Mischief-makers and great sportsmanship

• By Gordon Findlater

SUMNER RUNNING Club’s

Vajin Armstrong almost had

his run in the 62km race, at the

Tarawera Ultra Marathon, end

in disaster after being duped by

mischief-makers.

Armstrong won the race in

a time of 5hr 36min. However,

his time should have been much

faster. With just over 2km left to

run he had a lead of approximately

5min. The 37-year-old then

took a wrong turn in Rotorua

because arrows and flagging on

one intersection of the course had

purposely been shifted.

“I ended up in an archery

range. There was actually a competition

going on and I soon realised

this didn’t look like where

the course should be going,” said

Armstrong. •Turn to page 19

Residents

to tackle

council over

rubbish

collection

concerns

• By Sarla Donovan

RESIDENTS concerned with the

maintenance of Sumner’s public

spaces, including overflowing

rubbish bins, will meet with city

council staff tomorrow.

It comes after a public meeting

last week, where a group of 30

Sumner residents met to discuss

how to resolve long-standing concerns,

particularly about rubbish

collection.

Representatives from the Sumner

Community Residents’ Association,

Sumner Adopt-a-Patch

project, Sumner Business Group

and Esplanade Gardening Group

presented at the meeting.

The residents’ association

will raise its issues of concern

tomorrow at a meeting with

city council staff and Linwood-

Central-Heathcote Community

Board member Darrell Latham.

They include what penalties

might be levied on contractors

who fail to empty rubbish bins

as scheduled; the frequency of

bin emptying throughout 2018;

maintenance of public gardens

and lawns, and whether the

Adopt-a-Patch project can work

with the city council to improve

public places.

NOT A bad sports yarn on the front page

today.

Vajin Armstrong won the Tarawera Ultra

Marathon at the weekend but it was full of

drama and great sportsmanship.

Armstrong led by 5min with 2km to go when he took a wrong

turn, courtesy of someone who had mischievously changed

the course signs. He had to backtrack to the course, where

he bumped into his good mate and training partner, Chris

Dunnell, who had been a distant second.

They ran the last 2km together and in a piece of

sportsmanship, or commonsense, when they got to the home

straight he told Armstrong the race was his on the basis he had

been well ahead when the wrong turn was taken.

Great stuff.

Van Asch move not ruled out

• By Sarla Donovan

THE BOARD of Sumner’s van

Asch Deaf Education Centre is

refusing to rule out a relocation

and subsequent land sale.

The combined van Asch and

Kelston Deaf Education Centre

board of trustees chairwoman

Rachel Douglas said since 2012,

the board had been

considering the

“long-term future

location” of the

van Asch operation.

Rachel

Douglas

However, that

process was currently

on hold

while the board

“explores its new strategic

goals,” Ms Douglas told Bay

Harbour News.

There are currently 11 students

in residence at van Asch’s

Truro St campus in Sumner.

Parents and caregivers were sent

a letter on January 22 outlining

seven goals developed at the end

of last year.

They included “an exciting

new development which is the

board’s intention to create one

new organisational structure to

deliver a more efficient service

nationwide. Having a national

structure will allow us to make

the best use of our buildings and

properties.” Asked whether the

relocation of the van Asch centre

was being considered as part

of that, Ms Douglas said she did

not know at this stage.

“We only have questions, not

answers, at the moment on that.

I can’t rule anything in or out

at. I’m not even trying to hide

anything.”

“At the moment, we are looking

at the service delivery and

then we’ll look at the property to

go with it. So it’s to be based on

the children’s needs first.”

The board was looking at one

new national structure. “We

to look yet and we don’t want

to pre-empt that because we’re

working through that over the

next 12 months.”

There had been and would

continue to be extensive consultation,

said Ms Douglas. She

emphasised the board did not

have a preferred location. “Our

preference is to focus on the

needs of the children and work

from there.”

Ministry of Education deputy

secretary sector enablement and

support Katrina Casey said no

decisions had been made on the

van Asch school site.

“Discussions with the board

include exploring potential sites

for the core school services,

satellite and resource hubs, and

are ongoing.”

Van Asch principal Bernie

Mulcahy-Bouwman would

not comment on whether a

relocation was being considered,

referring Bay Harbour News to

Ms Douglas.

