Mental
health
unit
problems
escalate
• By Gabrielle Stuart
CANTERBURY mental health
staff have “formally escalated”
problems in a high-needs mental
health unit, which has reached
crisis-level.
They met recently with the
Ministry of Health to discuss
potential solutions to ongoing
problems with violence and
overcrowding in the Assessment
Treatment and Rehabilitation
Unit.
Between January 2014 and
October 2016 there were about
1000 physical assaults recorded
at the unit based at Hillmorton
Hospital. People receiving
compulsory care or with “severe
behavioural disturbance” are
treated at the unit.
Specialist mental health
services general manager Toni
Gutschlag told The Star the
meeting had been held to discuss
challenges at the unit, and to
“seek information about capacity
across the country.”
“How can we better utilise existing
services nationally across
the country to appropriately
match with individual client
needs,” she said.
She said the Ministry of Health
had been asked to help with
management of “the complex
needs of those being supported.”
At a recent meeting with health
board members she said the
situation was becoming volatile,
as full wards made it difficult to
separate violent patients from
one another.

ANYONE WHO has ever
had to sit in hospital next to
a gravely ill child, knows that
leaving their bed side is an
impossibility.
The nights are especially
tough and if you do manage to
catch a few winks of sleep, the
chairs are not especially comfortable.
Mum Joanna Triplow found
this out when her son, only
weeks old, spent time in the paediatric
high dependency unit.
Since then she has been on a
three-year crusade to get more
comfortable furniture and has
made progress, read more over
on page 7.
We received a lot of feedback
regarding the RSA’s bid to
move the Citizens’ War Memorial
away from the crumbling
shadow of the Christ Church
Cathedral. People expressed
their absolute outrage on our
Rise Up Facebook page (page
13) but also wondered whether
it could be too broken to fix. We
have some positive news from
Mayor Lianne Dalziel on page 7
regarding this issue.

THIS WEEK IN CANTERBURY’S PAST
This week in history saw coal from the Malvern Hills
going on sale in Christchurch at £5 10s a ton on April 25,
1854. On the same day in 1864, the Canterbury Horticultural
and Acclimatisation Society was formed. This group
introduced many animals, birds and fish to Canterbury,
and helped to establish the Government Gardens, which
eventually became the Botanic Gardens. In 1977 the
Bridge of Remembrance became a pedestrian precinct. On
April 28 and 29, 1983, the Prince and Princess of Wales
visited the city. On April 29, 1925, Reverend J Archer
became New Zealand’s first Labour mayor. On the same
day in 1974, David Caygill, 25, became the city’s youngest
ever acting mayor (for five days). On April 30, 1971, 6000
protesters (right) marched against the war in Vietnam.

LEAF NUISANCE
Although autumn makes the
city’s trees look pretty, it can be
a nuisance for contractors. The
leaves require hours of raking
and street cleaning, making
sure they don’t block kerbs
so it is easy to park, and work
to keep sumps and channels
clear – particularly now with
the recent rain. City council
contractors will be out checking
tree-lined streets over the season,
particularly streets that are
normally problematic.

Lyttelton artist
to immortalise
McCaw
• By Noah Graham
MARK WHYTE has restored Gothic
buildings, sculpted war heroes and
created a bronze sled dog – now he will
add an All Black captain to his list.
The Lyttelton sculptor has been
commissioned by the Kurow Museum
Committee to craft a bronze statue of
one of the greatest All Black captains,
Richie McCaw.
Mr Whyte said the statue will be
about 2m tall and will stand in Kurow
– McCaw’s home town.
He is looking forward to meeting
McCaw in the next few months to
realise his character, which will help
him create a clay casing for the statue,
Mr Whyte said.
Mr Whyte’s most notable work in
Canterbury is the statue of double Victoria
Cross recipient Charles Upham at
Amberley.
He said he is used to sculpting war
heroes but it will be a similar process
crafting the McCaw statue and the
challenge will come from making it as
accurate as possible.
“I’m meticulous. I do my utmost to
get the true character of a person.”
Mr Whyte said he did not
want to create a sculpture that
would reflect anything other
than a real portrayal of McCaw.
•From page 1
Recently, $6600 in modifications
were made in an attempt to
make the unit safer. On a 24-hour
shift there are five staff on evening
shifts, and two overnight.
A Ministry of Health spokeswoman
said those involved in
the meeting would not answer
questions from The Star about
options being considered, as
they felt that would be “inappropriate”
before decisions had
been made.
Minister of Health Jonathan
Coleman also did not answer
questions from The Star. A
spokeswoman for him said
he would not be commenting
because it was an “operational
matter.”
Labour health spokesman David
Clark said the Government
was trying to put “a band-aid on
a gaping wound.”
“The Government has refused
to adequately fund mental
health in Christchurch in spite
of evidence of demand,” he said.
The CDHB was given an extra
$44 million in funding last year,
but told the Ministry of Health
that was not enough to cover the
extra demand for services since
the earthquakes.
Funding specifically for

Mental health unit problems escalate
mental health services in
Canterbury dropped last
year to $222 per person,
significantly below the $243
national average.
The number of Canterbury
children or youth accessing
mental health services has
grown 55 per cent over the past
three years, and this year rose
from 626 in January to 714 in
February.
In Brief
COSTS FOR HAGLEY OVAL
Upgrading Hagley Oval for the
upcoming cricket season will
cost about $1.5 million. The
city council has already spent
$808,000 on the oval. That
included $465,000 on sight
screens, $30,000 on cable trays,
$125,000 on temporary steps
on the embankment, $40,000
on shade sails, $105,000 for a
protected roadway, $25,000 on
bollards, and $18,000 for storage
of the steps and sight screens.
Work to reshape the embankment
will be done over winter, costing
$600,000. On top of that, the city
council is also proposing to install
camera tower foundations to the
price of $100,000.
BOIL WATER WARNING
People in Governors Bay are told
to keep boiling their water at least
for the rest of the week. The city
council has issued a reminder that
water needs to be treated after last
Thursday’s routine testing came
back showing traces of E.Coli.
The effected reservoir has
been treated with chlorine and
chlorinated water has also
been flushed through the pipe
network.
CAR PARK FOR RESERVE
Burwood’s Horseshoe Lake
Reserve will get a new 28-space
car park – but it is likely to lose
its footbridge. The city council is
asking for feedback on a plan to
replace the original earthquakedamaged
seven space car park
with a larger one. There is room
for more car parks at a later
date. It also wants to remove the
footbridge, and replace it with a
rockery.
ELECTRIC CAR CONVOY
Christchurch has broken the
New Zealand record for having
the most electric vehicles at one
place. As part of the Leading the
Charge Bluff to Cape Reinga road
trip, 103 electric vehicles gathered
at Canterbury University on
Saturday. That passed the previous
record of 62, set by Whangarei on
Easter Saturday.

Health board
boss also has
parking trouble
• By Gabrielle Stuart
AS HE faces criticism for parking
problems around Christchurch
Hospital, health board chief
executive David Meates has revealed
he faces the same parking woes as
his staff.
He has refused an assigned car
park, choosing instead to pay for
parking in the parking building
used by Canterbury District Health
Board staff. That was because he
didn’t want to create a doublestandard,
he said.
“I choose not to have a dedicated
car park, in spite of being chief executive
of the 10th or 11th largest
organisation in the country,” he said.
He also drives his own car, not a
CDHB vehicle. He was responding
to an accusation he would see the
parking situation differently if he, or
his family, faced the same struggles.
But Mr Meates said one of his
daughters worked for the CDHB last
year, and was not given any special
treatment.
Health board members also do
not have any dedicated car parks,
and sometimes have to park blocks
away when attending meetings at
the CDHB boardroom on Oxford
Tce.
Quake memorial confusion cleared up
• By Bridget Rutherford
SIGNAGE WILL be installed to
point people to the Canterbury
Earthquake National Memorial,
and explain what the pounamu
there represents.
It comes after tourists were
confused as to what the pounamu
meant and where the memorial,
which commemorates
those killed and injured in the
February 22, 2011, earthquake,
was located.
The signage will go on
the city council’s various
Wayfinding Towers, and on the
stainless steel stands in Cashel
Mall.
The central city’s signage
plinths would also be updated
to include information to help
people find their way to the
memorial.
An Otakaro Ltd spokesman
said a plaque would be installed
near the pounamu greenstone to
explain its meaning as part
of the Avon River Precinct
works.
“The text is currently being
finalised,” he said.
The pounamu greenstone
was gifted by Te Runanga o
Makaawhio.

