Post-quake 

children 

inherit 

trauma 

from 

parents 

CHILDREN BORN after the 

February 22, 2011, earthquake have 

inherited trauma from their parents 

through their DNA, new data 

shows. 

Experts say it is similar to what 

can happen to children of war 

veterans. 

They say the new data, and the 

ongoing trauma experienced by 

children born before the quake, is 

contributing to a spike in young 

people seeking mental health treatment 

for a range of conditions and 

behavioural problems, including 

anxiety and concerning sexual 

behaviour. 

“The earthquake’s effects are likely 

to stay with us for the foreseeable 

future; possibly for generations, just 

as those effects experienced postwar,” 

Canterbury District Health 

Board’s Dr Harith Swadi said. 

Nearly 3100 new cases of children 

and youth under the age of 18 were 

referred for mental health treatment 

through the CDHB last year. That 

figure was the highest in more than 

a decade and had been steadily 

climbing since 2011 when it was 

1510. 

Dr Swadi said as well as being 

triggered by direct experience of 

a major traumatic event, chronic 

stress could be passed on to the 

future children of adults who lived 

through traumatic events by changes 

to DNA known as epigenetics. 

Several studies in the United 

States and Australia have shown 

some children of Vietnam War 

veterans have inherited PTSD from 

their parents.

INTERESTING DATA on a 

DNA link to children born post 

the February 2011 quake (see 

page 1). 

We all know the elderly and 

children suffered most psychologically 

from the trauma of 

the quake and the aftershocks, 

but this data is very disturbing. 

Sport Canterbury put on a 

great night a few Fridays ago 

to honour the province’s top 

sports men and women – from 

youth to the elite seniors like 

Tom Walsh and Sophie Pascoe. 

A highlight was the induction 

of Pat Barwick as a Sporting 

Legend. Leaguie Frank 

Endacott was also inducted. 

We profile Pat on pages 

22/23. 

Pat is a New Zealand 

hockey icon, and has been a 

tremendous player, coach, and 

administrator. 

She’s one of these people who 

when she talks, people listen. 

She has a way of getting the 

message across. 

And on another sporting 

note, our front page photos say 

it all – the Golden Oldies look 

like great fun.

At a Glance 

THIS WEEK IN CANTERBURY’S PAST 

This week in history saw the 

first regular supply of electricity 

from Lake Coleridge received 

in Christchurch on April 1, 

1915. On the same day in 1932 

New Regent St was opened. 

It was built on the site of the 

old Colosseum. On April 1, 

1949, the Sign of the Takahe 

(right) was opened. This was 

the completion of the Summit 

Rd development begun by 

Harry Ell in 1908. On April 1, 

Fundraiser for 

stem cell operation 

1979, the Lyttelton road tunnel 

became toll-free. On April 3, 

1967, the re-built Ferrymead 

Bridge was opened. On April 2, 

1873, the first and second town 

halls were destroyed by fire. It 

took 99 years to replace this 

civic amenity. On April 5, 1844, 

Frederick Tuckett and a party 

including surveyors, landed 

at Lyttelton from the Deborah 

looking for a suitable site for a 

Scottish settlement in the South 

NEWS 14 

Island. They subsequently got 

lost in the swamps, so it is not 

surprising that their eventual 

choice was Otago. On the same 

day in 1985, the Duke and 

Duchess of Gloucester visited 

the city. On April 8, 1883, the 

first shipment of frozen Canterbury 

lamb left Lyttelton for the 

United Kingdom on the British 

King. On the same day in 1959, 

Billy Graham drew 50,000 

people to Lancaster Park.

Fire rages, homes at risk 

Still crazy about crêpes 

French delights 

at food show 

• By Julia Evans 

SHEENA HEMENS hadn’t 

made a single crêpe until she fell 

in love with a Frenchman. 

But while the relationship did 

not last, Ms Hemens now owns 

the rapidly expanding cafe, Maison 

de Crêpes, which is about 

to make its debut at The Food 

Show tomorrow. 

“I have a background in marketing 

so it was out of left field 

but I met a young Frenchman 

and fell in love,” she said. 

“He’s from Brittany, home of 

crêpes, and was bemused why 

there weren’t any crêpes in New 

Zealand. And while we broke up 

at the end of last year, I was still 

very much in love with crêpes.” 

Before moving into the world 

of hospitality, Ms Hemens had 

spent more than a decade in the 

corporate jungle as a marketing 

executive. 

Until 2015, she said she had 

never so much as served someone 

a coffee. 

“My business brain kicked 

into play and I saw a massive 

opportunity for a good quality 

crêpe brand,” Ms Hemens said 

Following a whirlwind crêpemaking 

course on Skype with a 

50-year French crêpier veteran 

who couldn’t speak a word of 

English, Maison de Crêpes was 

born in the form of a kiosk in 

The Colombo. 

“I sold my house, used my 

inheritance . . . I put everything 

CATERING: Sheena Hemens, owner of the expanding cafe, Maison de Crêpes, will be 

showcasing crêpes at The Food Show from Friday. 

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER 

into this business, boots and 

all,” she said. 

She was spending more than 

50 hours a week in the shop in 

the beginning, it became her 

life. 

From its days as a kiosk, 

Maison de Crêpes has since 

expanded into a full cafe at 

Carlton Courts on Papanui Rd. 

But Ms Hemens said her 

dream is to “make crêpes the 

new sushi” and expand the 

brand around the country, then 

eventually take it global. 

“We’re opening a second, 

bigger shop later in the year in 

the city centre. Then I’d like to 

expand around New Zealand 

and eventually try and take the 

brand overseas,” she said. 

Ms Hemens and Maison 

de Crêpes will be showcasing 

crêpes at Horncastle Arena from 

tomorrow until Sunday. She said 

it’s another step in her mission 

to get Kiwis to love crêpes as 

much as she does. 

The Food Show will feature 

more than 80 local and national 

exhibitors and displays from 

chefs, including MasterChef 

New Zealand’s Nadia Lim and 

Chelsea Winter.

Preliminary biopsy results positive for Maddie 

• By Emily O’Connell 

MADDIE COLLINS is back 

home after a short trip to 

Starship Children’s Health prior 

to Easter. 

The 14-year-old and her 

parents were flown to 

Auckland last week after blood 

test results indicated something 

was wrong with her new 

kidney. 

This comes just three months 

after Maddie’s “miracle” kidney 

transplant. 

Maddie’s kidney biopsy, 

which was scheduled for this 

week, was brought forward to 

last Wednesday. 

Her mother Sarah 

Manson-Collins said the 

preliminary biopsy results are 

positive. 

“The biopsy’s shown that 

everything looks okay and that 

there’s no sign of any rejection,” 

she said. 

Mrs Manson-Collins said 

Maddie will have another blood 

test today and they will be given 

the formal biopsy results in the 

next few days. 

She said there is a possibility 

surgeons took a good sample of 

the kidney but they will have to 

wait and see. 

In Brief 

CYCLIST ATTACKED 

A cyclist was taken to hospital 

after he was attacked by two people 

on Matipo St, Riccarton, about 

11.20am yesterday. Police said the 

victim was stopped and assaulted 

by the pair who were known 

to him. His bike was stolen. He 

suffered moderate injuries. 

ONE-OFF MARKET 

A one-off artisan market will be 

held at Victoria Square on Saturday 

to celebrate its reopening and 

recognise its history as a trading 

place. Matapopore trustee Joseph 

Hullen said it was formerly known 

as Market Square, with many 

Ngāi Tūāhuriri from Kaiapoi 

going there to sell their produce to 

European settlers. About 30 local 

stalls will be there from 10am-1pm. 

In the case of bad weather, the 

market will be postponed until 

April 21. 

SHIFT TO QE II POOL 

After the new QE II Park 

Recreation and Sport Centre 

opens in June, the city council is 

forecasting a 25 per cent decrease 

in patrons at Papanui’s Graham 

Condon Sport and Recreation 

Centre. Graham Condon currently 

has about 820,000 users annually, 

but once the new centre opens 

on Travis Rd, staff predict that 

number will drop to 600,000. 

LANCASTER PARK WEBCAM 

A webcam is giving people a front 

row view of one of the largest 

demolition projects in the country. 

The webcam has been installed 

at Lancaster Park and will record 

every stage of the deconstruction 

process. The images, which will 

refresh every 10min, can be found 

on the city council website. 

CARTWRIGHT STEPS DOWN 

Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood 

Community Board chairman 

David Cartwright has stepped 

down from his role as chairman 

after handing in his resignation 

at the board meeting on Monday. 

A new chairperson will be voted 

in by board members at the next 

meeting on April 16. Deputy chairman 

Sam MacDonald will put his 

hand up for the role.

