Brewing beer in the old bank
• By Sarla Donovan
THE FORMER BNZ building
in Lyttelton will reopen its doors
in April – dealing not in bank
notes, but beer.
Eruption Brewing owners
Shaun Crossan and Steven Leftly
have been working for two years
to transform the old bank into a
rustic brewery pub.
Although the original concrete
panels are still visible, the addition
of wooden decks and
structures have given more of an
unpolished, industrial feel, venue
manager Brendan Hyndman
said.
Since it started in 2013, Eruption
Brewing has been operating
out of Woolston.
But the first batch was put
down at the new premises in
October last year. Mr Hyndman
said the last time beer had been
brewed on London St was 150
years ago.
The venue won’t fully open to
the public until April “if the stars
align.”
There had been “a few hiccups”
with the renovation, Mr
Hyndman said. “Just a lot more
concrete to make it comply with
EQC regulations.”

SUMNER SKATE ramp users
are causing a headache for
motorists.
Young skateboarders running
across Wakefield Ave to use the
ramp are prompting fears of an
accident waiting to happen.
A planned lower speed limit of
30km/h within the village may
be fast-tracked as a short term
measure, Heathcote Ward city
councillor Sara Templeton said
yesterday.
And a longer-term solution –
shifting the pedestrian crossing
further south along Wakefield
Ave – is planned for mid-year.
Sumner resident Janet
Sirisomphone was travelling
north along Wakefield Ave on
Sunday morning when she had
to slam on the brakes after a
child dashed across to get to
the ramp rather than use the
pedestrian crossing further
down the street.

THE SUMNER skate ramp appears to be a
great success. But with it has come the odd
problem.
We highlight on page 1 today concerns
skate boarders are whistling across
Nayland and Wakefield to get to and from the ramp.
There’s been a near miss apparently. Probably others have
gone unreported. There is a plan down the track to shift the
pedestrian crossing closer to the skate ramp. There’s merit in
that.
The main drag through the retail area will also become a
30km/h zone in time to come – and that is a very good move.
But in spite of these measures, young skate boarders will still
cut across the road.
Motorists will just have to be vigilant.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Rats on the rise in Sumner as
cooler weather approaches
• By Sarla Donovan
MORE RATS are being trapped
in Sumner as autumn arrives.
Predator Free Sumner coordinator
Gabe Ross said they
were starting to “haul them in,”
with 23 caught in February.
“The animals start to look
for new sources of food, as the
weather cools and the autumn
bounty starts to disappear.”
Esplanade resident Phil
Loughnan has single-handedly
SWEET TOOTH: This rat
couldn’t resist the bait –
Whittaker’s peanut chocolate.
nabbed 13 rats at or near his
home at the western end of
Scarborough Beach.
There were also five hedgehogs
caught in February.
It brings the total catch to 117
since the programme started in
October.
Mr Ross said while the numbers
might not seem that high
– there are 178 traps in the area –
“we are dealing with varying levels
of enthusiasm and expertise
in both trapping and reporting,
so it is a good start.”
Predator Free Sumner last year
received a Kiwibank grant to
subsidise 140 traps in the greater
Sumner area, from Clifton Hill
to Taylors Mistake.
Co-ordinator Gabe Ross said
the uptake in the community
had been excellent.
But educating people about
keeping traps set all the time,
how best to keep them baited
and what baits to use was ongoing,
he said.
“It’s a learning process we’re all
going through.”
Trap numbers would have
to increase if Sumner was to
become predator free.
PREDATORS: A ‘heatmap’ of catches since October – the red
spots indicate areas where a lot of pests have been caught.
He estimated a fifth of households
would need to be actively
trapping.
“We’re well below that at present.
If we were just to cover the
valley floor, it would take about
300 rat traps, evenly spaced. That
would be a pretty great start.”
The group is looking at funding
and sponsorship opportunities to
increase their trap stocks.
They were also looking at
holding a ‘build-your-own-trap’
workshop.
In the meantime, Mr Ross
said people can get in touch for
advice and information:

