Have your say on Redcliffs<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
A PUBLIC drop-in session<br />
today will give people the chance<br />
to comment on plans for the<br />
Redcliffs village enhancement<br />
project.<br />
The project is now in the<br />
design phase and has three main<br />
focus areas: Safety improvements<br />
on Main Rd, creating a userfriendly<br />
environment within<br />
the village and upgrading the<br />
Moncks <strong>Bay</strong> car parking area.<br />
Redcliffs Residents Association<br />
member Peter Croft said it<br />
was important that people got<br />
involved and made submissions<br />
on the plans.<br />
“We want to say (to the city<br />
council) yes, we’ve been waiting<br />
now for a long time, we’ve<br />
been very badly affected by<br />
the earthquakes, we’ve had our<br />
school taken from us and now<br />
it’s our turn,” he said.<br />
“We want the upgrading and<br />
beautification of the shopping<br />
centre. The city council talk<br />
about Redcliffs being a corridor<br />
on the way to Sumner but<br />
we’re saying to them we are a<br />
destination in our own right.”<br />
Streetscape enhancements<br />
shown in the city council’s<br />
concept plans include extending<br />
the pavement outwards at<br />
the Beachville Rd/Main Rd<br />
intersection.<br />
This would create space for<br />
seating and cycle parking to<br />
encourage Coastal Pathway<br />
users to stop and visit, the plan<br />
suggests.<br />
Trees could be planted to<br />
TIMELY: Peter Croft from the Redcliffs Residents Association holds a copy of plans for the village enhancement.<br />
provide shade and the footpath<br />
area from the butcher down to<br />
the fish and chip shop building<br />
paved, to unify the village centre.<br />
Further along, on the south<br />
side of Moncks <strong>Bay</strong> about 200m<br />
east of the Christchurch Yacht<br />
Club, plans show an upgraded,<br />
20-space car park and a nearby<br />
pedestrian island for Main Rd.<br />
The enhancement project<br />
is part of the Main Rd Master<br />
Plan, adopted by the city council<br />
in 2014 with the purpose of<br />
improving the safety and overall<br />
look of the commercial centres<br />
and activity points along the<br />
route.<br />
Some changes have already<br />
been made during SCIRT<br />
repairs and as part of progress<br />
on the Coastal Pathway,<br />
including the traffic signals on<br />
Augusta St.<br />

Urumau Reserve plan on hold<br />
Community<br />
board seeks<br />
more detail<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
AN UPDATED development<br />
plan for Lyttelton’s Urumau<br />
Reserve has been put on hold.<br />
The Banks Peninsula<br />
Community Board rejected<br />
the city council staff<br />
recommendation to adopt the<br />
plan at a special meeting on<br />
Monday.<br />
Board<br />
chairwoman<br />
Pam Richardson<br />
said it wanted<br />
more background<br />
information on<br />
the work that<br />
Pam<br />
Richardson<br />
has been done<br />
on tracks, trails<br />
and other areas of<br />
development in the reserve.<br />
She would not specify what<br />
type of information the board<br />
is seeking, saying only that it<br />
needed “further clarification” on<br />
some issues.<br />
“All the work that’s been done<br />
in the reserve, we just wanted a<br />
bit more background on it.”<br />
The aim of the development<br />
plan, originally created in 2008,<br />
was to increase public access<br />
and use of the reserve, control<br />
pests and weeds, and enhance<br />
the township’s natural landscape<br />
and birdlife.<br />
Developments in the 10 years<br />
since then have included new<br />
mountain bike tracks, steps<br />
and signage, native plant revegetation,<br />
weed control and a<br />
developing pest management<br />
strategy.<br />
Ms Richardson said the<br />
board had raised a number of<br />
questions with city council staff<br />
Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi<br />
over historical development in<br />
the reserve, and it was now a<br />
matter of waiting for them to<br />
come back with answers.<br />
The plan would be approved<br />
when the board members had<br />
“enough information,” she said.<br />
There is no timeframe in place<br />
at the moment, Ms Richardson<br />
said, and “it might take some<br />
time to work through.”<br />
A city council report on<br />
the proposed plan said it had<br />
attracted an “unexpected” level<br />
of public interest, with 625<br />

submissions – 176 from the<br />
Lyttelton area.<br />
Four hundred and seventy<br />
three submissions supported the<br />
plan, 98 had concerns and 54<br />
did not support the plan.<br />
Key concerns raised included<br />
privacy, parking and traffic<br />
issues for neighbouring<br />
residents; environmental<br />
damage; limited access<br />
points; shared and unauthorised<br />
paths and general opposition<br />
to mountain biking in the<br />

Cob Cottage repairs get<br />
green light from council<br />
HISTORIC PENFOLD’S Cob<br />
Cottage will be repaired.<br />
The city council has approved<br />
the project to repair the<br />
earthquake-damaged 19thcentury<br />
cottage.<br />
Work will include stabilising<br />
the remaining heritage fabric.<br />
Some badly-damaged sections<br />
will be encased in glass to<br />
provide protection.<br />
“We are moving quickly to<br />
protect this landmark cottage<br />
and preserve our past,” city<br />
council head of parks Brent<br />
Smith said.<br />
“With this approach, we can<br />
retain some of the cottage’s<br />
original sod and cob fabric and<br />
keep the site’s history alive.”<br />
He said it would showcase the<br />
simplicity and workmanship of<br />
the early European settler homes.<br />
“Securing a window to the<br />
early days of our city.”<br />
A cob trail and stronger links<br />
with Ferrymead Heritage Park<br />
have also been proposed for the<br />
cottage.<br />
Built in <strong>18</strong>62 by Captain James<br />
Penfold, the cottage in Scott<br />
Park, Ferrymead, provides a<br />
tangible link to local history.<br />
Captain Penfold was master<br />
REPAIRS: A project to restore the quake-damaged Cob<br />
Cottage has been approved by the city council.<br />

between New Zealand and<br />
Australia until the schooner ran<br />

<strong>18</strong>62.<br />
He left the sea for a working<br />
life on the railways after helping<br />
to bring over the first sleepers<br />
for the construction of the<br />
Ferrymead-Christchurch railway<br />
line.<br />
Following Captain Penfold’s<br />
departure from the area,<br />
migrants lived in the cottage<br />
from the late <strong>18</strong>70s until 1908.<br />
It then fell into disrepair, but<br />
was rebuilt in the 1940s, using<br />

