Criminals<br />

target<br />

guns<br />

for big<br />

money<br />

• By Andrew King<br />

STOLEN HANDGUNS<br />

are selling for more than<br />

$1000 on the black market in<br />

Christchurch and shotguns and<br />

rifles for hundreds of dollars.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y have become a an item<br />

of choice for burglars who are<br />

targeting homes where they<br />

know there are firearms.<br />

Police say the illicit trade<br />

drug is fuelling the need for<br />

criminals to arm themselves<br />

and gangs are key players.<br />

Police have set up a task force<br />

of 35 officers to combat the<br />

problem.<br />

Police revealed yesterday,<br />

since March they have executed<br />

175 search warrants in Canterbury,<br />

recovered 87 firearms, and<br />

seized more than $5m of assets<br />

related to criminal offending.<br />

Two more properties were<br />

raided in Bromley and Halswell<br />

yesterday, where firearms and<br />

drugs were found. Two men<br />

were arrested.<br />

Police didn’t have figures<br />

late yesterday as to how many<br />

firearms have been stolen in<br />

Canterbury in recent months.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong> can reveal that<br />

in June alone more than 30<br />

firearms were stolen from properties<br />

in Greenpark, Leeston,<br />

Lower Styx and Avonside. <strong>The</strong>y<br />

included high-powered rifles,<br />

shotguns and . 22 calibre rifles.<br />

Canterbury University criminologist<br />

Professor Greg Newbold<br />

said handguns were going<br />

for more than $1000 on the<br />

black market because they were<br />

relatively difficult to obtain.<br />

“Shotguns and .22 rifles are<br />

the most commonly used in<br />

crimes and can be brought for<br />

a couple of hundred dollars.<br />

Pistols can be over $1000,” Prof<br />

Newbold said.<br />

Gun owners needed to store<br />

firearms securely, he said.<br />

“Guns are pretty hard to steal<br />

when they are stored properly<br />

. . . if they are being stolen from<br />

rural properties I would suggest<br />

they are not being stored<br />

correctly,” he said.<br />

THIS WEEK IN CANTERBURY’S PAST<br />

This week in history saw the opening of Lincoln College<br />

on <strong>July</strong> 19, 1880. It was the first agricultural college in the<br />

Southern Hemisphere. On <strong>July</strong> 19, 1988, Jock Orr, nicknamed<br />

‘<strong>The</strong> Birdman’ after befriending birds in Cathedral Square,<br />

died. On <strong>July</strong> 20, 1851, the first church in Christchurch<br />

opened – later dedicated as St Michael and All Angels in<br />

1859. On <strong>July</strong> 20, 1983, Canterbury defeated North Otago<br />

88-0 in a record Ranfurly Shield score at Lancaster Park.<br />

After heavy snow (175mm) on <strong>July</strong> 22, 1918, Christchurch<br />

experienced its coldest day on record. <strong>The</strong> temperature didn’t<br />

rise above 1 deg C. On <strong>July</strong> 23, 1851, pioneer William Deans<br />

was among 28 lost in the wreck of the Maria in Cook Strait.<br />

Contractors restoring the historic Sign<br />

an unexpected find. <strong>The</strong> contractors<br />

were working on the roof when they<br />

uncovered a message on its lining<br />

which read: ‘If we had of known you<br />

were coming we’d of baked a cake.’<br />

<strong>The</strong> lyrics come from a 1950s Eileen<br />

Barton song. <strong>The</strong> city council says<br />

it is likely the message was written<br />

by tradies when they worked on the<br />

Policewoman’s trailblazing days relived<br />

• By Tom Doudney<br />

WHEN ROSALIE Sterritt QSM<br />

joined the police in 1948, woman<br />

officers wore plain clothes, were<br />

expected to deal only with female<br />

offenders and battled for respect<br />

from their male colleagues.<br />

Canterbury police celebrated<br />

75 years of women in emergency<br />

services at a Hagley Park event<br />

yesterday.<br />

Although she didn’t feel like<br />

a trailblazer at the time, Miss<br />

Sterritt, 91, looks back at those<br />

early years as a long slow fight for<br />

acceptance.<br />

A national torch relay arrived<br />

in Christchurch yesterday and a<br />

‘blue light barbecue’ was held in<br />

Hagley Park.<br />

By the time Miss Sterritt<br />

retired in 1985, as a senior constable,<br />

she was New Zealand’s<br />

longest serving police officer – a<br />

record she still holds.<br />

She was pleased to see that<br />

women today were treated as<br />

equals and believed it was a<br />

matter of time until a woman<br />

became commissioner.<br />

Her father, Constable David<br />

Sterritt, had been a mounted policeman<br />

and she decided to join<br />

the fourth intake of policewomen<br />

while working at the Kaikoura<br />

Hospital office.<br />

MEMORIES: Rosalie<br />

Sterritt keeps a<br />

scrapbook full of<br />

articles relating to<br />

herself and women<br />

police officers which<br />

she has collated over<br />

the years. ​<br />

“I don’t think my parents were<br />

very happy with the idea,” she<br />

said.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>y thought it might be too<br />

much rough and tumble, probably.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> women were given limited<br />

duties in those days.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>y wanted to just shove<br />

us in offices on phone duty and<br />

district office records,” she said.<br />

“If we went out on a job with a<br />

man, even though I might have<br />

been senior in service, because he<br />

was a man he was considered to<br />

be my senior. It was stupid.”<br />

Miss Sterritt remembered woman<br />

officers being issued handbags<br />

and being required to leave the<br />

force if they got married.<br />

emergency services was held in Hagley Park yesterday.<br />

Trustee role<br />

for Sutton<br />

• By Gabrielle Stuart<br />

FORMER Canterbury<br />

Earthquake Recovery chief<br />

executive Roger Sutton has a<br />

new role as an Anglican church<br />

trustee.<br />

He has been appointed one of<br />

eight trustees on the Anglican<br />

Diocese of<br />

Christchurch<br />

Church Property<br />

Trust.<br />

Mr Sutton<br />

(right) resigned<br />

from his role<br />

at CERA in<br />

November, 2014,<br />

after a senior<br />

staff member laid a sexual harassment<br />

complaint against him.<br />

A State Services Commission<br />

inquiry found Mr Sutton’s conduct<br />

was sexual harassment, but<br />

that he did not intend to cause<br />

offence. It recommended that he<br />

was given a final warning, but he<br />

resigned soon afterward.<br />

Bishop Victoria Matthews,<br />

who is chair of the trust, said Mr<br />

Sutton was interviewed for the<br />

position and appointed after a<br />

unanimous vote.<br />

“We are thrilled by what he is<br />

offering CPT in terms of talent<br />

and skill,” she said.<br />

Church slammed<br />

Developer<br />

asks why<br />

the secrecy<br />

• By Gabrielle Stuart<br />

THE ANGLICAN church has<br />

been slammed for refusing to<br />

answer any questions about<br />

the Christ Church Cathedral<br />

until December.<br />

On Monday, <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong> asked<br />

for details of the proposals put<br />

to the diocese for protecting<br />

the Cathedral until a decision<br />

is made about it’s future.<br />

But diocese spokesman Jayson<br />

Rhodes refused to answer<br />

the questions.<br />

He said he would not be<br />

commenting on anything<br />

about the Cathedral until<br />

after December 7, when the<br />

working party is due to come<br />

back with its recommendations.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> working group is the<br />

focus now and we see no need<br />

to have to comment on anything<br />

else until that time.”<br />

He told <strong>The</strong> Press the same<br />

thing.<br />

Central city developer Ernest<br />

Duval said although the<br />

church as a private entity had<br />

the right to keep quiet, it was<br />

hurting the community.<br />

He said there should be<br />

nothing to hide, so no need to<br />

block the public out.<br />

“It’s not plans for a nuclear<br />

bomb or an invasion of Australia,<br />

it’s not a big secret, it’s<br />

just a church. It shouldn’t be<br />

this difficult.”<br />

He said more information<br />

even just about the process<br />

would help central city business<br />

owners and developers<br />

trying to make their own<br />

plans.<br />

“Neither the Crown or<br />

the church is prepared to be<br />

forthcoming, so the community<br />

of Christchurch and<br />

particularly the stakeholders<br />

around the square are left<br />

with nothing.”<br />

Former mayor Bob Parker,<br />

who was involved in early<br />

negotiations with the church,<br />

said he believed the church<br />

should be more open with the<br />

public.<br />

But he believed it was<br />

frustration with the “whole<br />

saga” that had led them to<br />

clam up.<br />

“I feel for the church. <strong>The</strong>y<br />

must feel they have been<br />

bullied by one section of the<br />

community telling them what<br />

to do, so I have some sympathy<br />

with that,” he said.<br />

$800 a day for<br />

working party<br />

• By Gabrielle Stuart<br />

MEMBERS OF the working party tasked<br />

with looking into different options for<br />

the Cathedral are being paid $800 a day.<br />

<strong>The</strong> chairman of the working party,<br />

former NZ Transport Agency chief executive<br />

Geoff Dangerfield<br />

(right), is paid $1000 a<br />

day.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y are expected to<br />

meet about two days a<br />

month.<br />

Other members of the<br />

working party are <strong>The</strong> Tannery developer<br />

Alasdair Cassels, business consultant<br />

Sue McKenzie and Anglican Church<br />

Property Trust board members Steve<br />

Wakefield and Roger Bridge.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y have been appointed to look thoroughly<br />

into “reinstatement options” for<br />

the Cathedral, and what different options<br />

will cost.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y will then put it together in a report<br />