Council seeks future use for Banks
• By Sarla Donovan
IDEAS ARE being sought for
the future use of four heritage
buildings on Banks Peninsula.
They are the Lyttelton Borough
Council stables in Lyttelton; Yew
Cottage in Akaroa; the Little
River Coronation Library and
Kukupa Hostel in Pigeon Bay.
Individuals, groups and
organisations interested in using
or helping to fund the buildings’
restoration have until March
29 to submit ideas to the city
council.
Most sustained damage in the
September 2010, and February
2011, Canterbury earthquakes
and are yet to be repaired.
“Unfortunately, we don’t have
enough money right now to
repair all our heritage buildings
within the next few years, so
we need to prioritise how these
funds should be spent,’’ city
council acting head of parks
Brent Smith said.
Lyttelton resident and former
property manager at The
Tannery, Ian Knewstubb, said
the former stables should be
retained and eventually restored,
in spite of the cost.
“My oath – there’s so little left.
They don’t have to happen that
fast. The main thing is to hold on
to them.”
He said the building should
be made weather-tight and a
working party should be set up.
“In Italy, they just make sure
nothing happens to the (old)
buildings. If it takes 10, 20,
30, 40 years – that’s what it
takes. The major thing is to
hold on to them and establish
a working party to look at how
to maintain them as they are,
how to fund raise, and also to
establish what purpose they
should be put to.”
The stables were built in
1914 for councillors to lodge
their steeds; the horses were
replaced by motor vehicles
in 1939.
Estimates put the cost of
restoration at around $2.2
million.
AT LEAST $750,000 TO RESTORE: The Little River Coronation Library building sits in the Awa-Iti
Domain near the War Memorial Gates.
‘Water and Light’, it’s all around us and nowhere
more so than on the Banks Peninsula.
As small outcrop of volcanic rock jutting out into
the Southern Ocean we are surrounded on all
sides, and nowhere
is that interplay
between water and
light more evident.
The Little River
Gallery is proud to
host Philip Beadle’s
latest work, inspired
by the landscapes
of the Plains and
Peninsula.
Using a mixture of oil, watercolour, drypoint
and monotype, Philip’s work is as varied as the
landscapes he depicts.
Christchurch based Philip Beadle, whether
working with the human form or drawing
inspiration from the low sun on water agitated
by wind, uses the Canterbury environment to
inform his work.
Warm and inviting, cold and forgiving, water
and light are constant but also forever changing.
‘Water and Light’ is showing at
Little River Gallery from 10th March
to 4th April.
LANDMARK: Yew Cottage is known by Akaroa locals as Jeannie’s
Cottage in honour of long-term resident Jeannie Wendelborn.

Peninsula heritage buildings
The Little River Coronation
Library building has an estimated
minimum restoration cost
of $750,000 – however, this
figure is based on preliminary
investigations rather than
engineering costs, according to a
city council report.
The library was built to mark
the coronation of King George
V. It was opened in 1913, and it
remained in use as a library until
2000.
The former Kukupa School
building in Pigeon Bay – which
is a listed Heritage New Zealand
building – operated from 1878
until 1949. In 1951 it opened as
the Youth Hostel Association’s
first stand-alone hostel in New
Zealand.
Akaroa’s Yew Cottage is another
well-known landmark in need
of restoration. Built of locally
milled timber in 1877, it provides
a record of the lifestyle of early
colonial settlers.
Both properties are estimated
to cost around $250,000 each to
restore.
The city council said it welcomed
all “workable” proposals, including
those from commercial businesses,
community groups or charitable
trusts.

register your interest, visit www.
ccc.govt.nz/heritagebuildings
HISTORIC: The former
Lyttelton Borough Council
stables were converted to
garages in 1939, the year
horses were replaced by
motor vehicles (right). In 1951
the Youth Hostel Association
opened its first ever standalone
hostel in the former
Kukupa School, Pigeon Bay.
The hostel remained open for
40 years (below).

In the meantime, Eruption
Brewing has a special licence to
open from 9am-1pm on Saturday
mornings while the Lyttelton
Market is in full swing.
On its first Saturday, the brewery
sold 90 cups of coffee and 20
litres of beer.
“It was a really, really good feel
from the heart of Lyttelton,” said
Mr Hydnman. “Steve and Shaun
are quite local and do quite a lot
of activities through the community
and it’s been well-received.”
One of its brewers, Chris Wells,
comes from Dunedin and has
been on board for the past year.
An on-licence and off-licence
are in the pipeline and there are
plans to offer food, but this was
still being worked on.
“We have a couple of chefs on
board but it’s early stages yet; it
could be tapas, it could be burgers.”
Live music on Sunday afternoons
and weddings and functions
are also being considered for
the venue.

