Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi 

from the reporter’s desk 

It’s about time big retailers did their bit to tackle the global issue 

of plastic waste. 

Countdown Ferrymead will go plastic bag-free on Monday 

(see page 3). 

It is one of 10 Countdown stores making the move throughout 

New Zealand. 

The stores will be used to test the change and gather customer 

feedback before further changes are made to all 182 stores. 

Customers will have to take their own bags, buckets or boxes 

to carry their shopping. 

It may take a while to get used to, but habits can be changed 

and soon enough we will learn to take our own bags. 

It’s a great step in the right direction and I hope more businesses 

will follow.

Supermarket goes plastic bag-free 


Kiri Hannifin 

COUNTDOWN Ferrymead 

will go plastic-bag free on 

Monday. 

It’s one of 10 supermarkets 

nationwide the company has 

chosen would be single-use plastic 

bag-free by the start of June. 

Customers at the Ferrymead 

store will need to bring their 

own “bags, or bucket or box 

. . . whatever they want,” said 

Countdown 

general manager 

corporate 

affairs, Kiri 

Hannifin. 

Since it announced 

its decision 

to phase 

out single-use 

plastic carrier 

bags last year, Countdown 

customers had already reduced 

their use of plastic bags by just 

over 16 per cent, she said. 

“We’re really heartened so 

many of our customers are 

already really committed to using 

less plastic when they shop 

with us. However, we know the 

biggest barrier to change is to 

get into a new habit of bringing 

your own bags. We’re starting 

to talk with customers in these 

first 10 stores now and are really 

looking forward to helping them 

make the switch as easily as 

possible.” 

Countdown is moving to get 

rid of the environmentallydamaging 

bags in the 10 supermarkets 

across the country by 

Christmas. 

The others are in Blenheim, 

Auckland, Wellington, Gisborne, 

Dargaville and Whanganui. 

Selected stores represent a 

range of sizes, checkout and 

bag carousel layouts, cities and 

smaller towns, said Ms Hannifin. 

They would be used to test

“If (customers) get caught

which you’ll see after May 21.” 

What shoppers 

are saying 

Lisa Brignull, 

of Mt 

Pleasant: 

“It is a great 

idea that we 

shall use 

fewer plastic 

bags with 

less waste, 

especially on the hills where I 

run. It can only be a good thing 

and yes, I shall use my own 

bags.” 

Jeremy 

Smith, of 

Ferrymead: 

“I guess that it 

is a good idea 

as something 

has to be 

done to get 

rid of the 

plastic in the oceans. I usually 

forget to bring my bags as I 

usually don’t buy a lot, and 

I am able to carry most of it. 

Boxes of beer have handles 

anyway.”

The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart 

by Holly ringland 

The most enchanting debut novel of 2018, this is an irresistible, deeply moving and 

romantic story of a young girl, daughter of an abusive father, who has to learn the hard way 

that she can break the patterns of the past, live on her own terms and find her own strength. 

After her family suffers a tragedy, nine-year-old Alice Hart is forced to leave her idyllic seaside 

home. She is taken in by her grandmother, June, a flower farmer who raises Alice on the 

language of Australian native flowers, a way to say the things that are too hard to speak. 

Under the watchful eye of June and the women who run the farm, Alice settles, but grows 

up increasingly frustrated by how little she knows of her family’s story. In her early twenties, 

Alice’s life is thrown into upheaval again when she suffers devastating betrayal and loss. 

Desperate to outrun grief, Alice flees to the dramatically beautiful central Australian desert. In 

this otherworldly landscape Alice thinks she has found solace, until she meets a charismatic 

and ultimately dangerous man. 

Spanning two decades, set between sugar cane fields by the sea, a native Australian flower 

farm, and a celestial crater in the central desert, The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart follows Alice’s 

unforgettable journey, as she learns that the most powerful story she will ever possess is 

her own. 

Hunting El Chapo: 

Taking Down the World’s Most-Wanted Drug Lord 

by Andrew Hogan, douglas Century 

This is the incredible story of D.E.A. Special Agent Andrew Hogan’s seven-year-long 

chase to capture El Chapo, a multibillionaire drug-lord and escape-artist posing as 

a Mexican Robin Hood, who in reality was a brutal sociopath responsible for the 

murders of thousands. His greedy campaign to take over his rivals’ territories resulted 

in an unprecedented war with a body count of over 100,000. 

