LANDMARK: Governors <strong>Bay</strong> artist Russ Harris with a woodblock print<br />
of the historic Governors <strong>Bay</strong> jetty. His work will be auctioned along<br />
with 19 other artworks at the Governors <strong>Bay</strong> Hotel on Saturday. The<br />
money raised will go towards restoring the 300m wooden jetty.<br />
Jetty art going on the block<br />
Construct art exhibition and<br />
auction, which organisers hope<br />
will garner much-needed funds<br />
for the Governors <strong>Bay</strong> Jetty<br />
Restoration Trust.<br />
The artworks vary greatly in<br />
style, size, colour and execution<br />
– but are all linked by the common<br />
motif of the jetty.<br />
Mr Harris is one of only two<br />
artists to portray the “ricketyrackety”<br />
structure from the<br />
endpoint looking back towards<br />
the land.<br />
“The structure is so interesting,<br />
how it’s held together. Now<br />
it’s unused the birds – terns,<br />
oyster catchers, shags have<br />
made it their own,” said Mr<br />
Harris, who uses a letterpress<br />
print process employing an<br />
“arcane” machine at the Ferrymead<br />
Heritage Park print<br />
shop.<br />
Artists have all worked individually<br />
on their pieces but will<br />
get to meet each other at Saturday’s<br />
auction, something Mr<br />
Harris was looking forward to.<br />

Maori<br />

sparks<br />
debate<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
GIFTING A former Maori<br />
burial ground to local runanga<br />
is an ill-considered act of<br />
privatisation, says the Purau<br />
Residents Association.<br />
There have been ongoing discussions<br />
about returning ownership<br />
and management of Purau Maori<br />
Reserve over the past century and<br />
in December last year the local<br />
hapu Ngati Wheke asked the city<br />
council to explore the option.<br />
A city council report supporting<br />
the transfer was tabled at a Banks<br />
Peninsula Community Board<br />
meeting last week.<br />
The report gave two options, one<br />
of which would reclassify the land<br />
from recreation reserve to historic<br />
reserve.<br />
The second and preferred option<br />
was initiating a process to revoke<br />
the reserve status, enabling the city<br />
council to then consider “returning<br />
the land to Te Hapu o Ngati<br />
Wheke.”<br />

The Purau Residents Association doesn’t<br />
want the city council to go ahead with the<br />
plan (see page 1).<br />
They have been in discussions with Rapaki Maori on behalf of<br />
the local hapu Ngati Wheke since December.<br />
The residents’ association says gifting the site to Rapaki would<br />
be an act of privatisation.<br />

Urumau bike tracks to stay or go?<br />
Reserve plan<br />
rejected again<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
AN UPDATED development<br />
plan for Lyttelton’s Urumau<br />
Reserve has been rejected for<br />
the second time.<br />
The sticking point is whether<br />
some mountain bike tracks in<br />
the reserve should be removed<br />
or retained.<br />
The Banks Peninsula Community<br />
Board first considered<br />
the plan on April 16 but sought<br />
clarification<br />
on the legality<br />
and compliance<br />
of tracks<br />
within the reserve<br />
and their<br />
environmental<br />
impact, along<br />
Jed<br />
O’Donoghue<br />
with traffic<br />
and parking<br />
issues.<br />
A new report<br />
presented to the board last<br />
week said advice from the city<br />
council’s legal team was that<br />
tracks can develop over time<br />
simply by people repeatedly using<br />
a particular area.<br />
But it appeared city council<br />
staff had “worked with (reserve<br />
management) committee members<br />
on track alignment and the<br />
like” in the years since the 2008<br />
plan was approved, said the<br />
report.<br />
It concluded the Urumau<br />
mountain bike tracks complied<br />
with design guidelines and<br />
standards, there was no increased<br />
sedimentation run-off<br />
caused by the tracks, and they<br />
avoided native planting sites as<br />
much as possible.<br />
But the board again backed<br />
away from adopting the plan<br />
and has asked the committee<br />
to meet with an independent<br />
facilitator to decide whether to<br />
close any tracks before the plan<br />
is adopted.<br />
The report noted that city<br />
council ranger staff were “aware<br />
of the, at times, fractious nature<br />
of the committee.”<br />
It said discussions and<br />
decisions about the mountain<br />
bike track network made at<br />
committee meetings were<br />
often “poorly formalised and<br />
subsequently poorly recorded in<br />
the minutes.”<br />
Tracks can only be removed<br />
UNDECIDED:<br />
The future of<br />
current and<br />
proposed<br />
mountain<br />
bike tracks<br />
in Urumau<br />
Reserve is still<br />
up in the air. <br />
by the board as part of the<br />
development plan process and<br />
before final adoption.<br />
Board member Jed<br />
O’Donoghue said it was<br />
important to get the plan right<br />
because, once adopted, it would<br />
have to go before the full city<br />
council if any tracks needed to<br />
be removed.<br />
“We want to be very clear<br />
about what is and isn’t going to<br />
stay there and want everybody<br />
to be comfortable with that.”<br />
Mr O’Donoghue said no date<br />
had been set for the meeting.<br />

