LANDMARK: Governors Bay artist Russ Harris with a woodblock print 

of the historic Governors Bay jetty. His work will be auctioned along 

with 19 other artworks at the Governors Bay Hotel on Saturday. The 

money raised will go towards restoring the 300m wooden jetty. 

Jetty art going on the block 

Construct art exhibition and 

auction, which organisers hope 

will garner much-needed funds 

for the Governors Bay Jetty 

Restoration Trust. 

The artworks vary greatly in 

style, size, colour and execution 

– but are all linked by the common 

motif of the jetty. 

Mr Harris is one of only two 

artists to portray the “ricketyrackety” 

structure from the 

endpoint looking back towards 

the land. 

“The structure is so interesting, 

how it’s held together. Now 

it’s unused the birds – terns, 

oyster catchers, shags have 

made it their own,” said Mr 

Harris, who uses a letterpress 

print process employing an 

“arcane” machine at the Ferrymead 

Heritage Park print 

shop. 

Artists have all worked individually 

on their pieces but will 

get to meet each other at Saturday’s 

auction, something Mr 

Harris was looking forward to.

Hotel open at 3pm with a free

Idea to 

gift 

Maori 

reserve 

sparks 

debate 


GIFTING A former Maori 

burial ground to local runanga 

is an ill-considered act of 

privatisation, says the Purau 

Residents Association. 

There have been ongoing discussions 

about returning ownership 

and management of Purau Maori 

Reserve over the past century and 

in December last year the local 

hapu Ngati Wheke asked the city 

council to explore the option. 

A city council report supporting 

the transfer was tabled at a Banks 

Peninsula Community Board 

meeting last week. 

The report gave two options, one 

of which would reclassify the land 

from recreation reserve to historic 

reserve. 

The second and preferred option 

was initiating a process to revoke 

the reserve status, enabling the city 

council to then consider “returning 

the land to Te Hapu o Ngati 

Wheke.”

I SENSE a bit of a blue coming over plans 

to gift the Purau Maori Reserve to local 

runanga. 

The Purau Residents Association doesn’t 

want the city council to go ahead with the 

plan (see page 1). 

They have been in discussions with Rapaki Maori on behalf of 

the local hapu Ngati Wheke since December. 

The residents’ association says gifting the site to Rapaki would 

be an act of privatisation. 

A city council report supporting the transfer was tabled at a 

Banks Peninsula Community Board meeting last week. 

The report gave two options, one of which would reclassify 

the land from recreation reserve to historic reserve, the other 

returning it to Maori, which is the preferred option.

Urumau bike tracks to stay or go? 

Reserve plan 

rejected again 


AN UPDATED development 

plan for Lyttelton’s Urumau 

Reserve has been rejected for 

the second time. 

The sticking point is whether 

some mountain bike tracks in 

the reserve should be removed 

or retained. 

The Banks Peninsula Community 

Board first considered 

the plan on April 16 but sought 

clarification 

on the legality 

and compliance 

of tracks 

within the reserve 

and their 

environmental 

impact, along 

Jed 

O’Donoghue 

with traffic 

and parking 

issues. 

A new report 

presented to the board last 

week said advice from the city 

council’s legal team was that 

tracks can develop over time 

simply by people repeatedly using 

a particular area. 

But it appeared city council 

staff had “worked with (reserve 

management) committee members 

on track alignment and the 

like” in the years since the 2008 

plan was approved, said the 

report. 

It concluded the Urumau 

mountain bike tracks complied 

with design guidelines and 

standards, there was no increased 

sedimentation run-off 

caused by the tracks, and they 

avoided native planting sites as 

much as possible. 

But the board again backed 

away from adopting the plan 

and has asked the committee 

to meet with an independent 

facilitator to decide whether to 

close any tracks before the plan 

is adopted. 

The report noted that city 

council ranger staff were “aware 

of the, at times, fractious nature 

of the committee.” 

It said discussions and 

decisions about the mountain 

bike track network made at 

committee meetings were 

often “poorly formalised and 

subsequently poorly recorded in 

the minutes.” 

Tracks can only be removed 

UNDECIDED: 

The future of 

current and 

proposed 

mountain 

bike tracks 

in Urumau 

Reserve is still 

up in the air. 

by the board as part of the 

development plan process and 

before final adoption. 