Port Hills MP Ruth Dyson

said it would be premature to

speculate.

SCHOOL ROUTE STOPPED

Students travelling to Linwood

College along the Sumner route

will now have to catch the Purple

Line after Red Bus discontinued

its daily school bus service. The

company told the college last week

that the service had been halted

due to low patronage.

NEW BUS SHELTER

There will be a new shelter

installed at the bus stop opposite

Countdown Ferrymead after

the Linwood-Central-Heathcote

Community Board gave it the

go-ahead. The current stop at

1008 Ferry Rd does not provide

The city council has agreed to

install one at a cost of $48,000,

which may come down to $36,000

BE IN TO

FINISHED: The new catch bench sits between Sumner Rd and the Crater Rim

Bluffs and is designed to stop falling rocks landing on the road.

Catch bench work completed

WORK HAS been

completed on the catch

bench that has been built

to reduce the risk of falling

rocks bouncing onto

Sumner Rd.

The completion of the

bench excavation is a significant

milestone it marks

the end of stage one of the

multimillion-dollar project

to get Sumner Rd reopened

to the public.

The new catch bench sits

between Sumner Rd and

the Crater Rim Bluffs and

is literally designed to catch

falling rocks before they

land on the road.

“Contractors McConnell

Dowell and their subcontractors

have excavated

about 100,000 cu m of

rock from the slope above

Sumner Rd to create the

catch bench. It stretches

for a length of about 400m

and is 15m wide and 18m

high,’’ said city council

senior project manager

Peter Bawden.

It has taken eight months

to build the catch bench,

which is one of a number

of rockfall protection

measures created along the

route.

“If we get another earthquake,

the intention is that

rocks that come tumbling

down from the bluffs will

land in the catch bench

rather than on the road,’’

Mr Bawden said.

Most of the rock excavated

from the catch bench

has been stockpiled at the

Gollans Bay Quarry. Over

the coming months some

of it will be used in other

city council projects.

The next stages involves

repairing and reinforcing

the retaining walls below

Sumner Rd and rebuilding

the road itself. As well as

finishing drainage works

and tidying up the Gollans

Bay Quarry area.

Sub-contractors are

starting to work on repairing

a 100m retaining wall

below Sumner Rd, at its

intersection with Reserve

Tce.

The work involves

drilling anchors into

the bedrock behind the

existing wall and installing

new reinforced shotcrete

concrete facing.

Procurement of the

remaining retain walls

packages and pavement

repairs is under way

and the target is to

have Sumner Rd open in

early to mid 2019.

Author searches for jetty stories

Fire rages, homes at risk

• By Sarla Donovan

GOVERNORS BAY author Jane

Robertson wants to uncover

the stories behind Lyttelton

Harbour’s lost jetties.

While writing her 2016 book

Head of the Harbour: A history

of Governors Bay, Ōhinetahi,

Allandale and Teddington, Ms

Robertson found the section on

jetties particularly intriguing,

prompting her to start a blog

about them.

She is exploring where they

were located, how they were

used and what happened to

them.

A blog was a natural choice

because it meant she could do

things in small chunks, focusing

on one jetty at a time.

“It gives me an organising

framework. I was also keen to get

other people involved – giving

feedback, making comments;

adding their understanding and

knowledge to what I was writing.”

There is only one ‘intact’

jetty at the head of Lyttelton

Harbour, where once there were

at least seven, said Ms Robertson.

“Before reasonable road

transport – or any roads at

all – the sea was a highway on

which Maori and early European

settlers depended. A jetty

marked the point of transition

between sea and land. It also

denoted settlement, a degree of

permanence.”

However, as is now evident,

jetties are “anything but

permanent,” with Governors

Bay jetty the only one that

remains.

There are remnants of abandoned,

decaying jetties scattered

around the harbour.

“Many more have long been

swallowed by the sea,” Ms Roberston

said.

A lot of the early jetties in

places like Charteris Bay, Purau,

Cass Bay and Camp Bay, were

built privately so residents could

get produce to market (primarily

to Lyttelton.)