OLD SCHOOL:<br />
The band<br />
during<br />
marching<br />
practice with<br />
new silver<br />
instruments in<br />
1951.<br />
Band seeks new blood<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
ONE OF the oldest brass bands<br />
in Canterbury is on the hunt for<br />
new blood.<br />
The Sumner Brass Band<br />
started in the <strong>18</strong>80s and played<br />
together until World War 2.<br />
In 1950, a public meeting<br />
decided the district should once<br />
again have a brass band of its<br />
own. The Sumner Silver Band<br />
was born under bandmaster<br />
G.F. Sauer (the father of John<br />
Sauer who retired from playing<br />
cornet at the end of last year).<br />
Sumner has had its silver band<br />
on and off ever since.<br />
Peter Croft has played with<br />
them for the past <strong>18</strong> years. He<br />
said the reason for the name<br />
change could be because<br />
initially brass was cheaper than<br />
silver plated – but they were now<br />
about the same.<br />
“Maybe brass was working<br />
class and silver sounded better.<br />
When new instruments were<br />
supplied in 1950 they were silver.”<br />
The band meets for practice<br />
once a week on Thursday evenings,<br />
7.30-9pm, at the Redcliffs<br />
Mt Pleasant Bowling Club.<br />
It’s comprised of a range of<br />
people from all ages including<br />
primary school pupils right<br />
up to those “one step from the<br />
morgue,” said Mr Croft.<br />
Over the past year, the band<br />
has performed at school fairs,<br />
community concerts, and the<br />
city council’s Summertime<br />
Festival.<br />
Upcoming events include the<br />
Anzac service for the Sumner/<br />
Redcliffs RSA and a combined<br />
concert with the Christchurch<br />
Pipe Band next month.<br />
The Sumner Silver Band also<br />
enters local and provincial competitions.<br />
Mr Croft said anyone<br />
able to read music and play a<br />
‘brass’ instrument is welcome<br />
to join.<br />

WORK ON the Lyttelton Tunnel<br />
safety upgrade will require up<br />
to 15 overnight tunnel closures<br />
from June onwards.<br />
The New Zealand Transport<br />
Agency say installation of a<br />
$28.7 million fire protection<br />
system is ramping up, with a<br />
planned December completion<br />
date on the horizon.<br />
Emergency services will have<br />
full access through the tunnel<br />
at all times and community and<br />
tunnel users will be given at least<br />
three weeks notice prior to the<br />
full closures, the NZTA said.<br />
The new deluge fire supression<br />
system is designed to contain<br />
a fire until emergency services<br />
reach the scene.<br />
A large reservoir is being built<br />
to supply water for the system.<br />
And some earthquake<br />
strengthening of the tunnel<br />
portal buildings will be carried<br />
out, along with communication<br />
equipment upgrades.<br />
These include a new public address<br />
system to broadcast safety<br />
instructions to tunnel users in<br />
an emergency.<br />
Construction has almost been<br />
completed on a pump house,<br />
and ground work for the water<br />
reservoir has started.<br />
Work is on track to with the<br />
laying a 200m long pipe to feed<br />
water from the reservoir to the<br />
pump house.<br />

Cave Rock<br />
goes vegan<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
SUMNER’S CAVE Rock Tavern<br />
is having a healthy makeover.<br />
Formerly known as The Thirsty<br />
Marriner, it will next month<br />
transform into a fully plantbased<br />
cafe/bar/restaurant called<br />
Auberge - a nod to the French<br />
inns which often transform from<br />
day to night, restaurant manager<br />
Naomi Darvill said.<br />
“They start as a cafe and<br />
throughout the day you work<br />
through a lunchtime menu and<br />
then in the evening it transforms<br />
into a folk-music-playing wine bar<br />
and locals hangout.”<br />
From 8am there’ll be smoothie<br />
bowls, healthy cabinet food and<br />
cooked breakfasts; burgers, pizzas<br />
and raw salads over lunch and<br />
into the evening bar snacks and<br />
seasonal blackboard specials<br />
complementing the lunch menu.<br />
“We’re going for seasonal,<br />
organic and locally sourced so<br />
the blackboard will be changeable<br />
every couple of days. We’ve got a<br />
couple of really creative chefs on<br />
board,” said Ms Darvill.<br />
They are also looking at being a<br />
live music venue and have booked<br />
a couple of local acts for May.<br />
Ms Darvill describes the look<br />
as funky and colourful with an<br />
eclectic botanical theme.<br />

Bid to return Maori<br />

OWNERSHIP OF a former Maori burial<br />
ground at Purau may be returned to local<br />
rūnanga.<br />
The 1011 sq m Purau Maori Reserve at<br />
177 Purau Ave, is currently owned by the<br />
city council, which is considering returning<br />
ownership to local rūnanga.<br />
The land has significance to Te<br />
Hapū o Ngāti Wheke.<br />
As the reserve is an urupā – a Ngāi<br />
Tahu burial ground – Ngāti Wheke<br />
has expressed a preference that it<br />
be managed by court-appointed<br />
Rāpaki trustees, who already have<br />
responsibility for three other urupā<br />
in Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong>.<br />
There have been ongoing discussions<br />
about returning ownership and<br />
management of the Pūrau urupā over the<br />
past century.<br />
The land currently has reserve status,<br />
and returning ownership to the rūnanga<br />
would involve removing this under the<br />
Reserves Act 1977.<br />

and vote on whether to start the process<br />
involved in revoking the reserve status of<br />
the land.<br />
This would include public notification<br />

to have a say on whether they support it<br />
or not and a hearing panel would<br />

making a recommendation to the<br />

revocation.<br />
Felix If the process to revoke the<br />
Dawson reserve status goes ahead, handover<br />
from the city council to Te Hapū o<br />

year.<br />

an important issue.<br />
“Given the significance of this piece of<br />
land to Te Hapū o Ngāti Wheke we believe<br />
it’s appropriate for the board and the<br />
community to give serious consideration<br />
to its return to local rūnanga.”<br />

Vicki Jerome – Haven’t<br />
seen any mozzies around here,<br />
even around the fishpond, but<br />
this summer, for the first time<br />
ever in our area, i have noticed<br />
sandflies. Early in summer, I<br />
was hanging out the washing<br />
on our rural property inside the<br />
volcanic rim of Banks Peninsula,<br />
just above Barrys <strong>Bay</strong>, when I<br />
noticed a sharp sensation around<br />
my ankle that reminded me<br />
of sandfly bites I’d only ever<br />
experienced before on the West<br />
Coast. Looking down, I saw that<br />
indeed, that’s what it was. After<br />
that, almost every time I hung<br />
washing out, I was attacked by<br />
one or more of the little horrors<br />
– I have to confess, I squashed<br />
them all, at least those I could<br />
catch in time.<br />

that New Zealand takes a very<br />

can all make a small change by<br />
firstly not littering and, secondly,<br />
by simply picking rubbish up<br />