In Brief<br />
BYLAW CHANGE SUPPORT<br />
Almost three-quarters of Akaroa<br />
residents think freedom camping<br />
is causing significant problems and<br />
80 per cent say the current ban<br />
on non-self-contained freedom<br />
camping is failing, an online<br />
survey shows. The survey of 280<br />
residents will form the basis of a<br />
report on possible alterations to<br />
the bylaw which will be considered<br />
by the city council and consulted<br />
on later this year.<br />
$80K FOR CHOLMONDELEY<br />
More than $80,000 was given to<br />
support the work of Cholmondeley<br />
Children’s Centre at its first annual<br />
fundraising event. The Little Gems<br />
Project’s ‘Denim, Diamonds and<br />
Dancing’ evening held at Sixty6 on<br />
Peterborough St raised the money<br />
through ticket sales, sponsorship<br />
and auction items. Chief executive<br />
Arron Perriam said the funds<br />
would be used to provide respite<br />
care and education for children.”<br />
MORE LOOS PLEASE<br />
Modular toilets – not port-a-loos<br />
– could be used to help manage<br />
cruise ship arrivals in Akaroa<br />
next season. The Banks Peninsula<br />
Community Board has asked<br />
city council staff to investigate a<br />
range of options for dealing with<br />
the added pressure thousands<br />
of visitors put on the Akaroa’s<br />
infrastructure.<br />

Awards for community work, conservation<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
Two Lyttelton women –<br />
Margaret Jefferies and<br />
Alison Ross – have been<br />
recognised for their<br />
contributions to community<br />
and the environment in the<br />
Queen’s Birthday honours<br />
list<br />
For services to the community,<br />
the chairwoman of Project<br />
Lyttelton, Ms Jefferies has<br />
become a member of the New<br />
Zealand Order of Merit.<br />
Ms Jefferies is a mother of<br />
five adult children (including<br />
two sets of twins) and a former<br />
secondary school teacher.<br />
Her involvement as a<br />
volunteer in the innovative grass<br />
roots organisation spans 13<br />
years.<br />
She said it was wonderful to be<br />
acknowledged both as a woman<br />
and a volunteer, as women made<br />
up a huge part of the voluntary<br />
sector and their work often<br />
remained invisible.<br />
Project Lyttelton’s wealth of<br />
initiatives have included various<br />
festivals including the popular<br />
Lyttelton Festival of Lights, waste<br />
reduction, a community-grown<br />
dinner, school and community<br />
gardens, dual purpose welcome<br />
and reusable shopping bags for<br />
new residents, a voucher programme<br />
for local businesses, and<br />
worm farm bins for processing<br />
kitchen waste.<br />
In 2005 Ms Jefferies introduced<br />
the Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
TimeBank, in which people in<br />
the community can trade their<br />
skills and time on an equal basis<br />
– one hour’s gardening equals<br />
one hour’s house painting.<br />
The TimeBank now has<br />
around 780 members and as of<br />
2015 around 2000 hours of people’s<br />
time was being exchanged<br />
on average per month. The Lyt-<br />
Margaret Jefferies<br />
telton TimeBank has inspired the<br />
establishment of 30 other time<br />
banks around New Zealand.<br />
She is a member of the<br />
Leadership in Communities programme<br />
and a board member of<br />
Living Economies Educational<br />
Trust.<br />
Previously she has chaired<br />
the Lyttelton community radio<br />
station and helped set up the<br />
Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong> Business Association.<br />
Ms Jefferies set up three national<br />
conferences called Spirit at<br />
Work, which looked at spirituality<br />
in the workplace.<br />
She said she was particularly<br />
proud of the way Project Lyttelton<br />
operated.<br />
“As a group we tend to look<br />
at things from an “appreciative<br />
inquiry” point of view which is<br />
focusing on things that are going<br />
well because then the energy<br />
flows and people get excited and<br />
the things that aren’t going so<br />
well sort of slip in behind and<br />
get in there too. It’s being valuesbased<br />
and doing things in an<br />
inclusive manner.”<br />
Alison Ross<br />
Ms Ross has been given<br />
the Queen’s Service Medal for<br />
services to conservation.<br />
The self-described “quiet conservationist”<br />
formed the Lyttelton<br />
Environment Group in 1987<br />
and has continued as secretary to<br />
the present day.<br />
Ms Ross was the foundation<br />
secretary/manager of Otamahua/<br />
Quail Island Ecological Restoration<br />
Trust from 1997 until her<br />
retirement in 2008.<br />
During her tenure she raised<br />
$500,000 and around 70,000 native<br />
trees were planted.<br />
She has been involved with<br />
Heritage New Zealand, co-edited<br />
a second edition of Otamahua-<br />
Quail Island – a Link with the<br />
Past, and secured a grant for a<br />
restoration plan for the Scott/<br />
Shackleton stables on Quail<br />
Island.<br />
Between 2003 and 2010 she<br />
organised thrice annual conservation<br />
volunteer exchanges with<br />
students from the United States<br />
and New Zealand.<br />
From 2008 to 2010 she secured<br />
funding to enable Lyttelton<br />
Environment Group to sponsor<br />
classes from low decile Christchurch<br />
schools to participate in<br />
planting days.<br />
She has been involved with<br />
local education at the Lyttelton<br />
Kindergarten and Lyttelton<br />
Main School, including as the<br />
foundation secretary on the<br />
board of trustees and leading the<br />
move to have free swimming for<br />
the three local schools.<br />
Ms Ross was appointed to the<br />
Banks Peninsula Wastewater<br />
Working Party from 2003 to<br />
2007 and has led submissions<br />
on resource consent applications<br />
and for several Environment<br />
Court hearings.<br />