Board member Jed 

O’Donoghue said it was 

important to get the plan right 

because, once adopted, it would 

have to go before the full city 

council if any tracks needed to 

be removed. 

“We want to be very clear 

about what is and isn’t going to 

stay there and want everybody 

to be comfortable with that.” 

Mr O’Donoghue said no date 

had been set for the meeting.

In Brief 

BYLAW CHANGE SUPPORT 

Almost three-quarters of Akaroa 

residents think freedom camping 

is causing significant problems and 

80 per cent say the current ban 

on non-self-contained freedom 

camping is failing, an online 

survey shows. The survey of 280 

residents will form the basis of a 

report on possible alterations to 

the bylaw which will be considered 

by the city council and consulted 

on later this year. 

$80K FOR CHOLMONDELEY 

More than $80,000 was given to 

support the work of Cholmondeley 

Children’s Centre at its first annual 

fundraising event. The Little Gems 

Project’s ‘Denim, Diamonds and 

Dancing’ evening held at Sixty6 on 

Peterborough St raised the money 

through ticket sales, sponsorship 

and auction items. Chief executive 

Arron Perriam said the funds 

would be used to provide respite 

care and education for children.” 

MORE LOOS PLEASE 

Modular toilets – not port-a-loos 

– could be used to help manage 

cruise ship arrivals in Akaroa 

next season. The Banks Peninsula 

Community Board has asked 

city council staff to investigate a 

range of options for dealing with 

the added pressure thousands 

of visitors put on the Akaroa’s 

infrastructure.

Awards for community work, conservation 


Two Lyttelton women – 

Margaret Jefferies and 

Alison Ross – have been 

recognised for their 

contributions to community 

and the environment in the 

Queen’s Birthday honours 

list 

For services to the community, 

the chairwoman of Project 

Lyttelton, Ms Jefferies has 

become a member of the New 

Zealand Order of Merit. 

Ms Jefferies is a mother of 

five adult children (including 

two sets of twins) and a former 

secondary school teacher. 

Her involvement as a 

volunteer in the innovative grass 

roots organisation spans 13 

years. 

She said it was wonderful to be 

acknowledged both as a woman 

and a volunteer, as women made 

up a huge part of the voluntary 

sector and their work often 

remained invisible. 

Project Lyttelton’s wealth of 

initiatives have included various 

festivals including the popular 

Lyttelton Festival of Lights, waste 

reduction, a community-grown 

dinner, school and community 

gardens, dual purpose welcome 

and reusable shopping bags for 

new residents, a voucher programme 

for local businesses, and 

worm farm bins for processing 

kitchen waste. 

In 2005 Ms Jefferies introduced 

the Lyttelton Harbour 

TimeBank, in which people in 

the community can trade their 

skills and time on an equal basis 

– one hour’s gardening equals 

one hour’s house painting. 

The TimeBank now has 

around 780 members and as of 

2015 around 2000 hours of people’s 

time was being exchanged 

on average per month. The Lyt- 

Margaret Jefferies 

telton TimeBank has inspired the 

establishment of 30 other time 

banks around New Zealand. 

She is a member of the 

Leadership in Communities programme 

and a board member of 

Living Economies Educational 

Trust. 

Previously she has chaired 

the Lyttelton community radio 

station and helped set up the 

Lyttelton Harbour Business Association. 

Ms Jefferies set up three national 

conferences called Spirit at 

Work, which looked at spirituality 

in the workplace. 

She said she was particularly 

proud of the way Project Lyttelton 

operated. 

“As a group we tend to look 

at things from an “appreciative 

inquiry” point of view which is 

focusing on things that are going 

well because then the energy 

flows and people get excited and 

the things that aren’t going so 

well sort of slip in behind and 

get in there too. It’s being valuesbased 

and doing things in an 

inclusive manner.” 

Alison Ross 

Ms Ross has been given 

the Queen’s Service Medal for 

services to conservation. 

The self-described “quiet conservationist” 

formed the Lyttelton 

Environment Group in 1987 

and has continued as secretary to 

the present day. 