NEW RELEASES
The Wife’s Tale
A Personal History by Aida edermariam
The extraordinary story of an indomitable 95-year-old woman – and of the
most extraordinary century in Ethiopia’s history. A new Wild Swans
A hundred years ago, a girl was born in the northern Ethiopian city of Gondar.
Before she was ten years old, Yetemegnu was married to a man two decades
her senior, an ambitious poet-priest. Over the next century her world changed
beyond recognition. She witnessed Fascist invasion and occupation, Allied
bombardment and exile from her city, the ascent and fall of Emperor Haile
Selassie, revolution and civil war. She endured all these things alongside
parenthood, widowhood and the death of children.
The Wife’s Tale is an intimate memoir, both of a life and of a country. In prose
steeped in Yetemegnu’s distinctive voice and point of view, Aida Edemariam
retells her grandmother’s stories of a childhood surrounded by proud priests
and soldiers, of her husband’s imprisonment, of her fight for justice – all of it
played out against an ancient cycle of festivals and the rhythms of the seasons.
Kill the Angel
by Sandrone dazieri
A high-speed train from Milan draws into the station in Rome, and an
horrific discovery in one carriage rocks the city. Preliminary investigations
are put in the hands of Deputy Police Commissioner Colomba Caselli.
The police receive a message claiming responsibility for the act and
announcing more murders to come, and they duly turn their attention
to a small terrorist group of Islamic extremists. But investigator Dante
Torre does not believe this angle. For him, this feels like a smokescreen
concealing the actions of a killer who has a far more terrible motivation
to continue.
The trail leads to Berlin and Venice, where the waters of the Venetian
Lagoon will turn blood red...
Miss Burma
by Charmaine Craig
A beautiful and poignant story of one family during the most violent and
turbulent years of world history, Miss Burma is a powerful novel of love and
war, colonialism and ethnicity, and the ties of blood. Miss Burma tells the
story of modern-day Burma through the eyes of Benny and Khin, husband
and wife, and their daughter Louisa. After attending school in Calcutta, Benny
settles in Rangoon, then part of the British Empire, and falls in love with Khin,
a woman who is part of a long-persecuted ethnic minority group, the Karen.
Benny and Khin’s eldest child, Louisa, has a danger-filled, tempestuous
childhood and reaches prominence as Burma’s first beauty queen soon
before the country falls to dictatorship. As Louisa navigates her newfound
fame, she is forced to reckon with her family’s past, the West’s ongoing covert
dealings in her country, and her own loyalty to the cause of the Karen people.
Based on the story of the author’s mother and grandparents, Miss Burma is
a captivating portrait of how modern Burma came to be and of the ordinary
people swept up in the struggle for self-determination and freedom.
Chopper - From the Inside
by Mark Brandon read
“Apart from Irish whiskey, good cigars, Pontiac motor cars, and a pistol grip
baby .410 shotgun with solid load shells, what I love the most is kidnapping
smartarse gangsters and taking their money. To the human filth I have
bashed, belted, iron barred, axed, shot, stabbed, knee capped, set on fire and
driven to their graves, I can only quote from the motto of the French Foreign
Legion, ‘Je Ne Regrette Rien’...I regret nothing.” Mark Brandon ‘Chopper’
Read is the son of a strict Seventh Day Adventist mother and a shell-shocked
soldier who slept with a loaded gun at his side. Bullied at school, he grew
up dreaming of revenge, determined to be the toughest and hardest of
them all. He became a criminal legend who terrorised drug dealers, pimps,
thieves and armed robbers on the streets and in jail - but boasts he never
hurt an innocent member of the public. This first volume of Chopper’s
memoirs, written from inside jail, tells the story of his early life of crime - from
streetfighter to standover man, gunman to long-term prisoner. Chopper: From
the Inside is laced with his trademark brutal humour, and gives us a gripping
insight into Australia’s underworld.

Peninsula farmer Andrew
Craw has criticised the
city council over road
maintenance.
For the past 25 years, Mr
Craw has run a sheep and
beef farm in Little Akaloa.
He told Bay Harbour
News the road sides were
not being mowed or
sprayed, surfaces were
breaking up and potholes
were forming.
It had gotten “pretty bad”
over the past six months, he
said, and it wasn’t just the
metal roads.
“The surface of the sealed
road is more of a concern –
it’s falling to pieces.”
He said he’d rung the city
council twice in the past
three months, requesting
a new layer of shingle and
Road maintenance
criticised again
asking for the potholes to
be fixed. But nothing has
been done.
“I haven’t seen a grader
through on the
shingle roads
for as long as
12 months. The
surface is falling
apart and there’s
no shingle (on
it).”
Meanwhile, in
Goughs Bay, a
truck dropping
off winter feed
for animals
struggled to get
out during recent
heavy rain.
Banks Peninsula Transport
manager Rex Gebbie
said it had left a “whole lot”
on the side of the road at
the top of the bay because
it wasn’t able to safely go
down and get out again.
‘there’s no cars coming I’ll
just whip across here’.”
She said she didn’t mind
the ramp being there but
worried about the traffic
aspect.
Sumner Green and Skate
member Liza Sparrow
said the new site was fully
consented.
“The city council identified
the current location as
suitable. Key considerations
regarding suitability which
include safety, noise, visibility
and land ownership
were taken into account
and investigated. The city
council also took advice
from New Zealand Police,
roading and their own consent
teams and were confident
in providing resource
consent for the corner of
Wakefield Ave and Nayland
St,” she said.
The group recently ran
an education programme
with local schools around
safety and etiquette at the
new location.
“These are kids, they all
know the road rules but
they will need reminding.
Please support them,” Ms
Sparrow said.