Debate over Maori reserve gift idea<br />
•From page 1<br />
But association spokesman<br />
Thomas Kulpe questioned<br />
whether gifting the land was the<br />
right step.<br />
While it was understandable<br />
the runanga would seek ownership,<br />
he said, it was only because<br />
the city council had “done nothing”<br />
to recognise and protect the<br />
area from inappropriate use such<br />
as eating, drinking and playing<br />
games.<br />
He wanted the reserve fenced<br />
off immediately – something<br />
that “should have been done<br />
years ago.”<br />
“I want to see it reclassified as<br />
an historic reserve and I want<br />
to see proper recognition of our<br />
common history by the city<br />
council,” said Mr Kulpe.<br />
The whole of the Purau area<br />
had history which was not just<br />
“private to Maori” but a common,<br />
shared history, he argued.<br />
“To rob ‘Peter’ (of a public reserve)<br />
and hand it to Maori just<br />
because Ngai Tahu has a lot of<br />
political influence is not right,”<br />
said Mr Kulpe.<br />
He raised doubts about the veracity<br />
of information supporting<br />
the land transfer from the city<br />
council to Rapaki Runanga – the<br />
modern day representative of<br />
Ngati Wheke.<br />

Rapaki representative Yvette<br />
Couch-Lewis did not reply to a<br />
request for comment.<br />
The supporting information<br />
in the city council report was<br />
“biased, incorrect and has omissions,”<br />
Mr Kulpe said, questioning<br />
the archeological evidence<br />
cited. It was written by Te Hapu<br />
o Ngati Wheke and is a summary<br />
of historical information<br />
that was included in a cultural<br />
values report commissioned by<br />
the city council last year at the<br />
recommendation of Mahaanui<br />
Kurataiao Ltd, an advisory<br />
company set up to represent<br />
the interests of six Ngai Tahu<br />
Runanga.<br />
The report was left on the table<br />
while the board seeks clarification<br />
of the issues raised by Mr<br />
Kulpe.<br />

