Rising sea levels talks start
Residents
get chance
to share
their ideas
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
CONSULTATION over how to
solve rising sea level issues has
started with Southshore and
South New Brighton residents.
Regenerate Christchurch
opened an engagement
hub
on Sunday at
82 Estuary Rd
so the public
could air their
concerns.
The information
will be
Tim Sintes
Hugo
Kristinsson
part of a fourmonth
process
to gauge public
opinion on the
issue of coastal
erosion.
Southshore
Residents’
Association
chairwoman
Lynda
Burdekin
said while it
has been an
ongoing saga
where nothing has happened
the way forward is to work with
Regenerate.
“It is early days. This is the
starting point,” she said.
But South New Brighton
Residents’ Association chairman
Hugo Kristinsson said it has had
a lot of meetings with Regenerate
and there was always the same
outcome –“lots of delays”.
“At the end of this there will
probably be another timeline
that avoids action . . . this is what
they continue to do year after
year,” he said.
The association passed a vote
of no confidence in Regenerate
last year.
Coastal-Burwood Community
Board deputy chairman Tim
Sintes said a lot of people from
South New Brighton attended
the engagement hub on Sunday.
He said the concerns raised
included flood protection for future
emergencies and the future
of South New Brighton School.
On Thursday, Southshore
Residents Association, Sustain
New Brighton and Christchurch
Coastal Residents’ United met
with Regenerate Christchurch to
discuss a timeline for public consultation
and a future strategy.
The South New Brighton
Residents’ Association did not
take up the invitation to attend.

THE BALL is finally moving over the
impact rising sea levels will have for
Southshore and South New Brighton.
Regenerate Christchurch has set up a
hub in Estuary Rd (see page 1) to get public
opinion as part of its four-month public
consultation process. Why it’s taken Regenerate so long to get to
this point is frustrating for some.
Rising sea levels and the impact it will have on people living
near the coast is massive. There are resource consent and
insurance issues.
There is also a division between the Southshore Residents’
Association and the South New Brighton Residents’
Association. Southshore is happy consultation has started;
South New Brighton passed a vote of no confidence in
Regenerate last year. Turbulent waters ahead.

MOVING: Swimmers take the plunge at Scarborough beach following the dedication of seats installed on the Esplanade in
memory of Paul Zarifeh and Sam Zarifeh.
SEVERAL hundred people
thronged to Scarborough beach last
Sunday to remember Paul and Sam
Zarifeh, the Sumner father and son
who died last year.
Paul died of pancreatic cancer
on November 23 aged 60. Three
weeks later, Sam died after falling
from a raft on the Landsborough
River, inland from Haast.
Memorial seats dedicated to
their memory were unveiled
on the Esplanade, opposite
Hardwicke St at 11am.
Staff and students from
Christchurch Boys’ High School,
where Sam was a teacher and
boarding master, performed
a haka on the beach and a
community mid-winter swim
followed, which attracted
more than 100 swimmers on
an unusually warm winter’s
day.
Organiser Julie Zarifeh,
Paul’s widow and Sam’s
mother, said the occasion had
been a fabulous success and
thanked the community for the
“overwhelming support” shown.

