Surfers pay tribute to Rangi in paddle out

REMEMBERED: Well-known surfer Rangimaria King was honoured with a paddle out on Saturday.
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
A PADDLE out to honour a
well -known surfer who passed
away after a short battle with
cancer was held on Saturday.
Families, friends and fellow
surfers gathered at the north
ramp near the New Brighton
Pier to remember Rangimaria
(Rangi) Adrian Te Otimi King,
42, who died from liver cancer
on May 4.

surfer” and a “New Brighton
legend”, King was a professional
surfer whose career took off in
the late 1980s. He was a member
of the New Zealand scholastics
team and his career highlights
included beating former professional
surfer Martin Potter.
King was competing at the
Konica all stars skin contest
at Sandon Point, Wollongong,
when he beat Potter in the early
1990s.

Liquor
decision
could go
to appeal
• By Bridget Rutherford
LIQUORLAND IS considering
whether to appeal a decision that
rejected its application to open
a store in Phillipstown after the
community rallied to stop it
going ahead.
The district licensing committee
declined the Liquorland
application to operate a bottle
store on the corner of Ferry and
Aldwins Rds.
Liquorland has until May 30 to
appeal it.
Chief executive Brendon Lawry
said Liquorland was “disappointed”
with the committee’s
decision and was considering its
options regarding an appeal.
The decision came after objections
by health officials, residents,
police and nearby Linwood College.
The application came from Steve
Crotty and Michael Scott, who
also own Liquorland Riccarton.
They said the store would also
service Ferrymead to Sumner.
In its decision, the committee
acknowledged the pair had more
than 20 years of experience and
their systems and staff training
were of a high standard.
But it said the seller could not
control how the alcohol was
consumed.

RANGI KING got the traditional surfer
send-off on Saturday.
Fellow surfers gathered just off the north
ramp at Brighton to farewell the well-liked
42-year-old who succumbed to liver cancer
recently.
Rangi was one of the better surfers to come to of the region. A
professional whose career took off in the late 80s.
He finished a close second to Australian legend Mark Occhilupo
at the Konica All Stars skin contest at Wollongong, near Sydney.
Rangi started surfing at 11 and was a natural.
EXIT Surf Shop owner Tristan Bennett said no one had heard
of him before he went and competed in a Canterbury Scholastic
Surfing competition when he was 13 and “blew everyone away.”
Rangi got the farewell he deserved at the weekend.

Smith St chosen for pool site
A LOCATION has been chosen
for the Linwood-Woolston pool.
The Linwood Ave and Smith
St corner site was finalised on
Wednesday by the Linwood-
Central-Heathcote Community
Board.
The board considered 487 submissions
from the public, with
the clear majority favouring the
Smith St site.
“The response to this process
has shown us that the community
is really
on the same
page as the city
council when
it comes to this
project,” said
chairwoman
Sally Buck.
Sally Buck
“The council
went through
a thorough site selection process,
and identified 141 Smith St,
which is on a section next to
Linwood Park that faces onto
Linwood Ave, as the best location
for a pool.”
She said as the majority
favoured the site, it made the
board’s final decision “very
easy.”
“When we went out with the
options, people were also able to
suggest other sites they thought
might be suitable, and 89 per

cent of submitters came back in
favour of our preferred site.”
Submitters said the accessibility
of the location for local
schools and the public, and the
opportunity to create a social
space in the area, were the main
reasons for the choice.
“We’ve received plenty of
food for thought through the
submissions, including how
we can make sure we keep the
tennis courts at Linwood Park,
and overall the message was our
community wants this facility
right here and wants us to get
started straight away,” Ms Buck
said.
The next step is for the city
council to produce a concept
design that will show how the facility
looks and what it features.
This design will be developed
with feedback and input from
the wider community and key
stakeholders, including Linwood
Rugby League and South
Brighton Tennis Club.
The design process will begin
later this year.