to the Government and church, due<br />

by December 7 this year.<br />

A Department of the Prime Minister<br />

and Cabinet spokesman said the fees<br />

were set with the Cabinet fees framework.<br />

“[<strong>The</strong>y] are set at an appropriate level<br />

to ensure the group has suitable expertise<br />

and experience, and to recognise the<br />

complexity of the task and strong public<br />

interest in the group’s work.”<br />

A site blessing ceremony was<br />

held on Sunday to get repairs<br />

About 200 people gathered for<br />

the ceremony where Bishop Victoria<br />

Matthews sprinkled holy<br />

water around the site and inside<br />

the church, and blessed it.<br />

a small part of the city’s oldest<br />

stone church to help raise the<br />

$2 million needed to restore<br />

it.<br />

St Peter’s Anglican Church in<br />

Upper Riccarton was severely<br />

damaged in the February 2011<br />

building, and injecting specialist<br />

grout into the core of all the<br />

walls to increase the strength<br />

and resilience of the building.<br />

Work is expected to take six<br />

months.<br />

<strong>The</strong> category 1 heritage church<br />

was originally built as a memorial<br />

church honouring those<br />

who died in World War 1.<br />

<strong>The</strong> repairs would cost about<br />

$3 million, with the parish<br />

needing to raise $1.6 million of<br />

that. It has raised $1.2 million<br />

so far.<br />

million to restore it back<br />

to its former glory. It has<br />

received $2 million from<br />

insurance, and needs to raise<br />

Tuesday the fundraising would<br />

begin in the next month.<br />

As part of the fundraising,<br />

people could pay $500-$1000<br />

for a stone used in the church’s<br />

restoration.<br />

<strong>The</strong> church would also apply<br />

for grants, and planned on<br />

writing to all the St Peter’s<br />

churches in the world to see if<br />

they would like to contribute.<br />

That included St Peter’s<br />

Basilica in Vatican City.<br />

was built in 1858, and the wood<br />

was replaced with stone in the<br />

Flooding in Canty could be costly<br />

• By Shelley Robinson<br />

GRIM PROJECTIONS show<br />

the large cost of an extreme<br />

flood event and future sea level<br />

increases on buildings and<br />

homes.<br />

In the worst case scenario,<br />

a 1m sea-level rise leaves the<br />

city with $380 million worth<br />

of “reinstatement” damage –<br />

buildings repairs, vehicles and<br />

clean-up costs.<br />

<strong>The</strong> worst hit suburbs will be<br />

South Brighton, New Brighton,<br />

Avondale, Moncks Bay and<br />

Aranui. In lower sea level rise<br />

scenarios, river flooding will<br />

become a problem in Beckenham<br />

and St Martins.<br />

It comes at a time when<br />

insurers may not provide cover<br />

in extreme cases if risk has not<br />

been not mitigated, because the<br />

frequency of flooding may deem<br />

it a “foreseeable” risk,<br />

said Parliamentary<br />

Commissioner for the<br />

Environment Dr Jan Wright.<br />

With a 1m sea level rise, $380<br />

million in reinstatement costs<br />

would be required and people<br />

would be displaced from 2337<br />

buildings across the city. At<br />

500mm, reinstatement costs<br />

would be $105.2 million with 507<br />

buildings affected, and with no<br />

sea level rise, $98 million with<br />

456 buildings affected.<br />

<strong>The</strong> data was prepared<br />

for the city council by the<br />

National Institute of Water and<br />

Atmospheric Research. <strong>The</strong><br />

report combined sea level rise<br />

with extreme flooding, known as<br />

a one in 500-year event.<br />

But the real cost could be<br />

double if business interruption<br />

and infrastructure damage are<br />

included.<br />

“A crude rule of thumb is that<br />

overall losses are often double<br />

the reinstatement costs,” said the<br />

report.<br />

If the residential red zone<br />

was rebuilt, losses would be<br />

between three and 10 times<br />

greater.<br />

NIWA used hazard impact<br />

and loss modelling software<br />

called RiskScape. It overlaid last<br />

year’s property and building data<br />

coupled with draft city council<br />

high flood hazard management<br />

COSTLY: South<br />

Brighton, New<br />

Brighton and<br />

Moncks Bay will<br />

take the biggest<br />

financial hit in<br />

the event of an<br />

extreme flooding<br />

event and 1m sea<br />

level rise, NIWA<br />

modelling has<br />

shown.<br />

maps, adding in sea level rise<br />

scenarios. Stop banks are<br />

expected to have failed and the<br />

flooding occurs at night with no<br />

warning or a short lead in time.<br />

Dr Wright said the sea level is<br />

projected to increase by about<br />

300mm by 2065.<br />

This means “100-year events”,<br />

like the flooding that struck the<br />

city in March 2014, will occur<br />

more often. In Christchurch, this<br />

means once a year by 2065, and<br />

with “every tide” when the sea<br />

rises 1m, she said.<br />

<strong>The</strong> insurance industry<br />

was therefore considering<br />

whether the effects of sea level<br />

rise, erosion and flooding are<br />

becoming such a “foreseeable<br />

risk” that cover could be<br />

affected, said Dr Wright.<br />

“[Insurance companies] insure<br />

against risk that is unforeseen,<br />

but this [flooding and sea level<br />

rise] is becoming a foreseen risk.<br />

Over time, insurers will go, well,<br />

this is getting pretty predictable<br />

and we are not going to cover it,”<br />

she said.<br />

Insurance Council of New<br />

Zealand chief executive Tim<br />

Grafton said if floods were<br />

“frequent”, like in Flockton<br />

Basin, insurers could raise the<br />

excess and premiums or not<br />

provide cover in “extreme cases”.<br />

“[Insurers] are in the business<br />

of cover for the sudden<br />

unexpected occurrences. That’s<br />

where you might see companies<br />

as a last resort not providing<br />

cover,” he said.<br />

But if mitigation measures are<br />

undertaken – similar to that in<br />

the Flockton Basin – to lessen<br />

the risk of flooding, insurers<br />

would respond accordingly<br />

because the risk is less, he said.<br />

Councillors warned not to<br />

repeat ‘mistakes of the past’<br />

THERE<br />

• By Gabrielle Stuart<br />

THE CITY council is defending<br />

it’s decision to renegotiate how<br />

much it spends on anchor<br />

projects, in spite of being warned<br />

it is “repeating the mistakes of the<br />

past”.<br />

Mayor Lianne Dalziel and the<br />

current city councillors have<br />

often complained their hands<br />

are tied over the city council’s<br />

finances.<br />

This occurred because former<br />

mayor Bob Parker’s city council<br />

committed them to spend set<br />

amounts on major projects<br />

through the cost-sharing agreement<br />

with Government.<br />

However, the current city councillors<br />

plan to do the same thing<br />

to the next batch of councillors.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y are currently in discussions<br />

with Government over the<br />

agreement, and expect to sign the<br />

new version by August, before the<br />

October elections.<br />

<strong>The</strong> current agreement includes<br />

city council commitments of<br />

almost $147 million to the Metro<br />

Sports Facility, $60 million to the<br />

new Central Library and $253<br />

NEGOTIATION: <strong>The</strong> city council and Government are currently<br />

renegotiating the cost sharing agreement. ​<br />

million toward a new stadium.<br />

Ms Dalziel said the discussions<br />

were not a significant renegotiation,<br />

but they were “tidying the<br />

agreement up”.<br />

She did not answer questions<br />

from <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong> about what the<br />

consequences would be if the review<br />

was delayed, or whether she<br />

would consider delaying it until<br />

after the elections.<br />

Cr Raf Manji said delaying the<br />

discussions would be likely to<br />

hold up projects like the Metro<br />

Sports Facility.<br />

Cr Jamie Gough was part of the<br />

former city council which signed<br />

the agreement.<br />

He said it would be difficult<br />

to postpone the renegotiation,<br />

because it would take time for the<br />

new city councillors to “get their<br />

heads around the problems” after<br />

they were elected.<br />

If there were any major changes<br />

proposed to projects, he said he<br />

would vote for the renegotiation<br />

to be delayed.<br />

“If there are significant changes,<br />

it would be absurd for council<br />

VOTE TO HAVE YOUR<br />

SAY ON THE FUTURE OF<br />

CHRISTCHURCH.<br />

Enrol by 12 August at elections.org.nz<br />

to sign that off and I don’t think<br />

anyone would want to do that.”<br />

Keep Our Assets Canterbury<br />

convener Murray Horton said no<br />

matter the scale of the negotiations,<br />

the new city councillors<br />

would have to work with the new<br />

agreement when putting together<br />

budgets each year, so they needed<br />

to have a say.<br />

“This is a big, major decision<br />

which needs to be done properly,<br />

because these anchor projects<br />

will set the structure of the city<br />

for years to come.”<br />

Former community board<br />

member Rod Cameron, who is<br />

running for council this year,<br />

said the city councillors were<br />

repeating the mistakes of the<br />

past.<br />

He believed they should wait<br />

until the new council was elected,<br />

even if it meant projects were<br />

delayed.<br />

“What’s another six months<br />

when we’ve been waiting five and<br />

a half, almost six years? It’s worth<br />

being able to take that time and<br />

assess things. A rushed decision<br />

is not always the best one to<br />

take.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong><br />

Massive rates<br />

relief revealed<br />

ARE two filing cabinets<br />

at city council filled with<br />

requests for rates relief due to<br />

the earthquakes – amounting to<br />

$16 million.<br />

After the February 22, 2011<br />

earthquake, property owners<br />

were offered rates relief if their<br />

properties were left uninhabitable.<br />

About 8000 homes were redzoned<br />

by the Government after<br />

the earthquake.<br />

Information released under<br />

the Official Information Act<br />

showed that the city council had<br />

granted more than $16 million<br />

in rates remissions as a consequence<br />

of the February 22, 2011<br />

earthquake.<br />

Due to the sheer number of<br />

applications, the city council<br />

were not able to definitively find<br />

out how many properties had<br />

been granted a rates remission.<br />

It would take, estimated the city<br />

council, two weeks of staff time.<br />

But it estimated that it had<br />

processed about 8000 requests,<br />

of which 90 per cent were approved.<br />

<strong>The</strong> city council said<br />

this gave an average of about<br />

$2000 per property.<br />

“But the amount will vary<br />

considerably between different<br />

properties,” said the response.<br />

GEONET APP<br />

GeoNet helps us all to make<br />

our communities safer.<br />

We live in the shaky isles and that means we need a high-tech<br />

monitoring system to detect and measure geological hazards<br />

like earthquakes.<br />

Fifteen years ago, the Earthquake Commission collaborated<br />

with GNS Science to create the world leading GeoNet system.<br />

Today, its skilled team uses a network of more than 600 sensors<br />

across New Zealand to detect, analyse and respond to<br />

earthquakes, volcanic activity and other geological hazards.<br />

<strong>The</strong> successful partnership between EQC and GNS continues<br />

to thrive. EQC currently provides around $12 million a year in<br />

funding. In turn, GeoNet data helps EQC to assess the risks<br />

from natural hazards, and that helps keep Kiwi household levies<br />

affordable at 15c for every $100 worth of cover.<br />

GeoNet informs New Zealanders about natural hazards.<br />

Its data is vital to many diverse users from power providers and<br />

air traffic controllers to forest owners and insurers. <strong>The</strong> quality<br />

and availability of GeoNet data also attracts some of the best<br />

brains in the world, giving a boost to local research that would<br />

otherwise not be possible.<br />

GeoNet is part of EQC’s research and education programme.<br />

Concern delays may<br />

stall Timeball rebuild<br />

• By Annabelle Dick<br />

LYTTELTON residents are<br />

worried the delay on the<br />

Timeball Station rebuild<br />

may cause the project to be<br />

abandoned altogether.<br />

Work to restore the station<br />

has been postponed<br />

due to nearby road works<br />

which will block access<br />

until at least the end of the<br />

year.<br />

Heritage New Zealand<br />

was set to start the rebuild<br />

this month but re-scheduled<br />

to avoid conflict with<br />

road works on Sumner Rd<br />

and Reserve Tce.<br />

But Lyttelton Community<br />

Association president<br />

Ken Maynard said residents<br />

are worried that the<br />

delay may mean the restoration<br />

work is forgotten.<br />

“If they put it on the<br />

back burner, we’re worried<br />

the project is going to be<br />

dropped altogether.”<br />

Mr Maynard has been<br />

in contact with Heritage<br />

New Zealand who assured<br />

him they were not stalling<br />

with a view to drop it, and<br />

it was doing restoration<br />

on the equipment in the<br />

background.<br />

Heritage New Zealand<br />

has not been able to indicate<br />

an exact date as to<br />

when work will begin, as<br />

it needs to know when the<br />

site can be accessed.<br />

While the work on<br />

Reserve Tce is scheduled to<br />

be completed by the end of<br />

this year, work on the Lyttelton<br />

end of Sumner Rd<br />

is currently scheduled to<br />

continue well into 2017.<br />

Heritage New Zealand<br />

acting southern region<br />

general manager Frank<br />

van der Heijden said<br />

repairs can only be done<br />

in spring or summer as the<br />

stone masonry work uses<br />

traditional lime mortar<br />

and render, which could<br />

only be set properly outside<br />

of winter.<br />

Mr Maynard said road<br />

works are a priority, but he<br />

wants a date so residents<br />

can be assured work will<br />

go ahead.<br />

“What I can’t understand<br />

is why won’t they say when<br />

they’re going to start? If<br />

they can’t start this spring<br />

due to the roads, why can’t<br />

they say it will be started<br />

by October 2017? It’s a long<br />

way off but at least it’s a<br />

date.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> station was constructed<br />

in 1876 as a time<br />

keeping device for ships in<br />

the harbour, but was badly<br />

damaged during the September<br />

4, 2010 and February<br />

22, 2011 earthquakes.<br />

Mr Maynard said the<br />

category one heritage<br />

building is a crucial part of<br />

Lyttelton’s identity and a<br />

major tourist attraction for<br />

the area.<br />

NEGLECTED: Sol Square was in a derelict state not long before fire destroyed the building.<br />