This intimate thriller tells how Hogan single-mindedly and methodically climbed the 

ladder within the hierarchy of the Sinaloa Cartel – the world’s wealthiest and most 

powerful drug-trafficking organization – by creating one of the most sophisticated 

undercover operations in the history of the D.E.A. From infiltrating Chapo’s inner circle 

to leading a white-knuckle manhunt with an elite brigade of Mexican Marines, Hogan 

left no stone unturned in his hunt for the world’s most powerful drug kingpin. 

Dictatorland: The Men Who Stole Africa 

by Paul Kenyon 

The dictator who grew so rich on his country’s cocoa crop that he built a 35-storeyhigh 

basilica in the jungles of the Ivory Coast. The austere, incorruptible leader who 

has shut Eritrea off from the world in a permanent state of war and conscripted every 

adult into the armed forces. In Equatorial Guinea, the paranoid despot who thought 

Hitler was the saviour of Africa and waged a relentless campaign of terror against 

his own people. The Libyan army officer who authored a new work of political 

philosophy, The Green Book, and lived in a tent with a harem of female soldiers, 

running his country like a mafia family business. 

And behind these almost incredible stories of fantastic violence and excess lie the 

dark secrets of Western greed and complicity, the insatiable taste for chocolate, 

oil, diamonds and gold that have encouraged dictators to rule with an iron hand, 

siphoning off their share of the action into mansions in Paris and banks in Zurich and 

keeping their people in dire poverty.

School decision fuels debate 


THE ARM-WRESTLE over a 

new site for Redcliffs School has 

heated up again. 

Last Wednesday Greater 

Christchurch Regeneration 

Minister Megan Woods has 

given approval for changes to 

the District Plan, allowing the 

school to be built on Redcliffs 

Park. 

Friends of 

Redcliffs Park 

spokesman 

Chris Doudney 

said the minister 

had got it 

wrong. 

Kate 

McClelland 

Darren 

Fidler 

“I suspect the 

information she 

was given was 

limited and 

she would have 

been limited 

as to what she 

could base her 

decision on. 

Very much 

the same as 

the community 

board hearing 

last August where our own 

submission couldn’t be received 

or discussed because the scope 

of the argument was limited to 

considering the school on the 

park.” 

He said they wanted to get 

more information about the 

basis for the minister’s decision. 

For seven years the school has 

been operating from the Van 

Asch campus in Sumner, after 

earthquake-generated rockfall 

at its former site. 

In March 2015 the Government 

proposed the school’s closure 

but following community 

outcry, it agreed in June 2016 to 

return the school to Redcliffs – 

provided it be established on a 

different site. 

Deputy principal Kate McClelland 

was “thrilled” the school 

will be rebuilt at Redcliffs Park. 

Said Ms McClelland: “After 

seven years we’re very excited to 

be finally able to return to our 

home in Redcliffs. After all the 

work that’s been done working 

towards this day, we’re thrilled.” 

Families and pupils were 

notified yesterday morning, 

shortly after the decision was 

announced. 

Board of trustees chairman 

Darren Fidler was “happy and

relieved” at the news. 

“We can finally get back. It’s 

been a long seven years.” 

He said it had been an open 

and transparent process. 

“The minister put out all the 

information that she used to 

inform her decision so the due 

process has been followed . . . 

we’re looking forward to getting 

back to the core business of 

educating kids. That’s all we’ve 

ever wanted to do and this has 

been a massive distraction from 

that.” 




Waterways 

clean-up 

successful 

MORE THAN 460 bags of 

rubbish were collected during the 

annual ‘mother of all clean-ups’ 

last weekend. 

Avon Heathcote Estuary Ihutai 

Trust co-ordinator Tanya Jenkins 

gave a big thumbs up to the 700 

people who participated. 

“The weather was great and 

everyone did a tremendous job 

collecting rubbish from the estuary 

and rivers,” she said. 

The clean-up area was split into 

three, the Heathcote River, estuary 

and the Avon River. 

For Heathcote, 465 people collected 

197 bags of rubbish and 65 

large items and at the Avon, 133 

people collected 85 bags and 39 

large items. 

At the estuary, 142 people 

collected 178 bags and 201 large 

items. 