AFTER SEVEN years operating<br />
away from its neighbourhood,<br />
Redcliffs School is now ready to<br />
return to Redcliffs, with a special<br />
ceremony tomorrow morning.<br />
A farewell to the old school<br />
buildings will be done by way of a<br />
poroporoaki (Maori farewell and<br />
blessing) at 11am.<br />
The school, and community<br />
members, will then cross the road<br />
to Redcliffs Park for a whakawatea<br />
(blessing) and sod-turning on the<br />
new site.<br />
Members of both Rapaki and<br />
Tuahiwi Runanga will be present<br />
to bless the land.<br />
All the school children and staff<br />
will attend, along with the Ministry<br />
of Education, city council<br />
members and dignitaries.<br />
Demolition of the old school is<br />
imminent.<br />
Preparations completed in<br />
anticipation of this include removing<br />
all items of any value or<br />
significance to be either reused in<br />
the new school, sent to schools in<br />
Vanuatu, or sold.<br />
Ground works expected to<br />
commence at Redcliffs Park<br />
shortly include detailed archaeological<br />
work.<br />
It is anticipated to take several<br />
months, during which time the<br />
playground and sports fields will<br />
remain open.<br />

I saw them. It turned out they<br />

got me through otherwise<br />
I’d have been back after 45min,”<br />
she said.<br />

Shellfish limit long-standing<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
THE SHELLFISH catch limit<br />
in the Avon-Heathcote Estuary<br />
hasn’t changed since 1986.<br />
Last week the <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
News last week reported on<br />
researcher Stephanie Hampson’s<br />
finding that cockle numbers had<br />
fallen dramatically between 2012<br />
and 2017.<br />
A Ministry of Primary Industries<br />
spokesperson confirmed the<br />
current limit has been in place<br />
since the Fisheries (Amateur<br />
Fishing) Regulations were set in<br />
1986.<br />
Ms Hampson said the combination<br />
of poor nutrients in<br />
the water and pressure from<br />
collecting was responsible for the<br />
serious decline in numbers, from<br />
around 400 per sq m five years<br />
ago to between 50 and 80 per sq<br />
m in some areas.<br />
She said the results indicated<br />
the catch limit of 150 cockles per<br />
person per day was too high and<br />
needed to be reduced or even a<br />
ban put in place.<br />
An MPI spokesperson said<br />
they would be interested in learning<br />
more about the results of Ms<br />
Hampson’s research once it had<br />
been reviewed.<br />
It was not currently aware of<br />
any concerns being raised about<br />
the estuary.<br />
“In key areas where we are<br />
CONCERNED: Stephanie<br />
Hampson’s research into<br />
the health of shellfish in the<br />
estuary may prompt a review<br />
of daily catch limits.<br />

aware of concerns regarding the<br />
sustainability of cockle harvesting<br />
we commission surveys to<br />
estimate the health of cockle<br />
beds. If there is cause for concern<br />
a range of management tools are<br />
available.”<br />
Shellfish take limits varied<br />
throughout the country and<br />
reflected the “best available information<br />
on what is sustainable,”<br />
said the spokesperson.<br />
In some areas the limit is a<br />
result of local area management,<br />
such as within mataitai fishery<br />
reserves or taiapure – local<br />
fisheries such as Rapaki and<br />
Koukourorata mataitai on Banks<br />

The Lyttelton<br />
Port Company’s<br />
resource consent<br />
for dredging has<br />
been reduced from<br />
35 to 25 years.<br />
Negotiating concessions<br />
earns Ngai Tahu praise<br />
NGAI TAHU has been<br />
praised for challenging the<br />
Lyttelton Port Company’s<br />
dredging consent, resulting<br />
in concessions from LPC.<br />
The company was<br />
granted resource<br />
consent last July to<br />
deepen the shipping<br />
channel, but Ngai<br />
Tahu lodged an<br />
appeal on environmental<br />
and cultural<br />
grounds.<br />
A major concession<br />
from the<br />
mediation with Ngai<br />
Tahu was the reduction<br />
from a 35-year resource<br />
consent to 25 years.<br />
Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />
Community Board<br />
member Darrell Latham,<br />
who was critical of the city<br />
Darrell<br />
Latham<br />
council for not being more<br />
active in the lead up to the<br />
consent being granted last<br />
year, said Ngai Tahu had<br />
“led the way” in ensuring<br />
the marine<br />
environment was<br />
protected.<br />
“Ngai Tahu<br />
deserves<br />
congratulations<br />
for this, as does<br />
LPC in conceding<br />
to improved<br />
conditions to<br />
protect the marine<br />
environment.<br />
Both have shown that they<br />
care for the environment<br />
and for the port and<br />
Canterbury’s continued<br />
economic development,”<br />
said Dr Latham.<br />
Stricter environmental<br />
controls announced last<br />
week include requiring<br />
the company to provide<br />
a programme of its proposed<br />
dredging a month<br />
in advance to Ngai Tahu,<br />
and to liaise with groups<br />
including mussel farm<br />
owners Ngai Tahu and<br />
Sanford, and Environment<br />
Canterbury.<br />
Lyttelton Port must also<br />
provide them with records<br />
of the timing, quantities<br />
and location of dumped<br />
sediment.<br />
Dumping dredge spoil<br />