“Most of the bays at some

point got public jetties built by

the provincial government and

they were also for transporting

produce but also for recreation;

steamers used to ply the harbour

bringing people up to any of

the bays to have a picnic. People

still do that, but basically only

to Quail Island and Diamond

Harbour.”

HISTORY: Jane Robertson wants to uncover stories behind

Lyttelton Harbour’s lost jetties. The original jetty at Governors

Bay (above) was dismantled in 1938 after a boy fishing from it

fell and drowned.

The Wildside Project is a large scale collaboration

of landowners, Christchurch City Council,

Department of Conservation, Environment

Canterbury, and BPCT for the protection of a

variety of endemic, threatened, and iconic species

such as the endemic white-flippered little blue

penguin, the only titi (sooty shearwater) colony

in Canterbury, and yellow-eyed penguin at their

northern breeding range. jewelled gecko, spotted

skink, the Banks Peninsula tree weta and Akaroa daisy (both

found only on the Wildside). The Wildside covers 13,500ha and

focuses on habitat protection, with 25% of the Wildside held in

private or public reserve, and predator control, with over 700

predator traps controlling feral cats, ferrets, stoats, weasels,

and possums used in this extensive trapping programme.

The Tui Project

The Banks Peninsula Tui Restoration group translocated a

total of 72 tui from Maud Island, Marlborough Sounds to

Hinewai Reserve, Banks Peninsula in 2009 and 2010. This

NatureWatchNZ project has been set up to capture the many

observations of tui contributed by people all over Banks

Peninsula and Christchurch since the first release. The vast

majority of observations in the project are made by a small

team of volunteers, who have spent thousands of hours

observing, recording and managing this information over the

last nine years.

Trust’s bid to hook

$500k jetty grant

• By Sarla Donovan

A FUNDRAISING campaign to

repair the earthquake-damaged

Governors Bay jetty is going full

steam ahead.

The Governors Bay Jetty

Restoration Trust will put in

an application to the Lotteries

Commission on Monday

for $500,000.

But first it has to

get 10 more planks

sponsored. It needs to

raise a third of the cost

so the commission can

be sure the project will

happen.

The plank sponsorship

drive was helped

recently by trust secretary

Louisa Eades. Her story

about the campaign and her own

involvement was featured in a

women’s magazine.

Ms Eades said her friends

and colleagues were excited.

“In terms of an increase in

donations, I wasn’t sure what to

expect. My guesses ranged from

fizzer to huge success.”

In the two weeks since the

article hit news stands, several

plank sponsors and other donors

have come out of the woodwork,

along with new members including

some from the North Island.

“And the New Zealand Women’s

Weekly has donated $500 to

sponsor their own plank,” said

Ms Eades.

Donors of $500 or more will

have their name etched on a

plaque in the new jetty.

Since fundraising

started at the end of last

year, the trust has raised

or secured $670,802,

including a contribution

from the city council.

Ms Eades had been

“blown away” by the support

and encouragement

Louisa Eades received in that time.

“The campaign has got

off to a fantastic start and is really

picking up momentum, with

some exciting events planned for

this year.”

An exhibition and art auction

is planned for Saturday, June 2,

at the Governors Bay Hotel with

items donated by leading local

artists.

Last year the city council

agreed to temporarily sell ownership

of the jetty for $1 to the

trust. The restoration is expected

to cost up to $3 million, with

work set to start next year.

A NEW footpath alongside Moa

Bone Cave is a step closer, with

plans being released last week.

The pathway has been out of

action since the February 22,

2011, earthquake rendered it

unusable.

Following pressure from

residents and Redcliffs School

parents, the city council agreed

to reinstate the footpath.

An area at risk of residual

rockfall was fenced off and

extensive risk remediation work

completed.

Now a plan for a new footpath

beside the fence is out for public

feedback, and

the city council

expects to

install it next

month.

Redcliffs Residents

Association

secretary

Pat McIntosh

said it was “delighted”

at news

the footpath was to be restored.

“We are sure local residents

will be very relieved at having

access once more along this side

of the road.”

Heathcote Ward city councillor

Sara Templeton said it was

great to see progress on the issue.

“I’d like to encourage local

residents to get involved and let

the (Linwood-Central-Heathcote)

community board know

what they think of the plans.”