The clean-up is a city-wide 

project that brings together the 

Avon-Heathcote Estuary Ihutai 

Trust, the Ōpāwaho Heathcote 

River Network, Conservation 

Volunteers NZ and the Avon- 

Ōtākaro Network. 

Volunteers were treated to a

Deep-bore drilling to dispose 

of wastewater under test 

A NEW method for 

disposing of Akaroa’s 

treated wastewater is being 

tested. 

Deep bore injection has 

been used to dispose of 

treated wastewater and 

stormwater in other parts 

of New Zealand, but has 

not been 

used on 

Banks Peninsula. 

The city 

council’s acting 

head of 

three waters 

Helen 

Beaumont 

and waste 

Helen Beaumont 

said it 

is important 

to test the method. 

“It’s not a new method 

– it’s been used in other 

places – but we need to 

know how it will work in 

the rocks specific to Banks 

Peninsula, and whether it’s 

effective, or even possible,” 

Ms Beaumont said. 

At present, treated wastewater 

is discharged into the 

harbour via an outfall pipe 

out from Green Point. 

The city council’s consent 

application for a new 

outfall to the harbour was 

declined in 2015. It has 

been exploring alternatives 

since then. 

“The topography and 

erodible soils around 

Akaroa, combined with the 

volume of wastewater that 

needs to be discharged, 

means that irrigating all 

wastewater to land is challenging. 

This is why we’re 

exploring this new option 

THE ANNUAL tree 

planting at Ferrymead’s 

Charlesworth Reserve is set 

to take place on Sunday. 

The event is part of the 

programme to restore 

Charlesworth Reserve’s 

wetland area to native 

bush. 

Trees for Canterbury, 

who would supply the 

trees for event, said the 

restoration programme had 

already improved wildlife 

in the area. 

Since the reserve opened 

in 2005, more 100,000 

plants have been planted at 

the site. 

“We have birdlife and 

insect life returning, flaura 

and fauna has changed 

drastically for the better,” 

Trees for Canterbury manager 

Steve Bush said. 

People wanting to take 

part in the planting event 

only needed to take themselves 

and a spade, he said. 

“All plants are native, all 

are original plants of the 

WASTE: Consent to discharge wastewater into 

Akaroa harbour expires in 2020. 

of deep bore injection,” Ms 

Beaumont said. 

Deep bore injection involves 

drilling several holes 

into suitable layers of rock. 

The treated wastewater 

then flows through naturally 

occurring fractures in 

the rock, and over a long 

period reaches the sea or 

harbour. 

The treated wastewater is 

contained within the steel 

lining of the bore until it 

reaches the desired dispersal 

depth, when the lining 

changes to a mesh. 

“During the tests, 

we will investigate the 

possibility of releasing 

treated wastewater into 

the ground below sea level, 

to prevent it entering any 

local springs – which is 

very unlikely because the 

treated wastewater would 

have to travel uphill,” said 

Ms Beaumont. 

It is estimated that 

about four bores would be 

needed. These would be 

spaced 50 to 100m apart, 

Christchurch area,” Mr 

Bush said. 

Support for the project 

came from the city council 

and the Avon-Heathcote 

Estuary Ihutai Trust. 

But the community 

support was what made 

continued restoration work 

successful. 

“All of these projects rely 

on community ownership, 

the community has to get 

behind these things,” Mr 

Bush said.

with a flow rate of up to five 

litres a second down each 

bore. 

“Treated wastewater 

would enter the bores either 

by gravity or with the 

assistance of a low-pressure 

pump,” Ms Beaumont said. 

Before being able to 

consult the community on 

deep bore injection as one 

of the options for dealing 

with Akaroa’s treated 

wastewater, the city council 

needs to collect data to 

determine whether this 

method is suitable. 

The proposed test drilling 

site is where the new 

wastewater treatment plant 

will be built, at the top of 

Old Coach Rd, with a second 

test drilling site across 

the road, alongside Old 

French Rd. 

The drill will operate 

between 7.30am and 6pm, 

six days a week, and the 

work is subject to the noise 

limits of the area and has to 

comply with the conditions

trees, he said. 

“The plant can get settled

moisture. By summer, 

when the ground dries, the 

plants will have got a good

Sandy Bay cyclist, 84, takes on Budapest 


FOR MOST 84-year-olds, 

clocking up 100km a day 

on a bike would be a tough 

ask, especially after two knee 

replacements and a hip pin. 