Commuter train funding
plan fails to reach destination
• By Gabrielle Stuart
A Christchurch commuter
train crowdfunding
campaign has failed to
reach its $1.8 million target
– but a private partnership
could still bring the plan
to life.
Organiser Tane Apanui
(right) held meetings
about the plan with several
organisations this month,
including Environment
Canterbury, Ara Institute
of Canterbury and Ngāi
Tahu.
The Dash Rail plan
would use second-hand
passenger trains from
Auckland, and run them
on the existing tracks
between Selwyn, Waimakariri
and the central city.
People had pledged
$86,455 to the campaign
before it closed on Sunday,
but that money will be
refunded because it failed
to reach the target.
But organiser Tane
Apanui said the campaign
had drawn a lot of interest,
and he was hopeful a business
partnership could be
formed to get the plan off
the ground.
“I don’t see it as a failure
at all, because the public
support and interest in this
has been really strong,” he
said.
Ara sustainability manager
Shaun Bowler said no
commitment to the plan
had been made, but he was
open to further meetings
with Mr Apanui about it.
A survey of about 2400
staff and students at Ara
last year found many
wanted better public transport,
he said.
He said more than 1000
staff and 18,000 students
were based at Ara, and the
location of the proposed
station on Moorhouse Ave
would work well for them.
“In principle, we support
anything that gives people
more choice and provides
more sustainable transport
options,” he said.
ECan chairman David
Bedford said it had considered
the viability of a rail
service in Christchurch
several times.
“In short, the cost has
been too great to support
the projected patronage,”
he said.

War memorial meeting
• By Bridget Rutherford
MAYOR LIANNE Dalziel is
arranging a meeting to ensure
options to move the Citizens’
War Memorial are developed as
a “matter of priority.”
Christchurch Memorial RSA
wants the cenotaph moved from
Cathedral Square to Cranmer
Square, where
Anzac Day
commemorations
are now
held, in time
for Armistice
Day, 2018.
“I spoke
Lianne Dalziel
to members
of the RSA
yesterday [Anzac Day] and have
undertaken to arrange a meeting
between them, council staff and
Regenerate Christchurch to ensure
that options for the possible
relocation of the cenotaph are
developed as a matter of priority,”
Ms Dalziel told The Star.
“Options would need to spell
out the feasibility of the move,
the cost and who would pay.”
Paul O’Connor, who is spearheading
the relocation project,
said he spoke to Ms Dalziel,
which was encouraging.
“I’m picking from what she
PROGRESS: Mayor Lianne Dalziel is organising a meeting

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER
said she’s not going to let it lie.”
The memorial sits on Anglican
Diocese land, but it is the responsibility
of the city council.
It had been fenced off since the
February 22, 2011, earthquake,
until Tuesday when some exservicemen
were allowed temporary
access to lay a wreath.
Because of its heritage listing,
resource consent would be
needed to move it.
City council head of parks
Andrew Rutledge said until they
could access the cenotaph to do
a full invasive investigation, it
was unknown whether it could
be moved.
Ms Dalziel acknowledged its
current location was significant,
because it asserted the cultural
connection between the cenotaph,
Cathedral and the square.

Mother on a crusade
for hospital chairs
• By Bridget Rutherford
WHEN nine-week-old Jack
Triplow was admitted to the
children’s ward with a virus three
years ago, his mum Joanna did
not leave his side.
He spent seven days in hospital
– five of which were in the
paediatric high dependency unit
– and Mrs Triplow, and husband
Brad, realised the furniture was
uncomfortable and difficult to
move.
She slept on a fold-out bed that
only a nurse could set up, while
other parents in the ward slept
on wooden chairs.
“You just don’t leave your
babies when they’re in HDU.”
Now, she and her friend Renee
Jones are fundraising to buy 12
hospital-standard recliners and
pull-out beds to make families’
stays more comfortable.
It took more than three years
to find furniture that was antibacterial,
reliable, able to be fixed
in Christchurch and on wheels
so it could be moved easily.
They have found two suitable
models – a recliner, and pull-out
bed – made by local company

Conan Fee
Creating a path
Next year, Canterbury University will open a
completely new School of Product Design. Head of
school Conan Fee spoke to Gabrielle Stuart about
robots, inventions and encouraging creativity
PROGRESS: Both an engineer and a musician himself, Conan Fee is working on a new degree
which combines engineering and the arts.
PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN
Tell me about the school you’re
creating?
The idea is that graduates will
be technically literate and can
engineer something feasible, but
also understand how to design
something beautiful for the end
user, and then how to take what
they have created to market.
It will be quite hands-on in
that respect. Once you have
your product and your end user
in mind you can go right into
prototyping, with access to all
kinds of ‘maker spaces’, where
you can create things and try
them. So these students could
go anywhere, working in the
medical field or in education
or creating sports equipment,
anything.
I remember as a student, engineering
and arts students would
constantly mock each other. It
was like they spoke different
languages. How on earth do you
combine the two disciplines?
We didn’t actually set out to do
that. This degree started with a
blank slate. We said what do we
want to produce in a graduate?
Many years ago, when I was
working at University of Waikato,
we had about 5000 management
students at the time. I
remember thinking they were
probably going to end up just
selling each other cellphones. The
question is, who is creating the
product for them to manage?
I could also see a whole group
of talented students at high
school who don’t have the depth
in things like maths or chemistry
that they would need to be engineers,
but who have enormous
creativity. Creativity seems to be
something that is encouraged
in pre-school, but seems to be
lost or trained out of us as we get
older. This is helping to create
a pathway for people with that
creativity.
And the other side of it is the
entrepreneurs who have created
successful products and businesses,
but have had to do it by
the seat of their pants.

for future entrepreneurs to follow
Can you tell me about your
own background?
I was born and raised in
Christchurch. The fork in the
road for my career was when I
was a student trying to decide
whether I wanted to become a
musician or an engineer. I chose
engineering, because it seemed a
more secure career path. I did my
training in chemical engineering
and followed the academic path
to become Dean of Engineering,
but I moulded it to my interests
a lot.
So did you keep playing
music?
Not as much as I’d have liked
to. I probably spent too much
time practising piano when I
should have been practising
engineering, and too much time
engineering when I should have
been playing piano.
Have you any inventions of
your own?
I’ve got a couple of patents,
but they have never made a cent.
Most are quite technical. One
was a protein extraction robot,
which could extract protein from
milk right on a farm, to create a
much higher-value product.
If you had done this course
yourself, do you think those
inventions would have turned
out differently?
Yes, I do think so. Designing
a protein extract machine with
the end user, the farmer, in mind,
you would approach it differently.
Nespresso is a good example.
The idea was to make baristaquality
coffee, but make it easily
accessible to people at home. As
a functional product it worked
well, but it took about 30-odd
years before it took off. It didn’t
become popular until they incorporated
the different designs and
styles, and the right marketing.
And George Clooney, too, but
we don’t offer him as part of this
course, unfortunately.
If this kind of course works
so well, why hasn’t it been done
before?
I think things have come
together now for the first time.
If a student can conceive an idea
they now have all the digital tools
on their tablet to create a 3D
design. Then they can 3D print
a prototype, without needing all
the equipment they did in the
past, or having to study for years
all those industry skills you once
needed to use the equipment.
TECH: Using
technology,
like virtual
reality, is
one of the
things the
School of
Product
Design
plans
to help
students
explore.
The world is changing. Look at
China, the online connectivity
there and the number of small
companies that have developed
because of it. You can order just
about anything and have it arrive
on your doorstep a couple of
weeks later.
The other thing is artificial intelligence,
robots. Even what we
consider highly-trained knowledge
workers, I think will lose
their jobs to artificial intelligence.
Think about architecture - you
can now design your own house
using just a computer and some
software. So as that develops,
where does that leave architects
and draftsmen? But a job that
won’t be lost, is human-centred
product design.
And personally, why have you
stayed in Christchurch?
It’s this. I’ve turned down
approaches from other schools
overseas asking me to come and
do more of the same there, because
I have already followed the
classic academic career. But this,
the idea that we can take a whole
group of young people who didn’t
necessarily have a pathway open
for them, and create a host of
graduates who will go out with
these skills and with enthusiasm
to create new things: This fills me
with hope.
There is a vibe about the city
now, it is open to innovation. I
think that was the silver lining
that came from the earthquakes.
We have built modern buildings,
yes, but also the gap fillers and
the murals, which were creative
and edgy and outside the old
social norms. They’re what has
pulled people forward. People
came from all over the world to
help with rebuilding the city, and
they’re now saying what’s next? I
know that’s the question on my
mind, anyway.