Cathedral site a ‘civic 

• By Bridget Rutherford 

OVERGROWN weeds 

and vegetation on the 

Christ Church Cathedral 

site have been labelled a 

“civic disgrace” and an 

“embarrassment” to the 

city. 

Central Ward city 

councillor Deon Swiggs 

has launched a tirade 

about the state of the site, 

which has weeds, gorse, 

and overgrown vegetation 

engulfing it. 

“The heart of our city is 

being left to rot like this, 

and it is not good enough,” 

he said yesterday. 

“The grounds of 

the Cathedral are 

a civic disgrace, an 

embarrassment to our city 

and disrespectful to all 

who are putting effort to 

develop around the area.” 

He asked city council 

chief executive Karleen 

Edwards on Tuesday 

to look into what was 

happening with the site, 

and if the city council 

could help.

DISGRACE: City councillor Deon Swiggs says 

the state of the Christ Church Cathedral site is an 

embarrassment, and it should be tidied up. 

Cathedral’s restoration 

would take years, but in the 

mean time the site could be 

kept in a tidy state. 

He said in November, 


Reinstatement Trust 

chairman Peter Guthrey 

said he wanted the site 

cleared by early in the new 

year. 

“It’s now April and I’m 

calling time on it,” he said.

disgrace, embarrassment’ 

He said they were looking at 

“appropriate solutions.” 

Minister for Greater Christchurch 

Regeneration Megan Woods 

said discussions were under way 

between the trust and the Church 

Property Trustees on finalising a 

joint venture agreement to establish 

a joint project delivery entity 

for the restoration. 

That would happen in the next 

few weeks, she said. 

“One of the key aspects of this 

negotiation will be the timing 

and sequencing of the clean-up 

and restoration of the Cathedral 

site, including health and safety 

considerations,” Dr Woods said. 

“The trust is working with 

Regenerate Christchurch, and 

the Christchurch City Council 

around the tidy-up of the Square. 

I am hopeful of seeing more progress 

in the near future.” 

Central City Business Association 

manager Paul Lonsdale told 

Star.kiwi the Cathedral had been 

sitting there for seven years and 

the weeds on the site had got “out 

of control.” 

“It’s one of the things that 

the tourists comment about the 

most.” 

He said Mr Guthrey was working 

hard to have the site cleared. 

The issue comes as Regenerate 

Christchurch comes under fire 

for the lack of progress on plans 

for Cathedral Square, and the 

cost so far. 

A strategy, with recommendations, 

time frames and costs for 

the Square was meant to be done 

by October – but that had still not 

been finished. 

It had spent more than 

$850,000 on the Square so far 

on technical reports, design 

development, delivery costings 

and engagement.

Tourists’ take on problem 

SYDNEY COUPLE Duncan 

Brown and Emily Pisano visited 

the Christ Church Cathedral 

for the first time yesterday as 

part of their New Zealand trip. 

Mr Brown said it would be 

a shame to let the site become 

completely overgrown, as it 

would be difficult to get back to 

an appropriate standard. 

But he said logistically it 

could be difficult to deal with 

the vegetation while the site was 

cordoned off. 

“It’s probably a bit dangerous 

to get into some of it and take 

it out.” 

Ms Pisano said the weeds and 

vegetation showed how time 

had passed since the earthquakes. 

Frank and Margaret Lewins, 

of the Sunshine Coast, stopped 

in Christchurch during their 

rail tour of the country. 

Mr Lewins said the Cathedral 

and the surrounding vegetation 

was the consequence of a major 

natural disaster. 

“The weeds and things give a 

sense of the loss and how long 

it’s been like that,” Mrs Lewins 

said. 

“I didn’t notice the weeds as 

much because you’re looking up 

at the dramatic destruction.”

Bid for stem cell operation in Russia 



LISA FISHER wants to be able 

to watch her 13-year-old son 

play sport, walk the dog, go to 

the supermarket, and do her 

housework in a day. 

But the 44-year-old has to 

live with severe fatigue, constant 

pins and needles on her right 

side, numbness, and walks with 

a limp after being diagnosed 

with multiple sclerosis over a 

year ago. 

Her condition is not yet considered 

bad enough to qualify 

for Government funding for 

disease-modifying drugs. 

So, Mrs Fisher, husband Kelvin 

and son Corban are fundraising 

$100,000 to get her to Moscow, 

Russia, in August for a stem cell 

transplant. 

The procedure involves removing 

Mrs Fisher’s stem cells,

Anger over inquiry into signs 


“PETTY, underhanded and 

stupid.” 

That’s what Templeton 

Residents’ Association chairman 

Garry Kilday is calling 

the city council’s investigation 

into signs urging a stop to the 

planned controversial quarry 

in the area. 

On Tuesday, 

Templeton 

resident 

Janice Van 

Tongeren 

approached 

a city council 

official after 

Garry Kilday 

he had peered 

over her gate 

on Globe Bay Drive. 

Mrs Van Tongeren said he 

told her he was taking note 

of the addresses that had ‘NO 

QUARRY’ signs on their 

property. 

He told Mrs Van Tongeren 

there was a “possibility” 

residents would have to take 

down the signs or they could 

be fined. 

Some Templeton residents 

have placed the yellow signs 

on their fences in protest of 

Fulton Hogan’s plan to create a 

quarry nearby. 

The construction firm says 

MESSAGE: The city council is investigating the size and 

positions of ‘NO QUARRY’ signs in Templeton following 

two complaints from members of the public. 

PHOTO: GILBERT WEALLEANS 

the quarry, which will be on a 

170ha section of land on Dawsons, 

Curraghs and Jones Rds, 

will be there for up to 40 years. 

City council head of 

regulatory compliance Tracey 

Weston confirmed that the 

city council is investigating the 

size and placement of the signs 

and whether they breach city 

council bylaws. 

“A planning assessment is 

currently being undertaken 

against the District Plan and 

Public Places bylaw to determine 

what size signage is 

permitted in the areas where 

the signs are displayed,” she 

added. 

Mr Kilday couldn’t believe 

the city council would act 

“so quickly to something so 

minimal.” 

He said Templeton residents 

will be joining forces with 

groups in similar situations in 

Wellington and Clevedon. 

“We thought we’d do a 

three-pronged attack . . . we’ll 

use the same signage, we’ll 

have the same messages, 

everything,” Mr Kilday said. 

Residents suspected the 

complaints had come from 

Fulton Hogan or a real estate 

agent but Ms Weston said they 

came from members of the 

public. 

A city council spokeswoman 

said she couldn’t answer why 

the man had peered over Mrs 

Van Tongeren’s fence, but said 

it could be to see how the sign 

was attached to the fence. 

Mrs Van Tongeren said 

there’s no way she will be 

taking down her two signs. 

“I’m not taking them down, 

they’re on my property … it’s 

not doing any harm to anyone, 

it is proving it’s a point. It’s a 

free world isn’t it?” Mrs Van 

Tongeren said. 

A Fulton Hogan spokeswoman 

confirmed the company 

had not laid a complaint 

with the city council.

Misbehaving, anxious children result 

Kids born after the 

2011 earthquake have 

inherited trauma 

through DNA from their 

parents, and schools 

are dealing with more 

behavioural issues 

as a consequence. 

Brittany Keogh reports 

CANTERBURY children born 

after the February 22, 2011, 

earthquake have inherited 

trauma from their parents 

through their DNA – similar to 

what can happen to children of 

war veterans, experts say. 

That, and the ongoing trauma 

experienced by children born 

before the quake is contributing 

to a spike in young people 

seeking mental health treatment 

for a range of conditions and 

behavioural problems, including 

anxiety and concerning sexual 

behaviour. 

Nearly 3100 new cases of 

children and youth under the age 

of 18 were referred for mental 

health treatment through the 

Canterbury District Health 

Board last year, new data shows. 

That figure was the highest 

in more than a decade and had 

AFTER EFFECTS: Kids born after the February 22, 2011, earthquake have had trauma passed 

down to them through their parents DNA. 

PHOTO: BRETT PHIBBS 

been steadily climbing since 2011 

when it was 1510. 

Harith Swadi, clinical director 

of child, adolescent and family 

specialist mental health services 

at the CDHB, said medical practitioners 

were still dealing with 

the effects of trauma more than 

seven years after the devastating 

February 22, 2011, earthquake. 

As well as being triggered by 

direct experience of a major 

traumatic event, chronic stress 

could be passed on to the future 

children of adults who lived 

through traumatic events by 

changes to DNA known as epigenetics. 

“The earthquake’s effects are 

likely to stay with us for the 

foreseeable future; possibly for 

generations, just as those effects 

experienced post-war,” said Dr 

Swadi. 

Several studies in the United 

States and Australia have shown 

some children of Vietnam War 

veterans have inherited posttraumatic 

stress disorder from 

their parents. 

That is because of epigenetics, 

which is essentially how people’s 

lifestyles and experiences change 

how their genes are expressed, 

turning off some genes and turning 

on others. 