Tools are arranged in an orderly
fashion along the back wall
and a nonchalant cat jumps onto
a long bench and weaves among
them.
The man behind The Bikery
is Mark Wallace. He’s bouncy
and enthusiastic and it’s hard to
believe he’s 54.
TANDEM: Mark Wallace and
Liza Sparrow on one of the
tandem bikes donated to
The Bikery.
A lecturer in behaviour
change and motivational
interviewing at Canterbury University,
he’s built a career around
the psychology of helping people
establish a healthy lifestyle.
Cycling is one of his passions,
and when the space out the back
of the Sumner Community Residents’
Association came up in
the middle of last year, he and a
couple of friends had the idea of
a setting up a community bike
shop.
It has now been operating
since June and after a slow start
is getting quite busy at weekends.
Mr Wallace and the other volunteers
can help get your bike
back on the road – or teach you
how to do it yourself.
It’s a place for people to hang
out and learn about bikes and
how to fix them – and skateboards
are on the menu, too.
“It’s not a man shed,” he
insists. “We wanted children
and older people involved. It’s a
way of getting more connection
within the community.”
People have donated bikes
they no longer use like the
tandems, and The Bikery hopes
to soon secure funding for extra
equipment such as a permanent
pump for bikes, prams and mobility
scooters.
Sumner Community Residents’
Association manager Liza
Sparrow said the state of the
roads since the February 22,
2011, earthquake meant many
parents were reluctant to let
their children bike to school.
However, once the coastal
pathway is complete, she hoped
there would be an increase in
cyclists.

Lower speed
limit on Dyers
• By Sarla Donovan
A LOWER speed limit on Dyers
Pass Rd is a step closer.
Current limits range from
70km/h to 100km/h – but will
likely drop to a flat 60km/h after
city council staff recommendations
were accepted by two community
boards on Friday.
However, a recommendation
that no-passing lines be put in
place met with opposition.
In a split decision, only the
section of Dyers Pass Rd that falls
within the Spreydon-Cashmere
board area will have double yellow
lines – extending from Hackthorne
Rd south for 3.4km.
The Spreydon-Cashmere and
Banks Peninsula community
boards met jointly on Friday to
discuss lowering speeds on Dyers
Pass Rd, between Hackthorne
and Governors Bay Rds.
While both boards agreed on a
lowered speed limit, Banks Peninsula
did not want double yellow
lines, while Spreydon-Cashmere
did.
Spreydon-Cashmere board
chairwoman Karolin Potter said
it was a difficult issue and there
were “quite a lot of strong opinions”
aired at the meeting.

About 13 people gave submissions,
most from Banks Peninsula,
she said.
“Some of them were cyclists
who believed that it would put
them in danger because motorists
would believe they couldn’t
cross the yellow lines but still
would want to pass them – and in
some places the distance between
the car and the cyclist would be
very little. Other people didn’t
like the idea of their right to pass
being transgressed.”
Ms Potter said the Spreydon-
Cashmere board asked for education
of motorists – that they can
cross double yellow lines in order
to pass cyclists.
Dyers Pass Rd has a high risk
rating compared to other rural
roads in Banks Peninsula.
Over the nine years from 2006-
2017, there were 14 serious injuries
and one fatality between Sign
of the Takahe and Governors Bay
Vehicles losing control during
cornering made up three quarters
of 178 accidents recorded over
that period.
The city council will decide in
early April whether to accept the
board’s recommendation to lower
the speed limits.

SMASH: The car left the road and hit a tree front on causing critical injuries to the driver.
Man critical after car hits tree
• By Andrew King
A MAN suffered critical injuries
after the car he was driving hit a
tree near Cooptown on Monday.
Firefighters arrived at the
scene on Christchurch Akaroa
Rd about 1pm and found the
Christchurch man out of the
vehicle.