THIS BOOK<br />
After her family suffers a tragedy, nine-year-old Alice Hart is forced to leave her idyllic<br />
seaside home. She is taken in by her grandmother, June, a flower farmer who raises<br />
Alice on the language of Australian native flowers, a way to say the things that are too<br />
hard to speak.<br />
Under the watchful eye of June and the women who run the farm, Alice settles, but<br />
grows up increasingly frustrated by how little she knows of her family’s story. In her<br />
early twenties, Alice’s life is thrown into upheaval again when she suffers devastating<br />
betrayal and loss. Desperate to outrun grief, Alice flees to the dramatically beautiful<br />
central Australian desert. In this otherworldly landscape Alice thinks she has found<br />
solace, until she meets a charismatic and ultimately dangerous man.<br />
Spanning two decades, set between sugar cane fields by the sea, a native Australian<br />
flower farm, and a celestial crater in the central desert, The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart<br />
follows Alice’s unforgettable journey, as she learns that the most powerful story she<br />
will ever possess is her own.<br />
Hunting El Chapo:<br />
Taking Down the World’s Most-Wanted Drug Lord<br />
by Andrew Hogan, Douglas Century<br />
This is the incredible story of D.E.A. Special Agent Andrew Hogan’s seven-year-long<br />
chase to capture El Chapo, a multibillionaire drug-lord and escape-artist posing as a<br />
Mexican Robin Hood, who in reality was a brutal sociopath responsible for the murders<br />
of thousands. His greedy campaign to take over his rivals’ territories resulted in an<br />
unprecedented war with a body count of over 100,000.<br />

We follow Hogan on his quest to achieve the seemingly impossible: to cross the border<br />
into Mexico and arrest El Chapo, the leader of the Sinaloa Cartel, a billionaire and<br />
Public Enemy No. 1, who had been evading capture for more than a decade and had<br />
earned a reputation for being utterly untouchable.<br />
This intimate thriller tells how Hogan single-mindedly and methodically climbed the ladder within the hierarchy of the Sinaloa<br />
Cartel – the world’s wealthiest and most powerful drug-trafficking organization – by creating one of the most sophisticated<br />
undercover operations in the history of the D.E.A. From infiltrating Chapo’s inner circle to leading a white-knuckle manhunt with<br />
an elite brigade of Mexican Marines, Hogan left no stone unturned in his hunt for the world’s most powerful drug kingpin.<br />

SHIFTING: Some readers have questioned the suitability of Redcliffs Park as the proposed new home for<br />
Redcliffs School.<br />
and in charge once children<br />
have left the school for home?<br />
Particularly as it has been<br />
decided that<br />
they will use<br />
the coastal<br />
pathway?<br />
Many<br />
questions<br />
have not<br />
been<br />
addressed by<br />
the school on<br />
this matter.<br />
Colin<br />
and Emma<br />
Lumb –<br />
While we could have done<br />
without the stress and hours<br />
of work over the past few years<br />
to keep our local school, we<br />
are now so close to making<br />
real tangible progress with<br />
having our<br />
kura and our<br />
kids back in the<br />
neighbourhood.<br />
The Ministry of<br />
Education has<br />
confirmed that<br />
the buildings<br />
would be<br />
mainly situated<br />
on a building<br />
platform up<br />
by Main Rd,<br />
at a similar<br />
height to the<br />
old site on the other side of<br />
the road. There are many<br />
potential positives about the<br />
Redcliffs Park site, especially<br />
the proximity to the coastal<br />
pathway and the natural<br />
classroom of the estuary itself.<br />
Regarding concerns about<br />
flooding, with buildings at<br />
the higher level and access<br />
from Main Rd, minor events<br />
would be managed as at many<br />
schools around the country.<br />
Anything more significant<br />
would likely be part of broader<br />
scale disruption around<br />
the neighbourhood and the<br />
region.<br />
As for the tsunami risk,<br />
with the location being only<br />
the width of the road away<br />
from the old site, the risk and<br />
consequent plans for either site<br />
are similar.