Dr Swadi said older children 

who lived through the 2010, 

2011 and 2016 earthquakes 

that ravaged the Canterbury 

region were also suffering 

from ongoing, but manageable 

earthquake-related fears and 

trauma caused by environmental 

and lifestyle changes.

“The earthquakes have 

changed many aspects of daily 

life in the form of parents’ distress, 

lack of certainty and EQC 

and insurance issues. The fabric 

of society here in Canterbury has 

changed and it is more stressful 

for many people,” Dr Swadi said. 

“Children, as a result, suffer. 

They have new worries and have 

fewer supports from the adults 

around them. They become more 

insecure and more anxious.” 

Anxiety often affected children’s 

behaviour and led to 

emotional difficulties and school 

and relationship problems. 

Stop, a Christchurch-based 

organisation that helps people 

struggling with concerning 

sexual behaviour or who have 

sexually abused others, has seen 

a sharp increase in referrals to its 

programme for primary and intermediate 

school-aged children. 

In 2007, nine children were 

treated through the programme. 

Last year, 58 kids under 12 

sought help from Stop. 

Demand for Stop’s adolescent 

and adult services, however, was 

static. 

The organisation’s services are 

available to people in Nelson, 

Dunedin, Christchurch and 

Invercargill but most clients are 

from Canterbury. 

Suzanne Alliston, team leader 

of Stop’s children’s services, said 

while exposure to easily accessible 

online pornography had 

contributed to the rising number 

of kids needing treatment, the 

earthquakes had also had a significant 

impact. 

“Sexualised behaviour in children 

can be seen as one way of 

coping with hard feelings. It’s not 

related to sex as much as it’s related 

to an unhealthy expression 

or way of not coping,” she said. 

“Kids might be acting out at 

school – kicking, punching, 

destroying property – or they 

TROUBLED: School principals have noticed “increased 

prevalence of anxiety and behavioural issues in children since 

the quakes.” 

might be engaging in sexualised 

behaviour and often the reason 

for those things are very similar 

and anxiety is a part of that.” 

James Morris, chairman of the 

Secondary Principals’ Council 

and principal at Darfield High 

School, said Canterbury school 

principals had noticed an 

increased prevalence of anxiety 

and behavioural issues in children 

since the quakes. 

“The stress or anxiety plays out 

in different ways in different students. 

It’s not necessarily that a 

student is cowering in the corner 

or anything like that. Sometimes 

that anxiety plays out in the way 

that they behave or engage with 

their work.” 

Young people who were in 

pre-school or just starting 

school during the 2010 and 

2011 earthquakes were now in 

year 6 to year 9 and, along with 

usual challenges that came with 

transitioning from primary to 

secondary school, they had to 

deal with earthquake-related 

post-traumatic stress. 

A 2016 university study of 

young children in Canterbury 

concluded that children who 

started school after the earthquakes 

had significantly more 

behavioural problems and PTSD 

symptoms than children born 

pre-quake had at the same age. 

Prime Minister Jacinda 

Ardern announced in February 

the Government would roll out 

a $28 million mental health programme 

for Canterbury’s school 

children during the next three 

years. The funding would be put 

towards ensuring every child had 

access to a mental health worker. 

Mr Morris said schools in 

the area were working with 

the CDHB and Ministry of 

Education to develop strategies 

to support communities and 

ensure the education and health 

sectors and families were using a 

consistent approach to deal with 

mental health issues in children 

and young people.

The Ministry for the Environment

Denton Park feedback 

more than Cathedral 

HORNBY’S DENTON Park has 

received more public feedback 

than Christ Church Cathedral. 

The city council has received 

more than 1450 submissions on 

the reclassification of the park, 

with 530 hard copy submissions 

handed in on the last day. 

This surpasses the 1063 submissions 

the city council received 

on the reinstatement of Christ 

Church Cathedral. 

In August, city councillors 

voted between Warren, Denton 

and Kyle parks for the location 

of Hornby’s $35.7 million mega 

centre. Denton Park was then 

chosen. 

In order to build on 9766 sq m 

of Denton Park, the reserve classification 

has to change. 

The facility’s proposed location 

has been highly controversial 

with sports clubs fearful of losing 

their home ground to the 

new Hornby library, customer 

services and leisure centre. 

Save Denton Park group 

treasurer Ross Houliston said he 

wasn’t surprised by the number 

of submissions but he thought 

there may have been more. 

He said the submissions has 

made the group “stronger.” 

Mr Houliston said he will 

be “very, very blistering” in his 

upcoming talk to the hearings 

panel. 

A city council spokeswoman 

said she doesn’t have information 

on the number in favour and 

against the reclassification yet.

Visit to grave of brother he never knew 

Dutch teacher 

connects family 

with aviator 

killed in WW2 


KEVIN PIKE never met his 

eldest brother Trevor. 

Trevor was an wireless 

operator and gunner on a 

Stirling bomber shot down over 

Holland during World War 2, a 

year before Kevin was born. 

All seven on-board the plane, 

which was returning from a 

bombing run over Germany, 

were killed in the crash. 

This month, the 74-year-old 

will place poppies at Trevor 

Pike’s grave and the site where he 

died in Holland. 

On Tuesday, Kevin Pike will 

travel to Amsterdam with his 

son Steven, daughter-in-law Jane, 

and grandson Thomas. 

Then they will make their way 

to Ingen, where his brother’s 

Stirling bomber was shot out of 

the sky on October 15, 1942. 

The aircraft circled before 

crashing into a paddock near the 

farming village, killing all seven 

crew. 

Trevor Pike, a Royal New 

Zealand Air Force wireless 

operator and air gunner, was in 

a Royal Air Force aircraft with 

allied soldiers. 

They had been on a mission to 

bomb Cologne when German 

night-gunner Bruno Eickmeier 

shot the aircraft down. He 

was later killed in action, 

after shooting down 10 allied 

bombers. 

The youngest of 11 children, 

Kevin Pike was born the year 

after his 22-year-old brother 

died. 

But he grew up surrounded by 

his memory. 

“Trevor was a quiet man. 

Mum said he was a good boy. He

He had enlisted in the Royal 

New Zealand Air Force in 

April 13, 1941, before leaving to 

Canada in May to continue his 

air training.

to visit the crash site, which has

three New Zealanders, three 

British and Canadian men who 

died. 

They would place poppies 

there. 

Then they would go to 

Amersfoort Cemetery where 

the crew were buried. Kevin 

Pike said they would place 

poppies on Trevor’s grave, 

along with a photo of their late 

parents. 

He said the visit would be 

“very emotional.” 

The trip has been eight years in 

the making. 

Kevin Pike said in 2010 

he came across a notice in a 

newspaper titled ‘Seeking Pike 

family.’ 

It was a letter from Richard 

van de Velde, a Dutch history 

teacher who was researching all 

the war victims killed near his 

home in Buesichem. 

Kevin Pike said after eight 

years, he was finally going to 

meet Mr van de Velde, who 

would take them to the crash site 

and the cemetery. 

After the visit they would 

head to the French town of Le 

Quesnoy to attend Anzac Day 

commemorations.

Sumner crime cameras still on hold 

• By Sarla Donovan 

Sally Buck 

THE installation of Sumner’s 

CCTV crime cameras appears to 

have stalled. 

A Givealittle page was set up to 

raise funds for two surveillance 

cameras following several aggravated 

burglaries in the Sumner 

area last year. 

Set up by a 

group of concerned 

residents 

called Safer 

Sumner, the page 

raised $4005 

towards the cameras 

which were 

purchased at cost 

price from security firm October 

Protection in January. 

The group wanted to install 

them on a lamp post opposite the 

Sumner Surf Life Saving Club on 

Main Rd and contacted the city 

council for permission. 

Since then, the project seems 

to have hit a wall. 

City council transport 

operations manager Ryan 

Cooney said in late January the 

group had been referred to the 

Linwood-Central-Heathcote 

Community Board “in order 

that appropriate processes are 

followed i.e. compliance with the 

Privacy Act.” 

But board chairman Sally Buck 

said last week no-one from 

Safer Sumner had been in 

touch in the two months since 

then.

BRAVE: Emely 

van Ras has been 

instrumental in 

getting CCTV 

cameras in 

Sumner after she 

was confronted 

by an intruder 

with a knife in her 

home last year. 

She helped form 

a group called 

Safer Sumner 

which raised 

$4004 for two 

cameras. It wants 

to install them 

opposite the 

Sumner Surf Life 

Saving Club. 

Group spokeswoman Kath 

Preston said she was unsure 

about who to contact but has 

since spoken to the Sumner 

Community Residents’ Association 

about the matter. 

SCRA manager Liza Sparrow 

confirmed they had been in 

touch with city council staff and 

were waiting for a date and time 

to present the plans for the cameras 

to the community board. 