East Frame work begins
I AM pleased to say
there is physical work
happening on all
committed Crown-led
projects in central
Christchurch.
Fletcher Living held
a ground-breaking ceremony at
the site last week, signalling the
start of construction on the East
Frame residential development.
Construction of the first batch
of new central city homes is officially
under way on what’s known
as Superlot 4, on the corner of
Hereford St and Latimer Square.
Crown company Ōtākaro Ltd
and Fletcher Living have been
working together on plans to create
a new central city community.
Alongside construction of the
new dwellings, Ōtākaro – which
is delivering the Crown-led anchor
projects for Christchurch –
is overseeing the construction of
the East Frame’s public realm.
This will be the third-largest
public space in Christchurch and
it’s expected to be completed by
early next year.
The biggest challenge has been
getting the mixture of housing
right. Because we are creating a
new community, homes need to
be available in a range of styles
and sizes. We want to attract as
many people as possible into this
development, so we’ve taken the
time to make sure we’ve got this
right.
Gerry Brownlee
By putting more effort into
the planning and design of the
East Frame, Ōtākaro and Fletcher
Living should be more prepared
for the construction stage of the
development.
In spite of the extra time spent
planning, the first 20 terraced
houses in the East Frame residential
development will be completed
in May 2018 – five months
ahead of the original schedule.
The East Frame will consist of
about 900 homes, with a combination
of terraced homes and
apartments. These are expected to
house more than 2000 people.
The future residents will have
everything at their doorstep. As
well as the first-class amenities,
GROUND-BREAKING:
Fletcher Building residential
and land development chief
executive Steve Evans and
Ōtākaro’s Albert Brantley.
Christchurch’s regenerating city
offers a great range of new cafes,
bars, restaurants and shops.
The East Frame homes will
flank the East Frame public
space. This is a 660m linear park
that runs through the five blocks
from Litchfield St to the Margaret
Mahy Family Playground.
Construction of the East
Frame residential development
marks an important milestone in
the rejuvenation of our city. This
fantastic new community will
attract people back into the heart
of Christchurch.

Remembering the
lives cut short by war
THIS Anzac week
we have taken the
opportunity to
reflect on the service
of thousands of men
and women who
have – and still do – dedicate
their lives to their country.
I had the privilege of attending
four ceremonies across Wigram
on Tuesday. Each service was
moving, poignant and different.
This is how it should be – communities
finding their own
unique way to remember their
pasts.
At dawn in Upper Riccarton,
an increasing number of people
each year gather in the War
Memorial Library. This small
library is run by a small but
dedicated team of volunteers.
It was at this service that I witnessed
the birth of a new Anzac
tradition – a cupcake replete
with edible poppy.
At the Hornby War Memorial,
many of the names are familiar
Hornby names. I always find it
especially poignant hearing the
local school children read out
short biographies of the names
on the memorial. This really
brings it home that these were
young men who made their
hopes and their dreams in this
same local area; who walked on
the same ground, but had their
lives cut short by war.
Another unique ceremony we
have is the service for residents
of Rannerdale Veterans Village
and their families. This ceremony
is touching in that so many
of the attendees know the lived
reality of war. The highlight this
year was that the Rannerdale
Choir debuted their Rannerdale
Song.
My day finished at the Air
Force Museum of New Zealand,
Wigram, where about a thousand
people gathered. Many of
those who attended once called
the airforce base home, and they
now mix with the more recent
recruits to the neighbourhood
from what we now call Wigram
Skies. The museum is a living
memorial to people who
have served in the Royal New
Zealand Air Force. This was
underscored by the unveiling of
an additional plaque bearing the
names of personnel who had lost
their lives serving in the airforce
in the last two years.

PROBLEM: The Ministry of Health shut down a plan for a
700-space car park near Christchurch Hospital two years ago.
PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN
Last week The Star
reported that the Ministry
of Health shut down a
plan two years ago for a
700-space car park near
Christchurch Hospital
because it decided there
was not enough demand
for it
Alison Paulsen – Is it
possible to select people with a
modicum of intelligence for these
positions? If malls, bars, etc have
to have car parks, a hospital dealing
with hundreds of people on a
24/7 basis should make parking
a priority.
Gary Fox – There’s people
screaming out for car parks at
the hospital. They have done so
for quite a while now. How is
there no demand, really? I still
think the best option is to move
the hospital to a larger site to
allow for more parking. I don’t
think it’s too late to do this and
sell the current site, as is, to a
hotel chain. The surrounding
Hagley Park would ensure quite a
nice price could be achieved.

•From page 11
Valerie McCallum – What
a pathetic excuse. Everyone
who lives in Christchurch
knows there is a chronic shortage
of parking around hospitals.
The odd thing about this
is that there is never a shortage
at most (not all) of the malls
where taxpayers and visitors go
to spend money and time.
Linda
Hunt – Hard
when you
take someone
who is really
sick into the
accident and
emergency
department
and you are
a holder of
a disability
parking permit
and you
have to drop
them off and
leave them
alone to try
finding a car
park in the
middle of the
night. Every
disability car
park has a
car in it with no card. Took me
nearly one hour to get back to
accident and emergency after
finding a park in the middle of
nowhere. I was so scared. Then
I had to do it all again when I
left on my own to walk back
to the car. Nurses have been
attacked. Does someone have
to die before they engage their
tiny brains?
Tina Bailey – Where was
the site and is it still available?
Surely the Ministry of Health
can admit it made an error
and continue with the plan.
Parking around the hospital for
patients, visitors and staff is at
crisis point and is only getting
worse. Another example of
Christchurch getting screwed
over by the Government.
The Christchurch RSA
said that if money can be
found to put a “piece of
art in the river to collect
rubbish,” why can’t it
be found to shift the
deteriorating Citizens’ War
Memorial away from the
crumbling Christ Church
Cathedral?
Helen Ollis – I have lived
in Canterbury all my life. My
grandad fought for our country
in World War 1. My thoughts
are with soldiers present and
past, how would they feel seeing
the memorial lingering
amongst the derelict eyesore?
Stephen Graham – Leave
it where it is. It’s damaged and
shifting it would be an expensive
engineering nightmare.
It will be repaired
and in
its full glory
again. Just
need patience.
Carolyn
Fifield – I
don’t believe
the city council
can do
anything as it
is on church
land. My
understanding
is that the
church used
the insurance
money
elsewhere as
it wanted to
replace the
Cathedral
with a much
cheaper glass option, and now
do not have the funds, in spite
of funding and contributions
from central and local government,
plus millions of dollars
raised overseas.
Joy Averis – The city
council needs to get its priorities
right. Totally agree with
the RSA, the magnificent (well
it was magnificent) memorial
needs to be removed from the
sight and Cranmer Square is a
good place to have it sited. May
have to get a petition set up or
even crowd funding. Come on
city council, respect those men
who died to keep us free.
Richard Long – The whole
situation just shows how poorly
the rebuild has been handled
and its effects on residents.
Such a shame to see our city
fall into ruins with such mismanagement
and such narrowminded
thinking. I feel we have
missed the opportunity to rise
up as a world class city. The city
council, Cera, Government,
Anglican Church and all of
us should be ashamed that we
have allowed this to happen.

PRIZE
PACK!
Nothing makes
the neighbours green
with envy, or the
kids happier than
a well-maintained,
lush, green lawn.
Autumn is the best
time to sow a new lawn or tackle any lawn
problems. Over sow any bare or brown patches
in the lawn with Daltons Premium 4-in-1 Lawn Patching Gold, which
has everything in one bag and is super easy to use. Feed lawns with
Daltons Premium Lawn Fertiliser until late April.
Q
A
I have used a product to spray the weeds and now have
some sparse patches.
My question is; how do I thicken my lawn and when do I do it?
Today’s winning
question came from
Kathleen Petersen.
Congratulations!
While it is rather late for sowing a lawn, soil temperatures do cool slower than air temperatures, so
you can still sow some grass seed on the patches in your lawn - but do this immediately!
Spread out Daltons Premium Lawn Mix about 40-50mm deep. Level and compact with a rake, then
broadcast the seed evenly over the area. Alternatively, if the areas are small, you can use Daltons Premium
4-in-1 Lawn Patching Gold, which has everything in one bag and is very easy to use.
Water lightly to initiate germination, which should occur between seven and ten days. If the weather suddenly
becomes very cold or there is exceptionally heavy rainfall, the amount of seed germinating will be somewhat
reduced so you will need to repeat the process in early spring of this year.
In general, to obtain the best results when establishing a lawn, grass seed should be sown in early
autumn or early spring. For more advice and varieties to grow, read the How to Grow Lawns Guide at

research observatory.
China Southern Airlines announced
it would become Mt John Observatory’s
official sponsorship partner at a
ceremony on Friday.
The university runs the facility, which
sits in a 4300 sq km area called the
Aoraki Mackenzie International Dark
Sky, near Tekapo.
Its research includes the search for
extra-solar planets, tracking of nearearth
objects and the study of pulsating,
variable and exploding stars.
Tourism company Earth & Sky runs
public tours through the facility.
Canterbury University Pro Vice
Chancellor of Science Wendy Lawson
said the partnership was “fabulous.”
She said the new partnership was
likely to boost the number of students
wanting to study astronomy.
Following the February 22, 2011,
earthquake there had been less staff
at Mt John, but more could be done
remotely through the use of new
technology.
Although financial details of the
partnership have been kept under wraps,
Professor Lawson said it would include
the public having access to the research
done there.
“It’s great to have the support.”
Ten per cent of the funding would go
to the Mackenzie District Council for
tourism infrastructure in Tekapo.
The catalyst for the partnership
came about when China Southern
Airlines began flying into Christchurch
International Airport in December, 2015
– the only Chinese airline to fly into the
South Island.
Airport chief executive Malcolm Johns
said from there, the airline asked how
it could contribute further to the South
Island.
He said Tekapo was a destination for
Chinese visitors, so the partnership
made sense.
China Southern Airlines Australasian
managing director Louis Lu said
Chinese students came to study at the
university, and a lot of people came over
to visit.
“China Southern Airlines and Mt
John Observatory are sharing the same
sky, and we are also looking forward to
the same dream to make it come true,
not only for passengers, but also for
students.”
The observatory, which opened in
1965, houses a 1.8m telescope – the
country’s largest.