What is the process for naming roads?
Heathcote
Ward city
councillor Sara
Templeton
explains
the process
behind road
naming in the city
THERE’S BEEN some
discussion within these pages
recently about the naming of a
new street in Heathcote Valley –
Kairuri Lane.
It’s clear from comments
that the city council’s processes
around road naming are opaque,
so I thought I’d have a go at
explaining them, using this one
as an example.
Under the city council’s roads
and right-of-way naming policy,
the names considered for new
roads must be requested by the
developer, who puts forward
three for consideration. The
community board is then able to
either approve a name or not.
In this instance the developer
had requested that Reynard Lane
be approved by the Linwood-
Central-Heathcote Community
Board, but the board
had concerns that it wasn’t in
keeping with other historic street
MEANING: The choice of the name ‘Kairuri Lane’ for a new subdivision on Bridle Path Rd has
attracted controversy.
names in the area, so asked the
developer to present some other
options.
He did and came back at the
following meeting with Reynard
Lane as his preferred option,
then Abney Lane (named for
an old surveying tool) and also
Kairuri Lane (the Maori word for
surveyor).
He had consulted with Mahaanui
Kurataiao Ltd, a resource
and environmental advisory
group, which agreed that the
name ‘Kairuri’ was culturally
appropriate.
The word kai in this case is
used as a prefix to verbs and
stipulates the person of the
action. For example mahi (work)
is kaimahi/worker and kōrero
(speak) is kaikōrero/speaker.
Rūri is a translated English
word for ruler, so Kairūri means
surveyor. The community board
has previously had concerns
about the road naming policy
and last year asked the city
council to review the policy to
enable better outcomes.
We were concerned that
there is currently little resident
involvement and also that it was
difficult to encourage developers
to present Te Reo names as
options.
The city has very few
Maori street names, even
with the long historic connection
to the area and so this was
one of the issues that we took
into consideration when we
approved the developers’ third
option.
I am hopeful that the review of
the policy will mean both greater
community involvement in road
naming processes, especially
in existing communities, and a
greater recognition of tangata
whenua. Ngā mihi
Hoon Hay school finalist in excellence awards
HOON HAY School has been
named a finalist in the 2018
Prime Minister’s Education
Excellence Awards.
The awards celebrate outstanding
education practices across the

Hoon Hay is a finalist in one
category, excellence in teaching

the winners in July,” she said.
The school wanted to ensure
that Māori achieve success and
enjoy the same level of academic
success in mathematics as other
students in their school.
To achieve this, the school
introduced and expanded their
use of a unique mathematical
problem solving approach across
the school to ensure that each
student has the opportunity to
engage in worthwhile mathematical
tasks.
To support this, the leadership
team prioritised mathematics as
the sole professional focus.
They successfully raised student
engagement and outcomes
in mathematics across the school
as a result.
Members of the award’s judging
panel are visiting the finalists
during May and June to see their
work and speak with all involved.
Winners from each category
will receive $20,000 and a
professional development
opportunity.
The Prime Minister’s supreme
award will then be selected
from the category winners. It is
presented to the early learning
service, school or kura that has
had the greatest influence on
education outcomes.
The winner of this will receive
an additional $30,000 and an
opportunity to represent New
Zealand in an international education
conference.
The awards ceremony will be
held in Wellington in July.

Former pro surfer honoured during paddle out
•From page 1
King narrowly came second to
Australian surfer Mark Occhilupo
in the Konica contest.
He began surfing at age 11 after
volunteers, including his father
Wally, helped start a surfing
programme as part of St Ambrose
Anglican Church’s drop-in
centre.
Faith Family Fellowship
Aranui soon found out the group
was interested in surfing and donated
their old surfboards from
the 1940s.
It wasn’t long before King
“caught the bug”. He took just
three weeks to pick up surfing
while the rest of the group took
about 18 months.
His sister Nga Anderson said
he would borrow other people’s
surfboards and they would laugh
at him until they saw him surf.
•From page 1
“We find that on the evidence
placed before us that the locality
is very vulnerable, contains a
high number of housing units for
those affected by mental illness
and addiction issues, including
alcohol addiction.”
The community rallied to stop
the proposal because it
was 50m from Thirsty Liquor,
and close to several others, with
121 submitting to object the
proposal.
The decision is the latest in a
string of successful community
campaigns to stop liquor stores
opening in their areas, including
Harewood.

John Hoskin said they were

“blew everyone away”.
“I have got people who would
come into the surf shop and say ‘I
have just been down at Brighton;
there is a kid out there destroying
intimidating people and families.
Medical Officer of Health
Cheryl Brunton said she was
pleased with the decision and it
was a win for the community.
“While the effect of this decision
is primarily local, it will help
contribute to reducing alcohol
related harm and perhaps also
encourage other communities to
voice their concerns about new
alcohol outlets.”