Maori names given to community boards
Fire rages, homes at risk
• By Bridget Rutherford
COMMUNITY BOARDS now
have Maori names to reflect
an increased awareness of the
language and culture.
The seven community boards
have been given names, which
are to be added at the front of the
current English ones. They also
feature in the agendas.
“Ngāi Tahu relationship team
have created
the following
names that
reflects the
wants of the
rūnanga, and
the desire to
keep a Maori
worldview
Mike Mora
towards
naming
each community board,” a city
council spokeswoman said.
She said there had been an
increase in awareness of te ao
Māori (Māori worldview) by
community board members and
city council staff.
Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū/
Banks Peninsula Community
Board means the storehouse of
Rākaihāutu. Rākaihāutu was
one of the founding ancestors of
Waitaha, an older South Island
tribe, and explored the South
Island’s mountains.
Lincoln University has a
sculpture by Chris Booth made
with stones commemorating his
exploits.
The rest of the boards’ new
names begin with Wai, which
means waters.
The Coastal-Burwood
Community Board’s new
additional name is Waitai. Tai
means shore.
The Linwood-Central-
Heathcote Community Board’s
is Waikura – wai for waters and
kura for leader.
The Spreydon-Cashmere
Community Board has Waihoro.
Horo means rush or landslip.
The Fendalton-Waimairi-
Harewood Community Board
has Waimāero, which translates
to waters and springs.
The Papanui-Innes
Community Board was given
Waipapa. Wai for waters and
papa for land and space.
The Halswell-Hornby-
Riccarton Community Board
was originally given Wainui,
which meant waters and large
and vast. But the board later
requested it be changed to
Waipuna. Chairman Mike
Mora said he was concerned
there could be confusion with
HISTORY:
A sculpture
at Lincoln
University that
commemorates
Rākaihāutu’s
exploits.
Wainui in Akaroa Harbour and
respectfully asked if it could be
changed.
He said Waipuna related to
the various springs and wells
in the ward, which also had the
headwaters of three rivers, the
Avon, Heathcote and Halswell.
“I personally think it’s a name
that I hope our board will accept
gratefully.”
The spokeswoman said the
names did not cost anything to
implement.
She said they joined a raft
of other initiatives by the city
council to increase awareness
and use of the language and
culture.
The city council offered four
courses for its staff.
Reo 101 taught the language
and pronunciation while the
Treaty of Waitangi course
looked at the history of the
treaty and Maori and Pakeha
relationships.
Ngai Tahu 101 looked at the
history of the iwi, and Maori
101 taught basic tikanga and
protocols.
The spokeswoman said the
city council also promoted
participation in Matariki and
Maori Language Week.
Environment Canterbury
has also given its proposed new
wards for next year’s local body
elections Maori names to reflect
the characteristics of each area.
North Canterbury-Ōpukepuke
means area of rolling hills,
Mid-Canterbury-Ōpākihi is
area of flat plains, and South
Canterbury-Ōtuhituhi means
area of rock drawings.
North Christchurch-Ōrei
means area of wetlands, while
West Christchurch-Ōpuna
is area of springs. Central
Christchurch-Ōhoko reflects
an area of trading and South
Christchurch-Ōwhanga
translates to an area of bays,
inlets and harbours.
Talks begin on rising sea levels
•From page 1
The strategy aims to provide
short, medium and long-term
options to adapt to the effects of
climate change, including sea
level rise, and the remaining
effects from the earthquakes.
Public engagement will
continue through to October.
After that Regenerate will
consider options to cope with
rising sea levels.
Early next year it will begin to
create a strategy.
It comes as Government MPs
met to help solve problems
people face trying to get resource
consent for sites located in
areas which could be prone to
flooding.
The city council’s High
Flood Management Area plan,
which covers suburbs including
Southshore, is making it difficult
for residents to build homes on
new sections or to redevelop
current homes.
A group made up of coastal
residents and experts say a
restricted discretionary activity
rule recommended by the
Replacement District Plan
independent hearings panel
was left out when the plan was
implemented last year.
PROBLEM: Consultation over
how to solve rising sea level
issues has started.

Black Klansman - Race, Hate, and the
Undercover investigation of Lifetime
By ron Stallworth
SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE
When Ron Stallworth, the first black detective in the history of the Colorado Springs Police
Department, comes across a classified ad in the local paper asking for all those interested
in joining the Ku Klux Klan to contact a P.O. box, Detective Stallworth does his job and
responds with interest, using his real name while posing as a white man. He figures he’ll
receive a few brochures in the mail, and learn more about a growing terrorist threat in his
community.
A few weeks later the office phone rings, and the caller asks Ron a question he thought he’d
never have to answer, Would you like to join our cause? This is 1978, and the KKK is on
the rise in the United States. Its Grand Wizard, David Duke, has made a name for himself,
appearing on talk shows, and major magazine interviews preaching a kinder Klan that
wants nothing more than to preserve a heritage, and to restore a nation to its former glory.
Ron answers the caller’s question that night with a yes, launching what is surely one of the
most audacious, and incredible undercover investigations in history. During the monthslong
investigation, Stallworth sabotages cross burnings, exposes white supremacists in the
military, and even befriends David Duke himself. Black Klansman is an amazing true story,
a searing portrait of a divided America and the extraordinary heroes who dare to fight back.