An off-duty firefighter riding
his motorbike came across the
crash and helped the man before
others emergency services arrived.
Little River chief fire officer
Dave Irving said they are unsure
if he pulled the man from the
vehicle or he did so on his own.
“We are not sure if he was assisted
out or the adrenalin helped
him get out of the vehicle, we
didn’t have that conversation, but
we found him [the driver] lying
on the ground with some very
serious injuries,” he said.
He was taken to Christchurch

Long Term Plan: Have your say
Consultation
on the city
council’s
Long Term
Plan opens
on Friday.
Heathcote
Ward city
councillor Sara Templeton
explains what the plan is
and why you should care
EVERY THREE years the
city council drafts a 10-year
budget for consultation with the
community, known as the Long
Term Plan.
There’s a 40-page consultation
document, a capital programme,
the financial strategy, the
levels of service, and a 30-year
infrastructure plan which
sets the planned expenditure,
borrowing and rates.
While it’s a big document, it’s
not as daunting as you’d think to
get involved and have your say.
It’s all available online with
searchable pdfs and consultation
is open from Friday to April 13.
Paper copies are also available at
service centres and libraries
It’s your money and your
city. Everyone has an opinion
about what’s happening in
their community and across
Christchurch and now is the
time to influence the city council
budget.
Yes – yes, you can. Time and
time again changes are made
(including big ones) based on the
consultation.
Writing submissions and
speaking at the hearings does
count. And make sure that you

allocated for the Moncks
Bay section of the coastal
pathway in the city council’s

say what you want to stay in the
draft, not just what you want
to add or cut. Projects that are
there could also be cut if there’s
not enough support.
There will be Linwood-
Central-Heathcote Community
Board-run drop-in sessions and
local community groups are also
putting together information for
their communities.
Here’s a list of key local issues
that I hear about from the
community and where they are
currently in the draft Long Term
Plan:
•Bays area skate park – most
of the funding budgeted in
2020/21.
•Coastal pathway – currently
no money budgeted for the
Moncks Bay section.
•Sumner Village Master Plan
– various stages funded.
•Scarborough playground –
funded 2018/19.
•Main Rd Master Plan –
Redcliffs Village streetscape and
Beachville Rd streetscape funded
2018/19.
•Beachville Rd steps – currently
no money on budget to
replace them.
•Heathcote Expressway Major
Cycle Route – Tannery to Heathcote
delayed until 2025/6.
•Rapanui Shag Rock MCR
– the last section, Humphreys
Drive, is funded in 2019/20/21.
•Cobb Cottage – funded
2018/19. Maintenance issues are
a ‘level of service’ that could be
increased.
The city council’s job is to balance
service provision with rates
affordability, and current needs
with those of future generations.
It’s not easy, but we do listen – so
please have your say.

Obey the rules on your jet ski
Lyttelton-based
navigational safety officer
Gary Manch has some
simple tips to help keep
you safe on the water
Pirate’s Corner
This Weekend!
March 10-11
SINCE MY last update I’ve
received several complaints
about jet skis speeding in
areas that are restricted to five
knots.
My message this week is
directed to all boaties, but
mainly at the jet skiers out
there who choose either
wilfully or through lack of
knowledge to not comply with
our Navigation Safety Bylaw
speed rules.
I want to reinforce the fact
that we are not here to stop
you having fun on the water,
we are here to ensure the
safety of all water users. There
are plenty of areas where you
can “hoon” around without
putting yourself or others at
risk, or without breaking the
rules and making yourself
liable for a fine.
In general, if you are within
200m of the shore or a structure,
the maximum speed is
five knots, unless the area is
indicated as a speed uplifted
zone, access lane or ski lane. If
you are within 50m of a swimmer
or other vessel, including
the ones you may be travelling
with, the maximum speed
is five knots. A speed of five
knots is equivalent to a fast
walking pace. You shouldn’t
be creating a wake at that
speed.
Three areas of recent complaints
are Purau Bay, Sumner
Bay and the Heathcote Estuary.
To ensure clarity, here are
the rules in those areas.
Sumner Bay from Scarborough
to the northern side of
Shag Rock is a five-knot zone
from the shore to 400m out.
This includes when leaving
the boat ramps at either the
Christchurch Yacht Club or
the Coastguard ramp at Scarborough.
The Heathcote Estuary,
including the Heathcote and
Avon river, up to Shag Rock is
a five-knot zone.
Purau Bay is a five-knot
zone until you are 200m from
the shore. The southern end
of the bay is a ‘no powerboat’
area, including jet skis, and is
marked clearly with buoys.
Please remember to learn
the rules for the area you’re
boating in, and be safe out
there – no excuses.