Ms Ross was the foundation 

secretary/manager of Otamahua/ 

Quail Island Ecological Restoration 

Trust from 1997 until her 

retirement in 2008. 

During her tenure she raised 

$500,000 and around 70,000 native 

trees were planted. 

She has been involved with 

Heritage New Zealand, co-edited 

a second edition of Otamahua- 

Quail Island – a Link with the 

Past, and secured a grant for a 

restoration plan for the Scott/ 

Shackleton stables on Quail 

Island. 

Between 2003 and 2010 she 

organised thrice annual conservation 

volunteer exchanges with 

students from the United States 

and New Zealand. 

From 2008 to 2010 she secured 

funding to enable Lyttelton 

Environment Group to sponsor 

classes from low decile Christchurch 

schools to participate in 

planting days. 

She has been involved with 

local education at the Lyttelton 

Kindergarten and Lyttelton 

Main School, including as the 

foundation secretary on the 

board of trustees and leading the 

move to have free swimming for 

the three local schools. 

Ms Ross was appointed to the 

Banks Peninsula Wastewater 

Working Party from 2003 to 

2007 and has led submissions 

on resource consent applications 

and for several Environment 

Court hearings.

Debate over Maori reserve gift idea 

•From page 1 

But association spokesman 

Thomas Kulpe questioned 

whether gifting the land was the 

right step. 

While it was understandable 

the runanga would seek ownership, 

he said, it was only because 

the city council had “done nothing” 

to recognise and protect the 

area from inappropriate use such 

as eating, drinking and playing 

games. 

He wanted the reserve fenced 

off immediately – something 

that “should have been done 

years ago.” 

“I want to see it reclassified as 

an historic reserve and I want 

to see proper recognition of our 

common history by the city 

council,” said Mr Kulpe. 

The whole of the Purau area 

had history which was not just 

“private to Maori” but a common, 

shared history, he argued. 

“To rob ‘Peter’ (of a public reserve) 

and hand it to Maori just 

because Ngai Tahu has a lot of 

political influence is not right,” 

said Mr Kulpe. 

He raised doubts about the veracity 

of information supporting 

the land transfer from the city 

council to Rapaki Runanga – the 

modern day representative of 

Ngati Wheke. 

LAND: Ownership of the former Maori burial ground on Purau Ave is being sought by local

Rapaki representative Yvette 

Couch-Lewis did not reply to a 

request for comment. 

The supporting information 

in the city council report was 

“biased, incorrect and has omissions,” 

Mr Kulpe said, questioning 

the archeological evidence 

cited. It was written by Te Hapu 

o Ngati Wheke and is a summary 

of historical information 

that was included in a cultural 

values report commissioned by 

the city council last year at the 

recommendation of Mahaanui 

Kurataiao Ltd, an advisory 

company set up to represent 

the interests of six Ngai Tahu 

Runanga. 

The report was left on the table 

while the board seeks clarification 

of the issues raised by Mr 

Kulpe.

School site to 

be farewelled 

AFTER SEVEN years operating 

away from its neighbourhood, 

Redcliffs School is now ready to 

return to Redcliffs, with a special 

ceremony tomorrow morning. 

A farewell to the old school 

buildings will be done by way of a 

poroporoaki (Maori farewell and 

blessing) at 11am. 

The school, and community 

members, will then cross the road 

to Redcliffs Park for a whakawatea 

(blessing) and sod-turning on the 

new site. 

Members of both Rapaki and 

Tuahiwi Runanga will be present 

to bless the land. 

All the school children and staff 

will attend, along with the Ministry 

of Education, city council 

members and dignitaries. 

Demolition of the old school is 

imminent. 

Preparations completed in 

anticipation of this include removing 

all items of any value or 

significance to be either reused in 

the new school, sent to schools in 

Vanuatu, or sold. 

Ground works expected to 

commence at Redcliffs Park 

shortly include detailed archaeological 

work. 

It is anticipated to take several 

months, during which time the 

playground and sports fields will 

remain open.

Conquering Everest at 

home raises $3720 


MT PLEASANT woman Heidi 

Anderson has raised $3720 for 

the Himalayan Trust. 