The October 24 knifepoint 

invasion of hairdresser Emely 

van Ras’ Scarborough home 

prompted the formation of the 

group, which intended to “put 

together a strategy and purchase 

and install surveillance equipment” 

in Sumner village. 

Ms Preston said in late December 

that residents had been 

concerned for a number of years 

that property-related crime was 

on the rise. However, she said 

it was the burglary of Miss van 

Ras that sparked the group into 

action. 

Lyttelton cafe 

withdrawn 

from market 

• By Sarla Donovan 

POPULAR Lyttelton eatery 

Rushanis is no longer for sale. 

The London St business was 

listed on Trade Me in February 

but owner Rushani Bowman 

confirmed yesterday she was not 

selling. 

She did not want to comment 

further on her plans for the business, 

but said: “Watch 

this space. There are a few 

things happening in the background.” 

The container cafe which 

sold coffee, lunch and takeout 

dinners was closed in January 

by owners Jonny and Rushani 

Bowman after Jonny suffered a 

seizure at work. 

She couldn’t work full-time at 

the business and look after now 

14-month-old Rishi. 

Mrs Bowman set up a 

Givealittle page while the couple 

considered their future. 

It raised $7090 from 68 

donors, helping the Bowmans 

to pay their immediate weekly 

personal bills while they 

were unable to operate the business. 

“It was humbling that people 

cared,” Mrs Bowman said.

Now 

WITH JUST two more months 

of autumn to go, winter is 

coming. And with it, cold 

weather and higher power bills. 

I know for a lot of people, 

especially older people on fixed 

incomes, this can be a worrying 

time. 

And there are people for 

whom rising winter power bills 

have simply become too much 

to meet. About 1600 Kiwis die 

each year due to cold housing 

in winter and thousands more 

end up in hospital. Older New 

Zealanders and those on fixed 

incomes tend to be hardest hit. 

That’s not right and we can do 

better. 

And there’s good evidence 

that we can do better. The 

International Energy Agency 

has said that in New Zealand 

residential power prices have 

risen by 50 per cent since the 

year 2000 and have risen much 

faster than in many other 

countries we compare ourselves 

to. 

Kiwis need to know that when 

they go to the mail box and get 

their power bills every month, 

they are getting a fair deal. 


Electricity review about ‘getting a fair deal’ 

That’s why last week the 

Government announced the 

final terms of reference for our 

Electricity Pricing Review. 

The review will be a thorough 

look at the entire electricity 

market, from generation through 

transmission and distribution 

to retail, to establish if prices are 

fair, the market is competitive 

and if consumers are getting a 

good deal. 

It will also look at the way that 

new technology is changing what 

people have to pay for power. For 

example, solar panels are a great 

way for people to bring down the 

cost of the power they pay for, 

but they mean people don’t have 

to be connected to the electricity 

grid, pushing up the price for 

everyone else. 

Our review will make sure we 

have the regulations and systems 

in place to make sure we can get 

the most out of new technology 

without it having unintended 

consequences. 

While this review happens, 

though, our Government is also 

doing more to help people with 

the cost of their power bills – 

this year we are introducing a 



Winter Energy Payment. This 

will be available for every New 

Zealander over 65 who receives 

superannuation or veteran’s 

pension, as well as people 

receiving a main benefit, to heat 

their homes during the coldest 

months. 

The annual rates of payment 

will be $450 for single people 

with no dependent children, and 

$700 for couples or single people 

with dependent children. 

These actions we are taking 

mean more people will be able 

to afford to heat their homes and 

stay warm this winter. 

•Megan Woods is the

sports facility . . . it’s bad enough 

trying to park anywhere near 

the hospital as it is, don’t even 

consider trying to park in the 

area when Saturday sports are 

on at Hagley Park, the parking 

building being built now will not 

be enough. 

New Government MPs 

are working to resolve 

Christchurch Hospital’s 

parking situation by the 

start of winter as the 

situation reaches “crunch 

point.” 

Debbie Hamel – It is 

absolutely disgusting that there 

is nowhere to park. As if we don’t 

have enough worries when we 

go to hospital. Christchurch city 

needs to suck it up and release 

some of Hagley Park, it’s just 

stupid. 

Colleen Hamilton – I have 

to take my husband once or 

twice every week for nearly two 

years. He’s too ill now to use the 

shuttle. The added stress of trying 

to find a park is beyond anything. 

Yes we do have a mobility

sticker but never any parks free 

. . . the ill and elderly don’t appear 

to be of any importance. 

Mark Peters – This is third 

world, time for a solution. I like 

the proposal to use the underutilised 

Lichfield St city council 

car park with a shuttle service 

to the hospital. Added benefit 

of encouraging people back 

towards the CBD. 

Gilda Campbell – Even at 

1am there is nowhere to park, 

my daughters appendix had 

burst and we had to walk in the 

dark from ages away. 

Nichola Tyson – Just wait 

until/if they build the metro 

Karen Whila – Imagining 

my dad at 94 standing there in 

those appalling conditions. One 

whiff of a southerly could kill 

him. 

Dinah Jane Geda – Parking 

for nurses, other shift workers, 

patients and visitors needs to be 

a priority in this city. The present 

situation is disgraceful and an 

embarrassment. It needs to be 

addressed urgently. Nurses are 

already overworked from their 

understaffing issues and have 

been ‘working’ for years just to 

find a park to get to their employment 

location, unacceptable 

and very stressful. 

Maggie Mariner – Any 

Cantabrian who has stood in the 

elements in a south-westerly/ 

rain and cold knows how bitter 

it is. Shelters are required at bare 

minimum.

Te Kura Tuarua o Horomaka 

Hillmorton High School 


Year off to 

a busy start 

Kia ora koutou, talofa lava, 

warm greetings to you all. 

The year has begun well with much student activity in the first few 

weeks with our pōwhiri, swimming and athletic sports, Polyfest, 

summer sport and the Canterbury Athletic champs. 

Our students and staff are busy with teaching and learning both in the 

classroom and outside the classroom. 

Our Board of Trustees has written a new 

draft strategic plan setting a new direction 

for the school. This is creating a positive 

energy as we move forward with plans for 

the new Middle School building. 

Our Education Brief stated clearly that we 

wanted our new building to be flexible, 

allowing for a vast range of learning 

activities. Our architects have ensured that 

our learning spaces are dynamic – they can 

be contracted to be single cell classrooms or 

opened up to a large central internal “street” 

allowing for multiple uses. 

We are also fortunate in that we will 

experience very little disruption (some 

building noise only) as construction begins. Our older classrooms will 

not be demolished until the new 22 classroom block is completed. It 

sits facing Tankerville Road on our current tennis courts. 

As well as this large building, we are also planning for a new 

gymnasium which will be Board funded, applying for grants to add to 

what the Board will make available. A group of staff is working hard to 

ensure this also becomes a reality although the timeframe is uncertain 

at this stage. 

New buildings do not in themselves lead to improved educational 

outcomes for our students, but our staff is excited about the many 

possibilities the new facilities will allow for in terms of exciting and 

engaging learning for us all.

Exciting opportunities abound 

Visits by New Zealand authors, the National

opportunities that students have enjoyed this 

term. 

James Norcliffe and Maria Gill worked with 

students earlier in the year, and more recently,

workshops and a reading workshop. 

A key message was that school and reading 

was where it all starts, and working hard was 

crucial! 

The Science Roadshow visit is a popular event 

on the school calendar and a real chance for

Events ‘create real value for the city’ 


EASTER WEEKEND reminded 

us what happens when we don’t 

host a major concert like Ed 

Sheeran – for a start we lose 

many of our own people to other 

centres and second we miss 

that vibe that comes with the 

excitement of the concert and 

the economic benefits it brings. 

But it’s not only concerts that 

bring financial benefits to a city. 

There are many events that can 

create real value for the city. 

I’m afraid I overstated the 

economic benefits of the Golden 

Oldies Sports Celebration 2018 

in last week’s column. That’s 

the trouble when you rely on 

“Mr Google” working to a tight 

deadline in a short week. 

But that being said, there 

are still significant benefits 

in bringing more than 5000 

people from 16 countries to 

Christchurch over a four-week 

period to play six different 

sports. The more fun they have, 

the more likely it is that they and 

their friends will return. 

And there is a little snippet 

that I didn’t realise until I was 

talking to one of the organisers 

and one of the ambassadors, Sir 

Bob Charles, and that is that 

at 4pm next Friday the 13th, at 

the end of the golfing week, the 

Lianne Dalziel 

ECONOMIC BOOST: Lianne Dalziel is touting the benefits of 

big events like the Christchurch Casino Golden Oldies Sports 

Celebration 2018. 

20 top players of the week will 

tee off for a shot at the holein-one 

of more than 150m for 

$1 million. Now I haven’t got 

that number wrong. And I’m 

definitely going to watch – how 

exciting – imagine if someone 

actually does it? 