Real Hope For Long Term<br />
Back Pain Sufferers<br />
After more than ten years in<br />
New Zealand, Teeter Hang-Ups<br />
have now gained a reputation<br />
for success with long-term<br />
sufferers of Back pain. Inversion<br />
New Zealand was started<br />
by Dave and Nancy Hare,<br />
Dave had suffered over<br />
twenty years of back pain<br />
from Degenerated Discs and<br />
had basically given up and<br />
decided to just live with it. “To<br />
me surgery was never an<br />
option” he said “as long as I<br />
still could walk, there was<br />
hope”.<br />
Dave had tried everything;<br />
every time he was overseas<br />
he would search for anything<br />
that could possibly help.<br />
While on one of these<br />
overseas trips ten years ago,<br />
Dave discovered the Teeter<br />
Hang-Ups. “The first time I<br />
tried it, the pain disappeared<br />
and I was completely pain<br />
free for about 30 minutes,<br />
nothing had done that” he<br />
told me. Dave never believed<br />
it would fix him, “as specialists<br />
had told me it was irreversible,<br />
I now knew I had a place<br />
to go every time I wanted<br />
some serious relief”.<br />
To Dave’s surprise the more<br />
he used the table the longer<br />
the pain stayed away, until<br />
after nearly three months he<br />
was completely pain free, “I<br />
couldn’t believe it’ he told me<br />
“I had spent large amounts of<br />
money on every form of treatment<br />
available and here<br />
was something I had never<br />
heard of sorting it out for<br />
me in a very short period of<br />
time” It was then Dave<br />
decided to introduce Teeter<br />
into New Zealand and Inversion<br />
NZ was born.<br />
Over the years INZ have<br />
helped thousands of people<br />
get some serious relief and<br />
have seen results in not only<br />
backs, but necks, hips,<br />
knees, posture, circulation,<br />
increased height, blood<br />
pressure and lots more.<br />
“We have testimonials from<br />
people with over fifty years<br />
of back problems and even<br />
have them in a number of<br />
schools in New Zealand for<br />
their special needs children”<br />
he told me, “the blood to the<br />
brain helps these kids and<br />
the results are excellent”<br />
What this means for the<br />
aging population is that it<br />
helps maintain the health of<br />
the brain as we all get older.<br />
Dave told me that he<br />
realised that, had he not<br />
tried the Teeter for himself<br />
he would still be suffering, “I<br />
would still be a miserable<br />
grumpy bugger, living with<br />
pain, that is why we do the<br />
shows, people need to try it<br />
for themselves” he told me<br />
“most people actually get<br />
off with the pain either gone<br />
or considerably less” he said<br />
“we let the tables do the<br />
talking”<br />
IT IS PURE LOGIC AS TO HOW<br />
THE TEETER TABLE WORKS<br />
Discs: It uses gravity to apply traction,<br />
the traction gently opens the discs and as<br />
they open up they create suction, this<br />
suction draws fluid from the surrounding<br />
tissue back into the discs, re-hydrating<br />
them. This is the key! Discs do not have<br />
their own blood supply, they rely on transfer<br />
of fluid from the surrounding tissue to<br />
keep them healthy and hydrated and over<br />
the years as discs get thinner with age, they<br />
lose the ability to take on fluid (just like<br />
squeezing a sponge) and they start to<br />
de-hydrate.<br />
De-Hydrated discs are less flexible, they are<br />
harder, more prone to injury, they interfere<br />
with nerve roots creating pain and<br />
ultimately the de-hydration causes degeneration.<br />
The Teeter Inversion table slowly<br />
and gently brings the hydration back into<br />
the discs, plumping them up. This brings<br />
back lost height (most people will regain<br />
around 2 CM of height), it separates the<br />
nerve roots far more effectively and returns<br />
quality of life<br />
Muscles: A lot of pain is muscular, when<br />
muscles are stressed they become tight<br />
which restricts the flow of blood and lymph<br />
through the muscles so toxins build up,<br />
Co2 and Lactic Acid. Traction opens up the<br />
muscles, Rhythmic Traction, is a gentle<br />
rocking motion that stimulates circulation<br />
and encourages blood flow through the<br />
muscles, which clears the lactic acid into<br />
your lymph system where it stimulates<br />
lymph flow and deals with it. Most people<br />
with serious neck issues see a large<br />
improvement after only one treatment.<br />

Frank Harwood (84) of Turangi using his Teeter, Frank has been<br />
Inverting for over eight years and has found it keeps him young<br />
Posture: Poor posture is one of the<br />
major cases of pain and is a major contributor<br />
to the deterioration of the body with<br />
age. A difference in leg length causes most<br />
of the hip and knee issues, as they continue<br />
to place uneven loads on the joints;<br />
similar to the wheels out of alignment on<br />
your car.<br />
Trying to correct posture is extremely<br />
difficult due to muscle memory, as it<br />
constantly pulls the muscles back to where<br />
they were. At a level of 40 degrees or more<br />
on the Teeter, the muscle groups open up<br />
and eventually come back into alignment,<br />
using the table daily, does not allow the<br />
muscle memory to pull them back out of<br />
alignment and slowly the muscles start to<br />
lose their memory and go with the flow,<br />
allowing the body to come back into<br />
correct posture. Then using the table once a<br />
day will ensure it is kept there.<br />
This is pure logic, if a machine is out of<br />
alignment it does not last long, the only<br />
difference between the body and a<br />
machine is that the body is constantly<br />
repairing itself, however if the wear and<br />
tear on the body is greater than the body’s<br />
ability to repair itself, it is a slow decline.<br />
The Teeter slowly brings the body out of its<br />
decline and allows the body to repair itself,<br />
resulting in a far healthier life.<br />
If you are serious about investing in your<br />
health and really sorting your issues out,<br />
come see us at one of our local roadshows,<br />
you have nothing to lose and chances are, a<br />
lot to gain.<br />

Here in New Zealand,<br />
Dr Giresh Kanji, one of the countries most<br />
respected Pain Specialists completed a PhD on<br />
how humans experience pain and then<br />
researched lower back pain, writing "Fix Your<br />
Back" and then spent a few years researching<br />
neck pain, headache and migraine and wrote<br />
"Fix Your Neck Pain, Headache & Migraine",<br />
both books are in most bookstores.<br />
Dr Kanji discovered in the research that the<br />
disc is the most likely source of low back pain<br />
and Inversion showed the best results of all the<br />
trials conducted. Three studies showed a 60%<br />
reduction in pain and one showed a 75%<br />
reduction in surgery for people with disc<br />
prolapse.<br />
Dr Kanji endorses Inversion as the best method<br />
to manage back pain, he has personally been<br />
using the Teeter Inversion tables for his own<br />
low back pain, has Teeter Inversion tables at<br />
both of his clinics in Wellington (The Sports<br />
and Pain Clinic) and has had such success that<br />
he is now conducting the largest study in the<br />
World on Inversion Therapy. In his own words,<br />
"these things are gold and inversion should be<br />
a first line treatment for low back pain”.<br />