Photographer Warren Hawke,
who travelled with King for
photoshoots over a period of two
to three years, said he had an
uncanny natural surfing ability.
He said at the beginning of his
career, King started to win contests
on surfboards which were
not even up to high performance
level at the time.
He was quickly picked up as a
professional and sponsored by
the Exit Surf Shop, surf clothing
and board company O’Neill,
Linwood Ward city councillor
Yani Johanson welcomed the
decision.
“It’s good news for the
community, they’ve worked
really hard.”
Mr Lawry said Liquorland
abided by its obligations under
the Sale and Supply of Alcohol
Act, and ran information
programmes about responsible
consumption.
“Our aim is to offer consumers
choice for occasions with friends
and family and for celebrations
of all types, in a safe and sensible
way.”
In his evidence during the
hearing, Phillipstown Neighbourhood

King’s pro career lasted
more than 10 years into his early

After he stopped surfing
professionally, he continued to
teach surfing in New Brighton.
Close friend Sam Johnston,
who started out surfing with
King, said he was unique in

guitarist and good at any sport he
played.
Another friend Haydo Brain
said King was one of the most

Crime at post-quake drinking spots
A new report has
analysed the city’s
post-quake drinking
spots and whether
crime followed.
Bridget Rutherford
looks at the findings
THEY WERE the places where
people went to drink when the
popular central city nightlife
spots closed following the
February 22, 2011, earthquake.
Some were makeshift nightclubs
in the suburbs, some were
restaurants that turned into bars
after dinner service finished,
while others were places many
never would have frequented
before the quakes.
But at the time there was little
to choose from.
Now, a new report, Postearthquake
analysis of crime and
alcohol outlets in Christchurch,
commissioned by the Health
Promotion Agency, has analysed
where people tended to drink
following the quake, where the
liquor outlets were, and if there
was an increase in crime as a
result.
The report, by Greg Breetzke,
Benjamin Elley and Jarrod
Gilbert, looked at the period
between 2009-2014, and six case
studies in particular.
It found the areas where more
people tended to go to drink following
the quake mostly resulted
in a temporary spike in crime
because there were more people
in the area.
However, most had returned
to normal as the central city
revitalised.
The case studies included the
central city, Merivale, Riccarton,
Church Corner, Hornby and
Papanui.
The central city saw little offending
because popular spots
such as The Strip, Poplar Lane
and Sol Square had closed.
While some bars were available
in the central city, such as on St
Asaph St, Victoria St and Lincoln
BINGE: The report found the suburbs had an increase in patronage, with many existing bars and
restaurants transforming into nightclubs.
Rd, the report found they were
spread apart and little crime was
recorded.
The suburbs were where patronage
increased significantly,
the report said.
Merivale was one of those areas,
with bars such as Aikmans,
JDV and Bardello clustered
around Merivale Mall becoming
more popular.
Some bars in the area said they
had seen a “significant” increase
in patronage, and an increased
range of patrons including a mix
of business people, tradesmen
and younger patrons with disposable
income.
The worst year for crime was
in 2012, but it had decreased significantly
since then. Dishonesty
crime, such as burglary, vehicle
conversion or theft, and property
damage was the most common.
The crime rate in Merivale was
relatively low compared to the
other case studies.
However, it received a lot of
public interest in 2013, when
former Black Caps player Jesse
Ryder was assaulted outside Aikmans
and hospitalised.
The report found there was an
increase in offending between
midnight and 1am in 2011, which
police said could have been a
result of the shortlived nightclub.
Since then crime had dropped.
Riccarton was another area
that became more popular with
bars such as the Running Bull,
Fox & Ferrett and The Craic becoming
popular. Police began to
focus on the area as a result.
The report said a lot of bars
converted into “nightclub style”
bars to keep up with the patronage
levels.
In 2011/12, crime in the area
around Westfield Riccarton, increased
by 26 per cent, but it had
since dropped back down.
Night-time offending increased
substantially in 2012, and to a
lesser extent in 2013, between
10pm-midnight, the report
found. It dropped back down in
2014.
The report said a lot of offending
was down to deliberate
enforcement projects by police on
alcohol ban breaches in the area.
While Church Corner had seen
a large increase in the number of
liquor licences, most were restaurants,
not bars.
There was no increase in corresponding
offending.
The majority of liquor licences
in Hornby were bars, sports clubs
and liquor stores, and there was a
lower density of outlets compared
to the other areas.
The average number of offences
rose by 11 per cent in 2011 and
2013, which had since remained
steady.
The report comes after the city
council was forced to scrap its
Local Alcohol Policy in November.
It has since agreed to develop
a new one, which would restrict
where and when alcohol can be
sold.
Community Action on Youth
And Drugs senior project worker
Paul McMahon said alcohol was
the most harmful drug because it
was so easy to access.
CAYAD wants the city council
to introduce a targeted rate on
off-licence premises, including
supermarkets.
Mr McMahon said pre-loading
was more common than drinking
at bars and if alcohol was
more expensive, it would act as a
deterrence.
“Harmful drinking has
increased since 2011 across the
board. The amount we’re drinking
keeps going up.”
He said it was more common
for women aged 24-25.
Canterbury Metro area prevention
manager acting Inspector
Paul Reeves said police did a lot
of work in the alcohol space.
“As well as collaborating with
key partners, such as the District
Health Board and the city council,
there are specialist police staff
who prevent harm through the
monitoring of licences and by
creating a safe drinking environment.”
The research found existing
licences adapted to suit larger
numbers.
It said existing “tavern-style”
premises had transformed to “de
facto nightclubs”, while some
restaurants became “quasi bars”
switching to alcohol service after
dinner.
The places that saw large
increases in patronage were clustered
around malls and other food
outlets, and easily accessible.
The report said as the central
city revitalised, with places such
as The Terrace opening, it was
important to look at how to
“minimise disruption.”