But back to the economic 

benefits of events, this is 

something we are asking for 

feedback on in our Long Term 

Plan. We have developed a Major 

Events Strategy, but to gain the 

benefits they can bring, we need 

to invest in attracting the events 

and in the facilities to host them. 

Locals have always loved the 

opportunity to get out and enjoy 

great events – they don’t call 

Canterbury the sporting capital 

of New Zealand for nothing. 

And we’re not just spectators 

either; we’re participants; we love 

to get involved. So great events 

not only attract visitors, who will 

always want to see more of the 

region, they are great for those of 

us who live here. 

So how should we make this 

sort of commitment? I know 

there has been commentary 

on the need to have a decision 

on the stadium. We need to 

ask some searching questions 

about what we can afford as a 

region, and how we can future 

proof what we build for a range 

of purposes, not just sport. We 

are not proposing changes in 

this LTP, but I’m sure we will 

need to consult on it sooner 

rather than later. One of the 

questions we are asking in this 

year’s LTP, however, is “what 

do you think of the council 

providing additional funding to 

ChristchurchNZ so that it can 

bid for major events on behalf 

of the city, support new events 

through sponsorship and test the 

feasibility?” I would encourage 

you to give this some thought. 

You have until 5pm, Friday, 

April 13 to submit on the draft 

Long Term Plan. See details on 

the have your say page on the 

city council website – https:// 

ccc.govt.nz/the-council/

service centres.

Another step towards 

becoming smoke-free 

WE WANT more Kiwis to quit 

smoking because 4500-5000 New 

Zealanders still die prematurely 

each year from smoking-related 

illnesses. 

Smoking rates and tobacco 

consumption have declined in 

recent decades down to about 15 

per cent of the general population, 

and less young people are 

taking smoking up. But there is 

a group of long-term smokers, 

particularly Maori and Pasifika, 

who find it extremely difficult 

to quit. So I believe we must be 

open to alternatives that help to 

wean smokers off cigarettes, and 

have fewer health risks. 

The Members’ Bill I lodged this 

week, the Smoke-free Environments 

(Regulation of Electronic 

Cigarettes) Amendment Bill, is 

based on the work I did as the 

associate minister of health. It is 

designed to improve laws around 

the accessibility of e-cigarettes 

to provide less harmful alternatives 

for long-term smokers and 

to help them kick the habit. It 

will allow electronic cigarettes 

containing nicotine to be sold to 

persons over 18 years of age. 

Currently, the sale and supply 

of nicotine e-cigarettes and 

e-liquid as consumer products 

is illegal. However, for smokers, 

e-cigarettes are significantly less 

harmful than tobacco (estimated 

95 per cent less harmful) and the 

Ministry of Health itself has said 

that e-cigarettes have the potential 

to contribute to New Zealand’s 

smoke-free 2025 goal. 

E-cigarettes offer a better 

alternative to ordinary cigarettes 

for long-term, more ingrained 

smokers and they pose no identified 

health risks to bystanders. 

They have been available overseas 

and in the United Kingdom 

for more than 10 years and there 

is no evidence that they provide 

a gateway for smokers to cigarettes 

or that non-smokers take 

up e-cigarettes. 

This Bill prohibits the sale 

and supply in public places of 

e-cigarettes to people under the

age of 18, limits advertising and 

promotion, and prohibits vaping 

in legislated smoke-free areas 

to preserve our strong cultural 

norms around the undesirability 

of smoking. 

We still have some way to go to 

become a smoke-free nation and 

while vaping and electronic cigarettes 

are not a cure-all, they do 

offer the alternative of a healthier 

lifestyle for smokers by bridging 

the gap between a long-term 

habit and quitting altogether. 

And that’s got to be a good thing.

who say they’re doing no harm, 

I suspect you’d think very 

differently if they were parking 

outside your driveway, leaving 

stained toilet paper, remnants 

of cooking/food and rubbish at 

your fence line. It’s 

not the location, per

using cemeteries

those who visit

The rubbish down

Our People 


Pat Barwick 

Hockey great becomes a Canterbury 

Hockey icon Pat Barwick 

was inducted into the 

Sporting Legends 

of Canterbury at the 

Canterbury Sports 

Awards on March 9. 

She talks to reporter 

Sarla Donovan about 

missing out on Moscow, 

developments in 

women’s sport, and 

impending retirement 

It must have been a proud 

moment to be named a 

Sporting Legend? 

Yes, it was humbling and a 

lovely surprise. And fabulous 

that they had some of my family 

down. I didn’t know anything 

about it until I walked into 

the room on Friday night and 

saw my family. Then I knew 

something was happening. My 

older sister and her hubby came 

down from Auckland and my 

younger sister from the family 

farm in the north of Wanganui. 

They stayed for the weekend 

so we had a nice long 

celebration. 

When did you first pick up a 

hockey stick? 

Not until I was just turning 

14. I was in a country school 

where we only played rugby 

and netball. We had to do both 

because we didn’t have enough 

boys so we played everything. 

There were only 32 at the school 

when I was there, that was at 

Brunswick School in Wanganui. 

So I didn’t really even know 

what hockey was. I got involved 

with it at high school and it 

wasn’t until my second year at 

Whanganui Girls’ College that I 

was allowed to give up netball. 

I could have stopped half-way 

through the year but my mum 

– quite rightly so – made me 

support my team until I finished 

the season. The next year I was 

allowed to play hockey and I 

loved it and within a couple of 

years I was doing reasonably 

well and continued on. 

What are some of the 

CAUSAL GARDENER: Pat Barwick, Sporting Legend of Canterbury, enjoys being in the garden. 

proudest moments in your 

career? 

Playing-wise getting into the 

national side and captaining it 

for most of my playing career. 

I remember the match where 

we beat England at Wembley 

Stadium in 1977 in front of 

63,000 people. That was a bit of 

a mindblower. Being selected 

for the 1980 Moscow Olympics 

– though, unfortunately, we 

didn’t go in the end. From a 

coaching perspective, I had a 

pretty successful time taking the 

Canterbury women to a number 

of titles and then going on to 

coach the national team. That 

was a real honour and I really 

enjoyed the opportunity that I 

was given. 

What was it like finding 

out you wouldn’t be going to 

Moscow? 

Well it was three weeks before 

we were due to leave so it was 

pretty gut-wrenching. We had 

all the uniforms, all the plans, 

everything was ready to go 

and then suddenly we weren’t 

going anywhere. It was a pretty 

sad time for most athletes and 

people were pretty upset. I 

didn’t remain bitter about it in 

later years though some did. I 

had the chance to go back as 

a coach in Barcelona in 1992 

so at least I got to an Olympic 

Games but it is different going 

as a support person rather than 

an athlete – you’re never quite 

an Olympian unless you’re an 

athlete there. 

Hockey looks like quite a 

fierce game – what qualities do 

you need? 

In the past it was a game that 

could be played by anyone, any 

height, any mobility. But nowadays 

on the turf it’s become very 

quick so speed is an important 

factor. But it’s not the only 

thing; you have to have a desire 

to learn the skills pretty thoroughly 

to be successful because 

it is quite a technical game. It’s 

demanding when you’re learning 

but once you get into it I think 

it is a great game in that anyone 

can score a goal, anyone can be 

part of the whole game – there’s 

not too much quiet time so 

you’re always involved and that 

makes it pleasurable to most 

people. 

What do you get up to when 

you’re not playing/coaching 

sport? 

I like to be active so I ride my 

bike, I play some golf and I’ve 

always played a bit of croquet. 

I enjoy the garden, I have a big 


‘casual garden’ as I call it so 

there’s always plenty to do there. 

Other than that I’ve always 

enjoyed supporting Forest and 

Bird and am looking to help 

somewhere on a project with 

them, now that I have a bit of 

time. 

Sporting-wise, Canterbury 

seems to bat above its weight. 

What do you put that down to? 

There’s still a lot of awareness 

and interest in sport here – 

the red and black culture is 

still strong. We’re not a huge, 

million-plus city so we still have 

a community feel and I think 

when you have that there’s a lot 

more cross-code interaction and 

support for each others’ sport as 

well as the people involved. 

I think that sheer interest in 

each other is still very strong 

here.

sporting legend 

I hear the Black Ferns are 

getting professional contracts. 

Do you feel we’re at a bit of 

a turning point in women’s 

sport? 

Definitely, we always knew it 

was about to happen. Women 

are the area of sport that are 

now making a huge leap in their 

performances. The change in 

their ability to play more fulltime, 

to show that they can 

advance their own sport a lot 

further than previously. Giving 

them (financial) support is 

important as it enables them to 

play at a higher level for longer. 

In doing that it means you 

get really good performances 

because they’re becoming more 

experienced, they’re becoming 

more capable, they’re fitter, 

faster, and can develop those 

characteristics that you need. 