Fines for<br />
illegal<br />
fishing<br />
A STRING of offending in<br />
Canterbury’s two marine<br />
reserves over summer has<br />
prompted warnings from the<br />
Department of Conservation<br />
to check the location of marine<br />
reserves before going fishing.<br />
Last week, four Canterbury<br />
men were prosecuted and fined<br />
in the district court for illegally<br />
fishing in one of these reserves.<br />
Grant Richard Burgess,<br />
James Cunningham, Sean Cunningham<br />
and Mark Donald<br />
Macalister pleaded guilty to<br />
charges of taking marine life<br />
from Pōhatu Marine Reserve<br />
on the southeast side of Banks<br />
Peninsula.<br />
DOC rangers on a routine<br />
boat patrol of the reserve saw<br />
the offenders fishing from<br />
two separate boats in January.<br />
The men told the rangers they<br />
weren’t aware of the marine<br />
reserve.<br />
Their fines ranged from $500<br />
to $750 plus court costs, and<br />
Judge MacAskill said there was<br />
no reasonable excuse for their<br />
actions and they ought to have<br />
made sure what protected areas<br />
there were in the locality.<br />
National<br />
List MP Nuk<br />
Korako writes<br />
about how<br />
the legacy<br />
of those who<br />
fought in<br />
World War<br />
1 and other<br />
conflicts continues through<br />
our faithful remembrance<br />
on Anzac Day<br />
APRIL 25 marks the anniversary<br />
of the Anzac landing on the<br />
Gallipoli Peninsula in 1915.<br />
We remember and honour our<br />
2779 New Zealanders who were<br />
killed on the battlefields of Gallipoli<br />
and those who served and<br />
returned.<br />
We also remember our Australian<br />
brothers who fought and<br />
died beside New Zealanders not<br />
only at Gallipoli but in many<br />
other conflicts far from home.<br />
First commemorated in 1916 in<br />
remembrance of those who died<br />
in that campaign, Anzac Day has<br />
come to signify so much more.<br />
I saw the evidence of this personally<br />
when, in my previous career<br />
in tourism, I developed and<br />
escorted four Hikoi Maumahara<br />
– Journeys of Remembrance<br />
following in the footsteps of the<br />
New Zealand pioneer and 28 th<br />
Maori Battalion.<br />
I have stood on the battlefields<br />
of Gallipoli, Passchendaele,<br />
Messines, the Somme, El<br />
Alamein, Tobruk, Tebaga Gap<br />
(where 2 nd Lieutenant Moana<br />
Nui a Kiwa won his Victoria<br />
Cross), Crete, Cassino, Orsonga,<br />
Florence, Faenza and Trieste,<br />
and visited the graves where so<br />
many New Zealanders rest in<br />
foreign soil.<br />
We were accompanied on<br />
those tours by several veterans<br />
of the 28 th Maori Battalion and<br />
many whanau members. Those<br />
families brought with them the<br />
only physical connections they<br />
had left of their loved ones in<br />
the form of medals won on the<br />
battlefields we visited, letters,<br />
bibles and photos, along with the<br />
dreaded telegrams informing<br />
them of the death of loved ones.<br />
Local<br />
News<br />
Now<br />
Remembering our fallen ‘brothers’<br />
Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
To me personally, it was a<br />
powerful reminder of the value<br />
of those individual memories<br />
from those global events, and<br />
the original documents and<br />
keepsakes that have been carried<br />
through the generations.<br />
Truly family taoka or<br />
treasures. My wife Chris and I<br />
travelled to Europe on our own<br />
hikoi to find my great uncle’s<br />
grave and when we finally found<br />
his resting place outside the town<br />
of Armentieres on the Belgium-<br />
French boarder, we had a tangi<br />
and karakia to give him the<br />
poroporoaki (farewell) that he<br />
had never had, and before leaving<br />
we placed a piece of Arahura<br />
pounamu (greenstone) at the<br />
foot of his headstone.<br />
We all carry the legacy of our<br />
grandparents, parents and family<br />
members who fought for our<br />
country and it is our responsibility<br />
to ensure that our children<br />
carry that legacy forward to the<br />
next generation.<br />
Today e hoa ma (friends),<br />
we continue with that legacy<br />
through our faithful remembrance<br />
of Anzac Day. This is<br />
a time to honour our morehu<br />
(veterans) contributions to the<br />
peace, freedom and security our<br />
country enjoys today.<br />
We will remember them.<br />

Protecting<br />
vulnerable children<br />
Individuals or organisations that receive<br />
state funding and deal with children<br />
should already be familiar with the<br />
Vulnerable Children Act 2014. The<br />
provisions of the Act are being phased<br />
in over a period with obligations to<br />
be complied with by July 1, 20<strong>18</strong> and<br />
July 1, 2019. The Act applies to most<br />
organisations that employ or engage<br />
workers to provide regulated services<br />
to children under the age of <strong>18</strong> (and 21<br />
where the Oranga Tamariki Act 1989<br />
applies). For those who are affected, it is<br />
important to remain vigilant in ensuring<br />
you meet your legislative obligations.<br />
The Act has wide application and it is<br />
easy to be caught by its provisions.<br />
If you receive State funding, whether<br />
direct or indirect, and carry out<br />
“regulated services” such as welfare<br />
services, education services, health<br />
services, transport services, or any<br />
services specified by the Act, then you<br />
may be bound to comply with the Act.<br />
The Act is part of an effort to promote<br />
the well-being of children and provide<br />
a safer environment for them. Affected<br />
organisations must have a child<br />
protection policy in place and carry out<br />
mandatory periodic safety checks for<br />
anyone defined as a “children’s worker”.<br />
If you don’t already have a policy in<br />
place, the Government has issued a list<br />
of regulations that may be adopted.<br />
These regulations can be accessed<br />
online.<br />
From an employer’s perspective, it is<br />
important to understand the distinction<br />
between “core workers” and “noncore<br />
workers”. Core workers work<br />
alone with children, and have primary<br />
care and responsibility over them.<br />
Non-core workers have regular but<br />
limited contact and are never left alone<br />
with children. If a core worker has a<br />
conviction for an offence specified in<br />
the Act (for example, indecent assault,<br />
wounding with intent), then that<br />
individual will not be able to work with<br />
children unless they have been granted<br />
an exemption.<br />
All existing core workers must have<br />
checks completed by July 1, 20<strong>18</strong> and<br />
all existing non-core workers need<br />
checks completed by July 1, 2019.<br />
A breach may result in a conviction with<br />
a maximum fine of up to $50,000.<br />
If you have an existing policy in place,<br />
it is recommended that you review it.<br />
If you don’t have a policy in place but<br />
think the Act may apply to you, taking<br />
action is recommended to ensure you<br />
meet your obligations. Young Hunter’s<br />
Adam Curtin provides advice on these<br />
matters and can assist you if you have<br />
queries.<br />

Rotary aids Red Cross<br />
Ferrymead<br />
Rotarians<br />
helped out<br />
the Red<br />
Cross with<br />
its annual<br />
Red Rose<br />
Day. Member Barbara<br />
Crooks writes about<br />
the fundraiser<br />
FIVE THOUSAND roses<br />
were sold in Christchurch<br />
and 6000 in rural<br />
Canterbury and on the<br />
West Coast.<br />
Red Cross has been selling<br />
roses for more than 30<br />
years.<br />
For a gold coin, you<br />
could have a red rose for a<br />
loved one, for your granny,<br />
or for someone else who<br />
takes your fancy.<br />
Recipients’ faces certainly<br />
light up when they<br />
are given a rose. One<br />
couple fell into a passionate<br />
embrace and kiss.<br />
One woman bought five<br />
roses, gave one to each<br />
person manning the stall,<br />
took two to other shoppers<br />
and one for herself.<br />
Many people said they<br />
were so grateful for what<br />
Red Cross did after the<br />
earthquakes that they<br />
readily donate for a rose;<br />
some even donated and<br />
didn’t take a rose.<br />
Red Cross certainly does<br />
plenty in the community.<br />
Take 2017 in Canterbury<br />
and on the West Coast for<br />
instance: 174,676 meals<br />
on wheels delivered; 3022<br />
children given free, basic<br />
first-aid training; 4351<br />
people driven to appointments;<br />
four lives saved<br />
through Red Cross-provided<br />
defibrillators; 11,000<br />
hazard/first-aid apps<br />
downloaded; 36 response<br />
volunteers trained and 39<br />
former refugees helped<br />
into work.<br />
“We couldn’t do what<br />
we do without the help of<br />
volunteers and groups like<br />
Rotary,” said Fiona Sawers,<br />
Canterbury West Coast<br />