From one Coastal to another
• By Jacob Page
COASTAL SPIRIT midfielder
Lauren Dabner may be
chasing her football dream
halfway round the world,
but her heart belongs in
Christchurch.
The former Riccarton High
School student is enjoying
her off-season by playing for
the Coastal premier women’s
team, safe in the knowledge
she still has more to prove in
the United States.
The 22-year-old is set to
play for Coastal Carolina
University from July after
leaving Texas Tech.
The exercise science
major said her first year of
a scholarship in Texas was
tough on many levels but the
struggles were worth it.
“I certainly had thoughts
about not continuing but I’m
so glad that I got through that
first year because it’s been so
worth it,” she said.
“It’s a combination of a lot
of things – you’re a long way
from home, in unfamiliar
surroundings playing in a new
league.”
The former under-17 New
Zealand representative has
also been part of a World Cup
bid.
Living abroad and playing
women’s football in a global
stronghold has had its
challenges.
“The game is more physical
(in the US); the standard is
very high,” she said.
Coastal Carolina University
is in NCAA division one and
Dabner is motivated to put her
stamp on things.
“They’re a young team who
have finished runner-up in
their conference the past two
seasons so to get the that top
MIDFIELD ACE: Lauren
Dabner hopes to win her
conference and make the
national NCAA women’s
football tournament in
the United States with her
new college team this
year.

SPORTS
finish would be great.”
Dabner said she was always
excited to come home and play
for Coastal Spirit.
“I’ve been with them for
seven seasons and they’ve
been very supportive with
me chasing this dream and
allowing me to come home
and play when I’m available.”
Dabner has put her New
Zealand international career
on hold until her studies and
scholarship are complete.
“If you want to be part of
that set up you have to be in
Auckland and right now I’m
committed to my studies and
helping my team reach their
goals.
“I’m still young enough that
I can come back, too, when
things change.”
Right now, Dabner wants
to help her two Coastal teams
earn victories.

100 games for Sydenham stalwart
SPORTS
• By Jacob Page
IT’S SAFE to say Sydenham
flanker Reuben Harvey was more
eager to remember his 100th
game for the club on Saturday
than he was his 50th.
The evergreen flanker reached
the century mark after a tenure
spanning about 12 years.
He celebrated the milestone
with a 31-3 win over Burnside.
Milestone games have not been
kind to the 35-year-old who, in
his 50th cap and blazer game,
was benched and then suffered a
nasty eye socket injury.
“I’d missed Tuesday training
that week because of work so
the coach benched me to set an
example, even though it was the
last game of the season,” he said.
“I got on and ended up
smashing my eye socket late in
the game, so I missed the after
match and had to have a rather
awkward blazer ceremony the
following week.”
In spite of returning to
Blenheim where he grew up for
a short period, as well as stints
playing rugby in the United
Kingdom, Harvey said he has
never wanted to play for another
club in Christchurch other than
Sydenham.
“I was always drawn to the
great club atmosphere and I liked
the nod to history that they had
with the blazers and that sort of
thing.”
Harvey received a gold pin to
attach to his club blazer in commemoration
of his 100th game.
He said while his wife “would
probably like me to retire today,”
he believes he still has plenty to
offer.
“I want to keep going until the
wheels fall off,” he said.
“I’d hate to look back when I’m
60 and think that I could have
gone for another season.”
One motivation for Harvey
has been to give Sydenham an
elusive premier title.
“We thought we were close last
year, and in the sheds I think we
realised we’d let ourselves down
by not winning it all,” he said.
“We have a team this year
which has the potential to do it.”