You’re seeing a really great move 

right now in the development 

of the whole women’s sports 

field right across the spectrum 

and we’ll continue to do that for 

another eight or 10 years until 

we get to the top of it. 

So how much longer before 

there’s an equal playing field? 

Equal playing field only ever 

means money and in the end 

it’s about money through the 

gate. Until women are able to 

attract the same crowds to their 

games as the men it’s difficult 

to look at the balance of funds 

and I understand that. But it 

still means for the next eight 

to 10 years women need to be 

given support to achieve that. 

And unless that happens they 

probably won’t ever achieve 

it. I think the nature of the 

games have become really 

well-developed in the sense 

that the skill level, the physical 

capabilities and the athleticism 

of women now is certainly 

making it more attractive to a 

wider public to watch. So maybe 

we’ll increase the gates and 

they’ll increase the balance of 

pay. That’s how it works. But to 

me it’s more about how women 

can be successful – that’s the 

exciting part. The other part, the 

professionalism is another whole 

LEGEND: Pat Barwick captained the New Zealand hockey 

team for nine years from 1971-79. During her tenure, the 

team controversially finished third at the 1975 World Cup in 

Edinburgh against England as reported in The Press. Two years 

later, she captained New Zealand to victory over England at 

Wembley Stadium before 63,000 spectators. 

cog in the wheel. 

You captained NZ in your 

first ever match, how did that 

happen and what was it like? 

It was pretty interesting. I had 

captained one team – the NZ 

Universities side for a couple 

of matches against Australia 

a few years before. But other 

than that I’d never been a club 

team captain or a Canterbury 

or Hawkes Bay captain. So it 

was a bit of a mind-blower. I 

think a lot of it was to do with 

the fact I was the centre half 

and when you play in the centre 

of the paddock you’re fairly 

well connected with everybody 

across the pitch. At the time 

there were still players in the 

team that had been away on 

previous internationals so I 

was quite surprised because 

they were more experienced 

and good people. I think it was 

a positional issue but maybe I 

showed a bit more leadership 

quality then than I realised. 

When did you go from 

playing to coaching? 

I retired from the national 

team in 1980 – that was the year 

we didn’t go to the Olympics 

and I pretty much retired 

straight away. I was still playing 

for the Canterbury team and 

they asked me to be a player 

coach which was unusual at that 

level but I did it with the help 

of a manager-coach. So I got 

into that level pretty quickly. I 

had about six good years with 

Canterbury hockey and then I 

was able to put my name in the 

hat for the national side. 

Do you see us being world 

champions any time soon? 

We’ve been in the top four 

in the last two Olympic Games 

and that’s massive. They’re 

a top team and they’ve been 

performing extremely well over 

the last few years. Getting in the 

top four in the world in hockey 

is up there and to do it twice 

in a row that’s been quite an 

achievement. 

Do you think the funding for 

NZ Hockey is adequate? 

I think we’re pretty well 

supported by high performance 

funding and other agencies. 

We have a good foundation 

that supports the players and 

the teams when they have 

to centralise in Auckland. 

Our people are centralised in 

Auckland, and they train as 

much as they can – probably 

not quite as much as a fully paid 

athlete but they’re still getting 

a lot of training. I think we’re 

doing about as well as we can 

expect at the moment. Certainly 

funding is pretty generous on 

New Zealand terms, we don’t 

have all the money in the world, 

we’re a small country and can’t 

support everything. 

I hear you’re retiring from 

your coaching adviser role at 

Sport Canterbury? 

I’m having my farewell this 

afternoon actually, I’m finishing 

up today. I’ve had twelve and a 

half years here so it’s been one 

of my longer terms of work 

through my life. It’s a really 

enjoyable environment; lots 

of passionate people doing 

things to help other passionate 

people. It’s a great environment 

of positivity to walk into every 

morning so it makes work easy. 

I’ll miss the people. I’m a people 

person and enjoy watching them 

grow and develop and learn. It’s 

the teacher in me as well as the 

coach. So personally I will miss 

those regular contacts but I’ll be 

out doing things. 

So what’s the plan this 

afternoon? 

We’re wrapping up the week 

with a bit of a party after work 

and I’m going to have a bit of 

fun for a few hours so that will 

be really nice, a nice casual 

send-off.

Natives will grow well in a small plot 


• By Henri Ham 

NOW’S THE time to plant 

natives. 

Many people think natives can 

only be grown when you have lots 

of space. But there are lots of low 

growing native plants that look 

lovely in a smaller garden – like 

pūrei (carex), hibiscus and hebe. 

Other native plants like kōhūhū 

(pittosporum tenuifoliam) and 

akeake can make lovely shelter 

belts or hedges. 

And I’ve even planted a couple 

of tī kouka (cabbage tree) and 

kānuka plants into pots and 

placed them at the entrance of my 

house. The pots have restricted 

the roots of the trees and in a way 

created a ‘bonsai’ effect so they 

don’t grow very tall. They’re about 

1.8m tall at the moment. The bees 

love the kānuka, which is great for 

pollinating my nearby vegetable 

garden. 

If you’re thinking about planting 

natives, or adding to your existing 

native garden, I suggest getting 

on to it now. We’re officially 

into autumn and the weather has 

cooled off but isn’t too wet, which 

makes it the perfect time to plant 

trees and shrubs. And while most 

of the natives are very hardy, it’s 

good to get them in the ground 

and established before the frosts 

kick in. 

Once you’ve got your plants, 

dig a hole and bury each plant to 

the top of its root ball. Then water 

in gently. If you don’t get any rain 

after planting, I suggest watering 

every two or three days. 

It’s also a good idea to keep the 

immediate area surrounding the 

plants weed free for a while as the 

plants won’t be able to outgrow 

any weeds at this early stage of 

their life. 

Natives are a long-term investment 

in your garden and depending 

on the variety you grow could 

take between months and years to 

become fully grown. But they’re 

well worth the wait. 

HIDING PLACE: CarexGreen is

Perfect perpetual spinach 

• By Henri Ham 

DID YOU know perpetual spinach isn’t 

even spinach? 

In fact, it’s actually related to silver beet 

and is sometimes also called ‘leaf beet’. 

Though if I had to describe how it tastes, 

I’d say it tastes similar to spinach but with 

a slightly milder, more bitter taste. 

But the main reasons I think perpetual 

spinach is a perfect plant to have in the 

vegetable garden, are because it grows 

quickly, it doesn’t take up much space, 

it’s full of vitamins (like its namesake and 

relative) and it’s very easy 

care. 

If you’re planting 

members of the brassica 

family this autumn – like 

cabbage, cauliflower or 

broccoli – your perpetual 

spinach seedlings could 

be planted around 20cm 

apart from each other in the rows in 

between. 

Because they don’t take up much space 

and mature quickly, you’ll have eaten them 

before your slow-developing brassicas 

need the room. 

Regardless of where you plant them, it 

pays to mix in some general fertiliser and/ 

or compost into the soil first to give them 

a good kick start and ensure the soil is 

well-drained. If you don’t have much space 

you can easily grow it in pots – just put in 

some fresh potting mix before planting. 

In around four to six weeks the leaves 

on your perpetual spinach will be large 

enough to harvest. I recommend picking 

the outer leaves first, leaving the inner 

leaves intact so the plant keeps producing. 

I like to use the small leaves in salads 

and use the larger leaves (with a slightly 

more bitter taste) like I would spinach or 

silver beet. 

EASY CARE: Perpetual spinach grows 

quickly and tastes great in salads.

• By Ross Kiddie 

MITSUBISHI Motors New 

Zealand has initiated a 

solid marketing campaign 

for its new sport utility 

vehicle, the Eclipse Cross. 

That doesn’t surprise me, 

the newcomer is a smart 

piece of kit and it deserves 

to command a big slice of 

the mid-size SUV market. 

However, it must 

be remembered that 

Mitsubishi here has 

another mid-size SUV 

contender – the ASX – 

and it has been heavily 

facelifted for 2018. 

Meaning active smart 

crossover, the ASX was 

introduced to New Zealand 

in 2011 and has also been 

a popular seller, its concept 

appeals to family buyers at 

a value-based entry point 

as well, the new series 

tempts from just under 

$30k. 

There are four models 

in the ASX line-up, two 

petrol and two diesel, the 

latter in four-wheel-drive. 

This evaluation focuses on 

the entry-level two-wheeldrive 

XLS at $29,990; an 

extra $10,600 will get you 

into a high-spec VRX, 

while the two 2.3-litre diesel 

models list at $41,990 

and $45,990 respectively. 

While I’d far prefer the 

diesel, the carryover 2-litre 

petrol engine is still a fine 

unit, it is the same engine 

which has powered Lancer 

through the years. 

