School designs released 

Buildings 

to be 

located on 

high ground 

• By Sarla Donovan 

CONCEPT DESIGNS for 

Redcliffs School have received 

positive feedback from parents 

and staff. 

Preliminary drawings were revealed 

last week at two meetings, 

one for Redcliffs Park neighbours 

organised by the Ministry of Education, 

and one organised for the 

wider community by the school. 

At the first 

meeting, 

architect Hugh 

Tennent and 

MoE lead case 

manager David 

Hobern spoke 

Darren Fidler 

to park neighbours 

about 

work that had 

been done to mitigate the impact 

on neighbours' views. 

The drawings show the school 

buildings tucked into higher 

ground on the south-west corner 

of the site next to Main Rd, with 

car parking further along towards 

Beachville Rd. 

Friends of Redcliffs Park 

spokesman Chris Doudney 

said he wasn't surprised they had 

STYLE: A preliminary drawing of the Main Rd entrance to the new Redcliffs School 

built on that section as it was 

“above flood level” on higher 

ground. 

Asked if the designs showed the 

ministry was trying to mitigate 

the effects on neighbours, Mr 

Doudney said: “I think they have 

a good architect.’’ 

He said he wasn't against the 

school being built there. 

“If it wasn’t a park and if the 

school didn’t have a better 

place I would welcome a school 

in that location; I’m not antischool, 

I'm just anti taking our 

park when the ministry has never 

given a reasonable reason for 

abandoning the school – ever. 

And that’s the key issue.’’ 

Friends of Redcliffs Park have 

sent a 200-signature petition to 

Parliament in a last-ditch bid to 

return the school to its former 

Main Rd site. The petition will be 

considered by the Education and 

Workforce Select Committee this 

month. 

Board of trustees chairman 

Darren Fidler said were “a lot 

of emotions in the room,’’ at 

the meeting for neighbours but 

he thought the opportunity to 

hear from the architect and the 

ministry had been well received.

from the editor’s desk 

THAT IS a fairly impressive looking 

building on page 1 today – the preliminary 

Redcliffs School design. 

It is modern, will fit in to the overall area 

and, if you look at page 7, it doesn’t appear 

that it will dominate the park space. 

And that means room for others. 

Two meetings have been held with the community – one for 

park neighbours, many of whom have been trying to stop the 

relocation of the school there. The second with school staff and 

parents. 

Needless to say staff and parents are happy with the design. 

I suspect this will be a good fit for all. 

And another stoush is brewing in Lyttelton, this one over the 

squash courts which could be closed (page 3).

Squash courts under threat 


SQUASH COURTS at the 

Lyttelton Recreation Centre may 

be closed and replaced with a 

gym after a survey showed they 

weren’t getting much use. 

But the proposal from nonprofit 

organisation Project Lyttelton 

is getting some heat from 

residents. 

And the city council now says 

it wants to speak to existing 

users of the 

courts before 

they make a 

decision. 

Banks 

Peninsula 

Community 

Board deputy 

chairman Jed 

Margaret 

Jefferies 

O’Donoghue 

said he wasn’t 

aware of the 

proposal until seeing a Facebook 

post about it on Friday. 

“As far as I know it has not 

been to the board,” he told the 

Bay Harbour News. 

The city council this year 

tasked Project Lyttelton with 

revitalising the centre, which 

has struggled since reopening in 

2016 after a five-year closure. 

Project Lyttelton chairwoman 

Margaret Jefferies said they had 

surveyed about 130 people to 

find how they used the centre 

currently and what they wanted 

to see more of. 

The results indicated there was 

“hardly anyone” using the squash 

courts who registered, she said. 

“We discovered later that some 

people were using it unofficially 

so we had no record of that. If 

you don’t register you don’t have 

a voice. People were getting in 

and playing for nothing really 

. . . we’re just balancing what’s 

there with what the demand was 

and the demand for squash was 


OUTCRY: A proposal to close the squash courts at Lyttelton 

Recreation Centre is coming under fire. 

very low,” said Ms Jefferies. 

She said they had publicised 

the survey widely online and 

had also spoken to people in the 

community. 

City council head of community 

support, governance and 

partnership John Filsell said a 

closure date had yet to be confirmed. 

The city council would 

take the views of existing users 

into consideration. 

“Council staff have communicated 

with the individuals who 

use the squash court but at this 

point in time not everybody has 

been reached,” he said. 

Mr Filsell said the squash 

court was currently booked 

“on average three to four times 

a week. Over the next two 

months, there are currently 

seven bookings.” 

Some players are angry they 

weren’t consulted and didn’t 

know of the proposal. 

James Sinclair lives and works 

in Lyttelton. 

He said he used the squash 

courts every week but hadn’t 

been approached for feedback. 

“It really is terrible communication 

with the community. 

If Project Lyttelton has ‘put forward 

numerous efforts to engage 

people to give their input’ how 

come I haven’t seen or heard any 

until now?” 

He said 130 was a small survey 

at the best of times, “let alone 

when they’re taking away a 

purpose-built facility.” 