Bodacious: The Shepherd cat
By Suzanna Crampton
BODACIOUS: THE SHEPHERD CAT is a heart-warming and charming tale in which Bodacious tells
us about life as The Shepherd Cat on Black Sheep Farm. ‘I am Bodacious, The Shepherd Cat , and
this is my life story. I wasn’t always called Bodacious. I must have been called something else in
my kitten-hood in the nearby city of Kilkenny, but it’s all a bit of a mystery to My Human. As far as
she’s concerned, I appeared one day and have never left. It’s a secret I plan to keep.’ Written from
the perspective of Bodacious the cat, this is a beautifully written memoir of Bodacious’s life on the
farm and everything that entails — early mornings, frosty starts, beautiful sunrises, adventurous
rare-breed Zwartbles sheep, hard work, entertaining animals, mouth-watering food, kind people and
idyllic country living with its highs and lows. The Shepherd often tells Bodacious her favourite story
of how she went out to buy red ribbon to wrap a gift for her friend, but instead came home with a gift
for herself: a daring, assertive, ambitious cat looking for a home. But soon The Shepherd realises
she needs Bodacious as much as he needs her. As soon as he arrives, Bodacious saunters around
the farm like he owns the place and immediately establishes himself as Top Cat. But Bodacious isn’t
content to pad round the house and curl up by the Aga, and soon he befriends a farm cat called Oscar
who trains him in the ways of the farm. As well as Oscar, Bodacious gets to know all the other animals
on the farm — cats Miss Marley and Ovenmitt, the scruffy border collie/fox terrier-cross called Pepper,
and The Big Fellow, to name a few. With wonderful characterisation, humour, sharp observation, and
a plucky attitude, Bodacious shows us the ropes of Black Sheep Farm. As we soak in the atmosphere
of the house, the orchards and the fields, we also learn how this Top Cat Shepherd got his name – by
being ‘Big, bold, beautiful, bolshie’, as his Shepherd always says…

A Little Bit of This, A Little Bit of That
By Jayshri Ganda
Finalist in the Gourmand World Cookbook Awards
We’ve all been there. Mum cooks a family classic and it’s delicimo. You try to
emulate it at home and fail miserably. What does she put in it? What was that
secret ingredient? Not wanting the family secrets to be lost for future generations,
Christchurch woman Jayshri Ganda and her mum Laxmi Ganda created an Indian
cookbook. And it’s like no other you have seen, anywhere.
Many Indians left their home villages in search of a better future. They found their
home in a place known as the Land of the Long White Cloud: New Zealand. With
their knowledge of spices, they brought their Indian flavours, colours and traditions.
The next generation and even their kiwi friends and families ask how to make a
great curry - and the familiar respons is “a little bit of this and a little bit of that”.
Jayshri and her mother Laxmi explore these dishes and hope to have found an
answer they they can share with all New Zealanders.

Grange School have been
presented with Duke of
Edinburgh international
awards by Deputy Mayor
Andrew Turner.
The award was presented
at the city council chambers.
It is a global framework
for non-formal education,
which challenges young
people to dream big, celebrate
their achievements
and make a difference in
the world.
They do this through
developing transferable
skills, increasing their fitness,
cultivating a sense of
adventure and volunteering
in their community.
The award helps young
people find their purpose,
passion and place in the
world.
The presentation gave
Mr Turner the opportunity
to see first-hand
the many benefits of the
award and congratulate
each individual on their
achievement.
Over the past two years,
all of the recipients have
worked with the Joshua
Foundation, which is
the Duke of Edinburgh
operating authority in
Christchurch.
Each participant was
required to develop new
skills, undertake an adventurous
journey, become
physically active and
serve within the community.
There was one bronze,
23 silver and seven gold
award recipients.
Mr Tuner said this was
an outstanding accomplishment.
He also thanked Chris
Allan from the Joshua
Foundation for giving
up this time to support
the community, in particular
the younger generation.
He said Mr Allan has a
real passion for the young
people in the city and is
helping to develop resilient
young leaders in the face of
adversity.