Having the ability to walk

safely around the corner from

Balmoral Hill and McCormacks

Bay to Redcliffs was vital for

children, she said.

“Simply scaling and fencing

of the rockfall areas and asking

them to cross at the busy Main

Rd corner in rush hour wasn’t an

option.”

Dr McIntosh said the footpath

would address safety concerns by

reducing the need to cross Main

Teen to ride in US horse competition

SALLY MCPHERSON loves all

things equine.

Now the 17-year-old from

Akaroa has been named in

the New Zealand Team for the

American Quarter Horse Youth

World Cup in Bryan, Texas.

But don’t get it confused with

rodeo.

Think dressage with a western

twist, that’s american quarter

horse, Sally said.

“It’s not rodeo. “It’s very

precise and technical. But it’s

also very colourful and sparkly

unlike the more demure

dressage,” she said.

Sally said there’s a fair bit of

bling involved in the outfits

which are quite heavy from all

the rhinestones.

“Some jackets and tops can

cost tens of thousands of dollars.

Many are specially made for the

competitor and the horses are

also bedazzled,” she said.

Sally and her team will head

to the United States in June to

compete for medals in cutting,

reining, horsemanship, ranch

riding, trail, western riding,

hunt seat equitation, hunter

under saddle and showmanship.

She will have a horse provided

by the organisers.

She’s the only Christchurch

member of the youth team and

Sally said it’s the realisation of a

goal she set herself many years

ago.

“I have been working towards

this for a long time,” she said.

“My aim is to learn as much

as I can and be proud of my

achievements. It’ll be the

best experience and biggest

opportunity yet, to meet others

and compete on the international

stage.”

Sally grew up in a family who

all love horses. Her parents, Ian

and Lindsey are president and

secretary of the Christchurch

Western Riding Association in

Mandeville.

Mr McPherson said he and his

wife have supported Sally every

step of the way in what’s been

a huge commitment over the

years.

“She puts in a massive amount

of work, attending national

competitions in the North Island

and the New Zealand Youth

times a year for two years,” he

said.

Mr McPherson said he is

excited and proud to see

Sally have the opportunity to

compete in the United States

competition, representing New

Zealand alongside 19 other

countries.

Sally will leave for Texas on

June 22. The opening ceremony

for the event will take place

at the Brazos County Expo

Complex on June 29.

Consent for

pathway

on hold

• By Sarla Donovan

Fire rages, homes at risk

THE CONSENT application

for the next section of the

Christchurch Coastal Pathway is

on hold.

It was lodged in December last

year but ECan has given the city

council until Friday to provide

additional information about the

potential effects on coastal processes,

coastal water quality and

ecology, natural character and

landscapes.

They have also asked for further

information on the potential effects

of dewatering and potential

reclamation as a result of the

proposal.

ECan will then decide whether

any parts of the consent application

will be publically notified.

The 760m section from Shag

Rock to the Sumner Surf Life

Saving Club is jointly funded by

the city council and the Coastal

Pathway Group and is expected to

take 12 months to build.

The expected start date is April

this year, however, council manager

planning and delivery transport

Lynette Ellis has said the

start date would be conditional

on any “additional requirements”

identified during the consenting

process.

Adam Hutchinson

Our People

Explaining the dangers of rips on

Tech wizard Adam

Hutchinson invents travel

apps but in his spare

time, he makes short

documentaries. His most

recent has been shared

more than 900 times in

10 days. It explains the

dangers of three rips

that exist in Sumner

and Scarborough when

there’s a swell. He

talks to reporter Sarla

Donovan.

What prompted you make

this documentary about the

rips in Sumner?

I occasionally hear the coastguard

siren go off and recently

it’s been going off more than

usual. I don’t understand much

myself about the rips in Sumner

and speaking to a couple of

friends they felt the same. So I

thought community-wide there

was maybe a lack of awareness

and this was a way to provide

information easily. Documentary

making is a project that I do

on the side, a hobby I guess. My

background is actually in IT. I

developed an app in 2011 called

CamperMate, which turned into

a network of GPS enabled apps

called GeoZone collecting GPS

data on tourism flows which I

sold to Tourism Holdings in 2015

and now work for the company

from out here in Sumner.

You must have been gutted to

see a 14-year-old was lost in one

of those rips just last week.