The fitness instructor last 

month walked and biked the 

height of Mt Everest on the Port 

Hills – 8848m over 31 days – to 

raise money in support of the 

trust’s work. 

She also held a movie night 

and raffle at the Hollywood 

cinema in Sumner, which combined 

raised $1700. 

Over the course of the month, 

Ms Anderson walked up Mt 

Herbert in a time of 3hr 26min. 

She said she nearly turned 

back after walking into a field of 

extremely vocal cows. 

“I heard them 10min before 

I saw them. It turned out they 

were more frightened of me 

with my walking pole. The challenge 

got me through otherwise 

I’d have been back after 45min,” 

she said. 

Ms Anderson also hiked 

Purple Peak in Akaroa, ran up 

plenty of stairs and did a lot of 

cycling on the hills. 

She was thankful for all those 

who had supported her in completing 

the challenge. 

The Himalayan Trust was 

founded by Sir Edmund and 

Louise Hillary in the 1960s to 

bring better educational and 

medical facilities to Nepal.

Shellfish limit long-standing 


THE SHELLFISH catch limit 

in the Avon-Heathcote Estuary 

hasn’t changed since 1986. 

Last week the Bay Harbour 

News last week reported on 

researcher Stephanie Hampson’s 

finding that cockle numbers had 

fallen dramatically between 2012 

and 2017. 

A Ministry of Primary Industries 

spokesperson confirmed the 

current limit has been in place 

since the Fisheries (Amateur 

Fishing) Regulations were set in 

1986. 

Ms Hampson said the combination 

of poor nutrients in 

the water and pressure from 

collecting was responsible for the 

serious decline in numbers, from 

around 400 per sq m five years 

ago to between 50 and 80 per sq 

m in some areas. 

She said the results indicated 

the catch limit of 150 cockles per 

person per day was too high and 

needed to be reduced or even a 

ban put in place. 

An MPI spokesperson said 

they would be interested in learning 

more about the results of Ms 

Hampson’s research once it had 

been reviewed. 

It was not currently aware of 

any concerns being raised about 

the estuary. 

“In key areas where we are 

CONCERNED: Stephanie 

Hampson’s research into 

the health of shellfish in the 

estuary may prompt a review 

of daily catch limits. 

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER 

aware of concerns regarding the 

sustainability of cockle harvesting 

we commission surveys to 

estimate the health of cockle 

beds. If there is cause for concern 

a range of management tools are 

available.” 

Shellfish take limits varied 

throughout the country and 

reflected the “best available information 

on what is sustainable,” 

said the spokesperson. 

In some areas the limit is a 

result of local area management, 

such as within mataitai fishery 

reserves or taiapure – local 

fisheries such as Rapaki and 

Koukourorata mataitai on Banks 

Peninsula.

ENVIRONMENTAL: 

The Lyttelton 

Port Company’s 

resource consent 

for dredging has 

been reduced from 

35 to 25 years. 

Negotiating concessions 

earns Ngai Tahu praise 

NGAI TAHU has been 

praised for challenging the 

Lyttelton Port Company’s 

dredging consent, resulting 

in concessions from LPC. 

The company was 

granted resource 

consent last July to 

deepen the shipping 

channel, but Ngai 

Tahu lodged an 

appeal on environmental 

and cultural 

grounds. 

A major concession 

from the 

mediation with Ngai 

Tahu was the reduction 

from a 35-year resource 

consent to 25 years. 

Linwood-Central-Heathcote 

Community Board 

member Darrell Latham, 

who was critical of the city 

Darrell 

Latham 

council for not being more 

active in the lead up to the 

consent being granted last 

year, said Ngai Tahu had 

“led the way” in ensuring 

the marine 

environment was 

protected. 

“Ngai Tahu 

deserves 

congratulations 

for this, as does 

LPC in conceding 

to improved 

conditions to 

protect the marine 

environment. 

Both have shown that they 

care for the environment 

and for the port and 

Canterbury’s continued 

economic development,” 

said Dr Latham. 

Stricter environmental 

controls announced last 

week include requiring 

the company to provide 

a programme of its proposed 

dredging a month 

in advance to Ngai Tahu, 

and to liaise with groups 

including mussel farm 

owners Ngai Tahu and 

Sanford, and Environment 

Canterbury. 