PHOTOS: URBEX CENTRAL<br />

Sol Square’s shabby<br />

state before the fire<br />

• By Gabrielle Stuart<br />

URBEX CENTRAL “urban<br />

explorers” has released what are<br />

possibly the last photographs<br />

taken of Sol Square before it was<br />

gutted in a fire last week.<br />

<strong>The</strong> photos were posted online<br />

on <strong>July</strong> 9, less than a week before<br />

the fire, which is believed to have<br />

been deliberately lit.<br />

<strong>The</strong> photographer, who did<br />

not want to be named, said the<br />

square was “derelict”.<br />

“We found the place was rather<br />

trashed and the place felt severely<br />

neglected. <strong>The</strong>re were remnants<br />

of people squatting and a lot of<br />

graffiti.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> future of Sol Square has<br />

been uncertain since developer<br />

Dave Henderson’s company<br />

Property Ventures Ltd was put<br />

into liquidation in 2010.<br />

Disputes over the buildings<br />

were still being fought in court<br />

earlier this year.<br />

Other developers have put<br />

their hands up to take the project<br />

on, but their attempts stalled<br />

because of the disputes.<br />

<strong>The</strong> fire left one of the buildings<br />

so unstable it had to be<br />

demolished on Saturday.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Urbex Central pictures can<br />

be found on their website www.<br />

urbexcentral.com<br />

Members of the group have<br />

been threatened with charges for<br />

sneaking into abandoned buildings,<br />

including the Christ Church<br />

New political group eyes<br />

local body elections<br />

• By Bridget Rutherford<br />

A NEW political<br />

group has<br />

emerged to<br />

fight for seats in<br />

the local body<br />

elections in<br />

October.<br />

Community Voice will stand<br />

candidates in the Cashmere and<br />

Spreydon wards.<br />

Rik Tindall (above), a current<br />

Spreydon-Heathcote Community<br />

Board member will stand in<br />

the Cashmere Ward.<br />

Political newbie Patricia<br />

Siataga will stand in the Spreydon<br />

Ward.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y will campaign on issues<br />

surrounding the future of <strong>The</strong><br />

Princess Margaret Hospital.<br />

• By Bridget Rutherford<br />

CITY COUNCILLOR Paul<br />

Lonsdale will vie<br />

for a seat around<br />

the council table in<br />

the new Heathcote<br />

Ward.<br />

Cr Lonsdale,<br />

who ran for mayor<br />

<strong>The</strong>y want the hospital to be<br />

turned into high-density housing<br />

and a 24-hour health service.<br />

Mr Tindall said there was a lot<br />

of need for housing in the city<br />

and the hospital site would be<br />

perfect.<br />

“We will want the site for high<br />

density housing,” he said.<br />

However, Lee Sampson, who<br />

is standing for the Cashmere-<br />

Spreydon Community Board<br />

under <strong>The</strong> People’s Choice, said<br />

housing at the site would congest<br />

Cashmere Rd further.<br />

City councillor Phil Clearwater,<br />

who will stand for council<br />

under <strong>The</strong> People’s Choice in<br />

Cashmere, said there would<br />

need to be a lot of assessment on<br />

whether high-density housing<br />

could work at the site.<br />

Lonsdale for Heathcote<br />

in the last elections, was initially<br />

tossing up whether to stand in<br />

the Central or Heathcote wards.<br />

He currently lives in the new<br />

Fendalton Ward, but was in the<br />

process of building a new family<br />

home in Mt Pleasant.<br />

He told <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong> he would<br />

stand in Heathcote as he had<br />

done a lot of work in the area.<br />

Tributes for young rugby player<br />

• By Bridget Rutherford<br />

A PROMISING rugby player has lost<br />

his battle with a rare form of cancer<br />

about two and a half weeks after he<br />

was diagnosed.<br />

Uto Enosi Tuipulotu, 19, died<br />

last Thursday night after a short battle<br />

with soft tissue sarcoma on his<br />

heart.<br />

His funeral was held yesterday at<br />

Akaroa Area School, where he went<br />

to school.<br />

Uto came over to<br />

Akaroa from Tonga<br />

four years ago to attend<br />

high school and<br />

further his education.<br />

He went on to become<br />

a building apprentice<br />

for Templeton Builders.<br />

He had been having<br />

trouble with a racing heart while at<br />

rugby training, and went for a check<br />

up, which was when they found the<br />

cancerous growth.<br />

His boss, Kevin Templeton, said<br />

Uto began working for him while he<br />

was at school.<br />

He said Uto wanted to go back<br />

to Tonga when he was a qualified<br />

builder and help people in need by<br />

building and repairing homes and<br />

facilities.<br />

“He touched just about everybody,<br />

just with his mana and personality,”<br />

Mr Templeton said.<br />

‘He just had this<br />

quiet, humble<br />

dignity about<br />

him that people<br />

revered.’<br />

“He was one in a million.”<br />

Mr Templeton said Uto was someone<br />

they could count on, and he was<br />

always helping the Akaroa and Bays<br />

Lions Club.<br />

Uto’s former teacher, Garry Brittenden,<br />

who helped bring him over,<br />

said Uto had been diagnosed about<br />

two and a half weeks before he passed<br />

away.<br />

“He just had this quiet humble dignity<br />

about him that people revered.<br />

That’s the real Uto<br />

story.”<br />

More than $25,000<br />

was raised through a<br />

Givealittle page and<br />

donations to go towards<br />

Uto’s treatment and<br />

bringing his family over<br />

from Tonga to be with<br />

him.<br />

Uto joined the Akaroa Volunteer<br />

Fire Brigade while he was at school.<br />

In 2014, he made the New Zealand<br />

Barbarians area schools team, which<br />

played the Chiefs under-18s.<br />

He has also played for the Canterbury<br />

Country and Ellesmere representative<br />

teams, and was a Lincoln<br />

colts player this year.<br />

He was named Ellesmere under-19<br />

player of the year in 2015.<br />

Ellesmere’s under-16, 18, <strong>21</strong> and<br />

senior teams honoured Uto with a<br />

minute’s silence before their games<br />

on Saturday.<br />

MULTI-TALENTED: Uto<br />

made the New Zealand<br />

Barbarians area schools<br />

team in 2014 and was<br />

in the Akaroa Volunteer<br />

Fire Brigade when he<br />

was at school.<br />

TRIBUTE: A memorial<br />

(above) has been set<br />

up next to Akaroa’s<br />

waterfront to honour<br />

Uto. (Left) Ellesmere<br />

$12m for Lake Ellesmere<br />

clean-up ‘not enough’<br />

• By Tom Doudney<br />

A $12 MILLION programme<br />

to clean up Te Waihora/Lake<br />

Ellesmere won’t be enough and<br />

irrigation schemes like Central<br />

Plains Water will make the<br />

situation worse, a water expert<br />

says.<br />

Dr Bryan<br />

Jenkins (left)<br />

of the Waterways<br />

Centre<br />

for Freshwater<br />

Management<br />

recently<br />

completed a study of six New<br />

Zealand lakes, including Te<br />

Waihora.<br />

Environment Canterbury<br />

and Ngai Tahu, in partnership<br />

with the Government,<br />

are leading the $12 million<br />

Whakaora Te Waihora programme<br />

to restore the lake<br />

over the coming decades by<br />

encouraging the growth of<br />

macrophytes – aquatic plants<br />

which can improve water quality.<br />

Dr Jenkins said that while<br />

this and other efforts to reduce<br />

nutrient loads in the lake’s<br />

catchment were positive,<br />

they would be insufficient<br />

to achieve sustainable water<br />

quality due to intensification<br />

which had taken place in the<br />

catchment.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re was already too much<br />

nitrogen and phosphorus<br />

carried by groundwater-fed<br />

streams entering the lake.<br />

With Central Plains Water<br />

and other intensification in<br />

the catchment it was estimated<br />

that the nitrogen load entering<br />

the lake would reach 5600<br />

tonnes per year.<br />

Dr Jenkins said the Selwyn<br />

Waihora Zone Committee’s<br />

‘good management practice’<br />

approach would cut that to<br />

follow us on facebook.com/riseupchristchurch<br />

4800 tonnes per year but for<br />

the goal of transforming it<br />

into a macrophyte lake to be<br />

achieved, nitrogen would need<br />

to be cut to more like 800<br />

tonnes per year.<br />

“What we are currently<br />

experiencing is already unacceptable<br />

not only in terms of<br />

the lake load but also in terms<br />

of the impacts occurring on<br />

groundwater with respect to<br />

drinking water quality and on<br />

groundwater-fed stream flow,”<br />

Dr Jenkins said.<br />

ECan acting science director<br />

Tim Davie said Dr Jenkins’<br />

figures, while not incorrect,<br />

were selective and missed the<br />

point.<br />

CONCERN:<br />

Experts say<br />

there is already<br />

too much<br />

nitrogen and<br />

phosphorus<br />

carried by<br />

groundwaterfed<br />

streams<br />

entering Lake<br />

Ellesmere.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>re are many different<br />

proposed interventions, not<br />

just nitrogen reduction,” Mr<br />

Davie said.<br />

“If you tried to achieve a<br />

macrophyte-dominated lake<br />

purely by reducing nitrogen<br />

then a nitrogen load of 800<br />

tonnes per year would be required.<br />

However, if there<br />

is a range of other interventions,<br />

such as phosphorus<br />

reduction and stabilised lake<br />

level, then a macrophyte-dominated<br />

lake can be achieved<br />

with higher nitrogen concentrations.”<br />

Central Plains Water chief<br />

executive Derek Crombie was<br />

unavailable for comment.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong><br />

Viewpoint<br />

THE ANGLICAN Diocese is<br />

sadly out of touch still with<br />

Cantabrians over the future of<br />

the Christ Church Cathedral.<br />

<strong>The</strong> building is a constant<br />

sad reminder of what happened<br />

on February 22, 2011 – and to<br />

many now an eyesore, a blight<br />

on the Square as business and<br />

tourism tries its best to get back<br />

on its feet.<br />

<strong>The</strong> diocese’s communication<br />

skills in keeping the public<br />

informed of what is happening<br />

has been appalling; deciding<br />

whether the Cathedral is to be<br />

restored or demolished, slow<br />

and painful.<br />

Comments this week from<br />

the diocese’s Auckland-based<br />

spokesman, Jayson Rhodes, has<br />

done nothing to boost the city’s<br />

confidence.<br />

Asked by <strong>The</strong> Press this week<br />

about the Cathedral, Rhodes<br />

replied: “<strong>The</strong> Diocese sees no<br />

need for any questions and answers<br />

regarding the Cathedral<br />

until there is a decision from<br />

the Cathedral Working Group.”<br />

That will be December 7.<br />

He repeated the same to <strong>The</strong><br />

<strong>Star</strong>.<br />

Two weeks ago, there was<br />

an air of expectation when the<br />

diocese announced it was holding<br />

a news conference about the<br />

Cathedral.<br />

<strong>The</strong> announcement was on<br />

the same day <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong> published<br />

a front page article revealing<br />

Cathedral<br />

group say<br />

they are<br />

muzzled<br />

• By Gabrielle Stuart<br />

PHILIP BURDON and Jim<br />

Anderton say they have been<br />

gagged from talking publicly<br />

about the future of Christ Church<br />

Cathedral.<br />

<strong>The</strong> former MPs, who are<br />

trying to save the Cathedral from<br />

demolition, signed confidentially<br />

contracts in September last year<br />

preventing them speaking about<br />

a report carried out by Miriam<br />

Dean QC into the arguments over<br />

whether to save or demolish the<br />

building.<br />

That lapsed after the report was<br />

released late last year, but this<br />

week they told <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong> they were<br />

still told not to talk.<br />

<strong>The</strong> gagging order came to light<br />

this week when <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong> asked the<br />

two former MPs for an update on<br />

the Cathedral.<br />

Mr Burdon said he could not<br />

talk about anything involved in<br />

the process.<br />

“[Gerry] Brownlee’s<br />

office has requested complete<br />

confidentiality, and accordingly<br />

we respect his complete<br />

confidentiality and it is entirely<br />

up to his office to decide what<br />

information, if any, they wish to<br />

release,” he said.<br />

But yesterday, Mr Brownlee’s<br />

office threw confusion on the<br />

gagging order when it referred<br />

questions from <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong> about<br />