More pest traps for Sumner<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
RODENTS beware.<br />
Predator Free Sumner has<br />
topped up its supply of traps.<br />
Co-ordinator Gabe Ross said<br />
an increase in the organisation’s<br />
Kiwibank grant means it could<br />
offer another 140 subsidised<br />
traps, taking the total to 365.<br />
May was a record month for<br />
the group, with 101 recorded pest<br />
kills.<br />
“We are at peak<br />
‘rattyness’,” said<br />
Mr Ross.<br />
“Our cumulative<br />
total (since October)<br />
is 345 animals,<br />
of which 165 are<br />
Gabe Ross<br />
rats, two weasels,<br />
46 hedgehogs, 52<br />
possums and 72 mice, with the<br />
balance being rodents that were<br />
scavenged before they could be<br />
identified.”<br />
He is hoping the removal of<br />
the rats in particular will boost<br />
native bird numbers over the<br />
next nesting season and is keen<br />
to get as many people as possible<br />
participating in the national<br />
Landcare Garden Bird Survey<br />
between <strong>June</strong> 30 and July 8.<br />
“This will be a useful way to<br />
get some measurement of how<br />
bird numbers and species change<br />
as the trapping continues.<br />
“We will be arranging a trap<br />
RATS: A rat trap is loaded with bait before being placed inside a<br />
wooden box.<br />
pick-up day every couple of<br />
weeks until our supply is gone,<br />
so keep an eye on our Facebook<br />
page and community notice<br />
boards for updates,” said Mr<br />
Ross.<br />
A Victor rat trap in a timber<br />
box costs $8, a Trapinator possum<br />
trap is $20 and a Doc200 rat<br />
and mustelid trap is $35.<br />
People are asked to set traps<br />
in their gardens only – not on<br />
lifestyle blocks or reserves.<br />
They need to be kept baited,<br />
ideally checked once a week, and<br />
any catches reported to Predator<br />
Free Sumner with the date, animal,<br />
trap-type and bait.<br />
In another welcome development,<br />
Cranford St PlaceMakers<br />
has donated materials for building<br />
an extra 150 rat trap boxes.<br />
A working bee will be<br />
arranged in the next few weeks<br />
where residents can assemble a<br />
box, receive a Kiwibank supplied<br />
rat trap, and take the set away for<br />
free.<br />

AKAROA Museum’s suite<br />
of three new long-term<br />
exhibitions, developed and<br />
installed after the repair and<br />
strengthening of its buildings,<br />
have received national<br />
recognition.<br />
Nominated in the category of<br />
‘exhibition excellence – social<br />
history’ in the Service IQ New<br />
Zealand Museum Awards, the<br />
museum made it to the finals in<br />
this category.<br />
The judges said the redeveloped<br />
exhibitions looked “like<br />
a ‘jewel’ of an experience” and<br />
were a great exemplar for small<br />
museums.<br />
“Perhaps the success of this<br />
redevelopment is in its use of<br />
old approaches – object-led,<br />
good design, interesting stories<br />
well executed.”<br />
Ngā Taenga mai Arrivals,<br />
Land and Sea and Tales of<br />
Banks Peninsula are the three<br />
exhibitions.<br />
Museum director Lynda<br />
Wallace praised collections<br />
manager Daniel Smith, who<br />
curated them.<br />
“He set out to showcase our<br />
great collections and let the<br />
objects shine so we are thrilled<br />
that the judges picked up on<br />
that,” said Ms Wallace.<br />