Not so for Sandy Bay’s Eric 

Hunter. 

Age is no barrier for this 

former Liverpudlian, and he’s 

delighted to be amongst a group 

of 17 mostly-kiwis taking a 13- 

day bike tour of Budapest in July. 

“You have to bear in mind it’s 

not a race,” he says. “You’ve got 

all day to do 100km so you can 

stop for coffee and lunch and 

afternoon tea and then arrive 

at the day’s destination by 4pm 

usually.” 

He’s already pretty fit, clocking 

up around 250km a week on his 

trusty yellow Carrerra road bike. 

These days the steep uphill 

climb from Governors Bay to 

Summit Rd gets a pass. 

Instead, he prefers to drive 

over to Princess Margaret Hospital 

and ride out from there with a 

couple of pals. 

“My racing days are over so I 

don’t have to do those steep rides 

anymore.” 

Eric Hunter was born in Liverpool 

and rode for England in the 

early 1950s, including the multistage 

Tour of Ireland and the Isle 

of Man International Road Race. 

He was also a non-travelling 

reserve for the 1956 Melbourne 

Olympics. 

Though he started riding for 

England at around age 19, it 

turned out to be only a threeyear 

stint when his work as an 

ON YA BIKE:

Eric Hunter is 

heading off to 

a two-week 

cycling tour of 

Budapest. 

apprentice chef demanded he 

make a choice. 

“I was told I needed to make 

my mind up whether I wanted to 

be a chef or a cyclist.” 

Knowing cycling wouldn’t 

last forever, he eased back and 

concentrated on a career in the 

kitchen. 

Back in those days, you had to 

do an apprenticeship before going 

into hotel management. 

In 1962 he married cycling 

enthusiast Maureen, a loyal supporter 

of the Merseyside Wheelers 

Cycling Club. 

Eric himself rode for the Melling 

Wheelers, which later became the 

Kirkby Rd Cycling Club. 

The pair came to New Zealand 

in 1964 to manage hotels. 

But it was a culture shock for 

Eric, who’d been used to England’s 

residential hotels. 

“New Zealand hotels were 

more like pubs back then – and 

they were drinking pubs. Remember 

the days of six o’clock 

closing? I’d never had anything 

to do with that (sort of thing.) 

And I was surprised to find the 

Tourist Hotel Corporation were 

the only ones allowed to build 

hotels but they could only do so 

in national parks.” 

Eric and Maureen worked at 

the Chateau Tongariro on Mt 

Ruapehu and newly-opened 

Avon Motor Lodge in Christchurch, 

before returning to England 

in 1966.

Cycling challenge for 84-year-old 

•From page 8 

“Then I had a call from Maurice 

Carter, the father of David 

Carter. I’d been very close to that 

family and they asked me if I’d 

be interested in coming back. So 

I did and I managed the Avon 

and the following year (the family) 

built the George Hotel, in 

about 1968.” 

When the Avon was sold, 

he and David Carter bought 

the historic Coachman Inn on 

Gloucester St. 

There was always the cycling 

though, and running too. 

He started that because it took 

up less time than cycling. 

In 1983, Mr Hunter won the 

teams section in the first ever 

Coast-to-Coast and went on to 

complete the teams event a further 

10 times, gaining another 

first and two seconds. 

“It was a lot harder in those 

days,” he says. “In 1983 the run 

over the Mingha-Deception (Goat 

Pass) route didn’t have the boardwalks 

so you had to go over the 

gullies on your backside.” 

The last time he raced was 

about four years ago aged 79. 

Race founder Robin Judkins 

confirmed he was the oldest person 

ever to complete the 243km 

event. 

He said he wasn’t at all 

alarmed by Eric’s age. 

“The oldest guy before him 

SPEED: Eric Hunter racing in Liverpool in 1956, at 22. 

was 77 and his partner was 75 so 

having really old people in the 

event, when they’re doing it in a 

team (wasn’t a problem.) He did 

the things which he’s very good 

at, the mountain run and the 

bike ride . . . he’ll go on doing 

these things until he’s 100. He’s 

extremely fit and very determined,” 

said Mr Judkins. 