the confidentiality issue to<br />

the Department of the Prime<br />

Minister and Cabinet.<br />

Rise Up Christchurch<br />

Choose<br />

custom made<br />

to fit your<br />

home and<br />

This was a departure from<br />

previous stances when they<br />

have openly talked about the<br />

need to save the iconic building.<br />

So when the diocese announced<br />

the news conference,<br />

there was a thought that the veil<br />

of silence would be removed,<br />

and the diocese would finally<br />

give the people of Christchurch<br />

some significant news.<br />

But no. Just another tidbit –<br />

the announcement of a working<br />

party.<br />

This five-and-a-half-years<br />

after the earthquake, and a year<br />

after the Government last year<br />

appointed mediator Miriam<br />

Dean, QC, in an attempt to<br />

break the deadlock over the<br />

building.<br />

<strong>The</strong> diocese is sadly wrong if<br />

it thinks the people of Christchurch<br />

will keep putting up with<br />

this.<br />

We said:<br />

What do you think<br />

Christchurch, are we an Old<br />

English City, a Garden City<br />

or something else?<br />

Following the destruction<br />

of so many heritage buildings,<br />

that were said to give<br />

Christchurch its ‘Englishness’,<br />

there is ongoing talk<br />

around our city’s identity.<br />

You said:<br />

Leonard Cullarn – I have<br />

always known Christchurch as<br />

an Old English City of New Zealand<br />

and I always love my city!<br />

Let’s keep our English heritage<br />

and our buildings. Build more<br />

buildings using English heritage<br />

of the city. If we lose heritage of<br />

the city Christchurch wouldn’t<br />

be Christchurch anymore.<br />

So let’s give Christchurch its<br />

Englishness back today! Like<br />

our New Zealand flag we don’t<br />

want to lose our heritage. Let’s<br />

bring our old English city of<br />

Christchurch back and keep our<br />

history alive.<br />

Jill Reesby – I have always<br />

known Christchurch as the ‘Garden<br />

City’ and as we grow and<br />

move forward I believe we will<br />

be a better ‘sustainable Garden<br />

City’ plenty of red zone to do<br />

this.<br />

FOR THE purposes of my<br />

column this week I’m wearing<br />

a different hat than my role<br />

supporting Christchurch<br />

regeneration.<br />

On Monday, I took great pleasure<br />

in announcing the Government<br />

has approved the purchase<br />

of a new naval tanker for the<br />

New Zealand Defence Force,<br />

which will be ice-strengthened<br />

Christine Schuler – Christchurch<br />

can’t possibly be an<br />

‘English’ city. It’s not in England.<br />

Most of the heritage buildings<br />

are gone and this is our chance<br />

to develop a modern, userfriendly,<br />

more sustainable city<br />

that isn’t held hostage to the<br />

wishes of those who refuse to<br />

accept change.<br />

Jake Huia Ranginui – Old<br />

English city? Was well populated<br />

by Maori before any English<br />

were here to make it a English<br />

city.<br />

Frances Harrison – It was<br />

known principally as the Garden<br />

City but the Englishness of it really<br />

added a special flavour that<br />

had been developed over 170<br />

years. <strong>The</strong> Avon is a tiny part of<br />

that. <strong>The</strong> city could have lost its<br />

rich past and what might have<br />

humanitarian and disaster relief<br />

operations.<br />

<strong>The</strong> vessel will be built by<br />

South Korean firm Hyundai<br />

Heavy Industries and is expected<br />

to be delivered in 2020.<br />

It replaces the 30-year-old<br />

Gerry Brownlee<br />

been a rich future. I do hope<br />

it doesn’t turn into a try-hard/<br />

also-ran city that could be found<br />

anywhere. Even the people have<br />

changed and, from what I hear,<br />

not for the best.<br />

Ryan Jared – How about<br />

something modern to attract<br />

not only visitors but people who<br />

live in Christchurch back into<br />

the city. This “oh no we ain’t<br />

building tall buildings because<br />

they might fall down is rubbish”<br />

Modern with a hint of the old<br />

heritage to Christchurch. No<br />

point rebuilding if you’re going<br />

to design a city based on 2002.<br />

Selwyn Eagle – We are the<br />

best city in the world and just by<br />

being us,we show it. Like us or<br />

not come here and be amazed,or<br />

not that is your choice.<br />

Toni Muschamp Fulford – I<br />

hope they rebuild the beautiful<br />

Cathedral, that is what made the<br />

city of Christchurch.<br />

Alex Fuller – Used to be, now<br />

a vibrant and dynamic changing<br />

environment full of resilient<br />

people.<br />

Peter Cooper – Broken city<br />

that still waiting to be repaired.<br />

Wendy King – Will always be<br />

Matt Cuthill – <strong>The</strong> city of<br />

bad street surfaces and broken<br />

footpaths.<br />

Kirsten Ericson – A Phoenix.<br />

the old English city. Now has the<br />

capacity to be “ <strong>The</strong> world’s most<br />

On the Christ Church<br />

Cathedral’s future.<br />

Karene Smith – It is so sad<br />

that this situation of making<br />

decisions with the context of<br />

repairs or demolition and rebuild<br />

have been so long. Wanted<br />

money on some projects within<br />

the city should have been invested<br />

earlier on security of the<br />

Cathedral for materials salvaged.<br />

Make a decision now, we have<br />

waited far too long.<br />

Frances S Harrison – Of<br />

course it can be rebuilt and it<br />

doesn’t have to cost lives. Ask<br />

those in Europe who have rebuilt<br />

their historic monuments after<br />

various wars. <strong>The</strong>y didn’t say:<br />

‘Oh well too bad.’ No, these<br />

structures meant something<br />

and in NZ with so few historic<br />

monuments it’s especially important.<br />

<strong>The</strong> English character<br />

of Christchurch should be<br />

preserved as much as possible.<br />

the Antarctic<br />

It’s not backward thinking, in<br />

fact it’s forward thinking. As<br />

a resident of France I see the<br />

horrendous loss of heritage as a<br />

result of the Revolution and various<br />

wars. People will always die<br />

but those that come after should<br />

have a sense of history, identity.<br />

I’m a Cantab. Christchurch was<br />

special and unique. Surely there’s<br />

room for quality and history?<br />

Jo Turnell – Too late now to<br />

rebuild, leave part of the ruin as<br />

a memorial and build a new one.<br />

<strong>The</strong> new tanker will undertake<br />

a similar role.<br />

<strong>The</strong> NZDF can’t operate<br />

without fuel, water, ammunition<br />

and other bulk goods, and the<br />

most effective way to deliver<br />

fuel to ships, aircraft and vehicles<br />

deployed overseas is by<br />

tanker.<br />

This vessel will be significantly<br />

larger, will be able to refuel two<br />

ships at a time while under way,<br />

carry and refuel NZDF helicopters,<br />

produce and store water,<br />

and store and transport bulk<br />

goods.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Government has also opted<br />

to include ice-strengthening<br />

and winterisation features, representing<br />

a very useful enhanced<br />

capability when compared to the<br />

current tanker.<br />

This will allow it to deliver<br />

fuel and other goods to support<br />

Scott Base and McMurdo<br />

Station during summer months<br />

once an icebreaker has cleared a<br />

path.<br />

It is important that New Zealand<br />

has a significant asset capable<br />

of supporting our presence in<br />

Antarctica and our interests in<br />

the Southern Ocean more generally.<br />

Recycle as much as possible from<br />

the original and auction off the<br />

rest as a fundraiser.<br />

Gwyneth Carson-Jones – Stop<br />

indulging the so-called heritage<br />

protectors. Demolish immediately,<br />

as this city will never be<br />

able to move on until the symbol<br />

of our city is able to.<br />

Di Alpers – It should be left<br />

as a ruin . . . it’ll be a sombre reminder<br />

of the impact of quakes.<br />

Funding squeeze<br />

will affect education<br />

WITH SCHOOL holidays<br />

finishing, it’s a good time to<br />

reflect on the state of our public<br />

education system.<br />

For us here in Canterbury, our<br />

local schools have taken on an<br />

extra level of importance in the<br />

last few years, acting as havens of<br />

security and continuity for kids<br />

after the earthquakes.<br />

Making sure every kid has the<br />

tools they need to live up to their<br />

potential has always been the<br />

highest goal of our public education<br />

system. It’s about making<br />

sure that how much your parents<br />

earn never becomes a barrier<br />

to a child making the most of<br />

themselves.<br />

That’s the ideal, but as any<br />

parent knows, these days the reality<br />

of our so called free public<br />

education system can be quite<br />

different. Just like in health, the<br />

Government has been putting<br />

the squeeze on funding in education,<br />

and its parents who are<br />

picking up the tab.<br />

Just a few months ago, the<br />

Government cut per pupil<br />

funding in our public education<br />

system by $150 each. In this<br />

year’s budget, they announced<br />

they will be freezing operational<br />

spending in schools entirely.<br />

Now they are proposing a return<br />

to the ‘bulk funding’ approach<br />

of the 1990s, which saw schools<br />

having to decide between paying<br />

good teachers or spending<br />

money upgrading classrooms.<br />

<strong>The</strong> ones who miss out most<br />

from these cuts are the kids, as<br />

schools struggle to keep up. We<br />

can see this clearly in the international<br />

rankings of achievement.<br />

According to the OECD,<br />

in 2006, we were ranked fifth<br />

in the world for reading, today<br />

we’ve fallen to 13 th . We were seventh<br />

in science but today we are<br />

18 th . And in maths? We’ve fallen<br />

from 11 th to 23 rd .<br />

Meanwhile, tighter budgets<br />

means schools are having to pass<br />

more of the costs along to parents.<br />

Ask any parent in Christchurch<br />

and they will tell you about<br />

the rising costs of “voluntary<br />

donations” they are being asked<br />

to meet each year.<br />

<strong>The</strong> end result of the current<br />

approach to education is parents<br />

watching their kids schools<br />

tumble down the international<br />

rankings and paying more out<br />

of their own pocket for the<br />

privilege.<br />

We’ve got to do better. We<br />

know that education changes<br />

lives, it’s the best way to give<br />

our kids a great future. It’s time<br />

to start investing properly in<br />

education, rather than looking<br />

for more places to cut.<br />

Viewpoint<br />

<strong>The</strong> Anglican Diocese won’t be talking publicly about the Christ Church<br />

Cathedral until the recently-appointed Cathedral Working Group reports<br />

back on its findings in early December. <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong> asked how people felt<br />

about the delay and what they want to see in the future<br />

Jan Halliday,<br />

foster parent, of<br />

Sockburn: I feel that<br />

they need to get to<br />

it and do it. You<br />

look at articles and<br />

see it’s deteriorating<br />

so I think it’s about<br />

time they did something.<br />

You think<br />

they’d be more open<br />

about discussing it<br />

with residents but<br />

it seems to be one<br />

side against the<br />

other.<br />

Kilian Voigt,<br />

student, of<br />

Burnside: I have no<br />

opinion. I don’t pay<br />

enough attention<br />

but they should just<br />

get on with it there’s<br />

nothing stopping<br />

them. Shouldn’t<br />

they be having<br />

public forums on<br />

the outcome of the<br />

Cathedral? <strong>The</strong>y<br />

should do that<br />

because then they<br />

can get an idea of<br />

what the people<br />

want rather than<br />

just what they want.<br />

Tom Elder, drainlayer,<br />

of Ilam: I<br />

don’t have much<br />

of a view as I don’t<br />

really tune into that<br />

sort of thing but<br />

I guess it’s a little<br />

unreasonable. It’s<br />

such a big part of<br />

Christchurch they<br />

should definitely be<br />

making a decision.<br />

Personally. I’d like<br />

to see it rebuilt.<br />

Helen Goatley,<br />

retired, of<br />

Avonhead: <strong>The</strong>y<br />

have taken a long<br />

time already and<br />

another five months<br />

seems unreasonable<br />

– surely they must<br />

know what they<br />

want and what they<br />

have the finances to<br />

do. It was an iconic<br />

centre but it would<br />

take a lot of money<br />

to rebuild so maybe<br />

they should start<br />

again by building<br />

something new.<br />

Aaron D’Auvergne,<br />

musician, of New<br />

Brighton: People<br />

are interested in a<br />

decision . . . it’d be<br />

nice to know what’s<br />

on the agenda.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y should be<br />

more open about<br />

it because I think<br />

Christians across<br />

the board are quite<br />

interested as well as<br />

wider Christchurch.<br />

You can’t ignore a<br />

destroyed Cathedral<br />

– if they could<br />

rebuild it that<br />

would be great.<br />

Mary Sinclair-<br />

Porter, manager, of<br />

Cardiff: It’s my first<br />

day here so it’s all<br />

new information to<br />

me. At the moment<br />

it’s being ruined by<br />

those awful pigeons<br />

so something needs<br />

to happen fairly<br />

quickly. It’s a beautiful<br />

building but<br />

they should build a<br />

multi-cultural centre<br />

and just reuse<br />

what’s there. I know<br />

it’s a heritage building<br />

here but where<br />

I come from they’re<br />

thousands of years<br />

old instead of 150.<br />

Kathryn McKee,<br />

caregiver, of<br />

Waikanae: I’m still<br />

reeling seeing all<br />

the damage. I guess<br />

to some people it<br />

means a lot but<br />

human life means<br />

more and obviously<br />

what they’re doing<br />

is putting everything<br />

back together<br />

so that no more<br />

lives are lost like<br />

last time. I know it<br />

means a lot to the<br />

religious people but<br />

there’s other priorities<br />

at the moment,<br />

like making the city<br />

safe.<br />

Janelle Mackie,<br />

trainer, of<br />

Spreydon: It’s been<br />

too long and I think<br />

everyone is well and<br />

truly sick of the lack<br />

of announcements<br />

– I just want them<br />

to make a decision<br />

one way or another.<br />

It’s got to the stage<br />

where it’s an embarrassment.<br />

A lot of<br />

people came here<br />

initially to see the<br />

damage but now it’s<br />

old and now they<br />

need to figure out<br />

what they’re going<br />

to do.<br />

‘pet-friendly’ hotel. He spoke to Gabrielle Stuart about the<br />

challenges of hosting animal guests, the perks of working in some<br />

of the world’s top hotels and resorts, and how to bring tourists back<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong> requires delivery personnel<br />