Theatre/Arts
Performer treks into unknown
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
KATHLEEN BURNS has always
been captivated by the dangers
of travelling into space.
A Star Wars, Star Trek and
Battlestar Galactica enthusiast,
the 31-year-old had always loved
the “high stakes” and drama of
shows set in the galaxy.
After being heavily involved
as a performer with The Court
Theatre for more than 13 years,
Burns has taken her career in a
new direction crafting her first
original play.
The Parklands resident has
transformed one of the world’s
most well-known fairytales into
an adventurous sci-fi about a
slave space mechanic named
Cinderella.
Cinderella In Space is a new
adaptation to the 1950 Disney
animated film, telling the story
of a young heroine forced by an
evil “Captain Step-Mummy”
to clean a space station even
though she would rather build
robots.
Burns described the original
character of Cinderella as a “bit
of a victim” who gets helped out
NEW DIRECTION: Kathleen Burns on set of her first original show at The Court Theatre.
of her situation so she can marry
rich.
“I just think we can do better
than this . . . we can make her
a woman who does things

Cinderella and Ralph McCubbin Howell as Captain
Step-Mummy in Kathleen Burns’ first original show Cinderella
in Space.
and affects change to her
environment and makes her a
role model worthy of aspiring
to,” she said.
Since she was a child, one of
Burns’ favourite past-times was
“writing dialogue.”
“What I didn’t know about
myself was I wanted to write
plays . . . I loved using those
speech marks,” she said.
For the past decade her
writing dreams were put on hold
to pursue performing.
She ditched her double
degree in psychology and
gender studies at Canterbury
University, going onto to study
at the National Academy of
Singing and Dramatic Art.
“I got two-and-a-half years
into it and I was like, I don’t
want to spend one more second
going down a path I don’t
want to go down, and literally
overnight I was like, I am
throwing all of this in,” she
said.
Before then, she first cut her
teeth entertaining youths on
a Friday night with The Court
Jesters.
“Definitely, you have to love
it. For starters, nobody in this
industry is paid enough to
warrant doing it without the love
and drive for it,” she said.
So far, the highlight of her
performing career was working
with well-known actor George
Henare.
“His approach to the work is
so uncomplicated and it reminds
me acting should be really
simple,” she said.
Her first gig as a writer had
her frightened but she said she
needed to try something new.
“I always knew writing is
hard. I have so much respect
for writers . . . I am still outside
thinking it is a magical allusive
thing other people do,” she
said.

High profile
faces for
Court
production
BEST KNOWN for his role
in Australian television soap
opera Neighbours, actor Stephen
Lovatt will take the stage in
The Court Theatre’s newest
production Uncle Vanya.
With a career spanning 30
years, Lovatt has performed on
stage, television and in film.
He will now play the leading
role Vanya in a show about family,
love and
heartbreak.
As part
of the story,
Vanya and his
niece Sonya
have laboured
for years on
Stephen Lovatt
Shane Bosher
their family’s
country estate
in relative harmony.
But when
Sonya’s father
returns from
the big city with
a glamorous
new bride, unfulfilled
desires
and fierce family
loyalties collide to destroy the
status quo.
The show is by Russian
playwright Anton Chekhov
(1860–1904), who is known for
his fictional short stories.
Lovatt is not the only high profile
performer involved with the
show, with four-times The New
Zealand Listener magazine’s “director
of the year” Shane Bosher
set to direct.
Bosher said he had Uncle Vanya
at the top of his “must direct”
bucket list. He said audiences will
be able to identify themselves and
the people they interact within
the show.

May 13 - June 3. To book

5 QUESTIONS WITH...DAVID SEYMOUR - ACT leader
David is an economic conservative and a
social liberal. He’s a Member of Parliament
for Epsom, ACT Party Leader, and
Parliamentary Undersecretary to the
Ministers of Education and Regulatory
Reform. He’s also a mover and shaker who
got the bars to stay open for the World Cup
and got government to make a couple of
changes to paid parental leave.
Recognized as being thoughtful, mature,
and articulate, opponents would be wise not
to underestimate this Undersecretary. We
asked him five quick questions;
You’re a bit of a builder (cars, kayaks
etc). Do you have any other hidden
talents?
Yes, some of them very well hidden, such as
my guitar playing, which I still hope will take
off after 24 years. I like to cook, I make
pizzas from scratch, base and all.

I was sitting at home and some students
across the road invited me to their party
by Facebook. They are good, because 18-24
year old voter turnout is so low, politicians
need to think about how they connect with
younger
demographics because what we’re doing
clearly isn’t working. Plus they’re fun. Who
doesn’t miss the student/yo-pro years of
their life?
Can you tell us why you support the
voluntary euthanasia bill?
Three reasons. It is democratically right
when 75 per cent of New Zealanders want
change. It is legally right when the High Court
says only Parliament can make the change.
Lastly and most importantly it is morally
right. We allow people to refuse treatment,
refuse food and water, or to be given a little
too much morphine by their doctor under
the ‘double effect’ doctrine. It is not illegal to
commit amateur, violent, lonely suicide, either.
Sadly some New Zealanders take those
options, and I think we should have another
option in 2017; to choose for ourselves
though a safeguarded process.
When you’re not working, what does
David Seymour get up to in his spare
time?
My homemade sports car always needs TLC,
I would work on it almost permanently given
the chance. I try to make sure I catch up
with my close friends, my school friends at
least weekly. It’s important to remember
who you are.
If you were asked to change profession
tomorrow what would you chose to be?
I’d go back to being an electrical engineer.
There is something deeply rewarding about
using maths and science to make a better
world.

cruising CUBA
Montercristo cigars, Salsa dancing, beautiful beaches and don’t forget the rum!
Cuba is a magical country which is truly
stuck in a time warp.
From the moment you set foot in Cuba,
life seems brighter and more energetic. The
music and dancing is everywhere – in the
plazas, in the courtyards, in the bars, in the
clubs, and on the street corners.
There are a few international standard
hotels outside the beach resort areas.
Varadero, Cuba’s most popular beach resort
town is dotted with the majority of these
all-inclusive hotels. If relaxing on the beach
or free drinks by the pool are high on your
holiday priority list, you won’t be disappointed.
The sun-drenched coastline, warm weather
and turquoise waters are pinch yourself
amazing.
Those wanting a more authentic Cuban
experience will find the treasure trove of
fascinating architecture of old Habana the best
base to explore from. The old squares are like
walking back in time to the colonial era. Here
you’ll find plenty of casa particulars, which are
state approved private homes with licenses to
rent rooms to tourists. Staying at a casa
particular, is a good way to get to know
Cubans and every day life in Havana. It’s the

people of Cuba that really makes a visit to the
island unique. Since Cuba hasn’t been crushed
with an overwhelming influx of tourism - yet,
having visitors is still special for them.
Don’t expect to be wowed by Cuba’s gastronomic
delights. The food is relatively basic.
Pork is the main protein and the most popular
way you’ll see it served is in simple sandwich
form. And black beans are served with everything.
They’re like the gravy of Cuban food.
To find the most flavoursome food, paladares,
which are family owned and operated is the
best option. You’ll be able to judge the quality
by the number of locals lining up outside.
Cuba has no multinational franchises such
as McDonalds, KFC or Starbucks. You can’t
buy Coca Cola and, for the great majority of
travellers, this is an essential part of its charm.
What the food may lack in pizzaz, the
alcohol definitely makes up for. Mojitos, cuba
libres, cubanitos and are plentiful. You will be
wanting to stuff your suitcase with Cuban
rum.
There’s also no shortage of colourful 1950’s
American cars cruising the streets. These cars
have become a part of Cuba’s identity that
visitors want to see and experience.
10% Off for SUPERGOLD card holders
Conditions may apply
Regardless of political changes, we can assume
the cars will remain part of Cuba’s automotive
workforce.
From Havana in the north to Santiago in the
south is a 15 hour bus ride, so if you only have
a week you’ll want to spend the majority of
time in Havana. From Havana you can do day
trips. Matanzas (2 hrs to west) has caves and is
not far from the resorts of Varadero. Vinales
(3 hrs on the bus) to the west of Havana,
has beautiful countryside and is the heart of
Cuba’s cigar country. A visit to a cigar factory
is a must. Cigars from different batches are
actually blind tested by a team of ‘professional
smokers’, whose sole job it is to assess
qualities such as aroma, how well it burns, and
how easily it draws.
Now is the best time to get to Cuba.
Airplanes full of tourists are landing for the
first time in over 50 years, opening up a
floodgate of incoming dollars. And it’s not
Amricans, it’s everyone else trying to get there
before them. While there are direct flights
from the US, Americans still cant travel to
Cuba independently, only on organised trips.
But this will likely soon change and so too will
Cuba.