Rotary gives aid after cyclone
Ferrymead
Rotary
member
Barbara
Crooks
talks about
extending
a helping
hand to those worst
affected by Cyclone Gita
ASSISTANCE: A Rotary volunteer delivers emergency kits
following the devastating cyclone in Tonga last month.
THE BAY Harbour
community is doing its
bit to help 4000 Tongans
and Samoans recover from
February’s hard-hitting
Cyclone Gita.
This support has come in
the form of 700-plus Rotary
emergency response kits
distributed in the wake of the
cyclone.
A dress-up movie-day
organised by Mt Pleasant
School pupils raised the $600
needed to fund one of these
kits. The other was part of Ferrymead
Rotary’s continuing
support for this international
emergency-support service.
In the wake of the latest
cyclone, Ferrymead Rotary
has already contributed to a
replacement kit. Because of
Rotary’s international links,
the administration and packing
is done voluntarily – which
allows every funding dollar to
go towards the contents and
transport.
Rotary’s strategy is to locate
the kits in danger areas before
a crisis occurs.
In December, on the advice
of weather forecasters as the
cyclone season neared, 1000
kits were placed in Fiji and
Tonga within easy reach of all
Pacific Islands. Five hundred
were distributed immediately
to those most in need.
Tonga was hardest hit – two
people killed, 41 injured, at
least 171 homes destroyed and
more than 1100 damaged, and
the infrastructure was severely
disrupted.
The kits come in standard,
78-litre containers packed
with more than 60 items
rated essential for survival in
an emergency. The contents
include shelter, bedding, tools,
medical supplies, and tablets
for purifying drinking water.
The container itself can be
used to hold and treat the
water.
With a little ingenuity, families
can create a shelter from
tarpaulins using the hammer
and nails provided. There’s
a folding shovel for digging
trenches. Food is key, so
there’s fishing gear, a hunting
knife, and cooking equipment.
Basic clothing and bed covers
are included to help keep
disaster victims warm, and a
medical pack, including items
such as soap, painkillers and
antiseptic cream, provides
the basics for the important
task of treating minor injuries
and maintaining hygiene and
health.
Whenever the kits are used,
Rotary seeks feedback from
partner organisations, governments,
and the communities
that received the boxes. This
information is used to regularly
review the contents of
the emergency response kits
(known in the Rotary world as
ERKs).