OPPORTUNITY: General manager Dilan De Silva<br />

opened Fino Hotel last week. PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN<br />

So where did the petfriendly<br />

hotel idea come<br />

from?<br />

We wanted to do something<br />

different in Christchurch,<br />

so we wanted it to<br />

be a bit quirkier, and more<br />

than just another hotel. I<br />

have a pet myself, so one<br />

of things which was stopping<br />

me from just going<br />

on quick holiday or taking<br />

many holidays was all the<br />

planning you need to do.<br />

Sometimes the neighbour<br />

could look after him, but<br />

sometimes it was too hard<br />

or didn’t work out, so I<br />

thought if you can travel<br />

with a pet when you stay in<br />

a luxury hotel that’s going<br />

to be great. We also provide<br />

them with welcome<br />

packs, so for the dogs we’ve<br />

got a walking map, snacks,<br />

dog bags and tissues, a list<br />

of places you can find dog<br />

food or a vet, and things<br />

like that.<br />

I’ve heard of a petfriendly<br />

hotel in New York<br />

which has hosted a snake<br />

and a penguin. How far<br />

would you take it?<br />

At the moment it’s dogs<br />

and cats, but I suppose you<br />

could bring a fish tank, and<br />

we are open to options. I<br />

think the question is are<br />

they domestic pets and are<br />

they trained, or else someone<br />

will bring a cheetah.<br />

So we’ll ask the questions<br />

and make the judgement<br />

then. But probably not a<br />

penguin, I’m guessing it<br />

will be too hot here for one,<br />

although after the weather<br />

last week perhaps it is possible!<br />

And it’s been a pretty<br />

tough time for the tourism<br />

industry in Christchurch.<br />

What was it that<br />

made you say now’s the<br />

time to open a hotel here?<br />

<strong>The</strong>re were a couple of<br />

years when it was a big<br />

challenge. We took over<br />

the building two and a half<br />

years ago and we’ve done<br />

a $15 million renovation<br />

and seismic upgrade. But I<br />

think we’re opening at the<br />

right time, when there is a<br />

shortage of accommodation<br />

and with the tourism<br />

market picking up to<br />

greater levels. <strong>The</strong> problem<br />

in Christchurch is we have<br />

plenty of accommodation<br />

in the winter months and<br />

not enough in the peak<br />

summer months, so we<br />

need a centre of attraction<br />

to the city. I think the convention<br />

centre is the biggest<br />

push we can have and<br />

we need to get it sorted,<br />

and the second will be the<br />

Heat Pump Specials<br />

stadium where we can have<br />

events. I think there are<br />

some great activities and<br />

great attractions around<br />

Christchurch, so we’ve got<br />

a great product to offer, but<br />

those two key elements are<br />

missing, and I think it’s<br />

taken too long.<br />

You must have moved to<br />

Christchurch right before<br />

the earthquakes – did you<br />

ever think about leaving<br />

after they hit?<br />

No, I never wanted to<br />

move. I came here and<br />

I loved the place, and I<br />

got stuck here. I thought,<br />

look, if I can get through<br />

this earthquake I can get<br />

through the rest of it. I<br />

think it’s a matter of having<br />

the courage to get stuck<br />

into it, and then when<br />

things come back to life<br />

you are an integral part<br />

of it.<br />

catered for at Fino<br />

Tell me a bit about<br />

your background? You’ve<br />

worked all over the world,<br />

right?<br />

I am a Sri Lankan Portuguese<br />

descendent, born in<br />

Sri Lanka, but I left when<br />

I was about 20 years and<br />

did a bit of a world tour.<br />

I did my post graduate in<br />

Hawaii and in Holland,<br />

and my first hotel assignment<br />

was in Burma, where<br />

I managed a luxury hotel.<br />

From Burma I moved to<br />

Thailand, where I worked<br />

for three years, and then<br />

to the Middle East where<br />

I managed two hotels in<br />

Qatar. I spent about four<br />

years there and then went<br />

to Vietnam for two years,<br />

and then moved to New<br />

Zealand about seven years<br />

ago, and got stuck.<br />

Was it a conscious<br />

choice to move so much,<br />

or was it just where the<br />

work was?<br />

Yes, I wanted to move<br />

around and explore<br />

and work in different<br />

continents and get an<br />

understanding of different<br />

cultures, I enjoyed that until<br />

I was about 35, but then<br />

we had a son and that was<br />

when we decided to move<br />

to New Zealand and settle<br />

Dilan De Silva<br />

down.<br />

And of all the places in<br />

the world, why did you<br />

choose Christchurch?<br />

Well, it was the job offer<br />

I got at Terrace Downs as<br />

general manager, but as<br />

I followed that through I<br />

thought this was the right<br />

city I wanted to live in,<br />

with the right opportunities<br />

here. And then the<br />

earthquakes struck.<br />

Working in these amazing<br />

five-star hotels and<br />

resorts, do you ever get<br />

to stay in them yourself?<br />

What’s been the best perk?<br />

I do. I usually stay and<br />

check it out, and try all the<br />

different kinds of rooms<br />

and as much as possible in<br />

the restaurant, so you can<br />

constantly keep yourself in<br />

LUXURY:<br />

<strong>The</strong> Fino<br />

Hotel in<br />

Kilmore St.<br />

the loop and keep innovating.<br />

But it is all luxury food<br />

and luxury rooms, so I do<br />

enjoy it.<br />

Having worked in so<br />

many cities, what are<br />

your thoughts on what<br />

Christchurch could become?<br />

Oh, it’s going to be one<br />

of the most vibrant cities<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong><br />

Taste<br />

Baking perfection is no peice of cake<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong> continues its series talking with people cooking for you.<br />

Cakes by Anna owner Anna Worthington<br />

• By Gabrielle Stuart<br />

IT WAS cake perfection:<br />

Three layers baked, iced and<br />

decorated, ready for a wedding<br />

that afternoon – until Anna<br />

Worthington dropped it.<br />

As a new business-owner,<br />

looking down at the mess that<br />

was the once perfect cake she had<br />

spent hours crafting, she said it<br />

was one of her lowest points.<br />

But also it taught her perspective,<br />

she said.<br />

She was able to pull herself<br />

together and create a new cake<br />

in just three hours, and the bride<br />

and groom never learned about<br />

the disaster, she said.<br />

“I used to lose sleep over making<br />

wedding cakes. But now<br />

I think even in the worst case<br />

scenario, if I was to walk into the<br />

reception and drop the cake in<br />

front of them, it would have to<br />

be pretty bad to completely ruin<br />

their wedding.”<br />

It was the same attitude that<br />

gave her the courage to quit her<br />

job to start her own cake-making<br />

business, Cakes by Anna.<br />

She grew up in Christchurch,<br />

but left the city as a teenager to<br />

do a fine arts degree in Auckland.<br />

She went overseas after she<br />

graduated, and travelled around<br />

Europe for more than a year.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re, she put her hand up for<br />

whatever work she could find,<br />

and discovered she really enjoyed<br />

cooking and baking.<br />

She was also inspired by the<br />

food and culture around community<br />

markets there, she said.<br />

She returned to Christchurch<br />

in 2012, not planning to stay for<br />

long, but said she was inspired by<br />

what was happening in the city.<br />

“Growing up I didn’t have a big<br />

attachment to Christchurch. It<br />

felt it wasn’t exciting enough for<br />

me. But coming back I was meeting<br />

really interesting people, and<br />

it felt like a fresh start.”<br />

She began working in a cafe,<br />

but on the side began developing<br />

her own business idea, selling<br />

cakes at the Christchurch Farmers<br />

Market in Riccarton.<br />

She said a lot of cakes being<br />

sold at the time were very sweet<br />

and covered in fondant, and she<br />

wanted to do something different.<br />

Her goal was to use as many<br />

natural and local ingredients as<br />

she could, and always experiment<br />

– pulling together flavour<br />

combinations like gin, lime and<br />

coconut or her most popular<br />

pear, date and salted caramel<br />

cakes.<br />

She began baking cakes after<br />

work in her mother’s kitchen,<br />

and selling them each weekend,<br />

but she said the business grew<br />

fast.<br />

“I was working crazy hours,<br />

from 6am to 2pm at the cafe<br />

in the kitchen, and once I was<br />

finished there I would go and do<br />

baking until late. After about six<br />

months doing both jobs I totally<br />

burnt out.”<br />

At that point she quit her job to<br />

start baking full-time.<br />

Although it was a big step, she<br />

decided she had nothing to lose.<br />

“After I quit the job I realised<br />

I had so much more time to put<br />

effort into it and really research<br />

recipes, and instead of being<br />

tired all the time I was really<br />

enjoying it.”<br />

She now has one employee,<br />

and works form a commercial<br />

kitchen in Linwood.<br />

Although she has enough work<br />

from orders from local cafes and<br />

events to keep the business going,<br />

she still plans to stick to her<br />

roots and keep her market stall<br />

running each week.<br />

HOMEGROWN: Cakes By Anna started as a small stall at the<br />

Riccarton House market, but Anna Worthington now works from<br />

a commercial kitchen and has a growing customer base.<br />

Gardening Advice with<br />

Congratulations! Today’s winning question came from Tracey Jack<br />

QUESTION: What time of year do I prune my<br />

grapevine (it is about 3 years old). How far back do<br />

I prune it?<br />

ANSWER: Grapes should be pruned as soon as<br />

all the leaves have fallen off the vine (around now).<br />

Depending on how you are training your grapevine,<br />

main leaders should be established and spur<br />

growth off the leaders should be pruned back to<br />

two nodes (a node is to where growth will occur<br />

from in spring).<br />

While this appears to be very hard pruning, do not<br />

be alarmed as grapevines put on a tremendous<br />

amount of growth every year and fruit on the new<br />

season’s growth.<br />

It may be necessary through the growing season<br />

to shorten back some of the vegetative growth to<br />

allow for the better formation of fruit.<br />

Be attentive to your grapevine in early spring as the new<br />

shoots can be quite frost tender and therefore damaged<br />

if there is a late frost in your area. To lessen the threat,<br />

cover the vines with a frost cloth in late August through to<br />

September.<br />

Beating the odds to win model contest<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