loop around lyttElton
for a post-walk caffiene injection head to one of Lyttletons’ creative coffee haunts.
Joel Hart - New Brighton. January 2017
Just twenty minutes from the centre of
town, Lyttelton was awarded the Category of
Historic Area Status, as one of the most
special places to meander outside the city.
Lyttelton has rebuilt it’s quirky, coffee
culture vibe and post Urumaru or
Whakaraupo walk, you’ll find a eclectic mix
of coffee shops to sit and relax in to recharge
your batteries.
WALK:
Urumaru Loop - 3.5 hour circular
For the nimble-footed, who like scrambling
up hills and narrow cliff paths, the Urumaru
track will reward you with amazing views over
Lyttelton Harbour, Sumner and Christchurch.
You’ll need to pick a fine day for this walk as it
includes a couple of steeper climbs and small
goat tracks. Much of the track is unformed
with simple directional markers.
Whakaraupo Loop - 2 hour circular
Another walk with great views, the
Whakaraupo Reserve on the Stan Helms
Track and back down the historic Bridle Path,
is a well formed walk.
COFFEE STOP:
Lyttelton Coffee Co - 29 London St
The 1921 heritage-noted building has one of
the best views in town. Gaining press
attention for cutting out trim milk from their
coffees (they save 15,000 milk cartons a year
from landfill, through using stainless steel milk
canisters!) Here you’ll find local art,
wholesome food and fantastic smells of
roasted coffee.
Spooky Boogie - 54 London St
A relatively new entrant on to London Street,
Spooky Boogie is the place to go if you want
to purchase some new vinyl, art or quirky
giftware. With a local reputation for great
coffee, it’s a buzzing little cafe where you can
easily while away the hours people watching
or reading the books and papers.
Shroom Room Cafe - 48 London St
You’ll find a great coffee and a varied
vegetarian menu at this eclectic cafe. On a
nice day the outdoor seating area, complete
with mismatched chairs is a relaxing spot to
enjoy one of the delicious milkshakes on
offer.

The Lonely Planet has named Christchurch as one of 39 cities around the world
with a rich street art scene.
Christchurch is spoilt for choice, with
amazing street art splashed across the central
city. Artists have transformed dilapidated
buildings and alleyways, turning them into
places of gritty beauty. What started after
the 2011 earthquakes as basic tags, quickly
grew more complex, and soon enough major
murals were starting to take up full
building walls. Well-respected graffiti artists
from outside Christchurch have added their
contributions and the city is now abundant
with colourful and vibrant works of art which
can be found on almost every corner.
Sometimes the line between graffiti art and
vandalism can be a hazy one. But the is no
question that the art has breathed a new and
colourful breath of live in to the damaged city.
Too make sure you haven’t missed some of
the hidden gems, It’s well worth having a look
on http://christchurchstreetart.co.nz for a
map of all of the murals around the city.

the dreaded turKey neck
Get rid of the ‘gobble gobble’ with the correct treatments!
If you thought your hands show your age,
take a look at your neck.
That old ‘gobble gobble’ excess of skin is
one of the hardest to fix, and it’s an area we
exercise the least and forget about with our
daily skincare routine.
Turkey neck is is the result of skin loosing
its elasticity and fat with advancing age or
through sudden weight gain or lose. While
there are some specially designed creams and
serums to target the neck area, lotions and
potions can only do so much. But fear not,
there is a step before you go to the extreme
lengths of cosmetic surgery. Advanced
skin treatments can help tighten the skin in
that area. Rosa Guthrie from The Cosmetic
Clinic says they have a fractional RF machine
which is a combination of needling and radio
frequency. “This is a treatment that involves
puncturing the epidermis (surface
layer of the skin) with hundreds of tiny
needles to cause ‘controlled trauma’ and
induce the collagen response. A numbing
cream is applied first, to reduce the
discomfort. The Radio Frequency (RF) heats
the tissue and stimulates collagen production.
This leads to the reduction of fine lines, large
pores and loose skin. Combining the two
techniques creates a much deeper and more
beneficial Collagen response than just dermal
needling alone. Less treatments are required
and results are generally much better. Great
for a neck that is starting to sag!”
It’s also important not to leave out the neck
from your facial beauty regime, after all it is an
extension of your face.
“The same care and attention needs to
be spread down the neck, and even further
down to the décolletage. Serums, sunscreen
and retinol all need to be spread across the

the world famous New
Filename: Zealand FG9681 Army Band is going
to perform at “The Piano”, 156
Armagh Street, Christchurch.
This is the first time that the
band has performed a concert
in Christchurch since the
successful 50th celebration
concert in 2014. New Zealand
Army Band Bandmaster
Warrant Officer Class Two
Phillip Johnston is thrilled to
be able to showcase the band’s
talents locally in Christchurch’s
latest performing arts venue
“The Piano”.
Warrant Officer
Johnston said
“the venue is
ideally suited for
a traditional brass
band concert and
it will be a great
afternoon of music
making”.
The NZArmy Band’s program
will be a trip down memory
lane as the programme features
classic brass band repertoire
such as Eric Ball’s Resurgam
and Kingdom Triumphant.
The band has six current New
Zealand solo champions and
will feature three of them
whole area. Often you see older woman with
beautiful youthful skin on their face, but look
further down to their neck, décolletage and
hands, this shows the real age. This is due to
those areas being forgotten and neglected.
Many of our clients ‘add on’ neck, décolletage
and hands to our skin microdermabrasion and
laser treatments.”
Short of wearing a roll-neck all year round,
there is also another non-surgical procedure
that you should be booking in for. This
treatment the ‘Nefertiti lift’.
“The name refers to the Egyptian princess
Nefertiti who was renowned for her long
elegant neck. The actual procedure itself,
consists of lots of little anti wrinkle
injections to the area, which relaxes the
platysmal muscles which are major depress
ors of the lower face. The results are a more
defined jawline and more youthful appearance.
Like the hands and under eye area, the neck
tends to give away our age. We use a series
of anti wrinkle injections into the platysmal
bands (neck lines) and the lines on the lower
part of the face. Lots of little injection sites
which are superficial so relatively painless.
When the anti wrinkle kicks in, the sites that
were injected, relax. Unlike traditional
treatments to the frown, forehead or crows,
which focus on reducing wrinkles, this
treatments focuses on changing facial
contouring with the use of an anti wrinkle
(neurmodulator).”
The neck is not the easiest of areas to treat,
but by using the right products and
treatments, you’ll be better equipped to turn
your neck from turkey back to spring chick.

As is appropriate with the
concert being so close to
ANZAC day, the band will also
feature Fernleaf Headstones
and Passchendaele.
Both of these pieces
were written for
the band by past
member, world
renowned composer
Dwayne Bloomfield.
Fernleaf Headstones
was written for
the repatriation of
the Unknown Warrior and
Passchendaele depicts the
tragic events of the Third Battle
of Ypres, which to this day is
still the most deadly day in New
Zealand’s wartime history. The
programme is rounded off with
a couple of classic hymns and
of course it would not be an

6 LAW/ MIND
ENDURING POWERS
OF ATTORNEY
WORDS FLEUR MCDONALD
As many of you will be aware in 1988, the
Protection of Personal and Property Rights
Act enabled you to appoint a person you trust
to manage your affairs under
Enduring Powers of Attorney (Enduring
Power(s)). What you may not be aware of is
that on 16 March 2017 changes were made to
the Act and its Regulations, which effect how
we make Enduring Powers and how these
documents operate.
• The Forms
The most obvious change is how the new
Enduring Powers look. From the 16 March
2017 Enduring Powers need to be made
using a prescribed form. The new forms
contain additional information in the hopes
that Donors (the person giving the power)
will have a better understanding of what
Enduring Powers do and the implications
of the documents for the Donor and their
Attorney(s).
• Witnessing Requirements on
Mutual Enduring Powers
Since changes made to Enduring Powers in
September 2008, there has been
considerable confusion and discussion over
the witnessing of mutual Enduring Powers
where a husband and wife are appointing
each other. Changes to the Act clarify this
position. Now where there is no more
than a negligible risk of a conflict of interest,
the same person can witness both Donors
execution of the documents.
Best practice and difficulties in quantifying
what might constitute no more than a
negligible risk may see your legal advisor
choosing to require that separate people
continue to witness each Donor’s signature.
• Consultation
Previously an Attorney acting under
AWAITING COPY