Lyttelton Port must also 

provide them with records 

of the timing, quantities 

and location of dumped 

sediment.

from a previous consent at 

Awaroa/Godley Head, Livingstone 

Bay, Breeze Bay

More pest traps for Sumner 


RODENTS beware. 

Predator Free Sumner has 

topped up its supply of traps. 

Co-ordinator Gabe Ross said 

an increase in the organisation’s 

Kiwibank grant means it could 

offer another 140 subsidised 

traps, taking the total to 365. 

May was a record month for 

the group, with 101 recorded pest 

kills. 

“We are at peak 

‘rattyness’,” said 

Mr Ross. 

“Our cumulative 

total (since October) 

is 345 animals, 

of which 165 are 

Gabe Ross 

rats, two weasels, 

46 hedgehogs, 52 

possums and 72 mice, with the 

balance being rodents that were 

scavenged before they could be 

identified.” 

He is hoping the removal of 

the rats in particular will boost 

native bird numbers over the 

next nesting season and is keen 

to get as many people as possible 

participating in the national 

Landcare Garden Bird Survey 

between June 30 and July 8. 

“This will be a useful way to 

get some measurement of how 

bird numbers and species change 

as the trapping continues. 

“We will be arranging a trap

wooden box. 

pick-up day every couple of 

weeks until our supply is gone, 

so keep an eye on our Facebook 

page and community notice 

boards for updates,” said Mr 

Ross. 

A Victor rat trap in a timber 

box costs $8, a Trapinator possum 

trap is $20 and a Doc200 rat 

and mustelid trap is $35. 

People are asked to set traps 

in their gardens only – not on 

lifestyle blocks or reserves. 

They need to be kept baited, 

ideally checked once a week, and 

any catches reported to Predator 

Free Sumner with the date, animal, 

trap-type and bait. 

In another welcome development, 

Cranford St PlaceMakers 

has donated materials for building 

an extra 150 rat trap boxes. 

A working bee will be 

arranged in the next few weeks 

where residents can assemble a 

box, receive a Kiwibank supplied 

rat trap, and take the set away for 

free.

AKAROA Museum’s suite 

of three new long-term 

exhibitions, developed and 

installed after the repair and 

strengthening of its buildings, 

have received national 

recognition. 

Nominated in the category of 

‘exhibition excellence – social 

history’ in the Service IQ New 

Zealand Museum Awards, the 

museum made it to the finals in 

this category. 

The judges said the redeveloped 

exhibitions looked “like 

a ‘jewel’ of an experience” and 

were a great exemplar for small 

museums. 

“Perhaps the success of this 

redevelopment is in its use of 

old approaches – object-led, 

good design, interesting stories 

well executed.” 

Ngā Taenga mai Arrivals, 

Land and Sea and Tales of 

Banks Peninsula are the three 

exhibitions. 

Museum director Lynda 

Wallace praised collections 

manager Daniel Smith, who 

curated them. 

“He set out to showcase our 

great collections and let the 

objects shine so we are thrilled 

that the judges picked up on 

that,” said Ms Wallace.

for Akaroa Museum

“It is always hard for smaller 

museums to compete with the 

larger institutions with their 

bigger budgets, and in the social 

history exhibition category this 

year we were up against some 

of the biggest – Auckland War 

Memorial Museum, Museum 

of Transport and Technology, 

the Waitangi National Trust 

Treaty House and Tairāwhiti 

Museum in Gisborne. So to be 

named a finalist in this category 

this year was really something 

to celebrate.” The winner of the

What is in a name? 

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 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. 

CONCERNS: 

The choice 

of name – 

Kairuri Lane 

– for a new 

subdivision 

on Bridle 

Path Rd has 

attracted 

controversy. 

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 

We said: 

Estuary shellfish are 

under threat 

You said: 

Bernie McLean – 

Having observed the 

unmitigated looting of 

shellfish over the previous 

several decades I 

think that a total ban is 

perhaps now necessary 

and easier to police. 

Diane McCarthy – Cockles 

are eaten by estuary birdlife. 

Humans need to respect this. 