Absolutely, really terrible

circumstances. It really took

the danger up another level. For

me personally my experience in

rips has not been life threatening.

Every person that I know

who’s been caught in a rip has,

thankfully, been rescued and

it was very sad because it really

escalated the threat in terms of

how severe the consequences can

actually be. It’s not only awful

for the family but just highlights

the risk again. It’s super sad all

round.

I was surprised watching the

documentary to hear Sumner/

Scarborough could be so dangerous

– I usually think

of Piha and places like that on

the Auckland’s west coast.

Were you surprised?

I sort of was in all honesty. I

knew it was dangerous but again

it wasn’t on the scale of Piha in

terms of just how dangerous it

could be. Put it this way, after

the terrible incident last week

it’s really escalated the threat or

the danger and bought home the

potential consequences of being

in a rip.

Do you think there’s enough

information provided about the

rips along Sumner and Scarborough

beach?

We could do with better signage

to help people understand

the dangers of the rips. We’re

in a fairly unique position in

the fact that the rips in Sumner

don’t change, meaning that the

information we can provide on

the signs can be fairly detailed to

help people understand exactly

where they are in Sumner, as opposed

to generic rip information.

Could you tell me a bit about

your family?

I live up on Heberden Ave, I

bought up there recently and just

love it, love the neighbours and

the community. In my house

there’s my son Max, puppy Nash

and myself. I have a shared office

space above Stoked surf shop.

We’ve got nine people working

there.

I worked in a butcher shop in

came to study at Lincoln University

for four years before staying on in

Christchurch.

What were you doing in

Norway?

Just travelling around snowboarding

and met a girl and

ended up staying there for about

two-and-a-half years. That was

a pretty cool experience. Working

at the butcher’s shop was

amazing; it was in a place called

Stavanger which is where the

fjords are and in the fjords they

didn’t have access to fresh meat

so there were a lot of traditional

Norwegian recipes that involved

salting and preserving meat. It

was quite interesting being the

only foreigner who’d worked in

this butcher shop for 175 years

and learning some of these traditional

Norwegian salting recipes.

And what do you get up to in

your spare time?

I like fishing, I go spear fishing

up in Kaikoura quite a lot; some

hunting, diving and surfing that’s

pretty much it. I love to get my

hands dirty.

If there was one thing you

would change about Sumner

what would it be?

That’s a tough one. Perhaps in

an ideal world Bohemian Bakery

For Port Hills

Korako, it

is the little

things that

count when

it comes to

romance

TODAY IS Valentine’s Day

– a day of romance – and

while it may be a little over

commercialised, nonetheless

it is a good excuse to spend

special time with the one you

love and cherish.

For me especially it is 28

years since I met my wife,

Chris, on the Grand Canal

in Venice. I proposed and we

married that same year at

Rapaki.

Over the last few weeks, I

have taken advantage of the

hot weather to be out and

about experiencing some

of the great SummerTimes

festival which the city council

facilitates.

I have particularly enjoyed

the Lyttelton Summerfest

film evenings and am looking

forward to walking the

City2Surf on March 18 with

my family and I hope to see

you along the course.

If you have yourself, or

known someone who has

participated in the Kathmandu

Coast to Coast you will

appreciate the time and effort

that goes into training for this

iconic event.

I have done it twice and

I can honestly say that it is

gruelling, painful and worth

every minute. Congratulations

to everyone who crossed the

finish line at New Brighton

beach or participated at the

weekend.

We are fortunate to have so

many great events and open

spaces in our city and within

the Port Hills.

I think we have the best

beaches, great parks, walkways

ideal for humans and animals

alike, cycleways, cafes,

restaurants, shopping,

weekly markets with

local fresh produce,

exercise facilities, and

some beautiful gardens

to enjoy.

To add to that there

are four sites identified

for a new skate park

in the Ferrymead and

Sumner area and the

city council is asking

for your feedback.

Also there are two

developments that will

add to new Lyttelton

landmarks, one being

Collett’s Corner, which

is progressing thanks

to Ohu Development

which is working with

the community to

create a building that

will be collectively

owned by the

community. And the Lyttelton

Museum site on London St

which is progressing through

the concept design.