Eric himself is more circumspect 

as far as hanging up the lycra 

goes: “I don’t know. I still go 

canoeing because I live in Sandy 

Bay and my driveway goes down 

to the beach. And apart from going 

on the bike five times a week 

I also play golf on a Thursday. So 

I don’t know – when the good 

Lord decides enough’s enough.”

Couch-Lewis, 

of 

Rapaki: 

“It is 

absolutely 

positive to 

reduce the 

plastic waste 

footprint on the environment 

but Countdown need to put 

the onus on their suppliers 

to curb plastic packaging 

too. I usually just carry my 

purchases.” 

Tania May, of

“I think that 

is a really 

good idea 

and I think 

that more 

supermarkets 

should do so 

as well. I usually use my own 

bags too.” 

Jo and Juniper Taylor-de

Property Management 

Opportunity 

We’re on the lookout for a Business Development Manager to join our Property Management 

team. In a country renowned for our “can-do” Kiwi attitude it’s not always best to manage your 

own rental property. There’s a lot that can go wrong, particularly dealing with the introduction 

of new rules around insulation and asbestos as well as increased awareness of issues 

regarding methamphetamine along with a myriad of other problems that can occur with a 

rental property. Relieving yourself of the ongoing hassle and disruption of this can be quite 

a weight off your shoulders. In our experience investment property owners who engage the 

use of a professional property manager are often a lot more relaxed about their investment 

property than the owner who may be at the ongoing beck-and-call of their tenants. 

With this in mind we’re keen to hire a Business Development Manager to our team. 

Someone who can go out and speak to private landlords about the advantages of having their 

investment property managed as well as being able to attract new business. If you think this is 

something you could be interested in give me a call to arrange an interview.

has made a

Long Term 

Plan in a bid 

to establish

• By Emily O’Connell 

A SUBMISSION on the city 

council’s Long Term Plan 

could see the establishment of 

a multipurpose riding arena at 

Allandale Domain. 

Harbour Equine Community 

co-ordinator Laila Aldridge has 

made a submission on behalf of 

the group to establish a Lyttelton 

Harbour Equine Hub, and will 

speak to city councillors about 

the proposal tomorrow. 

The group said its vision was to 

establish the hub by building an 

all-weather, covered riding arena. 

The equine community wants 

the city council to 

continue to fund drainage 

and existing riding 

facility upgrades at the 

domain over the next 

three years. 

Its submission said 

the domain and horse 

paddock had “deteriorated 

heavily” since the 

earthquakes. 

The group puts the 

deterioration down to poor 

drainage and weather exposure. 

But it believes the proposed facility 

would be beneficial. 

“The hub would provide the 

necessary infrastructure to grow

committee is hoping to re-turf 

its rugby field and wants funding 

from the city council’s Long 

Term Plan. 

It comes after the Lyttelton 

premier reserve team gained 

approval to enter division one 

of the Hawkins Metro Premier 

Reserve competition. 

Committee chairman David 

Sanders said the move is “exciting, 

not just for the rugby club, 

but the entire community.” 

However, the Canterbury 

Rugby Football Union is asking 

for a high standard of support 

facilities, including the grounds.

hearing on Monday about 

the committee’s plan to either

Funding needed to re-turf 

Lyttelton rugby ground 

programme. 

“The original turf is some 

decades old and a re-turf of the 

complete ground will provide 

an improved playing surface for 

many years to come.” 

Mr Sanders said all playing 

surfaces require a re-turf at some 

time. 

He asked that funding be 

granted for an independent 

review by a turf specialist to 

provide estimated costs and the 

best solution for the job. 

“Alternatively, at the very least, 

if a re-turf is not supported then 

a re-sow of the entire ground 

would be a good second option,” 

he said. 

To maintain the new turf, a 

seasonal fertiliser and irrigation 

programme would be needed to 

ensure it is kept to a high quality. 

The ground is home to the Lyttelton 

Rugby Club and Lyttelton 

Football Club.

Keep Redcliffs Park and the school too 

Friends of

Chris Doudney 

writes on

group about 

the decision to 

rebuild Redcliffs School on 

the park 

REDCLIFFS SCHOOL proudly 

thrived at the centre of our 

community from 1907 until the 

February 22, 2011, earthquake. 

With closure threatened, 

intensity of protest ensured that 

a decision was taken to return 

the school to Redcliffs but, in 

an apparent twist of spite, to 

another flood-prone site. 