Filename: FG5448
Enduring Powers was required to consult with
the Donor and any other person the Donor
had specified in their Enduring Powers. The
obligation to consult has now been extended
to require an Attorney to consult with any
other Attorney under the particular
Enduring Power, along with any Attorney
appointed under another Enduring Power.
• Revoking the appointment of an Attorney
The new forms allow a Donor to revoke an
Attorneys appointment without revoking
the entire Enduring Power so long as there
is at least one other Attorney remaining.
• Revocation of the Enduring Powers
Enduring Powers can be revoked at any
time by a Donor giving notice to the
Attorney, whilst that Donor has capacity. If
the new Enduring Powers state that they
revoke earlier Enduring Powers,
revocation of the earlier Enduring Powers
may be effected by the Donor or someone
other than the Donor. This includes notice
being given at a later time in the event that
the Donor becomes mentally incapable.
Please note that if you have started new
Enduring Powers prior to 16 March 2017, but
you were unable to complete the documents,
they will no longer be valid and must be
redrafted in the new forms. If you and your
Attorney(s) executed your Enduring Powers
prior to 16 March 2017, the documents will
continue to be valid.
Enduring Powers of Attorney are very
important estate planning tools and we
recommend that everyone should have these
valuable documents in place, regardless of age
or circumstances.
When making a decision regarding your
Enduring Powers it is critical you seek legal
advice from a team who understand how your
decisions now may impact on you and your
legal requirements in later years. Please call
Fleur McDonald on 03 352 2293 to arrange
an appointment to discuss your situation.

The Pure Food Co concept was born as a
result of a terrible circumstance. Cancer of
the jaw made it impossible for one of the
founder’s loved ones to eat normal food. He
required a radically modified diet that was
safe to swallow which robbed him of the
enjoyment and independence of eating. The
team’s research revealed that for far too many
people in a similar predicament, the eating
experience consisted of consuming
unappealing purées, baby food or worse still
not consuming food at all. Sam and co
founders Maia and George decided to do
something about the situation and The Pure
Food Co turned into a genuine market
opportunity.
The hugely successful and expanding brand,
which now serves close to 25,000 meals each
month is in major hospitals, aged care
facilities and sold direct to peoples homes.
The meals are served as individual
components (meat, vegetables and carbs)
which all look and taste like the regular meal,
rather than combined into a single pureed
dish.
Category winners at the NZ Food Awards,
they started with a philosophy that if they
wouldn’t serve it to their grandparents or eat
it themselves, they would not provide it to
their customers.
“In developing the wide range of foods, we
looked to classics such as roast lamb, and
introduced modern favourites such as

disabilities and malnutrition.
“Eight percent of all peoplbe have some
form of eating disability requiring texture
modified foods - this percentage is greatly
increased in aged care where conditions such
as neck and throat problems, cancer
treatment and strokes all require a special
textured diet. The conventional puree food
or protein drink options are extremely limited
and do not encourage sustainable diets.”
Malnutrition is a major problem across all
residents in the aged care sector. “Studies
indicate that as many as 47% of people
entering aged care are already malnourished
and the majority of other residents have some
risk indicators. Our food is the best of real
foods and natural fortification to provide
clinical benefits. There is increasing evidence
from international studies that malnutrition
has a massive impact on many other factors
related to aged care i.e. weight management,
falls and incidents, ward care days, cognitive
condition, nursing support, well being and
quality of life and this has a major impact of

8 MOTORING
JUST THE CAT’S WHISKERS
My introduction to Jaguar’s new F-Pace sport utility vehicle
was a little out of the ordinary.
At first use I was driving at considerable speed on a slalom
course on one of the runways at the old Wigram Air Force
base.
It was part of an event titled the Jaguar Art of Performance
Tour which showcased various Jaguar models in a sporty
environment.
The F-Pace was well suited to the challenge, even against
its far sportier stablemates, the heritage for which we know
Jaguar was immediately evident.
The vehicle this evaluation focuses on is a little different to
the one I drove at Wigram, instead of being diesel-powered,
it has a 3-litre supercharged V6 engine. English car makers are
no strangers to the supercharging concept, they’ve been doing
it since Bentley in the 1930s, and Jaguar’s partner Land-Rover
have produced many Range Rover models with superchargers.
With that statement in mind, the F-Pace arrives here in six
variations with three engine options, the 2-litre four-cylinder
diesel as mentioned, a 3-litre V6 diesel and two supercharged
V6s depending on how much power you want to own –
250kW or 280kW.
The range spans from $95,000 to $130,000 for the rangetopper
as tested.
For that money you get a wealth of specification, all of the
items you would expect in a luxury car, and those fitting the
Jaguar brand are fitted to the F-Pace.
The concept of the F-Pace is different to that of any Jaguar
I’ve driven before. As a company Jaguar knew that it would

have to produce an SUV in order to stay competitive in
the global market, and the way it has done that is far from
traditional, the F-Pace S has style and design flair, it is far from
boxy, yet still offers the practicality we demand from SUVs,
along with providing stunning performance.
Against its V8 powered stablemates the F-Pace’s 2995cc
engine may seem a little underwhelming, but at 280kW and
450Nm it does have enormous get up and go. According to
Jaguar, the S will scamper to 100km/h from a standstill in
5.1sec, and it will lunge through a highway overtake in 3.8sec.
Jaguar also claim a 250km/h top speed.
Drive flows through an eight-speed automatic transmission.
It is a classy unit, with ratios and shift patterns well suited
to the strong boost of supercharged power. As you would
expect, there are sport shift protocols and an eco mode
for those inevitable times when you are caught up in traffic.
In eco mode there is gentle response to accelerator, which
under those circumstances is by far the best option.
For the Jaguar enthusiast who is familiar with the centre
console-mounted gear shift dial, it is there in the F-Pace.
Early January was a good time to be on the road evaluating
as there was little traffic and dry roads. I took the test car on
a long highway loop just east of the main divide on the scenic
route SH72.
The F-Pace cruises much like its high-profile stablemates, it
is quiet and takes on quite a sporty persona, unlike many of
the SUVs in today’s market. There is little indication of height
(1652mm), the centre of gravity seems low, body movement
over the suspension is controlled and balanced. The fully
independent system can be felt working, especially the rear

cultures, cuisines and landscapes, with a

linkages, but you would expect that from Jaguar; as a company
it builds vehicles that offer an involving driving experience.
The F-Pace has drive to all four wheels and it is an adaptive
system, sending power to the rear when grip is threatened. In
most cases the F-Pace would have a life on-road, it’s not an
actual off-roader as such, but with 213mm of ground
clearance it does have useful cross-country ability.
Providing the grip are huge Continental tyres (255/50 x
20in) which send strong information to the driver. On the
Wigram slalom course there was little indication of push at
the front or oversteer from the rear, steerage is direct and
turn-in strong and decisive.
The F-Pace in this form is also a frugal highway cruiser. The
engine is loping along slowly at just 1700rpm at 100km/h
sipping fuel at the rate of just 7.5-litre per 100km (38mpg).
Jaguar claim an 8.9l/100km (32mpg) combined cycle average
which sits well with the trip computer readout of 10l/100km
(28mpg) during my four days with the evaluation car.
Jaguar’s first foray into the sport utility vehicle market is a
result of many years of development, the F-Pace is a late entry
but you can guarantee it has been engineered so that it won’t
disappoint. You can certainly see that in its styling, it is a cross
between sporty and functionality, and as a Jaguar owner you
wouldn’t want anything less.
I enjoyed my time with the vehicle, I’d be torn between
petrol and diesel power and I hope to drive the latter at some
point. However, in the interim, I’m sold, if I was a luxury car
SUV buyer, it would be the top of my list.