Our People<br />
Estella Hungerford<br />
Young surfer hungry for more<br />
Sumner’s Estella<br />
Hungerford won the<br />
under-16 girls division<br />
in the Emerson’s<br />
South Island surfing<br />
championship in Dunedin<br />
over Easter, hopefully<br />
cementing her chances<br />
of being selected for the<br />
New Zealand team to<br />
travel to the International<br />
Surfing Association world<br />
junior championships.<br />
Sarla Donovan catches<br />
up with the 16-year-old<br />
You must be feeling good<br />
coming off a couple of<br />
divisional wins in Dunedin and<br />
at the recent Duke Festival of<br />
Surfing – what does it mean for<br />
you going forward?<br />
I do have a good placing<br />
at the moment in the overall<br />
New Zealand rankings. I just<br />
moved into second after this<br />
last win, which is good going<br />
into when they choose the ISA<br />
team. Each country takes I<br />
think two girls and four boys<br />
for each age division, and they<br />
compete with every other<br />
surfing nation in the world. It’s<br />
at national representative level<br />
which I’ve never done before. My<br />
friend Tegan did and she said<br />
it was amazing going to see the<br />
different cultures and different<br />
places. It’s in Tokyo this year. I<br />
think I find out near the end of<br />
May (if I’m in the team.)<br />
Can you remember your first<br />
time on a surfboard?<br />
Not really, I think I was quite<br />
young. I didn’t really get into it<br />
until I was about 11 and then I<br />
really enjoyed it. I did my first<br />
competition that summer, the<br />
women’s Canterbury champs,<br />
and I got third and was pretty<br />
stoked and that kind of kicked<br />
everything off. Competitions are<br />
great; you get to meet so many<br />
cool people and it’s a good way to<br />
improve your surfing and go to<br />
lots of new places.<br />
SUCCESS: Estella Hungerford currently ranks second in New Zealand’s under-16 surfing division.<br />
It’s not something you took to<br />
straight away, so what is it you<br />
like about surfing?<br />
My dad and step mum (Stoked<br />
Surf School owner Donna<br />
Henderson) taught all their six<br />
kids at the same time so it was a<br />
real family thing which I really<br />
enjoy, it’s a good way to spend<br />
time with them. That’s probably<br />
a lot bigger than my competition<br />
drive, getting to spend time with<br />
them each weekend in the water.<br />
All the kids can surf. I’m the<br />
oldest, then the youngest is eight,<br />
then there’s two 10-year-olds and<br />
then the two girls are 13 and 12.<br />
Two of them – the middle child<br />
from each family – aren’t that<br />
into it but they still come out all<br />
the time.<br />
Are you competitive among<br />
yourselves?<br />
Ava, who is 12, pushes me a lot;<br />
she’s pretty hardcore and I love<br />
surfing with her, she’s hilarious,<br />
and she pushes me. There’s a<br />
bit of friendly competition but<br />
nothing too serious.<br />
So you’ve carried on<br />
competing since that first one?<br />
My dad was really good; he<br />
took me all over the South Island<br />
first and then we ventured up<br />
to the North Island surfing<br />
competitions. It’s different up<br />
there, all the girls generally<br />
come from really strong surfing<br />
backgrounds and have been<br />
surfing since they were quite<br />
young. The waves are a lot<br />
warmer and there’s some pretty<br />
amazing breaks. Not that there’s<br />
none down here, but it’s a pretty<br />
high level of competition.<br />
How good is it being able to<br />
compete with your step mum<br />
and sister?<br />
It’s definitely good to have<br />
their support. Mainly me and<br />
Ava at the moment, but the<br />
PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER<br />
younger kids will eventually<br />
get into it. Dad and Donna just<br />
bought a campervan so that we<br />
don’t spend as much money on<br />
accommodation and flights.<br />
We’re away a lot of the time so<br />
it’s getting a lot of use. It does<br />
get quite messy at times. But it’s<br />
pretty good.<br />
What’s your proudest<br />
achievement so far?<br />
I was pretty stoked to get my<br />
first national level win this year<br />
at Whangamata and then backed<br />
it up with two others, which was<br />
even more amazing. So it’s been<br />
a good year so far.<br />