A NEAR miss from being<br />

paralysed has encouraged a<br />

Papanui High School student to<br />

make most of her opportunities<br />

and try her hand in the<br />

modelling scene.<br />

Michaelee-Jayne McDonald,<br />

16, won the Portfolio Model<br />

Search <strong>2016</strong> out of 80 entries.<br />

Each contestant sent in a<br />

photo of themselves from<br />

Facebook or Instagram. <strong>The</strong><br />

winner was selected by a panel of<br />

judges from the Portfolio Model<br />

Agency.<br />

Michaelee-Jayne, who had<br />

always been interested in modelling,<br />

said she tried out for the<br />

competition because she wanted<br />

to make the most of her opportunities.<br />

<strong>The</strong> keen surfer’s perspective<br />

on life completely changed last<br />

year after an accident nearly left<br />

her paralysed.<br />

“I was at Sumner and I was<br />

surfing up to the beach to get a<br />

drink and I forgot I was about<br />

30cm deep and I dived off my<br />

board head first,” she said.<br />

<strong>The</strong> accident caused her to<br />

break her jaw, nose and have<br />

about 80 internal stitches.<br />

She said the doctors had told<br />

her she was lucky not to be paralysed.<br />

<strong>The</strong> accident had opened<br />

up her mind to get the most out<br />

of life.<br />

But in spite of the scare,<br />

Michaelee-Jayne still enjoys<br />

surfing when she can and hopes<br />

to edge her way into surf and<br />

general sports modelling.<br />

Not only does Michaelee-Jayne<br />

surf, she plays competitive touch,<br />

rugby and netball for her school.<br />

On top of her sports development<br />

she is taking all science<br />

options at school in the hopes<br />

of becoming an anaesthetist or<br />

mechanical civil engineer.<br />

<strong>The</strong> modelling competition<br />

was for aspiring models aged<br />

between 14-<strong>21</strong> to be scouted by<br />

the company.<br />

Michaelee-Jayne along with<br />

several other finalists has been<br />

awarded a contract with the<br />

city’s premier modelling agency.<br />

Agency director Mel Radford<br />

Brown said the standard was<br />

high and the agency was<br />

glad to have met the nine<br />

finalists for the competition on<br />

Monday.<br />

Mrs Radford Brown described<br />

Michaelee-Jayne as a stunning<br />

natural beauty.<br />

“She just stuck out a mile away<br />

and I think the public will really<br />

love her too,” she said.<br />

While Michaelee-Jayne is new<br />

to the modelling scene, she said<br />

she is a confident person, enjoys<br />

having her photo taken and is<br />

keen to learn more.<br />

She said to anyone else wanting<br />

to try modelling to give it a<br />

go.<br />

“Don’t hold yourself back<br />

as cliche as it sounds . . . don’t<br />

worry about what other people<br />

thinks,” she said.<br />

HEALING: After a surfing accident nearly leaving her paralysed, Michaelee-Jayne McDonald is fully recovered and has been scouted by the Portfolio Model<br />

Agency based in the city.<br />

Play shows link between<br />

unemployment, poverty<br />

and mental health<br />

Road by Jim Cartwright<br />

Directed by Mike Friend<br />

Reviewed by Georgia<br />

O’Connor-Harding<br />

A SPECTRUM of remarkable<br />

performers have made themselves<br />

at home in the newly opened Lyttelton<br />

Arts Factory.<br />

Produced by the Loons <strong>The</strong>atre<br />

Trust, one of writer Jim Cartwright’s<br />

most poignant tales has<br />

been brought to life conveying the<br />

tragic affects of unemployment.<br />

And, if this show is anything to<br />

go by, I can’t wait to see what the<br />

trust does next.<br />

Road is a dark, mesmerising,<br />

sometimes funny, play about a collection<br />

of characters on No Hope<br />

St.<br />

It is set in Lancashire during the<br />

Margaret Thatcher years, when<br />

unemployment was high in the<br />

north of England.<br />

Although it is set in the 1980s,<br />

the themes of despair, violence<br />

and alcoholism could be found<br />

anywhere today.<br />

For the residents of No Hope St,<br />

alcohol is the answer and the poor<br />

continue to get poorer.<br />

From the moment you walk into<br />

the theatre, a large proportion<br />

of the cast were already on stage<br />

in a collection of different living<br />

spaces.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong><br />

<strong>The</strong> dimly-lit set, along with the<br />

accents mastered by the capable<br />

cast, reminds me of Coronation<br />

Street.<br />

<strong>The</strong> play’s about a tour along a<br />

road led by the merry Scullery,<br />

played by Tom Trevella, who introduces<br />

the audience to the various<br />

characters.<br />

In one of the most haunting<br />

scenes, Scullery shows the audience<br />

a young couple, played by<br />

Lucy Rossie and Hamish Tong,<br />

who starve themselves resulting<br />

in the woman dieing. This scene<br />

was a heart-breaking reminder of<br />

young people who feel they have<br />

no future before their life has<br />

begun.<br />

This distressing scene is also an<br />

insight into the growing problem<br />

of mental health issues for young<br />

people in New Zealand.<br />

It is difficult to pick the standout<br />

performers, but I think Janice<br />

Gray, one of Christchurch’s performing<br />

icons, does a marvellous<br />

job of playing Molly who clearly<br />

has Alzheimer’s disease. Gray gives<br />

an excellent portrayal of the oldest<br />

inhabitant of the street, bringing<br />

humour to her role as she re-enacts<br />

her glory days while getting ready<br />

for a night out.<br />

<strong>The</strong> play sparks a discussion<br />

about the relationship between<br />

mental health and unemployment.

<strong>The</strong>atre/Arts<br />

Itty Bitty Beats’ award nominated feats<br />

• Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

A MUSICAL duo dedicated to<br />

helping parents and children<br />

bring more music into their<br />

lives has been nominated for the<br />

second time in the children’s<br />

section of the Vodafone New<br />

Zealand Music Awards.<br />

Christchurch band Itty Bitty<br />

Beats was formed by musicians<br />

and busy mums, Lucy Hiku and<br />

Jenny Payne. <strong>The</strong>y have been<br />

nominated for the Best Children’s<br />

Music Album and APRA<br />

Best Children’s Music Song.<br />

<strong>The</strong> duo will be up against<br />

Anika Moa, Anna van Riel and<br />

Peter Weatherall.<br />

Payne and Hiku first met at<br />

the Ara Institute of Canterbury<br />

Jazz School in 2001.<br />

After marrying musical husbands<br />

and having children, the<br />

duo formed Itty Bitty Beats and<br />

debuted with their album Bath<br />

Time last year.<br />

“We are both busy musicians.<br />

We both use music in our lives<br />

[and] we thought gosh wouldn’t<br />

it be fun to make something of<br />

this and help other people,” Mrs<br />

Payne said.<br />

She described Itty Bitty Beats<br />

as practical music, filled with<br />

fun characters and useful songs<br />

about washing hair and filling a<br />

bath with water.<br />

<strong>The</strong>ir latest album Lay Your<br />

Head Down, along with the song<br />

Po Marie, have been nominated<br />

at this year’s awards.<br />

Lay Your Head Down made<br />

the top of the iTunes children’s<br />

album chart in October.<br />

<strong>The</strong> album is a collection of<br />

lullabies with gentle soothing<br />

music and native bird song.<br />

And, after only a year of<br />

starting up the band, their<br />

music is already getting played<br />

overseas.<br />

<strong>The</strong>ir single <strong>The</strong> Last Lullaby,<br />

released last year, was created for<br />

Baby Loss Awareness Week.<br />

<strong>The</strong> song was made to help<br />

people grieving the loss of a<br />

child, and has travelled as far the<br />

United Kingdom.<br />

“My husband and I lost our<br />

son who was three-days-old back<br />

in 2009,” Mrs Payne said.<br />

“So it wasn’t a song about him,<br />

but it was inspired by the grief<br />

that came with that.”<br />

Itty Bitty Beats is as much<br />

about helping people as it is<br />

about celebrating life.<br />

BRIGHT<br />

MUSICIANS:<br />

Lucy Hiku and<br />

Jenny Payne’s<br />

band Itty Bitty<br />

Beats has been<br />

nominated for<br />

two children’s<br />

music awards. ​<br />

“This is a happy thing. We are<br />

passionate about music, sharing<br />

it with people and helping families,”<br />

she said.<br />

Already, the duo is working<br />

on a “driving album” designed<br />

to keep children entertained in<br />

the car.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y will be travelling up to<br />

Auckland to celebrate the awards<br />

on August 9.<br />

Travel<br />

Cruise on the smartest ship at sea<br />

• By Mike Yardley<br />

BY ANY measure, it’s a colossus<br />

and it’s coming to a port near<br />

you. After all, this is a ship that<br />

cracks 19,900 eggs a day in its<br />

main kitchen.<br />

Fresh from the inaugural sailing<br />

from its European shipyards<br />

via the Middle East to Asia, I’ve<br />

just spent three night’s aboard<br />

Ovation of a Seas on a taster<br />

cruise out of Singapore.<br />

New car smell is a knock-out<br />

fragrance, but new mega-ship<br />

smell kept my nostrils partying<br />

for 72 hours. So just how big is<br />

this billion dollar behemoth?<br />

It may not be the most salubrious<br />

frame of reference, but<br />

she weighs in at four times the<br />

tonnage of Titanic. She’s three<br />

and half rugby fields long. One<br />

and a half laps around the running<br />

track clocks up a kilometre.<br />

Catering to 4900 passengers and<br />

boasting 1300 crew, she towers<br />

15 stories.<br />

Currently ranked as the<br />

fourth-equal largest cruise ship<br />

in the world (Royal Caribbean<br />

clean sweeps the top five), this<br />

latest entrant to the company’s<br />

Quantum Class of vessels is also<br />

considered the smartest ship at<br />

sea.<br />

Aside from the daily Cruise<br />

Compass programme of activities,<br />

there’s a conspicuous<br />

absence of paper – a very good<br />

thing given passenger loading.<br />

Liberally sprinkled across<br />

the ship, Royal IQ stations and<br />

mounted iPads, enable you to<br />

VIRTUAL SKYDIVING: Soar like an eagle and get full body<br />

exfoliation.<br />

book every activity imaginable,<br />

from shore excursions, to spa<br />

treatments. You can also download<br />

the Royal IQ app, which<br />

doesn’t require paid for WiFi to<br />

operate, to make bookings and<br />

build your custom calendar, on<br />

your own device.<br />

Speaking of WiFi, Royal<br />

Caribbean reputedly offers<br />

the speediest service at sea. I<br />

despise WiFi charges, and Royal<br />

Caribbean’s web packages start<br />

at a pesky US$13 a day – but at<br />

least the service is robust and<br />

Roadrunner-fast.<br />

<strong>The</strong> design elements and contemporary<br />

art works throughout<br />

the vessel ooze class, comparable<br />

to the fresh, crisp and elegant<br />

interiors of a new build, five-star<br />

hotel. Royal Caribbean whips<br />

up much buzz over its inventive<br />

prowess to its active leisure<br />

and entertainment offerings like<br />

ROBOTIC: Quench your thirst in the Bionic Bar. Order up a<br />

cocktail on the iPad and watch the robotic mixologists make it,<br />

North <strong>Star</strong>, the glass capsule that<br />

soars 90m above and to the side<br />

of the ship, and Flowrider, the<br />

virtual surfing innovation.<br />

But the newest toy is Ripcord<br />

by iFLY – the world’s first freefalling<br />

skydive simulator at sea.<br />

Previously disgracing myself<br />

on Flowrider, I was determined<br />

to make a better fist of virtual<br />

skydiving. After being suited up<br />

and given a basic skills briefing,<br />

you’re encased within a billowing<br />

glass tube, with a gargantuan<br />

vertical fan (covered by a<br />

grill) blasting air up at you at<br />

160km/h.<br />

Thrust airborne, I felt like a<br />

levitating monk. And if you’ve<br />

studiously followed the briefing,<br />

astutely assuming the optimum<br />

body positions, you’ll soar like<br />

an eagle. But you certainly feel<br />

battered by the wind force.<br />

After this unexpected full<br />

body exfoliation, I saw no need<br />

to book a spa treatment or massage.<br />

iFLY is an energising bodybashing<br />

thriller. <strong>The</strong> entertaining<br />

swirl of sensory thrills continue<br />

at Seaplex, which is like a minitheme<br />

park.<br />

Royal Caribbean’s bells and<br />

whistles are all geared at courting<br />

the family market, although<br />

there were plenty of seniors<br />

aboard having a whale of time.<br />

At night, I sampled Two70, the<br />

futuristic entertainment venue<br />

which has revolutionised the<br />

typical big-show affair at sea.<br />

BEHEMOTH: Ovation of a Seas caters up to 4900 passengers<br />

with 1300 crew.<br />

<strong>The</strong> multi-storey glass-panelled<br />

back end of the ship transforms<br />

into a sweeping screen for<br />

projections, while six flat-screen<br />

rhythmic robots, called roboscreens,<br />

rev up the illumination<br />

magic even more.<br />

Studded with high-tech wizardry,<br />

the multi-dimensional live<br />

shows on Ovation of the Seas<br />

would have to be the best I’ve<br />

ever seen, on a cruise. Robotic<br />

technology has also invented<br />

mixology, with Royal Caribbean’s<br />

Bionic Bar. Order up a<br />

cocktail on the bar’s iPad and<br />

watch the robotic mixologists<br />

make it and shake it.<br />

When it comes to libations, I<br />

far prefer chatting to bar staff but<br />

for pure gimmickry, the Bionic<br />

Bar is a good for a giggle.<br />

Prior to boarding, I had apocalyptic<br />

dreams about how hideous<br />

feeding 5000 people, at the same<br />

time, might look. <strong>The</strong> traditional<br />

notion of the main dining room<br />

has been unceremoniously axed<br />

on Ovation, replaced with five<br />

complimentary and distinct<br />

main restaurants.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y form part of the ship’s<br />