The board of trustees that 

had so stalwartly fought for the 

school, and had so fully justified 

the safety of the school site, 

found itself forced into a corner. 

The then Minister of Education 

Hekia Parata gave it only two 

choices: A school on Redcliffs 

Park, or no school in Redcliffs, 

even though there was ample 

evidence that the existing school 

site was safe. 

There is no cogent reason for 

abandoning the present school. 

So why did the Ministry of 

Education want to spend $15 

million on a new school and

Anything You Can Imagine: 

Peter Jackson and the Making 

of Middle-earth 

by Ian Nathan, Andy Serkis 

The definitive history of Peter Jackson’s Middle-earth saga, 

Anything You Can Imagine takes us on a cinematic journey across 

all six films, featuring brand-new interviews with Peter, his cast & crew. 

From the early days of daring to dream it could be done, through the highs and lows of 

making the films, to fan adoration and, finally, Oscar glory. 

Anything You Can Imagine tells the full, dramatic story of how Jackson and his trusty 

fellowship of Kiwi filmmakers dared take on a quest every bit as daunting as Frodo’s, 

and transformed JRR Tolkien’s epic tale of adventure into cinematic magic, and then did 

it again with The Hobbit. 

Enriched with brand-new interviews with Jackson, his fellow filmmakers and many of the 

films’ stars, Ian Nathan’s mesmerising narrative whisks us to Middle-earth, to gaze over 

the shoulder of the director as he creates the impossible, the unforgettable, and proves 

that film-making really is ‘anything you can imagine’. 

Cross Her Heart 

by Sarah Pinborough 

The explosive follow-up from Sarah Pinborough, author of the NUMBER ONE Sunday 

Times bestseller Behind Her Eyes. 

SOMEONE IS LIVING A LIE… BUT WHO? Is it Lisa? - Haunted by a tragic past, all Lisa 

wants is a quiet life with her daughter, Ava. And when she meets a new man, things 

seem to be falling into place. But Lisa is hiding a secret so momentous it could shatter 

her entire world… 

Is it Ava? - When sixteen-year-old Ava saves a young boy’s life, she becomes a local 

hero. But never in a million years could she have anticipated the fallout of her actions… 

Is it Marilyn? - Marilyn has the perfect life. Her husband, her job, her house-she seems 

to have it all. But she could never admit to her best friend Lisa the lies she tells herself to 

get through the day… 

One moment will change these three women’s lives forever. And the secrets they’ve been 

keeping could destroy them all.

such risk, and he expressed 

doubt about risks of flooding at 

Redcliffs Park (it flooded twice

Redcliffs Park was to be

It was always a wetland, which 

is why it was never built on and 

was set aside as a park. It is so 

low-lying that it regularly

with all its dangers to small 

children, and is at risk from a 

Canterbury tsunami (which we 

now know can come without

properly consider the overall 

proposal. 

Thus the city council was 

persuaded to give away its 

only waterfront park with no 

consultation on the alternatives 

for the school. And the Minister 

for Greater Christchurch 

Regeneration Megan Woods 

was persuaded to permit the 

Ministry of Education to proceed 

without full consultation 

required by the RMA (which 

would have required the 

ministry to give proper reasons 

for taking the park). 

Meanwhile, the cycleway is 

increasingly used by residents 

and visitors alike, and the park 

used more and more. 

We must ensure that the 

school is reinstated at its present 

excellent site, happily in a 

matter of months, without the 

additional expense, delays and 

disruption of a new school build. 

Time for a rethink and a 

return to sanity.

Time to take care of your boat 

Lyttelton-based 

navigational safety officer 

Gary Manch gives a few 

boat maintenance tips 

WE’RE WELL into autumn now 

with trees dropping their leaves 

everywhere, weather getting 

colder and not as many people 

out and about on the water. 

This is the right time to consider 

what maintenance your 

boat requires. It doesn’t matter 

whether it’s a paddleboard or a 

10m power boat, all watercraft 

require maintenance. 

The first question you must 

ask yourself is: Do I have the 

right equipment and expertise to 

work on my boat? If the answer 

is no, then the best thing is to 

book your boat into your local 

boat dealer for a service and 

check-up. They have qualified 

people who will ensure everything 

is shipshape. 

If you are going to do your 

own maintenance over the winter, 

below is a list of questions 

I recommend asking yourself. 

They may not all apply to your 

vessel. 