The 1998cc unit develops 

112kW and 200Nm, 

and is paired to a six-step 

continuously variable automatic 

transmission and 

drives through to the front 

wheels. These power and 

torque outputs are traditional, 

they arrive tall in 

the rev band at 6000rpm 

and 4200rpm respectively; 

nevertheless, when you 

have the benefit of CVT 

there is a constant point 

of gearing which instantly 

meets throttle request. 

The ASX feels lively and 

will cut out a standstill to 

100km/h time in 9.9sec, it’s 

also quite smart on a highway 

overtake, 6sec to make 

120km/h from 80km/h is 

about the norm for a vehicle 

such as this. 

I took the test car inland 

to Hororata and back 

to my home through 

Dunsandel and Coes Ford. 

It cruises quietly at highway 

speed and affords a 

smooth ride. Sprung on 

a fully independent front 

strut/rear multiple link 

system, the suspension’s 

mechanical elements have 

been developed without 

compromising the ASX’s 

function. 

Body movement is 

controlled without the 

firming needed to arrest 

gravitational force. Instead, 

the ASX has spring and 

damper rates engineered 

so that the occupants reap 

a comfortable ride without 

being presented with a 

lurch mid-corner. 

• Price – Mitsubishi 

ASX XLS, $29,990 

• Dimensions – 

Length, 4365mm; 

width, 1810mm; 

height, 1640mm 

• Configuration – 

Four-cylinder, frontwheel-drive, 

1998cc, 

112kW, 200Nm, 

continuously variable 

automatic 

• Performance – 

0-100km/h, 9.9sec 

• Fuel usage – 

7.6l/100km 

The ASX is fitted with 

tall 18in wheels, and shod 

with quality Bridgestone 

Dueler rubber (225/55), 

there is strong steering 

feel and plenty of grip on 

offer. 

I pointed the test car at 

some tricky corners along 

my test route, it turns nicely 

and feeds to the steering 

wheel positive information 

as to how the tyres react 

under pressure. 

Even without four-wheeldrive 

there is still the feel 

that grip levels are elevated, 

while balance and control 

are fully retained. I like the 

way the ASX drives, it’s no 

MITSUBISHI ASX: 

Choice of petrol or 

diesel engines. 

sports car but it does have 

performance and handling 

ability which is far in 

excess of its purpose. 

Although the XLS misses 

out on leather trim and 

a few other niceties, it 

still gets a healthy level of 

specification, and fabric 

trim is by far my preference. 

Mitsubishi has upped 

the specification level in 

the ASX; although most of 

those additions are hidden, 

they are electronic inclusions 

for safety and infotainment. 

In terms of fuel use, 

Mitsubishi has done well 

to lean out the engine. As 

I remarked previously, it 

has been around for some 

time, but it is a fuel miser 

and carries a 7.6-litre per 

100km (37mpg) combined 

cycle claim. 

This is much the same 

figure as the previous 

generation model and 

although I didn’t replicate 

it, I did get close. The 

fuel usage readout was 

constantly listing around 

8.1l/100km (35mpg) 

during my time with the 

test car, and I can report 

a 5l/100km (56mpg) 

instantaneous figure sitting 

at a steady 100km/h. At 

that speed the engine is 

working over at a lazy 

1700rpm in the tallest part 

of the gearing. 

Mitsubishi Motors 

New Zealand is the 

only new car company 

operating here which 

offers a 10-year/160,000km 

powertrain warranty across 

its entire range. 

To me that says a lot 

about the quality of the 

product, and if you look 

at how long the Lancer, 

Outlander and ASX have 

been available in our market, 

that suggests they have 

not only been well received 

but have been built to last 

the distance.

WEST COAST 

Shantytown Heritage Park 

FRISKY: A bottlenose dolphin escorts a cruise boat in the Marlborough Sounds. 

Right – The hand carved pou whenua at Ship Cove. 

Plenty to do in Picton 

• By Mike Yardley 

CHARMING: Furneaux Lodge offers a laid-back 

hospitality experience. 

THEY WERE frisky, 

playful and shameless 

attention-seekers. Your 

typical teenagers. 

A large pod of juvenile 

bottlenose dolphins 

turned on quite the show, 

as we purred through the 

Marlborough Sounds on a 

Beachcomber cruise boat. 

The frolicking dolphins 

basked in the boat’s wake, 

before unleashing their 

acrobatic impulses, leaping 

out of the water and flying 

through the air like trained 

circus-performers. 

Picton had dawned bright 

and brilliant. The glossy 

deep blue water surrounding 

Picton Marina, gleamed 

photo-shoot perfect. In a 

town that I have previously 

accused of resting on its 

laurels, Picton seems to 

have really hits its straps as 

a premium destination. 

The place was buzzing. I 

was joining a day trip into 

Queen Charlotte Sound 

with one of the region’s 

oldest tourist operators, 

Beachcomber Cruises, who 

offer myriad tours including 

their iconic rural post 

delivery service, The Magic 

Mail Run. 

Keen to combine cruising 

with a spot of walking, 

my magical day out would 

whisk me to Ship Cove, 

before re-boarding the vessel 

for the home-run from 

Furneaux Lodge. Departing 

from Picton, my ebullient 

skipper, Steve, peppered the 

cruise commentary with a 

feast of fascinating insights. 

Brimming with predatorfree 

islands and marine 

reserves, ogling precious 

wildlife is an undisputed 

magnet, luring the world to 

their crystal-clear waters. 

Steve remarked that alongside 

the hector’s, dusky and 

bottlenose dolphins, whales 

are a constant sight in the 

Sounds. As are seals, stingrays 

and orcas. 

We rendezvoused with 

some salmon farms, heavily 

fortified in perimeter 

fencing to stop the fur seals 

doing a drive-by feed. The 

sheer size of the Sounds is 

astonishing, comprising 

20 per cent of New Zealand’s 

coastline, brimming 

with countless coves and 

secluded sandy bays. Thick 

native bush surrounds these 

ancient sunken valleys, 

where the calm, translucent 

water spans azure blue, 

vivid turquoise and shimmering 

emerald hues. 

Disembarking from our 

boat, I dabbled in the creek 

where Cook made home 

brew for his crew before 

surveying the magnificent 

Captain Cook monument 

commemorating his repeat 

visits to the area. 

Remarkably, one of the 

original cannons from 

Endeavour, adorns the 

monument. The cannon 

was salvaged from North 

Queensland, after the 

Endeavour ran aground 

on a reef and the crew 

had to throw numerous 

equipment overboard, to 

free the ship. A gorgeous 

carved pou whenua (pole) 

was installed at Ship Cove 

12 years ago, illustrating 

the legend of Kupe and the 

giant octopus he chased in 

these waters. Lacing up my 

walking boots, I struck out 

for a taster of the Queen 

Charlotte Track. 

The full traverse from 

Ship Cove to Anakiwa is a 

three or four-day affair, but 

itching for a sample of this 

celebrated trek, I embarked 

on the first day’s section to 

Furneaux Lodge. 

The lookout point at 

Tawa Saddle serves up seraphic 

views across Queen 

Charlotte Sound, while pixel-burning 

vantage points 

loom large as your descend 

into Resolution Bay. In the 

higher reaches of the track, 

the elevated views serve up 

mouth-watering glimpses 

of some of New Zealand’s 

most remote holiday 

homes, glorious little escape 

pads of supreme seclusion. 

From Resolution Bay, 

the final stretch followed 

a well-graded old bridle 

path over a ridge and into 

Endeavour Inlet. An unexpected 

surprise was the 

short detour to ogle one of 

New Zealand’s largest and 

oldest trees. 

A 1000-year-old rimu, in 

Howden Forest. A viewing 

boardwalk was recently 

built around the tree to 

safeguard its ancient roots. 

What a stunning specimen 

it is. I toddled across the 

finish line with a flourish, 

sweetly surrendering to the 

laid-back hospitality embrace 

of Furneaux Lodge. 

Built by the Howden family 

110 years ago, the original 

homestead was thronging 

with thirsty patrons, 

chilling out and swapping 

tales, before boarding the 

boat at 5pm for the return 

run to Picton, as another 

pod of frisky dolphins 

shepherded us home.

a one-game ban. 

In Johnson’s absence, Mason

in the 30-6 win, but returns to 

an expanded interchange.

In Brief 

DUNN STABLE FINED $14K 

The Robert Dunn Harness Racing 

Stable has been fined $14,000 after 

three horses returned positive 

tests to the banned substance 

caffeine. Robert Dunn was fined 

$7000, while his son John, who 

manages the Woodend Beach 

stable and was in charge of 

the horses that tested positive, 

was fined $7000. The Racing 

Integrity Unit did not charge 

the Dunns until February after 

an investigation lasting eight 

months following a meet in 

Nelson. Robert Dunn initially 

claimed the horses were ‘nobbled’. 