Biodiversity means keeping 

all lifeforms viable. I support a 

total ban on collecting cockles, 

enforced by volunteers until 

viable numbers of shellfish are 

re-established in the Avon- 

Heathcote estuary. Monitoring 

this by further research is 

critical. Then a quota per adult 

gatherer can be reset that 

maintains a balance. However, 

thought needs to be given as to 

why some groups of new Kiwi 

settlers are turning to gathering 

this free food source. Perhaps 

they are poor? Having better 

living wages to buy seafood 

commercially could sustain 

them and our beloved estuary. 

Christopher Gresson – In 

my opinion there should be a 

complete ban on gathering shellfish/cockles 

in the estuary. The 




ecological health/birdlife of the 

estuary is far more important 

than people’s right to gather 

shellfish from this estuary. On 

another, but related matter, I 

have observed people gathering 

shellfish from the rocks around 

the lifeboat breakwater 

at Scarborough, and 

from the rocks which 

once formed the walls 

of the old Bell’s Baths 

– they take everything 

which is alive – topshells, 

cat’s eyes, limpets 

and chitons. These 

rocks are now almost completely 

devoid of life. 

Ron Williams – Total ban 

for 10 years, until numbers are 

able to withstand the “human 

thievery.” 

We said: 

Quake-strengthening 

time frame could be 

shortened for Mitre Hotel 

You said: 

Dick Wilkins – As well 

as being an increasingly 

derelict eyesore and creating 

visibility issues for traffic, 

many pedestrians now have to 

negotiate the fenced area around 

the hotel if they are to use the 

new crossing to the new bus 

stop. Being caught in that fenced 

area in an earthquake could be 

fatal.

Sumner runners make 

mark on Chch Marathon 

SUMNER RUNNING Club 

members earned a number 

of Canterbury marathon 

championship titles at the 

Christchurch Marathon on 

Sunday. 

Cool and wet weather made 

for challenging race conditions, 

with some wondering if they 

had entered a cross-country 

rather than a road race. 

In the women’s marathon, 

Lisa Brignull and Jennie 

Nicholson both came away with 

personal best times. 

Brignull ran a very strong and 

smart race to overtake Letha 

Whitham at the 35km mark to 

claim third. In doing so she also 

secured a personal best time of 

3hr 4min and the Canterbury 

marathon championship masters 

women’s title. Nicholson 

finished ninth in a personal best 

time of 3hr 16min. 

In the men’s marathon, 

both Paul Timothy and Shaun 

McWhirter performed strongly. 

Timothy, who was recovering 

from a recent injury, demonstrated 

his maturity and 

experience as a long-distance 

runner to finish 14th overall in 

a time of 2hr 47min and took 

out the Canterbury marathon 

championship open men’s and 

masters title. 

McWhirter, who was striking 

distance from Timothy from 

start to finish, came home in 

18th place overall with a personal 

best time of 2hr 50min. 

In the half marathon, recently 

crowned New Zealand 

Marathon champion and 

Rotorua Marathon winner Blair 

McWhirter blazed through the 

21.1km in 1hr 8min to finish

eighth overall. He then had 

enough energy to jump on his 

bike to cheer his brother Shaun 

on in the later stages of the 

marathon. 

Simon Wooding, Laurence 

Cooke and Rosie Hay also put 

in strong performances in the 

half marathon. 

Wooding was 29th in the 

open men’s in a time of 1hr 

20min. Cooke beat the magic 

90min time coming home in 

1hr 29min, while Hay made a 

very positive comeback running 

a solid 1hr 36min. 

Local fireman Danny Carmine 

ran the 10km event in a 

blistering 36min 47sec and was 

18th. 

Bayleys, Crusaders 

tackle school bullying 

A NEW children’s book has been 

launched to tackle bullying head 

on – and it tells the story of some 

familiar Canterbury icons. 

Bayleys Canterbury and the 

BNZ Crusaders have teamed up 

to launch Ace: A Horsey Tail of 

Courage. 

Aimed at school children aged 

five to eight, it tells the story of 

Ace, a young horse who is being 

bullied by his peers. He dreams 

of becoming one of the six 

Crusaders Bayleys Horses which 

ride out at the start of every home 

game. 