Are the rigging, lines and sails 

in good order with no signs of 

tearing, wearing or damage? 

Is the exterior of the vessel in 

good shape, with no dings or 

Pirate’s Corner 

damage? Has the inboard or 

outboard motor (including any 

auxiliary) been serviced? Have 

you checked the propeller for 

damage, made sure there are no 

oil leaks from the motor when 

it’s running, and put the battery 

on charge over the winter? 

Is all the safety equipment on 

board in good order? Have you 

got a bailer, flares, a torch and 

two types of communication 

appropriate for your vessel? Is 

your first-aid kit current and in 

a waterproof container? Are all 

the cables and wiring in good 

condition and waterproofed 

where required? 

Have all lifejackets been 

checked for damage, especially 

ones that may sit in the locker 

or front of the boat and not get 

used regularly? Have inflatable 

lifejackets been manually 

inflated and checked? Have the 

cylinders been checked for corrosion? 

Are your anchors and 

anchor lines all in good condition? 

Have you checked all the 

shackles and ensured the pins 

are melded or have a cable tie 

locking them in place? Does the 

vessel comply with the new rules 

in relation to identification? It’s 

easier than you think, and winter 

is a good time to get it sorted 

while your boat may not be used 

as frequently. See ecan.govt.nz/ 

navsafety for information. 

If the boat is towed by a trailer, 

does it have a current warrant of 

fitness? Are the wheel bearings 

in good condition? Is the tow 

connection sound, with security 

chains working? 

If you can say yes to all the 

above, well done and safe boating. 

One final reminder is to 

always clean the hull and trailer 

wheels when going into different 

waterways, especially freshwater 

ones. This stops the spread of 

horrible things like lagarosiphon 

and didymo. 

Kairuri Lane is the new 

name for a private right of 

way in Heathcote, instead of 

the developer’s first choice 

of Reynard 

Kit Chambers – I totally 

agree with the sentiments of (developer 

David Fox) being outfoxed 

by city councillor Sara Templeton 

and the community board. It is 

my understanding the wording 

‘kai’ is Maori for food, food gathering, 

or food 

source and 

has little if 

any reference 

to ‘surveying’ 

in the area. 

‘Kairuri’ is a 

boys school 

in Kenya or 

village. It is interesting to note 

in Paul Corliss’s book In the 

Shadow of the Rock, the property 

mentioned was purchased by the 

Myers family in 1937 from Edwin 

Mouldey and was established 

and managed by the Chambers 

family from 1948 as initially a 

vineyard and then a stone fruit 

orchard, and the official name for 

that property was known as Villa 

Nova. 

Perhaps a more appropriate 

name in keeping with tradition of 

the valley such as Flinders, Rollin, 

Martindales, Flavell, Marsden etc 

– all names from the early settlers 

who passed by Villa Nova on their 

weary trek over the Bridle Path in 

the 1850s from the first four ships

Sumner cut loose in Brighton 

to take first victory at ‘sandpit’ 

• By Gordon Findlater 

SUMNER’S 61-14 victory over 

New Brighton on Saturday was 

the club’s first ever premier grade 

win against their rivals at the 

sandpit. 

In doing so, Sumner also captured 

the Falton Shield, which is 

played for annually between the 

two clubs. 

Fresh off their 51-26 win over 

University a week earlier, Sumner 

continued their rich vein of form 

to establish early dominance. 

“It was a good day at the office, 

the boys were hissing like 

cut snakes,” said Sumner coach 

Martin Dodgson. 

“We were really up for it; we 

had a good week of prep. It was 

probably the most concentrated 

I’ve seen the boys. It was kind of 

like a perfect storm, everything 

that could go right did go right.” 

It was also a good day at the 

office for former New Brighton 

SPORTS 

player Filimoni Waqainabete. 

The Sumner back ran in three 

tries on the wing. Meanwhile, 

Japanese flanker Hiroki Yamamoto 

grabbed a double. There 

were also tries for Dylan Nel, 

Tatsuki Tomuroand, Josh Toy 

and Tom Ziolo. 

Dodgson had some sympathy 

for New Brighton coach Scott 

Pawson who was missing several 

key players. He also heaped 

praise on the opposition coach 

for being gracious in defeat. 

“He had a whole lot of young 

boys playing and his top boys not 

released from the Crusaders,” 

said Dodgson. 