Vandals
hit Leslie
Park
• By Anan Zaki
VANDALS HAVE hit a sports
ground’s new surface for a second
time in two months.
The latest incident at Leslie
Park on Thursday night came just
a week after rugby league players
returned to the field following
damage from an earlier act of
vandalism six weeks ago.
The park is the Hornby Panthers
home ground.
In the latest incident, the field
was damaged by a driver in a
blue Mazda doing doughnuts,
club president Brent Tomlinson
said. A witness had reported it to
police, he said.
Mr Tomlinson said it was
“heartbreaking” to see the fields
damaged again.
Constable Deb Smalley said the
incident was reported to police
close to midnight on Thursday.
“A guy drove through the
fence and decided to carve the
park up. It’s a shame because
we’re out of action again,” Mr
Tomlinson said. The park was
given a $144,000 turf upgrade for
the Rugby League World Cup last
year.

Year 6 pupils Nia McDonald

against six other teams from

The pupils had to grate, slice,

SPORTS
St Peter’s pupil
tops at
boccia champs
• By Jacob Page
ST PETER’S School pupil Amber
Proudfoot and Caleb Wright
from Westburn School were the
big winners at the Canterbury
primary and intermediate school
boccia championships at the
Bishopdale YMCA.
Amber won the girls title while
Caleb was victorious in the boys
tournament.
Boccia is a Paralympic sport
that draws inspiration from
bocce, boules and pentaque.
The championships were open
to all pupils from the Canterbury
region with a physical disability.
Ten primary and intermediate
school pupils participated in
Boccia at the event. There were
three rounds of competition –
the boys throw, girls throw and
an overall championship round.
Halberg Foundation senior
adviser Justin Muschamp ran
the event, with assistance from
school prefects from Riccarton
High School who volunteered
on the day. The championships
are also an opportunity
for Cantabrians to join the
Canterbury team at the Halberg
Games, a national three-day
sports competition for physically
disabled young people from
October 5-7 at King’s College,
Auckland.
The championships will
be held on August 23 at the
Cashmere High School gym.

player Maddison Aubrey will
soon swap the Christchurch
winter for a tennis scholarship
in the United States.
The 18-year-old former
Christchurch Boys’ High student
has signed on for a tennis scholarship
at McKendree University
in St Louis.
The scholarship is for an
NCAA division two school, and
Aubrey said that was by choice.
“I did have an option to go to a
division one school but I felt this
was a better fit for me not only as
a tennis player but as a student,”
he said.
Aubrey, who splits his time
between the Cashmere and Elmwood
tennis clubs, will study
business and is looking forward
to playing regular tennis when
he flies out next month.
He was a top five player
nationally throughout his early
teens but admitted he had struggled
to play at the same high
standard as he gas got older.
He said he relies on a big serve
and powerful forehand and is
eager for the opportunity.
Aubrey first picked up a tennis
racket at eight-years-old and was
coached by his dad Vernon.

CWEA - More
than just a course!
The WEA opposite the Christchurch Art
Gallery on Gloucester St, has been offering
affordable adult education for over 100
years. A recent survey of participants and
tutors shows that it is about more than just
the courses it runs. Kazuko who teaches
Japanese arts and culture says “It’s my home
away from home, a home of learning”. The
homely feel and warm welcome you get
on stepping through the door indicate an
inclusive, caring culture - values which
have long been held high at the WEA. With
discussion clubs like “The Thinkers Group”,
courses on Women’s Suffrage and Armchair
travel as well as regular speaker slots called
“The Social Issues Soap Box”, a community
of learners are being encouraged to explore,
analyze and expand their horizons.
As our emerging city seeks to position
itself as progressive and forward thinking it
is clear that this centrally located education
hub has a key role to play: it gives us space
to reflect on, learn about and challenge the
world we see around us - whilst nurturing
community both in and outside the
classroom.