“It is always hard for smaller<br />

is planning to embark on the<br />
rejuvenation and restoration of<br />
the Baden Norris walkway that<br />
runs between Oxford St next to<br />
the medical centre and Sumner<br />
Rd.<br />
It was affected badly after<br />
the earthquakes and the native<br />
overgrowth has meant it is<br />
unable to be used.<br />
Working with the city council,<br />
we are hoping to then do some<br />
planting so this track can then<br />
be enjoyed by everyone.<br />
We will then aim to maintain<br />
this asset as an acknowledgment<br />
to the track’s namesake, Baden<br />
Norris, who has been involved in<br />
Lyttelton for many years.<br />
We are also holding a<br />
fundraiser movie night at the<br />
end of July and will be showing<br />
Mamma Mia! Here We Go<br />

tickets, please get in touch.<br />
Our changeover is coming up<br />
where we will farewell our joint<br />
presidents, Donna Hennan and<br />
Robyn Struthers, and welcome<br />

What is in a name?<br />
Heathcote<br />
Ward city<br />
councillor<br />
Sara<br />
Templeton<br />
explains<br />
the process<br />
behind road<br />
naming in<br />
the city<br />
THERE’S BEEN some<br />
discussion within these pages<br />
recently about the naming of a<br />
new street in Heathcote Valley –<br />
Kairuri Lane.<br />
It’s clear from comments<br />
that the city council’s processes<br />
around road naming are opaque,<br />
so I thought I’d have a go at<br />
explaining them, using this one<br />
as an example.<br />
Under the city council’s<br />
roads and right-of-way naming<br />
policy, the names considered<br />
for new roads must be requested<br />
by the developer, who puts<br />
forward three for consideration.<br />
The community board is then<br />
able to either approve a name or<br />
not.<br />
In this instance the developer<br />
had requested that Reynard Lane<br />
be approved by the Linwood-<br />
Central-Heathcote Community<br />
Board, but the board had concerns<br />
that it wasn’t in keeping<br />
with other historic street names<br />
in the area, so asked the developer<br />
to present some other options.<br />
He did and came back at the<br />
following meeting with Reynard<br />
Lane as his preferred option,<br />
then Abney Lane (named for<br />
an old surveying tool) and also<br />
Kairuri Lane (the Maori word for<br />
surveyor).<br />
He had consulted with Mahaanui<br />
Kurataiao Ltd, a resource<br />
and environmental advisory<br />
group, which agreed that the<br />
name ‘Kairuri’ was culturally<br />
appropriate.<br />
The word kai in this case is<br />
used as a prefix to verbs and<br />
stipulates the person of the action.<br />
For example mahi (work)<br />
is kaimahi/worker and kōrero<br />
(speak) is kaikōrero/speaker.<br />
CONCERNS:<br />
The choice<br />
of name –<br />
Kairuri Lane<br />
– for a new<br />
subdivision<br />
on Bridle<br />
Path Rd has<br />
attracted<br />
controversy.<br />
Rūri is a translated English word<br />
for ruler, so Kairūri means surveyor.<br />
The community board has<br />
previously had concerns about<br />
the road naming policy and last<br />
year asked the city council to<br />
review the policy to enable better<br />
outcomes.<br />
We were concerned that<br />
there is currently little resident<br />
involvement and also that it was<br />
difficult to encourage developers<br />
to present Te Reo names as options.<br />
The city has very few<br />
Maori street names, even with<br />
the long historic connection to<br />
the area and so this was one of<br />
the issues that we took into consideration<br />
when we approved the<br />
developers’ third option.<br />
I am hopeful that the review of<br />
the policy will mean both greater<br />
community involvement in road<br />
naming processes, especially<br />
in existing communities, and a<br />
greater recognition of tangata<br />
whenua. Ngā mihi<br />
We said:<br />
Estuary shellfish are<br />
under threat<br />
You said:<br />
Bernie McLean –<br />
Having observed the<br />
unmitigated looting of<br />
shellfish over the previous<br />
several decades I<br />
think that a total ban is<br />
perhaps now necessary<br />
and easier to police.<br />
Diane McCarthy – Cockles<br />
are eaten by estuary birdlife.<br />
Humans need to respect this.<br />
Biodiversity means keeping<br />
all lifeforms viable. I support a<br />
total ban on collecting cockles,<br />
enforced by volunteers until<br />
viable numbers of shellfish are<br />
re-established in the Avon-<br />
Heathcote estuary. Monitoring<br />
this by further research is<br />
critical. Then a quota per adult<br />
gatherer can be reset that<br />
maintains a balance. However,<br />
thought needs to be given as to<br />
why some groups of new Kiwi<br />
settlers are turning to gathering<br />
this free food source. Perhaps<br />
they are poor? Having better<br />
living wages to buy seafood<br />
commercially could sustain<br />
them and our beloved estuary.<br />
Christopher Gresson – In<br />
my opinion there should be a<br />
complete ban on gathering shellfish/cockles<br />
in the estuary. The<br />

