectively),
there is an unimpeded
supply of power from
very low in the rev band,
providing a spirited drive
through a seven-speed
direct shift automatic gearbox.
If fuel usage is also an
important buying criteria,
the Fabia Combi is listed
with a 4.8-litre per 100km
(58mpg) combined cycle
average.
You don’t have to try
hard to replicate that, I
wasn’t gentle with the
throttle during my time
in the test car, yet it was
easy to have the fuel usage
readout listing around
6l/100km (47mpg), that
along with an instantaneous
readout of 4.6l/100km
(62mpg) on the highway
cruising a steady 100km/h
(engine speed 2050rpm).
I’ve often written about
SKODA FABIA COMBI: Volkswagen-based engineering.
the Czech Republic’s engineering
prowess, and if
you combined that with
Volkswagen’s manufacturing
ideology of quality and
efficiency you won’t be
disappointed with Fabia.
The entire package is one
of practicality and functionality.
• Price – Skoda Fabia
Combi TSi, $26,990
• Dimensions –
Length, 4257mm;
width, 1732mm;
height, 1467mm
• Configuration: Fourcylinder,
front-wheeldrive,
1197cc, 81kW,
175Nm, seven-speed
automatic.
• Performance –
0-100km/h, 9.6sec
• Fuel usage–
4.8l/100km
Take it’s 505-litre load
space for example, extending
to 1370-litres, the
wagon section is cavernous
for what is deemed to
be a small car. That doesn’t
come at the cost of rear
occupant space, the Fabia
can still be considered a
marginal five-seater, head
and leg room is satisfactory.
Up front it is the same,
the seating position is constantly
comfortable, and
the controls fall readily to
hand. It’s fair to say the
Fabia isn’t overly complicated,
there aren’t a lot of
functions to speak of, but
the essentials are there,
and there is enough kit to
still consider the purchase
a bargain.
I took the test car on
my usual high country
drive beneath the Malvern
Hills and found it to be
a spirited, well-handling
car which quickly endears
itself. Handling-wise it
is directional with quick
turn-in and positive steering
feel. Providing the
grip are 215/45 x 16in
Bridgestone Potenza performance
tyres, what
they lack in size they
make up for in quality,
they are sticky yet also
quiet, even on our coarse
chip seal.
There aren’t any
surprises within the
suspension, but if you
take into account that
the floorpan is essentially
Volkswagen Polo-based,
you can guarantee
a sophisticated ride
along with spring and
damper rates that arrest
body movement when
confronted with a quick
corner or two, and if you
really want to get serious,
a sport suspension package
is available, it also includes
bigger wheels. But even
in standard form the
Fabia wagon is an adept
handler.
Becasue the engine
develops its power low
in the rev band and the
constant supply of gearing
there is a seamless flow
of energy. It is responsive
and willing, easily offering
the performance needed
for a highway overtake or
a quick burst on a hilly
incline. If you take into
account its 9.6sec time
to make 100km/h from a
standstill, it is a spirited
car for the inner-city traffic
light grand prix.
Regular readers will
relate to my enthusiasm
for the traditional station
wagon. Sadly, the sport
utility vehicle has almost
spelt the end of that concept,
but the Fabia Combi
really appealed to me, it
is car that feels just right
from the moment you hop
into it.
I’m hoping that amidst
all the uncertainty in
Europe at the moment that
good cars like the Fabia,
and the hundreds of others
which find their way from
the Continent to New
Zealand, won’t be affected
by Britain’s decision to go
it alone.

Team Lawrence -
the team you can trust
Open homes this weekend
Bishopdale: 23a Egmont Place

downsize option or starter home. Sunny 3 double
bdrms, redecorated with flair. Kitchen includes a large
scullery. Price by negotiation.
Sunday 3-3.30pm
Northwood: 12 Mica Place
The Red Door: Situated in a quiet cul-de-sac is this
large executive, 2-storey, 4 bdrm , 2 bthrm (ensuite/
WIR) and study home. Sunny living areas, good size
section. Double garage. Luxurious living at its best.
Sunday 1-1.30pm
Papanui: 108 Harris Crescent
An investment you'd be a goose to pass up:
4 bdrm, plus 1 bdrm with facilities. Opportunity to earn
while you own. Leasehold land. Priced at $260,000.
Sunday 2-2.30pm
Recent sales
Burwood: 93 Travis Country Drive
14 years old, low maintenance and spacious. 4 bdrms, 2 living areas and
2 bthrms. Plenty of demand for properties of this size in this location.
Rolleston: 30 Lansdowne Way
A great one year old home perfect for the family. Team Lawrence
is thrilled for the new purchasers and their family.
Woolston: 29 Clarendon Terrace
This property was the perfect starter home. A huge number of
inspections over the 3 week marketing campaign but only one lucky
buyer. We have the buyers ready and waiting for similar properties.