success on the water<br />
How much time do you spend<br />
on the water each week?<br />
I try to get out at least once<br />
a day. I used to surf every day<br />
before school but it’s quite dark<br />
at the moment and getting a bit<br />
cold so I usually go once after<br />
school and try to get two surfs<br />
in on Saturdays and Sundays.<br />
I’ve been trying to go out in all<br />
conditions lately because, at<br />
competitions, quite often the<br />
waves are really bad so you’ve got<br />
to get used to surfing in all types.<br />
Surfing has been dominated<br />
by men for a long time but that<br />
seems to be changing – why<br />
do you think more girls and<br />
women are getting into it?<br />
Maybe the female role models<br />
have just improved so much<br />
lately like (pro-surfers) Stephanie<br />
Gilmore and Carissa Moore<br />
kind of leading the way on<br />
the women’s ASP world tour. I<br />
reckon it’s a lot easier now than<br />
it used to be for girls. Donna is a<br />
big advocate for women’s surfing<br />
which is good, she pushes that<br />
a lot, especially in the South<br />
Island.<br />
How is it different competing<br />
as a women – are the<br />
competitions organised any<br />
differently?<br />
Not really – there’s generally<br />
not as many women, but at the<br />
Duke Festival in the longboard<br />
division there were more entries<br />
than the men’s so they decided<br />
to make the prize money equal<br />
which was really cool. They do<br />
have a lot of men’s divisions<br />
and I do know that quite a few<br />
of the girls were annoyed that<br />
there wasn’t an open women’s<br />
longboard or women’s SUP<br />
(stand-up paddleboard) at the<br />
South Island’s this year. Someone<br />
I know went in the men’s SUP<br />
as ‘Luke’ instead of Lucy so<br />
she could complete which was<br />
really cool, we all supported her.<br />
She didn’t get through but she<br />
definitely had fun.<br />
Is it your goal to be a prosurfer?<br />
I’m not sure. I don’t think so,<br />
but I’ll see what happens. I might<br />
try and do a couple of overseas<br />
competitions and see how I do. I<br />
want to go to university, but I’m<br />
not sure what I want to study.<br />
But I reckon Ava will probably<br />
go pretty far because she’s a lot<br />
younger than me and is at a<br />
much higher level than I was at<br />
her age. It would be cool to see<br />
her go professional.<br />
I’ve heard people describe<br />
surfing as a lifestyle rather than<br />
a sport. What is it for you?<br />
It’s definitely a bit of a lifestyle,<br />
you’re chasing waves a lot trying<br />
to find the best swell. I think it<br />
only really becomes a sport when<br />
you do it competitively and the<br />
rest of the time it’s generally a<br />
lifestyle.<br />
Do people have preconceptions<br />
about you because<br />
you surf?<br />
If I’m paddling out and there’s<br />
a lot of males in the line-up, I’ll<br />
try to get a really good first wave<br />
so that they don’t drop in on me<br />
thinking I’m just a girl who can’t<br />
surf. But my friends at school<br />
don’t really know what it means<br />
so I kind of try to educate them –<br />
it doesn’t always work.<br />
Can you describe what it feels<br />
like to ride a wave?<br />
Well, on a really big wave, you<br />
get a big rush of adrenaline. It’s<br />
an amazing feeling and then, if<br />
you do a really good turn, you’ll<br />
definitely feel awesome; like if<br />
I do a really amazing turn off<br />
and then jump off the wave,<br />
I’ve got a massive smile on my<br />
face because it feels amazing.<br />
But I don’t really know how to<br />
describe it.<br />
Do you have any tips for<br />
beginners?<br />
Get out there as much as you<br />
can. It’s definitely important<br />
to ride the right board. A lot of<br />
people jump on a really small<br />
board because they see the pros<br />
riding it but you definitely try<br />
and start on a really big board.<br />
A soft-top is really good<br />
because it doesn’t hurt. And it’s<br />
helpful to surf with someone<br />

who’s better than you to improve.<br />
That’s why I like surfing with the<br />
guys out in the water because<br />
they push me a lot.<br />
What’s your favourite place<br />
to surf?<br />
On the West Coast at Fox<br />
River there’s this amazing lefthand<br />
point break, but after the<br />
big storms they’ve had there it’s<br />
not that great at the moment, so<br />
we’re hoping for another storm<br />
to push the banks back up and<br />
make it good again.<br />
If you’re not out surfing,<br />
where would we find you?<br />
That’s a hard question. I just<br />
read a lot, I don’t really do<br />
a lot other than surfing. I’ll<br />
generally just be with my family<br />
somewhere. I go to school at<br />
Haeata Community Campus.<br />
I was at Aranui High School<br />
before it changed to Haeata and<br />
I found it hard to get used to at<br />
first but I really like it now. I can<br />
work at my own level and don’t<br />
have to be held back by annoying<br />
people in my class. And there’s a<br />
lot of one-on-one learning which<br />
suits my style.<br />
What are your favourite<br />
subjects at school?<br />
We don’t really have subjects<br />
but I do enjoy science. And<br />
maths because it challenges me.<br />
Career-wise I don’t know. I want<br />
to go to Otago to study because<br />
they’ve got really good waves<br />
down there, but I don’t know<br />
what I want to study yet.<br />
If you weren’t a surfer, what<br />
would you be?<br />
Probably doing some other<br />
sport like netball or rugby,<br />
something like that, maybe<br />
cricket. Surfing takes up most of<br />
my time, but I do enjoy it so I’m<br />
not missing out.<br />