However, no evidence was found 

to support this and they pleaded 

guilty to presenting a horse with a 

prohibited substance. 

KART RACE CONTROVERSY 

Controversy has marred a 

tight-fought race between two 

junior Christchurch racers at the 

KartSport New Zealand national 

sprint championships in Rotorua. 

On Sunday, Jacob Douglas 

crossed the line first to retain the 

Vortex Mini ROK class title he 

won last year. But he was disqualified 

following a protest by fellow 

Christchurch driver Louis Sharpe, 

who was promoted from second 

to win the title. The result remains 

provisional subject to an appeal by 

Douglas’ team. 

Christie to lead NZ from front 

• By Gordon FIndlater 

PROMISING LOOSE forward 

Tom Christie has vowed to lead 

from the front at the Oceania 

rugby under-20 championship 

on the Gold Coast. 

The Christchurch club man 

and former Shirley Boys’ High 

School first XV captain will 

skipper New Zealand at the 

Gold Coast tournament. 

“To be given a leadership role 

is an honour,” said Christie. 

“I pride myself on leadership 

qualities. It’s something that 

helps you perform I find. For 

me my performance is my 

No 1 goal, but being given a 

leadership role emphasises the 

need to perform for me.” 

The squad will assemble in 

Auckland on April 21 before 

departing for the Gold Coast. 

Canterbury players Ngane 

Punivai, Will Tucker and 

former Christchurch Boys’ High 

outside back Will Jordan are

New Zealand will play against 

Tonga, Fiji and Australia. The 

team will be looking to claim 

their fifth title in as many years. 

Members of the squad will be 

pushing their case for selection 

in the world championship next 

month in France. 


LEADER: Former Shirley Boys’ High School captain Tom 

Christie will lead New Zealand at the Oceania rugby 

under-20 championship on the Gold Coast. 

Christie has Mitre 10 Cup 

experience with Canterbury and 

spent time with the Crusaders 

during the pre-season.

Canty bowlers 

aim for gold 

• By Gordon FIndlater 

IT WILL be an all-Canterbury 

affair for one team with medal 

aspirations at the Gold Coast 

Commonwealth Games. 

The Blackjacks women’s triples 

team of Mandy Boyd, Katherine 

Inch and Tayla Bruce know 

they will have the weight of the 

nation on them when triples section 

play starts on Monday. 

However, when they bowl for 

gold, they’ll also be doing it with 

red and black pride, all hailing 

from Canterbury. 

“For me, I’m really honoured 

to be able to represent New 

Zealand alongside such great 

friends. The experience has been 

incredible so far and we can only 

hope to try our best to come 

back with medals around our 

necks,” said Bruce. 

It is Bruce and Inch’s first 

Commonwealth Games. Boyd 

was part of the women’s four 

which won bronze in Glasgow 

and was part of the Canterbury 

women’s team which won the 

national inter-centre title last 

month. The trio are all part 

of the NZ fours team to start 

section play today. They will be 

joined in the four by Australianbased 

Nelson bowler Val Smith.

TOMORROW NIGHT’S match 

between the Hurricanes and the 

Sharks in Napier will be the last 

match at McLean Park before the 

excavators move in to rebuild the 

oval. 

Nominally a home match 

for the Hurricanes, it is the last 

match at McLean Park before 

it gets a new drainage system, a 

drop-in cricket block and a new 

hybrid turf. 

The Hurricanes travelled 

to Melbourne over Easter to 

hammer hosts and surprise early 

competition leaders the Rebels 

50-19, while the Natal-based 

Sharks walloped the hapless 

Blues 63-40 in Auckland. 

The Hurricanes scored seven 

tries and the Sharks six, pointing 

to the likelihood of try-fest in 

Napier similar to the highly 

entertaining last two Hurricanes 

matches at the park – a 56-21 

win over the Brumbies last 

year and a 56-20 win over the 

Highlanders in 2015. 

With the Rebels on a bye this 

week, a win for the Hurricanes 

will put them into the 

competition lead. 

They have overtaken the 

Crusaders as TAB favourites to 

win the competition, and are hot 

favourites to win on Friday. 

With fine weather forecast 

during Friday and a mild night 

with a light wind, the Hawkes 

Bay Rugby Union is hoping that, 

with covered seating almost sold 

out, the match will fill the Morris 

St embankment, and create 

possibly the biggest crowd for 

any sports event in Hawkes Bay 

this year. 

Last month Hawkes Bay 

Rugby Union chief executive 

Jay Campbell said sales for the 

match were more than 1000 up 

in comparison with the build-up 

to last year’s clash between the 

Hurricanes and Brumbies. He 

said such high-scoring matches 

attracted the public and were 

well remembered. “I think the

NEW LISTINGS 

Five tips for renovators 

Building or renovating a home to take you 

through the generations can be challenging. 

Before you start, here are five things you 

should think about: 

1. Creating flexible living spaces. 

How will your family’s use of living spaces 

change over the coming years? Are the 

living spaces big enough to cater to an older 

or extended family? 

2. Slashing your energy bills. 

With energy costs on the rise, thinking 

about sustainable design minimises the 

impact on the environment and your 

monthly power bill. 

3. Creating outdoor living spaces. 

People renovating often add a lower level 

or build on top. Both options allow you to 

create a linkage to an outdoor setting which 

can be designed as an extra “living room”. 

Ensure the landscape design is linked in 

with the overall design for the renovation. 

4. Future-proofing for new 

technologies. 

You can future proof your home by 

designing in smart cabling systems that 

act as conduits for future technologies 

such as internet over the TV. 

5. Family considerations. 

Think about extending bedrooms 

and having living spaces for study. 

Also, factor in bedroom size: children 

might be happy in single beds when 

they are young, but there will come a 

time when they want a double bed and 

extra space that goes with it. 

Autumn’s here... 

clear the gutters 

and keep them clean 

Before clearing the gutter of any debris, it’s 

best to securely block off the tops of any 

downpipes with a large rag or old towel. 

This prevents any of the collected sludge 

being washed down and potential causing 

a blocking. Beginning at one end, carefully 

scoop out any leaves and sludge (either with 

a purpose made gutter scoop or small plastic 

trowel) and deposit the debris in a bucket. 

Work your way along the length of each 

section of guttering, emptying the bucket 

as necessary. Once the guttering is clear of 

mess, remove the rag or towel and sluice 

the gutter with clean water, scrubbing (if 

necessary) with a stiff-bristled brush. 

Once you’re satisfied the inside of the gutter 

is clear and clean, use a preparatory house 

or paint wash (diluted with warm water to 

the recommended ratio) to carefully scrub 

the guttering and downpipes with a brush, 

rinsing off any soapy residue with clean 

water. For any really stubborn or unsightly 

areas of mould, consider using a preparatory 

moss and mould killer. While up the ladder, 

do a routine check on the condition of the 

guttering, ensuring that water runs away 

freely and there are no splits, gaps in the 

joints or broken brackets along each section. 

Check also along the edge of the roof for any 

potential maintenance issues as now is the 

time to address any signs of rust or other 

damage. 

BLOCKED DRAINPIPES 

Should the water not flow freely along the 

guttering and exit via the downpipe, it 

may be there’s a blockage in the downpipe 

that will need clearing. Begin by carefully 

feeding a garden hose down the top of 

the drainpipe until it stops; then turn it on 

full. This may be enough to dislodge the 

blockage. Failing that, consider using a 

length of strong wire or a thin rod to shift 

the compacted debris. For truly stubborn 

blockages, it may be necessary to remove 

the downpipe completely. Beginning at the 

bottom of the pipe, unscrew each bracket 

and carefully remove the downpipe (or each 

section, as necessary) and free the inside of 

any blockage with a piece of garden stake 

(or strong bamboo). sluice the pipe out 

with running water. In extreme cases it may 

be necessary to use a water blaster. Once 

unblocked, replace the pipe, screwing back 

the brackets in reverse order. 

PREVENTION 

Prevention is better than cure so consider 

placing plastic netting or mesh over 

guttering to act as a filter and stop leaves 

and other large debris causing a problem. 

There are also a number of other custommade 

gutter products on the market 

including brush-like ‘whiskers’ and other 

‘gutter guards’. Remember, however, that 

even with these gutter protectors you’ll 

still need to check your guttering system 

annually to ensure run-off flows freely. Small 

particles of dust and dirt can still accumulate 

underneath any gutter protector causing 

a build-up of sludge, and inhibiting water 

flow, both of which can lead to potential 

damage. If in doubt, seek advice from your 

building professional. 

TOP TIPS 

Instead of blocking downpipes with a 

rag or towel, consider installing a water 

diverter on each. This purpose made device 

is simple to fit and readily diverts debris 

from the downpipe by way of a plastic flap. 

When not being used, the flap is clicked the 

other way, and water will flow normally 

through the pipe and into the drain.