full culinary arsenal, serving up<br />

an unrivalled 18 separate dining<br />

venues. I sampled some the<br />

ship’s signature restaurants, like<br />

Izumi, Wonderland and Jamie’s<br />

Italian, which were truly exceptional.<br />

If you’re up for a dose of extravagant<br />

molecular gastronomy<br />

in fantasy surrounds, Wonderland<br />

wows with its zany, foodscience-based<br />

cuisine.<br />

FAST FACTS<br />

• Royal Caribbean’s<br />

Ovation of the Seas is an<br />

astoundingly impressive<br />

ship. She will be the<br />

newest and largest ever<br />

ship to visit New Zealand<br />

shores, as part of her<br />

Down Under summer<br />

season. For sailings and<br />

College<br />

Kick-off Saturday at 2.45pm<br />

LAST WEEK I wrote about<br />

our family dividing and<br />

conquering for the school<br />

holidays, with my hubby<br />

and two eldest girls heading<br />

north for a week to visit<br />

relatives, while I remained<br />

at home with our two-anda-half-year-old<br />

twins.<br />

To be honest, it’s been a<br />

funny old week without the<br />

full family complement.<br />

Although still busy with the<br />

relentless bustle that comes<br />

with having dependents, I’d<br />

forgotten what it was like<br />

looking after only two preschoolers.<br />

For starters: we have<br />

had very slow mornings.<br />

We’ve had enjoyed leisurely<br />

breakfasts and stayed in<br />

our PJs until 10am most<br />

days (whereas the Big Girls<br />

would have already had<br />

three outfit changes and<br />

burst out the door by then).<br />

Books, puzzles, painting,<br />

Playdough and colouringin<br />

have dominated the<br />

mornings, and most<br />

afternoons have been spent<br />

wandering different parks<br />

and playgrounds. <strong>The</strong> days<br />

have felt longer, less chaotic,<br />

and generally pretty chilled.<br />

And that’s a lot different from<br />

how we usually operate.<br />

<strong>The</strong> second difference in<br />

the home dynamic has been<br />

the simple lack of chatter.<br />

Although the twins are full<br />

of toddler-talk, they have<br />

only just come to converse<br />

amongst themselves in a<br />

peculiar sort of twin-speak<br />

that I just can only sometimes<br />

decipher.<br />

Although I talk to/with<br />

them all the time, it’s fair<br />

to say that I don’t get a lot<br />

of constructive stuff back. I<br />

compare this to my five and<br />

six-year-olds, who are full<br />

of inquiry, curiosity, and<br />

constantly making observations<br />

and offering opinion.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y’re at a stage when we<br />

can talk about stuff, share a<br />

joke or discuss a topic.<br />

And although I find myself<br />

often mentally pleading<br />

for at least five minutes<br />

peace and quiet at least<br />

once a day, I’ve actually<br />

missed the banter and fun<br />

that my two little chatterbugs<br />

often bring.<br />

Thirdly: I had entirely underestimated<br />

the amount of<br />

time my big girls keep their<br />

little sisters in-check and<br />

entertained (and out from<br />

under my feet). From their<br />

first waking moment, they<br />

seek each other out and<br />

remain a solid little gang for<br />

the time they are together.<br />

Without their big sisters to<br />

guide/boss them in their<br />

play, I have found the twins<br />

Melissa McDonnell<br />

came to me more frequently<br />

to help resolve their<br />

issues, whereas their Big<br />

Sisters would usually take<br />

charge to sort it without me<br />

knowing. Obviously, this<br />

has kept me in pretty much<br />

constant demand, and so<br />

any such “spare time” I<br />

might have had has pretty<br />

much been occupied.<br />

Summing up: I guess my<br />

“week with three” has been<br />

rather strange. Much to my<br />

surprise, I have actually<br />

missed the busy-ness and<br />

energy around the house<br />

that their quadrangular<br />

creates.<br />

But I know that the Big<br />

Girls have had an amazing<br />

time catching up with their<br />

cousins and creating precious<br />

memories. Equally,<br />

the twins and I have had a<br />

lovely week together – no<br />

deadlines or schedules has<br />

meant solid and special<br />

time together. I guess that’s<br />

what the holidays are all<br />

about – having fun!<br />

Although I must say I<br />

am looking forward to the<br />

day we are all back together<br />

again, the noise is back<br />

and our chaotic balance is<br />

restored.<br />

Lolohea not going anywhere – Warriors boss<br />

DON’T WORRY Warriors fans.<br />

Tui Lolohea isn’t going anywhere.<br />

That’s according to Warriors chief<br />

executive Jim Doyle amid reports<br />

that five clubs are interested in<br />

signing the young utility.<br />

Lara Pitt announced on Fox<br />

Sports’ <strong>The</strong> Monday Night Show<br />

with Matty Johns, that she had<br />

spoken to Lolohea’s manager who<br />

confirmed the star was being lured<br />

away from the club.<br />

Lolohea reportedly received<br />

three text messages from three<br />

different clubs during Saturday<br />

night’s match, and by the end of<br />

the weekend had five clubs offering<br />

him a starting spot.<br />

Doyle said it wasn’t surprising<br />

clubs were interested but<br />

confirmed Lolohea wasn’t going<br />

anywhere.<br />

“To be honest with you there<br />

is probably more than five clubs<br />

interested in Tui, the same there<br />

is with lots of our other players,”<br />

Doyle told Martin Devlin on the<br />

DRS on Radio Sport.<br />

“Tui is a big part of our longterm<br />

future. He’s contracted with<br />

us for this year, next year and 2018<br />

so he’s not going anywhere. He’s<br />

very much part of our future.”<br />

Doyle said a main reason they<br />

granted Thomas Leuluai a release<br />

from his contract was because<br />

they see Lolohea as his replacement<br />

in the halves.<br />

Controversy stirred among the<br />

rugby league fraternity when Lolohea<br />

was kept on the bench until<br />

the 81st minute in the Warriors’<br />

golden-point loss to the Manly Sea<br />

Eagles.<br />

Lolohea, who has been a standout<br />

player for the Warriors this<br />

season, also received limited minutes<br />

against the Sharks in another<br />

golden-point loss back on June 25.<br />

Warriors coach Andrew McFadden<br />

defended his decision saying<br />

they wanted to put Lolohea in the<br />

game, they just didn’t have a place<br />

to put him.<br />

McFadden is reported to have<br />

contacted Lolohea’s manager in a<br />

bid to keep his young playmaker,<br />

saying he still had him in his<br />

plans.<br />

Former-NRL player Matty Johns<br />

said on <strong>The</strong> Monday Night Show<br />

with Matty Johns that he couldn’t<br />

believe Lolohea wasn’t currently<br />

starting.<br />

“I just can’t work it out,” he said.<br />

“A player of such extraordinary<br />

talent.”<br />

Countdown to Rio<br />

Keeping goal at the Olympics<br />

<strong>The</strong> Rio De Janerio Olympic Games begins in two<br />

weeks. Sports reporter Gordon Findlater counts<br />

down to the games, highlighting some of our<br />

brightest talents. This week he looks at Football<br />

Ferns’ goalkeeper Victoria Esson, who helped to<br />

book her spot to the games by playing in the men’s<br />

team<br />

• By Gordon Findlater<br />

FOR VICTORIA Esson, it was<br />

a word in her ear from New<br />

Zealand Football in 2015 that<br />

helped to set her path to Rio.<br />

<strong>The</strong> 25-year-old goalkeeper<br />

attended a Football Ferns trial<br />

camp early last year. She was<br />

advised to join a men’s team to<br />

help with the development of<br />

her game and was sent back to<br />

Christchurch.<br />

Esson spent 2015 playing for<br />

the Ferrymead Bays’ premier<br />

reserve men’s team. <strong>The</strong> tactic<br />

worked – she was selected to<br />

travel with the Football Ferns<br />

squad to Rio.<br />

“It was more around the match<br />

speed and playing at a level weekin-week-out<br />

that isn’t dissimilar<br />

from playing at international<br />

level. It was pretty intimidating<br />

during my first couple of<br />

games, but my team was really<br />

welcoming. Eventually I got used<br />

to the guys, it became a normal<br />

thing in the end, as opposed to<br />

something I wasn’t used to,” said<br />

Esson.<br />

She may now be one of the<br />

country’s top goalkeepers. However,<br />

donning the gloves wasn’t<br />

Esson’s preferred role until midway<br />

through her career.<br />

MAINLAND’S PRIDE: Victoria Esson, 25, is one of three Canterbury players heading to Rio with<br />

the Football Ferns.<br />

a 10-year-old was her first taste<br />

of football. She caught the bug,<br />

quickly signing up to play for<br />

Halswell United.<br />

Esson played outfield with<br />

the boys through 11th, 12th and<br />

13th grade before joining a girls’<br />

team. It wasn’t until she was 17<br />

that playing goalkeeper became<br />

an option.<br />

“I kind of started at the top of<br />

the pitch and moved backwards.<br />

I ended up playing mostly leftback<br />

and centre-back before<br />

switching to keeper.”<br />

In fact, she may have never<br />

made the switch if it wasn’t for a<br />

teammates misfortune.<br />

While at a tournament, her<br />

team’s goalkeeper was injured.<br />

Esson was the only other player<br />

in the team with goalkeeping experience,<br />

although she had never<br />

kept goal in a football match.<br />

Esson spent six years in the net<br />

playing goaltender in her second<br />

sport of choice, ice hockey.<br />

As a youngster, she played<br />

roller hockey before moving onto<br />

the ice. She even represented<br />

Canterbury at national provincial<br />

level before making the decision<br />

to focus on football.<br />

<strong>The</strong> move to goalkeeper paid<br />

immediate dividends and after<br />

only a few years in the role, she<br />

had secured a college scholarship<br />

to Texas Tech University in Lubbock.<br />

Esson had a brief professional<br />

stint with Norwegian club Avaldsnes,<br />

but opted to head back<br />

home to New Zealand. Esson<br />

has since played club football for<br />

Coastal Spirit and Ferrymead<br />

Bays, while also playing for the<br />

Mainland Pride in the national<br />

women’s league.<br />

She’s no stranger to representing<br />

New Zealand at big tournaments,<br />

playing in the under-17<br />

World Cup in New Zealand. She<br />

also took part in two under-20<br />

World Cups in Chile and Germany.<br />

Esson’s role with the national<br />

team in Rio is expected to be<br />

restricted to the training field.<br />

<strong>The</strong> goalkeeper is one of four<br />

travelling reserves selected in the<br />

Olympic squad.<br />

“Every single training you<br />

don’t know what’s going to happen,<br />

so you’ve just got to be ready<br />

to go if you get the call up.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> Football Ferns departed<br />

for Rio on Tuesday to begin their<br />

final pre-tournament training<br />

and get accustomed to conditions.<br />

<strong>The</strong> team face a tough draw.<br />

<strong>The</strong>ir first match is against defending<br />

Olympic champions, the<br />

United States, on August 3. <strong>The</strong>y<br />

then play Columbia and France<br />

in their final group matches.<br />

Despite the tough group, the<br />

team are confident of eclipsing<br />

Football Ferns’ Olympic<br />

draw<br />

these teams somewhere along<br />

the line, so why not do it in our<br />

ANOTHER WEEK, another<br />

game, but Highlanders assistant<br />

coach Tony Brown admits it is just<br />

not one more match.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Highlanders got into their<br />

work yesterday after two days off,<br />

beginning preparations to take on<br />

the Brumbies in a quarterfinal in<br />

Canberra on Friday night.<br />

Brown said the side was getting<br />

excited about the game but this<br />

week was about getting the body<br />

and mind right.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>re will be very little training<br />