FREE digital
media course,
with NCEA built in
For those looking for a role that
combines artistic and digital talents, then
this outstanding, FREE, entry level course
has just been announced by local Training
Provider Trainme, for those wishing
to pursue animation, graphic design,
photography or digital media as a career.
The course covers introduction to
multi-media techniques such as video
production, drawing, animation and
photography. Students will create their own
design concepts and collaborate with other
students on creative projects.
This course is FREE to students aged 16
to 19 and they only have to have NCEA 1
to join. Students without NCEA 1 can be
admitted, if they show artistic or digital
aptitude.
“Many feel that school is not working for
them or they left without qualifications,”
says Rhys Pollard, Marketer with tertiary
educator Trainme. “While not necessarily
academically minded, they do have artistic
talents and are very much into digital
technology.”
“This FREE six-month Trainme course,
combines these in a very hands-on,
SOUTHERN VIEW
practical way, giving them an intro into
various digital media. This way, they can
decide which direction to pursue as their
career focus.”
“As an NZQA approved programme,
NCEA credits are built in, so if they apply
themselves, they can graduate with a New
Zealand Certificate in Arts and Design
Level 2, as well as gaining credits towards
NCEA level 1 or 2,” says Pollard.
“NCEA results will depend on how many
credits they bring to the course to start
with, but as it’s a fun subject, it won’t feel
like school at all.”
Successful graduates from this
programme could pathway into higher
study in media arts, which could include
graphic design, video production,
photography or one of the many emerging
digital-based careers. Places are limited, so
students are encouraged to apply as soon as
they can.

REAL ESTATE
BIG house, BIG future - 5-6 bedrooms
Selling “As is - Where is”
266 Mt Pleasant Road, Mt Pleasant
Auction: Thursday 26th July 12.00pm at Grenadier House, 98 Moorhouse Ave (Unless sold prior)
5 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 3 toilets | 2 living rooms | 1 dining room | 2 car-garage | 6 off-street parks | Listing #FM5441
After many years of deliberating, the vendors
have made the difficult decision and decided
to walk away from their earthquake damaged
home. Make no mistake, this home will be SOLD
on or before Auction day....and some would say
“Their loss could be your gain”.
The floor plan features an open plan kitchen,
dining, living which interconnects with another
lounge. Sliding doors open out to the expansive
upstairs deck. 5-6 bedrooms on offer with 2
bathrooms and 3 toilets. This north-west facing
home has been built for the views and the sun.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a builder to
renew this as a future family home or even a rental
investment for professionals who will appreciate
the Mt Pleasant and surrounding environment.
Beautifully positioned on the Mt Pleasant hill
to enjoy stunning views of the Southern Alps
and the Kaikoura’s, the Estuary and the Pacific
Ocean. Large outdoor deck to enjoy the view or
sit in the spa pool with a double lockup garage
underneath. The home has two heat pumps to
keep you warm in winter plus a security system
for ‘peace of mind’.
Zoned for Mt Pleasant School and close to
Ferrymead shops and restaurants with Sumner
beach a short 10 minutes’ or so drive away.
Auction: Thursday 26th July 12.00pm at
Grenadier House, 98 Moorhouse Ave (Unless
sold prior).
Open Homes: Wednesday, Saturday and
Sunday 1:30pm - 2:15pm.

Ok we know you’ve heard it all before - surprise package, bonus features...
yeah, yeah! But this little unit has some quite unique extras that you’ll want
to take a look at. Nicely located in St Albans, this ground floor unit has a
generous, fully fenced garden. Sunny and sheltered this outdoor space gives
the unit the feel of a much larger townhouse. Added to this the tandem
garage has internal access, both the size and convenience of access being
features you might expect at a much higher end of the property market.
Living, and dining are spacious and open plan and the kitchen adjoins these
areas with a breakfast bar between. The two double bedrooms are well
separated from the communal areas and the bathroom incorporates space
for laundry facilities. A heat pump in the living area ensures economical
year round comfort. The interior is livable but certainly not glamorous. Rent
it out as it is, or re-carpet for an easy overnight transformation. Perfect for
first home buyers or investors, the extras on offer here are definitely better
than a set of steak knives!