SPECTACULAR: Cruising into one of the fiords on the Emerald Princess and passing by Bowen Falls.
Drifting through Fiordland
• By Mike Yardley
CRUISING through our
fiords had been lingering
on my wish-list for quite
some time.
I revere Fiordland and its
formidable terrain, which
produces its own weather
pattern, with an annual
rainfall index measured in
metres.
Recently, I boarded
Princess Cruises’ latest
liner to potter around our
coastline, Emerald Princess,
which is a novel way
to appreciate the beauty of
your own country.
Sailing overnight from
Port Chalmers, I awoke
early to grizzled misty
skies, as we entered the
remote, untouched reaches
of our biggest fiord, Dusky
Sound. Fortified with
freshly brewed coffee, I
ventured out on the promenade
deck, as we glided
by cinematic mountain
ranges, garlanded in wispy
long white clouds.
Fleetingly, a flash of frolicking
dolphins was lapped
up with palpable passenger
delight. In stark contrast to
the heavy swells rounding
the South Otago Coast,
the inky waters of Dusky
Sound were millpondsmooth,
as if the ship was
gliding on an ice rink.
To marvel at this masterpiece
of grand-scale nature
from the vantage point of
a cruise ship really is quite
breath-taking. Fiordland
boasts 14 fiords and after
Dusky, our next assignment
was the exalted grandeur
of Doubtful Sound.
Entering its snout, this
sky-piercing cathedral of
sheer granite walls feels
positively Jurassic, otherworldly
and all-consuming.
The live soundtrack of lofty
waterfalls cascading down
the sheep granite slopes
serenaded our arrival,
while lumbering fur seals
wallowed on rocks by the
entrance to the fiord.
The sheer, rugged landscape
of towering mountains,
clad in primeval
rainforest had me halfexpecting
a brachiosaurus
to shuffle into view.
The heroic dimensions
and the untouched beauty
of the fiord that makes
Doubtful such a profound
encounter. Later in the
day, the clouds cleared
and spectacular sunshine
bathed us in warmth, just
as we entered Fiordland’s
most famous poster-child,
Milford Sound.
The recent precipitation
turned on a giant waterworks
spectacle, with a
vast curtain of waterfalls
thundering down the rock
faces to the sea.
I spied the vein-like
patterning of Bowen Falls
turning on a splashy show,
beyond the ship’s stern.
On starboard side, the
backside of Mitre Peak,
thrust its majestic presence
towards the heavens – the
world’s tallest mountain to
rise directly from the sea.
The thick forests that
carpeted the mountains
took on an emerald hue
in the golden autumn sun.
But for all its wraparound
photogenic splendour,
it’s your relative sense of
insignificance that comes
into sharp relief, when
thrust into the bosom of
such ravishing, grand-scale
majesty.
I felt like a speck of life
in a landscape carved
for giants. And the
113,000 tonnes of the
15-storeyed Emerald
Princess was similarly
rendered comically small,
in the clutches of such
granite-walled grandeur.
Drifting through the
fiords, retired Department
of Conservation senior
ranger, Ian Thorne, was
our expert guide with a
treasure-chest of nuggets
to share with us, after
clocking up 35 years of
conservation work in
Fiordland.
Ian specialised in
biodiversity work with
endangered birds and
leading pest eradication
programmes. It was a thrill
to see Fiordland’s offshore
islands up-close, which are
veritable arks for our most
endangered species.
Richard Henry was
one of pioneering
conservationists,
transferring kakapo and
kiwi to islands in Dusky
Sound, over a century
ago. Many of the kakapo
call Anchor Island home,
which is predator free. Ian
has worked extensively on
its neighbour, Resolution
Island, eradicating stoats
in pursuit of predator-free
status, too.
Passing by Wet Jacket
Arm, Ian remarked that
this is where 10 Canadian
moose were let loose in
the forest, in 1910. In spite
of persistent rumours
of moose sightings, no
evidence has surfaced that
they’ve survived.
As we exited Dusky, we
drifted by another DOC
sanctuary, Breaksea Island,
which clocked up a worldfirst
for its successful rat
eradication programme.
For all of the stupidity
wrought by our forebears,
introducing pests to our
country, the tireless endeavours
to safeguard our
natural species in Fiordland’s
dedicated sanctuaries
is patriotically uplifting to
see.

Sound.
FAST FACTS
•Princess Cruises operates

Bowers Builders
Renovations and house levelling has
long been a speciality of Bowers Builders.
Their team of five builders has 90 years
of collective experience in the industry,
with owners Johnnie and Amanda directly
involved in the management of every
project.
“We will take on the jobs that are outside
the box – nothing is too hard,” say Amanda,
who meets all new clients with Johnnie to
talk over their specific building situation.
“Once we start work on the job our client’s
hardest decision should just be choosing the
paint colour.”
Clear and honest communication is
integral to their business, with all work
completed to a very high standard that will
last over time. From a new garage floor that
is complicated due to land conditions, an
almost complete renovation of an inner city
cottage, to demanding hill sites that require
helicopter access, Amanda and Johnnie
work together to come up with a realistic
solution for all involved.
They are well used to working with a
range of agencies and specialists such as
structural and geotechnical engineers, and
have reliable sub-contractors to complete
any electrical, plumbing, complex brick
work and roofing work.

things just take longer than others,” says
Amanda.

Fresh driveline for
Peugeot 2008
• By Ross Kiddie
I’M A firm believer in the
two-wheel-drive sport
utility vehicle market.
The reason being is that
most SUV buyers have no
intention of taking their
cars/wagons into a loose
surface environment, there
is mostly little need for
four-wheel-drive.
A lot of manufacturers
are into that concept and
they are increasing the
number of 2WD SUVs.
Peugeot has just launched a
new crossover/SUV/wagon
– the 2008. While its concept
has been around for
a few years, the newcomer
has a fresh driveline and a
fairly hefty upgrade.
Loosely based around
the 208 platform, the 2008
is an SUV of mini proportions
at just over 4m, but it
has a practical interior that
is capable of transporting
awkward loads with adaptable
and versatile rear seat
configurations.
It is also a comfortable
car for four adults, it’s a bit
of squeeze width-wise for
three adults in the rear but
there’s no shortage of head
or leg room, and the 2008
is clever in the way it translates
its limited space into
occupant comfort.
The 2008 lands here in
two levels, $34,990 will get
you into the Allure, an extra
$2000 will buy what Peugeot
describes as the GT-Line, it
gets a wealth of sporty trim
accents, bigger wheels (17in)
and a higher spec including
a clever grip control system.
Effectively, it is an advanced
traction and stability control
programme that also allows
the 2008 to tackle those offthe-seal
situations that arise
from time to time, but bearing
in mind cross-country
travel is limited.
Under the bonnet is a
new turbocharged, threecylinder
engine and sixspeed
transmission which
is finding its way across
Peugeot and Citroen lineups.
I’ve encountered
this unit in other Peugeot
product and it is an engine
which punches well above
its weight, you have to discard
the notion of it being
small, it is a strong, capable
PEUGEOT 2008: Sport utility vehicle of mini proportions.
power plant which thrills
with its honesty.
Peugeot rates the 1192cc
unit at a healthy 81kW and
205Nm. Not only are they
high outputs for engine
size, it’s the area where the
power is developed that
is most interesting. Peak
power comes in at just
5500rpm and maximum
torque is available from
1500rpm, both low in the
rev band and that is what
you need in all engines,
the ability to haul from low
revolutions. Boost from the
turbocharger is also constant,
there is little lag at
any point.
• Price – Peugeot
2008, $36,990
• Dimensions –
Length, 4159mm;
width, 1829mm;
height, 1556mm
• Configuration –
Three-cylinder, frontwheel-drive,

• Performance –
0-100km/h, 10.3sec
• Fuel usage –
4.8l/100km
If you also add in the
benefit of a six-speed
automatic, there’s never a
point where you think the
gearing and engine output
aren’t matched, the driveline
is fluid and responsive.
Peugeot also list a 1280kg
kerb weight for the 2008,
that’s quite light, offering
a healthy power-to-weight
ratio.
The gearing has been
structured so that there
is reasonable acceleration

higher grade variant of the Peugeot 2008.
a tallish top gear so that
the engine is relaxed at
100km/h, turning over
slowly at 2000rpm.
At that speed the engine
is sipping fuel at the rate of
just five-litres per 100km
(56mpg), that promoted a
7.2l/100km (39mpg) average
during my time behind
the wheel. These are satisfactory
figures but are a
little distant to Peugeot’s
4.8l/100km (58mpg)
combined cycle claim,
although my driving style
doesn’t augur well for fuel
economy.
On the subject of figures,
the 2008 is lively enough,
it will reach 100km/h from
a standstill in just over
10sec and will complete a
highway overtake in 6.9sec
(80km/h to 120km/h).
Peugeot has always had
a reputation for ride/handling
quality and that has
been engineered into the
2008. It has a compliant,
moderately-firmed ride
with a handling feel that
is moderately sporty. The
chassis isn’t disturbed by
mid-corner bumps or road
deviations, the suspension
does a good job of keeping
body balance.
Providing the grip are
205/50 Good Year tyres,
according to the casing they
are worded all season and
during my time with the
test car they were certainly
put to the test on wet surfaces,
heavy rain lowered
grip levels substantially.
Nevertheless, the entire
car felt secured to the
road and steering feel is
another Peugeot hallmark,
the 2008 as a package constantly
feels controlled and
safe.
The latter of course is
five-star rated and sits
beside a healthy level of
specification, major features
include satellite navigation,
touch screen infotainment,
cruise control
and speed limiter and high
quality trim materials.
The new 2008 is an
example of a good car
made better, the new driveline
is certainly a case of
less is more.