Plan for a healthy harbour
The Whaka-
Ora Healthy
Harbour
plan being
launched
today is an
exciting new
concept,
writes
National list
MP Nuk Korako
WE ALL love Lyttelton Harbour/
Whakaraupo, known for its
sailing, swimming, fishing
and so many other activities,
including an important working
port and tourist area.
Today, to future-proof the
harbour catchment area, the
Whaka-Ora Healthy Harbour
plan and project is being officially
launched at Rapaki Marae
in a collaborative approach between
Te Hapu o Ngati Wheke,
Te Runanga o Ngai Tahu, Environment
Canterbury, the city
council, and the Lyttelton Port
Company.
This is an exciting concept to
restore cultural and ecological
health, looking across the whole
harbour from the high outcrops
to the deep harbour waters.
This plan belongs to the community
and you can help turn it
into reality.
A great start is the celebration
to launch the Whaka-Ora
Healthy Harbour plan and
Seaweek with the harbour cleanup
and barbecue on Friday in
Lyttelton at Naval Point and at
the Diamond Harbour and Governors
Bay community centres
between 4.30-6.30pm. Everyone
is invited.
The Canterbury earthquakes
had a significant impact on the
communities of Whakaraupo/
Lyttelton Harbour.
The port itself was severely
damaged during the earthquakes
and part of the Lyttelton Port
Company recovery plan in 2015
was a commitment to create a
catchment management plan for
the future of the harbour.
This launch is also very timely
NEW: The Whaka-Ora
Healthy Harbour plan and
project is being launched
at Rapaki Marae at 1.30pm
today.
with the recent blessing that took
place for construction work to
begin on stage two of four of the
wastewater pipelines around the
harbour basin to converge and
go via the tunnel to the Bromley
treatment plant rather than into
the harbour.
Christchurch is bouncing back
– our growth and population are
up from pre-earthquake figures.
I am looking forward to seeing
the result of the census that was
completed last night, particularly
as there were many new questions.
The census is compulsory as
it provides information about
our national demographics and
plays an important part in the
calculation of resource allocation
to local service providers.
Have a great week.
FERRYMEAD
The Ruin
by Dervla McTiernan
Cormac Reilly is about to reopen the case that took him
twenty years to forget ... The most addictive crime fiction debut
of 2018.
Galway 1993: Young Garda Cormac Reilly is called to a scene
he will never forget. Two silent, neglected children - fifteen-year-old
Maude and five-year-old Jack - are waiting for him at a crumbling
country house. Upstairs, their mother lies dead.
Twenty years later, a body surfaces in the icy black waters of the River Corrib. At first it
looks like an open-and-shut case, but then doubt is cast on the investigation’s findings -
and the integrity of the police. Cormac is thrown back into the cold case that has haunted
him his entire career - what links the two deaths, two decades apart? As he navigates his
way through police politics and the ghosts of the past, Detective Reilly uncovers shocking
secrets and finds himself questioning who among his colleagues he can trust. What
really did happen in that house where he first met Maude and Jack? The Ruin draws us
deep into the dark heart of Ireland and asks who will protect you when the authorities
can’t - or won’t.
Birthright
by Fiona Lowe
Australian author Fiona Lowe returns with a juicy family saga, set against the backdrop
of Victoria’s high country, about unforgettable characters tangled together by a wealthy
inheritance, secrets and betrayal. Is an inheritance a privilege or a right?
Does it show love? Margaret, the matriarch of the wealthy Jamieson family, has always been
as tight–fisted with the family money as she is with her affection. Her eldest daughter, Sarah,
is successful in her own right as a wife, mother and part owner of a gourmet food empire.
But it’s not enough to impress her mother. Always in the shadow cast by the golden glow
of her younger brother, Sarah feels compelled to meet Margaret’s every demand to earn her
love. Does it give security? After a poverty–stricken childhood, Anita has claimed the social
status she’s worked so hard to achieve by marrying Cameron Jamieson. Although they
have a comfortable life, she’s never able to fully relax, fearing everything could change in a
heartbeat.
Or does it mean freedom? Ellie, the youngest, has lived a nomadic and – according to her
siblings – a selfish life, leaving them to care for their ageing mother. For her, freedom means
staying far away from the strings attached to her inheritance, but she needs to consider her
young son’s future as well. As their mother’s health deteriorates, will long–held secrets and
childhood rivalries smash this family into pieces?
An addictive and page–turning story of the relationships between siblings and of deceit,
betrayal and revenge.

Henderson, Hungerford make Rip Curl finals
• By Gordon Findlater
TAYLORS Mistake surfers
Ava Henderson and Estella
Hungerford both featured
in finals at the Rip Curl
GromSearch in New Plymouth.
The two-day event saw New
Zealand’s top young surfing
talent compete with more than
100 entrants, including an
Australian contingent, taking
part in six age-group categories
from under-12 through to under-
17s.
In the under-17 girls category,
Hungerford showed plenty of
promise early. She scored a 9.57
to win her semi-final ahead of
Gisborne’s Saffi Vette. However,
Vette came up with the goods in
the final to win with a score of
10.33.
Hungerford’s 7.97 in the final
was good enough for fourth.
Christchurch’s Tegan Bishop
finished second with 9.47.
Henderson came agonisingly
close in the under-14 girls
final. Her score of 8.7 was good
enough for second behind
Auckland’s Alice Westerkamp
who won with a ride of 8.83.
Christchurch’s Myka Black
also came close to trumping
the North Island riders in the
under-17 boys category. Black
produced some great rides in the
heats, quarter-finals and semifinals
to qualify for the final.
His score of 10.07 in the final
saw him finish second behind
Hamilton’s Caleb Cutmore.
The winners of the under-17
boys and girls divisions qualified
to represent New Zealand at the
International GromSearch Final
being held in May.

White Ferns visit Heathcote club
• By Gordon Findlater
WHITE FERNS players visited
the Heathcote Cricket Club on
Friday ahead of their one-day
series against the West Indies.
A group of Ferns players ran a
coaching seminar with the club’s
junior girls team and also mixed
with the group of about 90 kids
who play cricket at the club every
Friday over Summer.
“Having some international
players come down was great for
the girls,” said club president Ken
Lomax.
The Friday night community
event is run by the club’s junior
cricket captain Matthew House,
with eight volunteers from the
club introducing children aged
from five to eight to cricket before
they begin playing Saturday
games. “It’s a great event. We
get between 80-90 kids every
week who come down with their
parents to enjoy cricket,” said
Lomax.
Heathcote’s senior team recently
won the metro A one-day
competition and is currently
leading the two-day competition
with one-and-a-half rounds
remaining.
VISITORS: Kids from the
Heathcote Cricket Club met
members of the White Ferns
on Friday night.