“They’re obviously a mightily 

proud club. If plans go the way 

we want then hopefully we’ll 

meet up with them again later in 

the year and I’m sure we’ll feel 

the back hand of that.” 

The chances of that happening 

are high with both clubs on track 

to qualify for the top six. 

Sumner’s bonus point win 

moves them to third in the 

Hawkins Metro Premier Cup, 

while New Brighton drop to fifth. 

Just three rounds remain until 

the competition is split into the 

top and bottom six for the business 

end of the season. 

Sumner travel to Burwood 

Park to take on 11th-placed 

Shirley on Saturday.

Big night for surf lifesavers 

THE SUMNER and Taylors 

Mistake clubs have finalists 

in the 2018 Surf Life Saving 

Canterbury-Tasman awards of 

excellence. 

Both clubs are up for nine 

awards on Saturday night. 

Every year, regional awards of 

excellence ceremonies are held 

around the country to officially 

recognise SLSNZ members for 

their work and dedication. 

The Canterbury-Tasman 

awards will be held at Sixty6 

in the Christchurch Casino. 

They will also feature lifeguards 

from the South Brighton, 

New Brighton, North Beach, 

Waimairi, Spencer Park, 

Waikuku, Rarangi, Nelson, 

Buller, Nelson and Kotuku clubs. 

The night will begin with the 

presentation of service awards, 

followed by the top junior and 

senior age group awards. 

Then all the champions’ 

trophies will be presented from 

the Canterbury championships 

held during the past season, 

followed by the presentation of 

major sporting and lifesaving 

awards, such as the lifeguard 

of the year and volunteer of the 

year. 

The evening will conclude 

with the announcement of 

club of the year. The winners 

of each category are then 

automatically selected as finalists 

in the national SLSNZ awards of 

excellence in September.

Redcliffs Tennis Club’s 

senior champs. 

The Matheson family 

won three of the trophies, 

with Andy Matheson 

beating last year’s club 

champ Dougal Shepherd 

in a tightly fought game. 

Andy also teamed up 

with daughter Georgia 

Matheson to win the 

mixed doubles. 

Georgia also won the 

women’s doubles with Sue 

Cook. 

CLUB DAY: (Left) – 

Senior men’s doubles

Shepherd with 

champions Marley 

Murray and Matthew 

Parratt. (Right) – Senior 

women’s doubles 

champions Sue Cooke 

and Georgia Matheson 

with runners up Charli 

Watts and Jo Watts. 

Families dominate Redcliffs tennis champs 

There was success for 

the Watts family as well. 

Charli Watts defeated 

Kirsten Murray to win the 

women’s singles title. She 

was also runner-up in the 

women’s doubles with Jo 

Watts and in the mixed 

doubles with Warrick 

Watts. 

In the men’s doubles, 

Shepherd and Shea 

McIntyre were narrowly 

beaten by the Marley 

Murray and Matthew 

Parratt.

Protect Against Chlorinated Water 

As the city is now chlorinating our drinking water you may be thinking about filtered water. The taste is definitely 

different, reminding us of the local swimming pool rather than something we want to gulp down. At Laser Plumbing 

Christchurch East, we specialise in installing whole house or partial home water filter systems. 

toP tiPs for A home WAter 

fiLter system: 

1. What water do you want to filter? 

If just drinking water look for a filter with a separate tap or a tap 

that you can switch between filtering or not. This allows the filter 

to last longer. 

Whole kitchen system? Look for a filter you can use with your 

existing tap. This will filter all your water through the tap and 

require more frequent replacement. 

Whole house system? This allows for great tasting water from 

any tap in the house as well as it will protect your fittings from 

hard water issues and give you nice soft water in your shower. 

2. Speed of the water flow. Filling your water bottle can be very 

slow with some water filters. 

3. How often do the cartridges need to be replaced? It is a bit like 

printers yeah sure you can buy them pretty cheap, but you’ll 

spend a heap replacing the cartridges. 

4. Looking for something that doesn’t cost too much but does 

the job? Look for a bench top filter. The filter sits on your bench 

rather than underneath out of sight. 

5. Looking for a filter that doesn’t need an extra tap on the 

bench? Look for a filter that uses your existing tap or a system 

with a tri flow tap that gives you 3 options hot/ cold/ cold 

filtered water.