The story ends well for Ace 

who achieves his dream, just as 

his real-life character did. 

Ace, a four-year-old 

thoroughbred mare was in 

training when the book was 

being written. He made his 

debut on the field on May 12 at 

AMI Stadium when the BNZ 

Crusaders beat the Waratahs 

31-29. 

Holly, another character in the 

book who stands up for Ace, is 

the horse that sets the pace for 

the others and keeps them on 

track, even though she’s third in 

line. 

Ace: A Horsey Tail of Courage 

aims to encourage children to 

speak-up and report incidents 

of bullying whether they are 

the victims or witnesses. It has 

already been received well. 

Last year the OECD 

programme for international 

student assessment produced a 

report on students’ well-being. 

Fifteen-year-old students in 51 

countries were surveyed about 

perceived bullying. New Zealand 

students reported the secondhighest 

rate of bullying in the 

OECD. 

Bayleys Canterbury general 

manager Pete Whalan said he 

was proud to be working 

with the Crusaders to deliver 

an important message to Kiwi 

kids. 

“The Crusaders sporting 

prowess, combined with the 

team’s reputation in the wider 

community and the easilyapproachable 

persona of the 

Crusaders horses, will enable 

the anti-bullying message to be 

spread among the key audiences 

throughout the country.” 

The book has been written by 

Friday Creative’s Katy Clook, and 

illustrated by Kophie Hulsbosch. 

There is also advice in it for 

parents. 

The books can be pre-ordered 

on the BNZ Crusaders website, 

and will be sold for $20 at the 

Crusaders home games against 

the Highlanders on July 6 and the 

Blues on July 14. 

Proceeds go to Bayleys’ 

principal charity, Make-A-Wish 

New Zealand.

Jacqui Gibbs 

Chamberlain 

– Leap of Faith 

In these works I challenge my doubts and beliefs 

that anything is possible, that dreams really do come 

true. There is also a plunge into the unknown subtly 

represented in these paintings, a leap of faith into what 

cannot be seen, what lies beneath, what hides around the 

corner. 

All we need to do is to take that risk, the first step, and 

surrender to the unknown. Then the real adventure 

begins. 

My studio overlooks the sea and influences the way 

I think and create. Its forever changing moods, one 

moment calm and serene, the next rough and unforgiving, 

always with the freedom to do as it pleases, being 

accountable to no one. The constant ebb and flow of the 

tides with its contrasting colours and textures incites 

both peacefulness and restlessness in my moods and 

creativity. It is the joy and the fun that the ocean delivers 

to us that I have tried to capture in these works. 

A Leap of Faith is about taking that risk, not waiting or 

you may be waiting all your life. In the end we may only 

regret the chances we didn’t take, the relationships we 

were afraid to have and the decisions we waited too long 

to make. Go on, take the leap! 

About Jacqui: an artist of figurative subjects with life 

and energy, Jacqui lives and paints on an isolated farm 

in Port Levy, Banks Peninsula with her husband Chris 

and daughter Phoebe. While Jacqui’s subject matter 

is invariably the human form, it is secondary to her 

exploration of form, structure, movement, colour and 

texture. 

Come and meet Jacqui at the opening of her latest works: 

Little River Gallery, 9th June at 11am. Leap of Faith runs 

until 4th July.

cul-de-sac in Brookhaven subdivision. 

Single level and low-maintenance, this 

property will appeal to a myriad of buyers 

from first home buyers to retirees or those 

looking to add to their investment portfolio. 

The tidy and comfortable home is warm 

and sunny thanks to its northwest-facing 

orientation with the added benefit of 

double glazing and smart heating solutions 

including solar heating. 

Enjoy views of the nearby Port Hills from 

the open-plan kitchen and dining room and

have been carefully maintained by the 

current owners along with established vege 

plots and a small glasshouse.

close to Ferrymead shopping precinct 

with great dining options and the popular 

Tannery complex. Parks and reserves are 

an easy stroll close by and a short drive will 

take you to Christchurch’s seaside suburbs 

and CBD. 

Our owners have cherished their time in 

their much-loved home but with retirement 

home plans fixed in place, they need to see 

this sold. This may well be the affordable 

opportunity you’ve been waiting for -