Hydrate to elevate
We all know drinking water is important, but the
majority of us simply don’t drink enough even though
we know it makes us feel great when we do. We look
at the benefits and motivate you to drink more with a
few tips on how to make it just a little more palatable.
With over a quarter of Kiwis consuming
less than two glasses of water a day and only
5% drinking more than the recommended
eight, the message obviously hasn’t hit
home on the importance of hydrating our
body.
A recent survey conducted by
SodaStream found that Cantabrians are
particularly guilty when it comes to their
water intake.
With 82% drinking less than six glasses
of water a day, but with over 85% admitting
they feel healthier when they drink more
water, something needs to be done to
bridge the gap in terms of what we know
to be true and what we’re actually doing
about it.
This same survey revealed that although
41% of us limit how many soft drinks we
consume due to our concerns over sugar
content, the same number of people said
tea or coffee is this their number one drink
of choice.
Some people even believe that the water
consumed in their cup of Joe constitutes
part of their water intake. This is a fallacy.
As caffeine actually dehydrates us, as
does alcohol too, it means we need to
drink even more water to compensate.
Not so surprisingly the reason we don’t
drink nearly enough water is that we
simply forget. Now with apps you can
download direct to your smart phone,
there are no more excuses.
Further studies proved that people who
had a SodaStream machine in their homes
were more likely to drink more water.
In fact, the study showed that people
drank 30% more water.
For those of us who aren’t used
to drinking water like it’s going
out of fashion, there are plenty of ways
to increase the fun factor while still
being healthy.
By simply turning tap water into
sparkling water with a SodaStream
machine and adding a splash of fresh
lemon juice or naturally squeezed fruit
juice, is bound to have a positive impact on
our health and wellbeing.

Q&A:
A first from
Corrections.
Have you ever been interested
in a new career or a specific
job, but haven’t had the
chance to talk to anyone
about it before applying?
Probably, yes.
Here’s your chance to learn more about
a career with Corrections. If you’re
interested in an exciting and rewarding
career as a Corrections Officer, you can join
our Live Q&A event and have your questions
answered by Corrections Officers working
in New Zealand prisons. You will have the
opportunity to ask your questions to the panel
of working Corrections Officers and have them
answered in real time.
Over the last year we’ve held information
evenings in cities and towns across New Zealand.
Next week, for the first time you can have all
of your questions answered live online from
wherever you are. Our team will be on hand to
share their experiences about working to help
offenders change their lives and answer any
questions that you and your whanau might have.
Our Live Q&A event will make sure that you
have the information you need to decide on
a career with Corrections.
Kahore tetahi o tatou, taea te mahi,

MEET YULIA
Yulia’s experience and passion for working with
people has ensured her smooth transition into the
role of Corrections Officer at Auckland Region
Women’s Corrections Facility.
“I joined Corrections at the beginning of 2017, I
had previously worked in a range of roles including
early childhood teacher, swimming instructor and
most recently caring for older people and people
living with disabilities.”
“I love working with people, and was looking
for a different challenge. I found the job through
Seek, and researched the role on the Corrections
website. I watched the videos of staff sharing their
experiences, which made me realise this was
something I could do. I dived in, accepted the
challenge, and I’ve never looked back.”
“I love what I do, and I think so many people out
there may not realise just how much impact they
can have building a career here.”
“I will never forget the journey, and where it has
taken me so far. There are a world of opportunities
out there – I can’t wait to see what’s next.”
Yulia McConaghan, Corrections Officer

What began life as a 1950s bungalow was
transformed in the 1970s when architecture
in Christchurch was breaking from the
constraints and traditions of the past to
create what is now a truly unique home.
What we have today is an avant-garde
home nestled into the sunny slopes above
Redcliffs. Not only does it bask in sunshine
it enjoys uninterrupted views across the
estuary and up the coastline. The magic of
the setting reflects the magic to be found
indoors. On 3 levels it provides space for
everyone and everything. The main central
floor comprises the entry from the carport
at the front door, open plan kitchen dining
and living, a study/play area, 2 double
bed-rooms which open to a spacious deck
area and a state of the art bathroom. Stairs
descend to a rumpus room/studio which
opens to a paved patio area giving access to
a landscaped contemporary hillside garden.
The upper level provides the main suite
comprising bedroom, en suite and dressing
room and expansive open living space with
floor to ceiling windows. This home exudes
contemporary style with an industrial
minimalist theme.
Open homes Sundays 1.45pm-2.30pm
and Thursdays 7.30pm-8pm.