ecological health/birdlife of the<br />
estuary is far more important<br />
than people’s right to gather<br />
shellfish from this estuary. On<br />
another, but related matter, I<br />
have observed people gathering<br />
shellfish from the rocks around<br />
the lifeboat breakwater<br />
at Scarborough, and<br />
from the rocks which<br />
once formed the walls<br />
of the old Bell’s Baths<br />
– they take everything<br />
which is alive – topshells,<br />
cat’s eyes, limpets<br />
and chitons. These<br />
rocks are now almost completely<br />
devoid of life.<br />
Ron Williams – Total ban<br />
for 10 years, until numbers are<br />
able to withstand the “human<br />
thievery.”<br />
We said:<br />
Quake-strengthening<br />
time frame could be<br />
shortened for Mitre Hotel<br />
You said:<br />
Dick Wilkins – As well<br />
as being an increasingly<br />
derelict eyesore and creating<br />
visibility issues for traffic,<br />
many pedestrians now have to<br />
negotiate the fenced area around<br />
the hotel if they are to use the<br />
new crossing to the new bus<br />
stop. Being caught in that fenced<br />
area in an earthquake could be<br />
fatal.<br />

Sumner runners make<br />
mark on Chch Marathon<br />
SUMNER RUNNING Club<br />
members earned a number<br />
of Canterbury marathon<br />
championship titles at the<br />
Christchurch Marathon on<br />
Sunday.<br />
Cool and wet weather made<br />
for challenging race conditions,<br />
with some wondering if they<br />
had entered a cross-country<br />
rather than a road race.<br />
In the women’s marathon,<br />
Lisa Brignull and Jennie<br />
Nicholson both came away with<br />
personal best times.<br />
Brignull ran a very strong and<br />
smart race to overtake Letha<br />
Whitham at the 35km mark to<br />
claim third. In doing so she also<br />
secured a personal best time of<br />
3hr 4min and the Canterbury<br />
marathon championship masters<br />
women’s title. Nicholson<br />
finished ninth in a personal best<br />
time of 3hr 16min.<br />
In the men’s marathon,<br />
both Paul Timothy and Shaun<br />
McWhirter performed strongly.<br />
Timothy, who was recovering<br />
from a recent injury, demonstrated<br />
his maturity and<br />
experience as a long-distance<br />
runner to finish 14th overall in<br />
a time of 2hr 47min and took<br />
out the Canterbury marathon<br />
championship open men’s and<br />
masters title.<br />
McWhirter, who was striking<br />
distance from Timothy from<br />
start to finish, came home in<br />
18th place overall with a personal<br />
best time of 2hr 50min.<br />
In the half marathon, recently<br />
crowned New Zealand<br />
Marathon champion and<br />
Rotorua Marathon winner Blair<br />
McWhirter blazed through the<br />
21.1km in 1hr 8min to finish<br />
SPORTS<br />
PODIUM: Lisa Brignull nears<br />
the finish line to be the<br />
third women home in the<br />
Christchurch Marathon on<br />
Sunday. <br />
eighth overall. He then had<br />
enough energy to jump on his<br />
bike to cheer his brother Shaun<br />
on in the later stages of the<br />
marathon.<br />
Simon Wooding, Laurence<br />
Cooke and Rosie Hay also put<br />
in strong performances in the<br />
half marathon.<br />
Wooding was 29th in the<br />
open men’s in a time of 1hr<br />
20min. Cooke beat the magic<br />
90min time coming home in<br />
1hr 29min, while Hay made a<br />
very positive comeback running<br />
a solid 1hr 36min.<br />
Local fireman Danny Carmine<br />
ran the 10km event in a<br />
blistering 36min 47sec and was<br />
18th.<br />
<strong>Bay</strong>leys, Crusaders<br />
tackle school bullying<br />
A NEW children’s book has been<br />
launched to tackle bullying head<br />
on – and it tells the story of some<br />
familiar Canterbury icons.<br />
<strong>Bay</strong>leys Canterbury and the<br />
BNZ Crusaders have teamed up<br />
to launch Ace: A Horsey Tail of<br />
Courage.<br />
Aimed at school children aged<br />
five to eight, it tells the story of<br />
Ace, a young horse who is being<br />
bullied by his peers. He dreams<br />
of becoming one of the six<br />
Crusaders <strong>Bay</strong>leys Horses which<br />
ride out at the start of every home<br />
game.<br />
The story ends well for Ace<br />
who achieves his dream, just as<br />
his real-life character did.<br />
Ace, a four-year-old<br />
thoroughbred mare was in<br />
training when the book was<br />
being written. He made his<br />
debut on the field on May 12 at<br />
AMI Stadium when the BNZ<br />
Crusaders beat the Waratahs<br />
31-29.<br />
Holly, another character in the<br />
book who stands up for Ace, is<br />
the horse that sets the pace for<br />
the others and keeps them on<br />
track, even though she’s third in<br />
line.<br />
Ace: A Horsey Tail of Courage<br />
aims to encourage children to<br />
speak-up and report incidents<br />
of bullying whether they are<br />
the victims or witnesses. It has<br />
already been received well.<br />
Last year the OECD<br />
programme for international<br />
student assessment produced a<br />
report on students’ well-being.<br />
Fifteen-year-old students in 51<br />
countries were surveyed about<br />
perceived bullying. New Zealand<br />
students reported the secondhighest<br />
rate of bullying in the<br />
OECD.<br />
<strong>Bay</strong>leys Canterbury general<br />
manager Pete Whalan said he<br />
was proud to be working<br />
with the Crusaders to deliver<br />
an important message to Kiwi<br />
kids.<br />
“The Crusaders sporting<br />
prowess, combined with the<br />
team’s reputation in the wider<br />
community and the easilyapproachable<br />
persona of the<br />
Crusaders horses, will enable<br />
the anti-bullying message to be<br />
spread among the key audiences<br />
throughout the country.”<br />
The book has been written by<br />
Friday Creative’s Katy Clook, and<br />
illustrated by Kophie Hulsbosch.<br />
There is also advice in it for<br />
parents.<br />
The books can be pre-ordered<br />
on the BNZ Crusaders website,<br />
and will be sold for $20 at the<br />
Crusaders home games against<br />
the Highlanders on July 6 and the<br />
Blues on July 14.<br />