Strong results for local surfers as winter sets in<br />
Aaron Lock reports on the<br />
Canterbury men’s champs<br />
results at the weekend and<br />
the grom series<br />
THE FIVE days of southerlies<br />
last week were a shock to the<br />
system but the silver lining<br />
was the pumping waves we<br />
had over the weekend. Friday<br />
and Saturday saw perfect lines<br />
marching into Sumner and in<br />
spite of the cold temperatures, it<br />
was very busy in the water.<br />
The change from 2mm to<br />
4mm wetsuits in just a week took<br />
a bit of adjusting to as well. The<br />
water temperature is around 14<br />
• By Gordon Findlater<br />
THE SUMNER wave is rolling<br />
after they notched their second<br />
win from as many outings in the<br />
Hawkins Metro Premier Cup.<br />
But problems at first-five could<br />
lead to an interesting brand of<br />
rugby being employed going into<br />
busy period of fixtures.<br />
Saturday’s 36-27 bonus point<br />
win over Marist Albion at Edgar<br />
MacIntosh Park put Sumner<br />
joint top of the competiton<br />
on 10 points with defending<br />
champions Lincoln University.<br />
Going into the match Sumner<br />
were already without regular<br />
first-five Nik Cummings who<br />
could be facing surgery on an<br />
injured foot. Matters were made<br />
Aaron's Surf Report<br />
deg C which is about average for<br />
mid-<strong>April</strong>. The only problem<br />
with an epic hot summer is we’ve<br />
become too soft for a normal<br />
Christchurch autumn.<br />
The South Island Grom series<br />
finished off in Kaikoura a few<br />
weeks back. Local surfers battled<br />
worse when Josh Toy – who has<br />
been impressive in the No 10<br />
jersey – suffered a concussion<br />
after landing from an awkward<br />
tackle.<br />
Sumner were also without a<br />
proven first-five on their bench<br />
due to division two regular Zack<br />
Grey falling ill. So, when Toy<br />
came off coach Martin Dodgson<br />
found himself in a pickle.<br />
It was former New Brighton<br />
winger/centre Filimoni<br />
Waqainabete (right) who ended<br />
up coming off the bench to slot<br />
in a first-five, raising eyebrows .<br />
“You should have seen the<br />
opposition 10, he looked up<br />
and went what the f***,” said<br />
Dodgson.<br />
The Canterbury sevens player<br />
wasted no time showing he<br />
had the skill set to slot into the<br />
playmaking role by setting up<br />
a try with a well weighted chip<br />
through the defence after a<br />
scrum on the Marist 10 metre<br />
line.<br />
How Dodgson came up with<br />
SPORTS<br />
some big and challenging conditions<br />
at Meatworks over the<br />
weekend.<br />
Jack Tyro won the under-12<br />
boys and won the overall series<br />
title undefeated over four<br />
contests. Jordan Sparrow was<br />
fourth in Kaikoura and finished<br />
the series second overall in the<br />
under-<strong>18</strong> boys. Ava Henderson<br />
continued her great run winning<br />
the under-14 girls and winning<br />
the series as well. Holly Campbell<br />
put in a great performance<br />
to come fourth in the under-14<br />
girls and second in the under-12<br />
girls and achieved the same<br />
placings in the series. Eden Hungerford<br />
won the under-12 girls in<br />
Kaikoura and sister Estella was<br />
second in the under-<strong>18</strong> girls.<br />
Local boardriders club, Point<br />
Surf Team, were third overall<br />
in the South Island Grom series<br />
which is a great achievement.<br />
Well done to all the PST groms.<br />
PST is making a come back.<br />
One quiet achiever on the<br />
national contest scene this year<br />
has been Sumner’s Thomas<br />
Harcourt. Thomas has been getting<br />
some great results in both<br />
the open and under-20 divisions<br />
in the national series. Thomas<br />
was fourth at the South Island<br />
champs in Dunedin and is sitting<br />
fifth on the national junior<br />
ratings with two events to go.<br />
This weekend will see the national<br />
series come closer to home<br />
with the Exit Surf Canterbury<br />
men’s surf champs kicking off<br />
on Saturday. The event will find<br />
the best waves between Taylors<br />
Mistake and Gore <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />
•Aaron Lock is the Sumner<br />
Learn to Surf school principal<br />
director<br />
Sumner gets off to perfect Hawkins Cup start<br />
the ingenuous idea to play the<br />
powerful Fijian at first-five<br />
has been the talk about town.<br />
Some have even claimed to have<br />
witnessed straws being drawn.<br />
However, Dodgson has put these<br />
rumours to bed claiming to have<br />
taken a more holistic approach.<br />
“I said who wants to play<br />
10 and he said ‘I will’ so I said<br />
‘sweet, done’.”<br />
Sumner’s new tackle breaker<br />
turned playmaker could prove<br />
pivotal in their upcoming home<br />
stand at St Leonards Park.<br />
They host last year’s beaten<br />
finalists on Saturday before<br />
playing Burnside on Anzac Day.<br />
The biggest test of all then comes<br />
on Saturday <strong>April</strong> 29 when they<br />
play Lincoln University.

Heathcote stalwart honoured<br />
• By Gordon Findlater<br />
LONG-TIME Heathcote opener<br />
John Garry was recognised for<br />
his two decade long commitment<br />
to senior A cricket in Canterbury<br />
by being awarded the Peter<br />
Russell trophy.<br />
The trophy was awarded<br />
to Garry for his outstanding<br />
contribution at<br />
the Canterbury<br />
Metro Cricket<br />
Association’s<br />
night last week.<br />
In February<br />
the 49-year-old<br />
became the<br />
John Garry<br />
first player in<br />
the senior A<br />
competition’s<br />
history to score 10,000 career<br />
runs. He also holds the record<br />
for most runs in a season in<br />
senior A grade, scoring 1060<br />
runs during the 2008-2009<br />
season at an average of over 70.<br />
Garry also looks set to be the<br />
only player to ever score 10,000<br />
runs at senior A level. The<br />
competition will be replaced by<br />
a new look premier competition<br />
next season.<br />
Garry won’t be a part<br />
of the Heathcote premier<br />
team going forward due to<br />
coaching commitments with<br />
his children’s cricket team on<br />
Saturday mornings. However,<br />
the coaching role will see him<br />
MILESTONE: Heathcote opener John Garry won the Peter Russell trophy for outstanding<br />
contribution to senior A club cricket after being the first to score 10,000 runs. <br />
remain well and truly involved<br />
with the club and he plans to<br />
play for a twenty20 side in the<br />
afternoon.<br />
Before moving to Christchurch<br />
in the early 1990’s he played<br />
premier cricket in Dunedin<br />
where he also represented Otago<br />
B.<br />
“I got asked to fill in for<br />
Heathcote one afternoon and I<br />
never really left,” said Garry.<br />
Since then Garry has<br />
completed <strong>18</strong> seasons for<br />
Heathcote mixed amongst a<br />
break from the sport and also<br />
turning to what is known as<br />
the ‘dark side’ by his pairs at<br />
Heathcote, when he spent three<br />
years with the Sumner club.<br />
The opener had questioned<br />
whether or not to continue<br />
SPORTS<br />
playing at senior A level for<br />
Heathcote coming into this<br />
season. But with the 10,000 run<br />
milestone within reach he was<br />
tempted back to the crease.<br />
“I was pretty chuffed to get<br />
there and to still be able to compete<br />
at that level.”<br />
Garry helped Heathcote to<br />
claim the treble this season,<br />
winning the senior A oneday,<br />
two-day and combined<br />
competition trophies. He scored<br />
299 runs in 10 one-day matches<br />
and 154 runs in five two-day<br />
matches.<br />
He says winning the treble<br />
was the perfect way to go out at<br />
the club’s top level of cricket and<br />
believes a platform has been laid<br />
for them to flourish.<br />
“It’s a real grass roots club and<br />
with what we’ve been through<br />
with the earthquake having to<br />
rebuild the place, seeing where<br />
the club is now is sensational.<br />
Our goal was to get the club up<br />
to a premier cricket grade. The<br />
criteria that we had to meet to<br />
be eligible to play in that grade<br />
was huge and we’ve managed to<br />
achieve that.”<br />
As for his favourite memories<br />
in his <strong>18</strong>-year career with the<br />
senior A side it’s hard to narrow<br />
them down.<br />
“It’s just the ground. Everyone<br />
looks forward to playing there<br />
because it’s just one pitch on one<br />
ground, you’re not sharing it<br />
with anyone. It’s a fantastic place<br />
for cricket with the hills around<br />
you. The lower grade teams don’t<br />
get to play there as often so that’s<br />
the biggest thing I’ll miss.”<br />