Why Ben Matulino is leaving the Warriors
• By Michael Burgess
FOR DEPARTING Warriors
prop Ben Matulino, the Ivan
Cleary factor was the single
biggest reason in his decision to
sign for West Tigers.
It was confirmed close to
midnight on Tuesday that
Matulino had agreed terms with
the Sydney club, after a week of
speculation about his future.
The Warriors statement emphasised
that Matulino wanted
to experience “living in Sydney
with his family” but the 28-yearold
confirmed that his close
relationship with Cleary sealed
the deal.
“I’ve always had a close bond
with [Cleary] and he was the
main drawcard for me,” Matulino
told Radio Sport on Tuesday
night.
“I know how he operates – seeing
what he has done with other
teams – and I was pretty keen to
get on board with that.”
Matulino also revealed that he
came extremely close to signing
for Penrith to rejoin Cleary a few
years ago, and obviously wasn’t
going to pass up another opportunity.
“A couple of years back he
almost got me to Penrith,” said
Matulino.
“I was a couple of days away
from signing there and I ended
up staying with the Warriors.
“[This decision was about]
linking up with my old coach
The Star
and testing myself in a different
environment. For me it was
about getting a fresh start –
starting from the bottom of the
pecking order and working my
way up.”
Cleary gave Matulino his
NRL debut at the Warriors in
2008, and three seasons later
Matulino was the cornerstone
of the Warriors pack that went
to the grand-final. He has had
patches of good form over the
last few seasons, but never really
recaptured his best under
the Warriors’ revolving cast of
coaches since 2012.
The news is another blow to
the Auckland club off the back of
Kieran Foran’s likely move to the
Bulldogs for the 2018 season.
Matulino managed 48 minutes
in Tuesday night’s 20-14 loss
to the Storm, his first match of
the season after a longer than
expected recovery from knee
surgery.

Following in Steven Adams’ footsteps
• By Gordon Findlater
ANGUS MCWILLIAM will
follow in the footsteps of Kiwi
NBA star Steven Adams when he
joins Texas Christian University
next year.
McWilliam, 17, has committed
to play at TCU under coach
Jamie Dixon, who was Adams’
head coach at the University of
Pittsburgh from 2012-2013.
“What Steven Adams is doing
is the goal for many of us,” said
McWilliam. “To know that a
coach I’m going to be playing for
helped him get to where he is,
that’s really cool to know.”
The 2.10m power forward
came to TCU’s attention during a
trip with the Mainland Eagles to
Las Vegas in December. TCU assistant
head coach David Patrick
was impressed with McWilliam
and invited him for an official
visit to the university in January,
where he met Dixon.
“They were just so welcoming
and made me feel part of the
family right from the get go. I was
pretty sold on it when I came back
from the visit,” said McWilliam.
Dixon was in Christchurch
earlier this month, where he
spent time with McWilliam’s
family and also held a coaching
seminar at Middleton Grange,
McWilliam’s high school.
After 13 years as head coach at
Pittsburgh, Dixon joined TCU
last year and led them to the NIT
championship, widely regarded
as the second biggest prize in
college basketball.
In July, McWilliam will
travel to Egypt with the Junior
Tall Blacks to compete at the
under-19 basketball World Cup.
After the World Cup, he will
finish his final year at Middleton
Grange, where he is deputy head
boy, and hopes to play for the
Canterbury Rams before making
the trip to Texas.

Christ’s play for
Moascar Cup
• By Gordon Findlater
THE OPENING round of the UC
Championship will see Christ’s
College challenge Nelson College
for the Moascar Cup, secondary
school rugby’s equivalent of the
Ranfurly Shield.
Christ’s will be coached by
former All Black captain Reuben
Thorne for a second season. Last
year, they finished at the top of
the round-robin before losing
to Shirley Boys’ High School in
a muddy semi-final. Nelson has
held the Moascar Cup since June.
Christchurch Boys’ High School
will be expected to brush aside
their opening clash of the season
when they host Waimea Combined.
St Thomas of Canterbury
College will host Burnside High
School. St Thomas will be boosted
by the services of former CBHS
player and Brisbane Broncos
recruit Jordan Riki.
Saturday fixtures (home team
first)
Nelson College v Christs; Roncalli
College v Marlborough Boys’

Enari thinking attack at under-20 rugby world champs
• By Campbell Burnes
THE NEW Zealand under-20s
are mindful of having a back up
plan to their attacking strategy
ahead of next month’s world
champs in Georgia.
Last year in England, New
Zealand clearly had the most
talented backs – such as Shaun
Stevenson and Jordie Barrett –
and ability to play high octane
rugby, but when the weather
turned and the refereeing and

opposition tactics were not conducive
to running rugby, they
did not handle the pressure, their
loss to Ireland leading to a lowly
fifth place finish.
“We’ve looked at our attack
structures and where we want
to attack. We’re hopeful about
the weather in Georgia and that
will play in our favour,” said New
Zealand coach Craig Philpott.
New Zealand will get to try
out some of those attacking
structures this Friday against

Fiji on the Gold Coast when the
Oceania under-20 championship
begins. There is still much to play
for among the 31 players, as the
final cull for Georgia will see 28
travelling to the world champs.
Canterbury halfback Ere Enari
is the vice-captain and has the
green light to control some of the
options.
“We haven’t quite got that far
yet (on tweaking the attack) but
the learnings from last year are
that we shouldn’t be too onedimensional
and be able to adapt
on the day,” said the 19-year-old.
He is one of four former St
Kentigern College first XV players
so Enari knows a bit about
high performance teams.
But things have not all been
plain sailing for Enari since he
left school, due to a 2015 broken
leg. But he did play for the 2015
New Zealand Universities side –
he is in his third year of a BCom
at Lincoln – before appearing in
nine games for the 2016 Mitre
10 Cup premiership champions
Canterbury.
Now he is on a Crusaders
training contract.
But before Georgia, he and the
team need to front in Australia.
In 2016, he came off the bench in
one Oceania game.
“It’ll be a bigger challenge this
time as we only get one crack at
Australia (May 6). We want to
perform in each test because it’ll
be quite a similar schedule to the
World Cup.” –NZ Herald

How to stay
warm and dry
Kiwi homes contain hidden health dangers. Yet first aid
for unhealthy homes needn’t cost a fortune. It can make a
home more saleable as well as a healthier place to live.
Many older homes are cold and
damp and sometimes have other
hazards such as lead-based paint and
asbestos.
There are a number of steps to take
to make your home more healthy.
They include behavioural change,
the cheapest way to make your home
healthier is to open windows to
ventilate.
If you’re out a lot, but want to
increase natural ventilation buy some
security window stays or locks that
allow you to leave windows slightly
open when you’re out. This can be a lot
cheaper to buy and run than high-tech
systems.
If nothing else, insulate the ceiling
and under the house. The Energy
Efficiency and Conservation Authority
(EECA) has information on its website
about funding grants available through
the Warm Up New Zealand campaign.
By 1 July 2019 all rental properties
must have ceiling and underfloor
insulation Ventilation systems move
moisture from the air making the
home healthier and feel warmer.
Adding a sheet of heavy polythene
beneath a home can provide an efficient
moisture barrier beneath piled homes.
A heat pump will warm and ventilate
rooms in the winter and cool them in
the summer. Watch out for hard sell in
this market though and shop around
before buying heating or ventilation
systems.
EECA suggests a number of different
options for secondary glazing, which
is cheaper than retrofitting double
glazing.
Alternatives include DIY window
insulation, aluminium framed
secondary glazing on the inside of
the existing glazing, or acrylic sheets
attached internally.

The latest technology is Low-E films,
which are stuck to existing windows.
This can reduce heat loss by 42 per cent
says Chris Olson, general manager of
ThermafilmNZ.
Healthy homes aren’t just about
insulation and moisture removal.
Using fewer toxic chemicals can
make your home healthier to live in.
Parents of young children sometimes
worry about exposure to chemicals as
do asthma sufferers. As a result some
buyers will also be impressed.
Dust mites can make a home
unhealthy to live in. Use a hepa filter
on your vacuum cleaner or at least
vacuum more often and empty the bag
between cleans.
Decluttering as well reduces the
places that dust can build up.
Mould spores can be very bad
for your lungs. If mould builds up
anywhere in your house clean it off as
soon as possible. If this is an ongoing
problem consider ways to reduce the
humidity.
If your home was built before the
1980s watch out for lead paint and
asbestos. Both should be removed by
an expert.

concerts for Starship Hospital,
has recently released her first single
‘Where Were You?’, and appeared at

Jayden Shingleton; Lanae & Bruce
Hill (Ashburton duo); with backing
by the well respected Sha-low band.
Also making a special appearance
will be Joining Forces, a Country/Pop