Whatever you do this

Valentine’s Day, if there’s one

thing I’ve learnt over the last

28 years, it’s the little things,

the thoughtful things that

count the most.

Enjoy your day.

Hungerford, Henderson

take out Billabong titles

Estella Hungerford and Ava

the Billabong Grom Series in

Whangamata at the weekend.

Hungerford, 15, claimed her

However, an

final secured her the title. She

of Ariana Shewry (7.8),

Wederell (4.1) in the final.

Henderson, 12, continued

her good run of form this year

claiming the under-14 girls division

against Piha’s Liv Haysom

third ahead of Australia’s Carol

Conditions were far from ideal

but New Zealand’s top junior

surfers battled it out across eight

divisions to secure titles.

He then backtracked to the

misguiding intersection and

arrived at the same time as

eventual runner-up Chris Dunell

from St Martins.

“He was about to head the

wrong way so I stopped him

and we changed the marking,”

Armstrong said.

You could say, somewhat

luckily for Armstrong, the

man that had now caught him

was a good friend and also his

regular training partner. The

pair completed the last 2km

together before sportsmanship

dictated the 17sec winning

margin.

“Chris being the honourable

fellow he is told me I was well

ahead,” Armstrong said.

“He certainly didn’t kick as

hard as he could have and let

me run away down the home

straight.”

Luckily Armstrong was the

only runner affected by the act

of tomfoolery. Although it added

at least a handful of minutes to

his winning time, he’s remained

upbeat about the interesting

finish to the race.

“It’s an awesome group of

people who do these sorts of

SPORTS

Mischief-makers and

great sportsmanship

events and there’s a real sense of

camaraderie, so that overcomes

anything like this.”

This was Armstrong’s seventh

time competing at the ultra

marathon. However, it was

the first win at the event. On

all previous six occasions he

competed in the 102km race

where he has been on the podium

on four occasions.

The weather in Rotorua also

threw a spanner into the works

for competitors. Persistent rain

in the two days leading up to the

event and on race day meant that

runners had to be conscious of

footing throughout muddy areas

on the trail run.

It was also a busy weekend for

other Sumner Running Club

members competing in two

major South Island events.

In the Coast to Coast

mountain run on Friday, Nathan

Jones came third overall in 3hr

34min.

At the Buller Marathon Lisa

Brignull finished second in

the women’s field in a time of

3hr 12min. Meanwhile, Danny

Carmine, who was running in

just his second full marathon,

finished seventh overall in

57min.

REAL ESTATE

Luxury architect designed sanctuary - ‘As is, where is’

21 Koromiko Crescent, Diamond Harbour

Auction: 22 February 2018, no prior sale

Brilliantly designed by Andrew Barclay

with expansive glass to capture the natural

light and sunshine, this property is unique

in its panoramic and extensive views of

Lyttelton Harbour, the Heads and the

surrounding vista.

Front row seats to the stunning sunrises

are just part of the pleasure that can be

derived from living in this wonderful

3-bedroom, 2-bathroom property and with

a nature reserve positioned in front, it can

never be built out. Upstairs there is a private

and sheltered deck from the living area and

the main bedroom...for outdoor BBQ’s or

just relaxing and soaking up the atmosphere.

Inside the house, the modern kitchen is

slightly elevated above the open plan living -

dining so the chef always has a commanding

view. The main bedroom upstairs is a

sanctuary with its own ensuite and walk-in

wardrobe...with two additional bedrooms

downstairs opening out onto a private lawn

and garden.

There is an extra-large double garage for

all the vehicles and lifestyle toys you may

have. Outside, the established gardens are

full of easy-care trees and scrubs and there is

flat lawn to enjoy in the privacy of the front

of the property.

While the luxury passenger liners are

soon to make a reappearance, the Diamond

Harbour - Lyttelton ferries are constant

passer bys (20 times a day) providing quick

and scenic transport to Lyttelton.

Enjoy the outdoor lifestyle and amenities

the area has to offer with the Charteris Bay

Golf Club a short 5-minutes’ drive away,

cycling, tennis, yachting, numerous walks,

Orton Bradley Park, Church Bay, Purau

Beach...and of course the cafes, restaurants

and the new Supermarket.