Jacqui Gibbs<br />
Chamberlain<br />
– Leap of Faith<br />
In these works I challenge my doubts and beliefs<br />
that anything is possible, that dreams really do come<br />
true. There is also a plunge into the unknown subtly<br />
represented in these paintings, a leap of faith into what<br />
cannot be seen, what lies beneath, what hides around the<br />
corner.<br />
All we need to do is to take that risk, the first step, and<br />
surrender to the unknown. Then the real adventure<br />
begins.<br />
My studio overlooks the sea and influences the way<br />
I think and create. Its forever changing moods, one<br />
moment calm and serene, the next rough and unforgiving,<br />
always with the freedom to do as it pleases, being<br />
accountable to no one. The constant ebb and flow of the<br />
tides with its contrasting colours and textures incites<br />
both peacefulness and restlessness in my moods and<br />
creativity. It is the joy and the fun that the ocean delivers<br />
to us that I have tried to capture in these works.<br />
A Leap of Faith is about taking that risk, not waiting or<br />
you may be waiting all your life. In the end we may only<br />
regret the chances we didn’t take, the relationships we<br />
were afraid to have and the decisions we waited too long<br />
to make. Go on, take the leap!<br />
About Jacqui: an artist of figurative subjects with life<br />
and energy, Jacqui lives and paints on an isolated farm<br />
in Port Levy, Banks Peninsula with her husband Chris<br />
and daughter Phoebe. While Jacqui’s subject matter<br />
is invariably the human form, it is secondary to her<br />
exploration of form, structure, movement, colour and<br />
texture.<br />
Come and meet Jacqui at the opening of her latest works:<br />
Little River Gallery, 9th <strong>June</strong> at 11am. Leap of Faith runs<br />

an easy stroll close by and a short drive will<br />
take you to Christchurch’s seaside suburbs<br />
and CBD.<br />
Our owners have cherished their time in<br />
their much-loved home but with retirement<br />
home plans fixed in place, they need to see<br />
this sold. This may well be the affordable<br />
opportunity you’ve been waiting for -<br />
contact me today to avoid disappointment.<br />