[this week] and it is more about recovering<br />

from a pretty tough game<br />

against the Chiefs and us getting<br />

ready to play against a pretty good<br />

Brumbies side,’’ he said.<br />

“We have had a couple of days<br />

off and the guys are a bit sore. But<br />

it is quarter-finals time and we<br />

have been preparing since December<br />

to make it to this stage. Everyone<br />

wants to play and everyone<br />

wants to be ready.<br />

“It’s a bigger game and guys<br />

get more excited around play-off<br />

games. <strong>The</strong> same as the opposition<br />

– they will be bringing a lot<br />

of intensity for the first 20-30<br />

minutes. So it is going to be a huge<br />

challenge early on.<br />

“It’s just about playing good<br />

footy and backing our game and<br />

the way we play the game. Just<br />

making sure defensively we are<br />

clear in what they are going to<br />

throw at us.’’<br />

Brown said as wet weather was<br />

forecast, the side might have to<br />

vary the game plan although it had<br />

to back itself and not get sucked<br />

into playing a style which suited<br />

the Brumbies.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> Australian teams are<br />

always a tough challenge for us.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y have got a lot of good rugby<br />

players and play a pretty good style<br />

of footy. Every time we play an<br />

Aussie team we know we are in for<br />

a tough game.’’<br />

Brown said the Highlanders’<br />

kicking game might come into<br />

play but it depended on many<br />

factors.<br />

“We’ve had a pretty good look at<br />

the Brumbies and we have got our<br />

plans in place . . . there’ll be plenty<br />

of forward driving.’’<br />

Much for the Brumbies will<br />

hinge around the availability of<br />

loose forward David Pocock, who<br />

tries to battle back from an eye<br />

socket fracture.<br />

Brown said the Highlanders<br />

were preparing to face Pocock but<br />

the conditions were also going to<br />

make it tough.<br />

“Canberra is not a great place to<br />

play at night and it is meant to be<br />

raining. So we will have to prepare<br />

for the wet weather. We will just<br />

have to vary our game.’’<br />

line has to contain<br />

the numbers 1-6, and<br />

the numbers can’t be<br />

repeated in any row or<br />

column.<br />

But it’s sudoku with a<br />

twist: <strong>The</strong> numbers in<br />

each heavily outlined<br />

set of squares, called<br />

cages, must produce the<br />

number in the top corner.<br />

For example, 5+ means<br />

the numbers add up to 5,<br />

9x means the numbers<br />

multiply to equal 9.<br />

TIP: Numbers can be repeated in a cage, as long as they are not in the<br />

same line or row.<br />

Driven<br />

Baby Holden provides a Spark<br />

• By Ross Kiddie<br />

THE UNDER $20,000 segment<br />

of the new car market has shown<br />

some resurgence in recent years.<br />

In recent decades it was an<br />

area where manufacturers didn’t<br />

place a big emphasis on – the<br />

margins were small and finding<br />

product wasn’t always easy.<br />

But being able to buy a new<br />

car at the same price as something<br />

pre-owned certainly has<br />

appeal, and there’s now a wealth<br />

of hatchbacks available here<br />

fresh from Asia – especially<br />

China, Japan and South Korea.<br />

One of the latter is Holden’s<br />

Barina Spark, which has been<br />

quite successful for GM Holden,<br />

with a new-generation model<br />

just landing.<br />

It arrives here in three variants<br />

starting at $16,490 for a manual<br />

LS variant (automatic $17,990),<br />

while an LT model tops out at<br />

$19,990 as tested.<br />

Although the Barina Spark<br />

shares its name, it is engineered<br />

a little differently to Barina; the<br />

Spark gets a 1.4-litre engine and<br />

continuously variable transmission,<br />

as opposed to a 1.6-litre<br />

unit and six-speed auto, and it<br />

sits on a floorpan with wheelbase<br />

and track just a little smaller<br />

than Barina.<br />

Nevertheless, the Spark<br />

appeals in other ways, it is most<br />

certainly designed to capture the<br />

imagination of the young, those<br />

buyers who want something<br />

new, as well as being trendy and<br />

funky. It comes with vivid colour<br />

schemes and an interior package<br />

which is bright and breezy,<br />

yet will also lure those from all<br />

generations who don’t have a<br />

big budget. <strong>The</strong> test car often<br />

captured attention, and not just<br />

from the younger set.<br />

Standard fitment on the high<br />

grade model is respectable given<br />

its price point. Major items<br />

include single-zone air conditioning,<br />

leather-like trim, keyless<br />

entry and ignition, electric<br />

windows all round, and Holden’s<br />

sophisticated MyLink infotainment<br />

system.<br />

<strong>The</strong> latter has been upgraded<br />

to include Android Auto<br />

and Apple CarPlay, the latter<br />

interacts with Apple product<br />

through a central dash panel<br />

screen. All of the mobile<br />

functions are available from<br />

there along with navigation and<br />

music accessibility.<br />

More importantly, the<br />

Barina Spark gets a fivestar<br />

Australasian New Car<br />

Assessment Program safety rating.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are five overshoulder<br />

seat belts, no fewer than six air<br />

bags, ISOFIX child seat tethers<br />

and ABS which is aligned to a<br />

traction and stability control<br />

system. <strong>The</strong> latter all operate on<br />

a front disc/rear drum brake system,<br />

one of the few mainstream<br />

hatchbacks left in today’s market<br />

using a rear drum.<br />

<strong>The</strong> designers have put in a<br />

huge effort to make the car userfriendly<br />

and desirable in terms<br />

of kit and functionality. Not only<br />

does it have a bold, eye-catching<br />

exterior appearance, there’s a<br />

host of internal elements that are<br />

there to tempt.<br />

And, what’s more, the Spark<br />

is easy on fuel. Holden claim<br />

an Australian Design Rules<br />

combined average figure of<br />

5.5-litres per 100km (51mpg).<br />

<strong>The</strong> fuel usage readout was constantly<br />

listing around 6.2l/00km<br />

(46mpg) with 5l/100km (56mpg)<br />

INTERACTIVE:<br />

<strong>The</strong> Apple Car<br />

Play links with<br />

Apple product for<br />

infotainment.<br />

available at a steady 100km/h<br />

cruise (engine speed 2000rpm).<br />

Powering the Spark is a<br />

brand new, four-cylinder, twincamshaft,<br />

16-valve unit which<br />

displaces 1298cc. Holden claim<br />

power outputs of 73kW and<br />

124Nm, both reaching their<br />

maximums at traditional points<br />

of the rev band, 6200rpm and<br />

4400rpm respectively.<br />

Consequently, it’s no powerhouse,<br />

and this is reflected<br />

in slowish acceleration times<br />

– 11.2sec to make 100km/h<br />

from a standstill and 7sec to<br />

reach 120km/h from 80km/h.<br />

Realistically, I wouldn’t have<br />

expected anything quicker,<br />

the Spark is not here to scorch<br />

along, but to provide economical<br />

and comfortable travel like small<br />

cars are meant to do.<br />

However, you can stir the little<br />

engine up if you wish, the<br />

seamless gearing of CVT allows<br />

access to the upper rev band<br />

providing the sensation of sporty<br />

motion.<br />

<strong>The</strong> engine is a willing worker,<br />

it emits a cheery, lively sound,<br />

which doesn’t appear strained,<br />

mid-range throttle response is<br />

HOLDEN BARINA<br />

SPARK: .Appealing<br />

design.<br />

relatively eager, there’s no point<br />

where it falls off-cam.<br />

One of the big surprises is the<br />

Spark’s handling and feel from<br />

behind the wheel. A lot of that<br />

has to do with the development<br />

work Holden has done in<br />

Australia for down under conditions.<br />

<strong>The</strong> steering and suspension<br />

calibration has been tuned<br />

for the type of roads we have<br />

down under, including acceptability<br />

when presented with<br />

gravel surfaces.<br />

When it comes to tackling<br />

corners, the Spark has<br />

reasonable steering accuracy<br />

and front end precision. It must<br />

be mentioned that the frontstrut/rear<br />

tube beam suspension<br />

isn’t sophisticated, yet it does a<br />

reasonably good job of soaking<br />

up the uneven road surfaces<br />

and containing body movement<br />

against the force of gravitational<br />

change.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Spark deserves to do<br />

well here, it’s a tough market<br />

to compete in but it stands out<br />

for its design appeal. It is the<br />

quintessential easy-to-drive, easyto-<br />

park vehicle and comes with<br />

all the benefits of buying new.<br />

We’ve brought<br />

our history back<br />

to the future.<br />

Blackwell Motors have been a driving force in business and motoring in our region since 1923 and<br />

we’ve now added another chapter to our illustrious history.<br />

Our two brand new Holden and Mazda new vehicle showrooms on the corner of Moorhouse Ave and<br />

Toyota Fortuner launched<br />

• By Ross Kiddie<br />

TOYOTA NEW Zealand<br />

has recently launched a<br />

new sports utility vehicle.<br />

<strong>The</strong> seven-seat Fortuner<br />

offers a mid-size diesel<br />

SUV set to tackle the<br />

demands of families and<br />

business owners alike with<br />

unprecedented safety, style<br />

and 4WD capability.<br />

Toyota believes the<br />

Fortuner is ideally<br />

positioned to appeal to<br />

those seeking a purposebuilt<br />

and contemporary<br />

SUV and is expected to<br />

sell between 600 and 700<br />

Fortuners in <strong>2016</strong>.<br />

“It’s well positioned<br />

to provide us with<br />

an incremental sales<br />

opportunity, especially<br />

with private buyers,” said<br />

Steve Prangnell, Toyota<br />

New Zealand’s general<br />

manager of sales.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Fortuner range offers<br />

three grades – GX, GXL<br />

and Limited, all powered<br />

by the advanced 2.8-litre<br />

diesel engine launched in<br />

the Land Cruiser Prado<br />

and all-new Hilux at the<br />

end of 2015.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are three drives<br />

modes, eco, normal and<br />

power and an easy to use<br />

four-wheel-drive selector<br />

with the options of high<br />

range 2WD and 4WD or<br />

low range 4WD for when<br />

you need to alternate<br />

from the ultimate urban<br />

transporter through to an<br />

adventure machine.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Fortuner’s engine<br />

produces 130kW and<br />

450Nm of torque. <strong>The</strong><br />

manual has a combined<br />

fuel consumption of<br />

7.8l/100km and the<br />

automatic at 8.6l/100km.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re is a braked tow<br />

rating of 2.8-tonne for<br />

the automatic models<br />

and three tonne for the<br />

manual.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Fortuner gets a<br />

five-star ANCAP safety<br />

rating.<br />

TEAM LAWRENCE<br />

SHOW HOMES<br />

- the ultimate way to shop around<br />

Across Canterbury, we are blessed with an<br />

extensive array of very good quality show homes.<br />

Building companies build show homes to demonstrate<br />

their workmanship, display innovative design ideas and<br />

present a snapshot into a new and luxurious lifestyle,<br />

featuring all the latest in materials, fittings and fixtures.<br />

A show home can inspire you in a way nothing else can.<br />

You can absorb the ambiance they present and admire the<br />

innovative techniques, new materials and technology.<br />

You can ask questions, take notes and compare. You can<br />

see at a glance features you would love to emulate or<br />

would avoid when building your home.<br />

Best of all, you will see the building companies’ attention<br />

to detail. Show homes are the perfect way to get a good<br />

idea of pricing, discover good quality<br />

and value, learn about superior use of space, future-proofing,<br />

ongoing maintenance and<br />

long-term returns. So what are you waiting for? Check<br />

out our maps, grab a notepad and pencil and begin the<br />

exciting project of building your own home.<br />

Home & Property appears<br />

every Thursday, delivered FREE<br />