flanker Reuben Harvey
played his 100th game for the

Photo finish for racing’s ‘lucky charm’
• By Jacob Page
AFTER 60 years of covering
horse racing in Canterbury,
photographer Colin Berry has
retired – sort of.
The 81-year-old, who lives in
Hornby, has been a regular sight
at Canterbury race meetings,
especially Riccarton Park gallops
and Addington trots, since the
late 1950s.
He has been photographing
winning horses, delighted
trainers, drivers and jockeys, and
ecstatic race owners for most of
his adult life – and says he will
miss it.
“A few years ago I had a double
hip replacement and I feel like
I’ve been slowing down since,”
he said.
“It’s always been great to photograph
happy people.
“A lot of owners or trainers
would come up to me early in the
night and say to me ‘I’m looking
forward to seeing you after
my race’ as if I was their lucky
charm.”
Born and bred in Christchurch,
Mr Berry began his career
during a three-month period of
compulsory military training
near the Ohakea Air Force Base
in Palmerston North.
He became a photographer’s
assistant at Addington Raceway
in 1956 doing photo finishes, and
the rest as they say is history.
​As well as racing shots, he also
did horse breeding photography.
I won’t miss the cold of the
winter night meetings but I’ve
just loved the camaraderie that
you have from working in the
industry,” Mr Berry said.
“There was a lot of mixed emotions
on the night but my son
Ajay has taken over for me and
he’s just fantastic.
“I’ll just be the messenger boy
now, delving the odd photo and
doing odd jobs in the office.”
Mr Berry said he remembers
covering the Addington Raceway
grandstand fire in 1961 as one
of New Zealand’s best standard
bred horses, Cardigan Bay, led a
race from start to finish,
He said Christian Cullen remained
one of his favourite horses,
not only for his dominance
on the track, but also because of
his physical make up.
“He’d be one of the best I’ve
seen, he was just so well put
together physically and a joy to
photograph,” Mr Berry said. “It’s
very hard to compare horses
from different eras, though.”
Mr Berry said technology advancement
has made the biggest
difference in race photography
over time.
“Back in the day, to try to get
a photo of a horse with all four

of its feet off the ground while
warming up was a real skill,” he
said.
“I’d listen from the beat and
the pace of the hooves . . . now
you can snaps 14 photos off in
1sec.
“That happiness of nailing the
perfect shot when you only had
one shot at it back in the day is
replaced by frustration if you
don’t get it these days with the
quality cameras.”

This could be the deal of the year for
builders/developers.
The owners of these 2 very spacious
apartments have cash settled with their
insurer and are selling the 2 properties
combined on an ‘as is, where is’ basis.
On offer is two 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom
apartments that both feature extremely
spacious open plan living, and modern
kitchen/dining area. The views from these
properties are worth the visit alone with the
top floor apartment having uninterrupted
panoramic views. Both offer the space of
a traditional family home combined with
the easy-care benefits of apartment living,
including an inbuilt lift!
Set on the lower slopes of Cashmere, you
are within walking distance to a great choice
of cafes as well as being close to Cashmere
Primary School and in the Cashmere High
School.
For those looking for a home plus income
why not live in one apartment and rent out
the other? This also makes a great buying
option for extended families.
Make no mistake the decision to sell has
been made and there is no looking back
so ensure you book your viewing ASAP,
options like this rarely come to the market
and there can only be one new owner.
Please note that 2A & 2B properties are to
be sold together.

(98 Moorhouse Ave, Grenadier House) No

a few one hit wonders thrown in for
good measure. Catch them this

And on Friday night there’s Super
Rugby action live with Crusaders v

The Club Bistro has a tasty new
winter menu. With Mains priced
from as little as $14 through to $24,

excellent value. The Bistro is open