Andy Dopleach said it will 

mean no more squash playing 

for most people in the township 

as the ability to walk down, play 

and then go to a bar/cafe afterwards 

was “big draw” and kept 

the game social and fun. 

The nearest city council 

owned squash courts are in 

Sockburn.

$10,000 

boost for 

Camp Twitch 

CHRISTCHURCH mother 

Robyn Twemlow is out to make 

a difference in the lives of those 

diagnosed with Tourette’s 

syndrome – and a $10,000 cheque 

from the Mazda Foundation will 

help aid her cause. 

Tourette’s is a condition characterised 

by tics, repetitive and 

involuntary movements. 

Five years ago, Ms Twemlow’s 

then nine-year-old daughter 

Analise was diagnosed with the 

syndrome. 

But the pair found there was 

little support for them in the community. 

Ms Twemlow founded the Tourette’s 

Association of New Zealand 

as a way for her family to connect 

with other affected Kiwis. 

As well as running a support system 

for families and an information 

hub for those who have been 

recently diagnosed, the Tourette’s 

Association also began running a 

yearly camp called Camp Twitch. 

It brings together young people 

with Tourette’s and their families 

for a weekend of fun where their 

tics are welcomed. 

At Blackwells City Mazda last 

week Ms Twemlow was presented 

with $10,000 from the Mazda 

Foundation to help run the camp. 

ON FRIDAY, pupils from 

Redcliffs School visited their 

new school site to see an 

archaeological dig up close. 

Stone tools, cooking ovens 

and animal bones have been 

found at the park, which is of 

particular archaeological interest 

as it is the site of some of the 

earliest known occupation of 

the South Island by early Maori. 

Six archaeologists are into 

their second week of excavation, 

and are likely to be on site for 

another two. 

Project archaeologist Tristan 

Wadsworth said they had 

uncovered a “cultural layer” 

associated with a very early 

Maori village, including stone 

tools used for butchery and 

woodworking, and a number 

of hangi/ovens containing seal, 

dog, moa and other bird bone. 

“Once we’ve analysed the the 

material, there’ll be a discussion 

between Heritage New Zealand 

Pouhere Taonga and the appropriate 

runanga as to its ultimate 

custody,” said Mr Wadsworth.

Ray White becomes 

Principal Partner of 

Canterbury Rugby 

Canterbury Rugby is proud to announce 

that Ray White New Zealand’s 

Canterbury network of offices are now 

the official principal sponsor of the 

Canterbury Rugby Union. This exciting 

new development has been made 

possible by the collective commitment 

of Ray White Canterbury offices. 

Last week was the official 

announcement for the new front 

of jersey sponsor, with a night of 

celebration for Ray White and 

members of the Canterbury Rugby 

Football Union, including Head Coach 

Joe Maddock and his coaching team; 

Nathan Mauger, Mark Brown, and Team 

Manager Terry Williamson, along with 

new Canterbury rugby players Whetu 

Douglas and Sam Beard. For both 

organisations, this was an exciting night 

coming together to join forces within 

the Canterbury region. 

CRFU CEO Nathan Godfrey welcomed 

the international real estate company 

to the Canterbury Rugby family: “Ray 

White is a well-respected brand with a 

reputation for excellence and integrity; 

and we share with them a passion 

for our community, our city and the 

greater Canterbury region. We thank 

the team at Ray White New Zealand for 

committing to a long term partnership 

as Canterbury Rugby’s 

Principal Partner, and we 

look forward to kicking off 

our 2018 representative 

season alongside them.” 

Jane Meyer, South Island 

Regional Manager for 

Ray White New Zealand said: “the 

opportunity to become the principal 

sponsor for Canterbury Rugby was 

an easy decision to make. Canterbury 

Rugby is synonymous with success, the 

province has a long and proud history 

of achievement on and off the field. 

Ray White New Zealand has a strong 

community involvement throughout 

the country, and we are excited about 

the opportunity to support Canterbury 

Rugby.” 

And here at Ray White Ferrymead we 

are feeling very proud to be part of this 

winning team!

LOCATION: The school buildings sit on elevated ground. 

Designs released for 

new Redcliffs School 

•From page 1 

He said the school 

was very happy with the 

designs which “delivered 

perfectly” on their 

education brief – the 

blueprint for the style 

of education the school 

wanted to provide. 

The connection from 

Moa Bone cave through to 

the water was important 

and that was reflected in 

the ‘spine’ of the school 

running from the cave to 

the water, said Dr Fidler. 

“We’ve also tried to 

keep the buildings up on 

the higher level so we’re 

not encroaching on the 

park and also angle them 

towards the city to be 

sensitive to the views of the 

park’s neighbours.” 

And the buildings are 

configured to provide 

shelter from easterly 

winds. 

Internally, the spaces 

would be configured to 

allow for co-teaching “but 

with plenty of breakout 

and quiet spaces.” 

Dr Fidler said parents 

and teachers from Redcliffs 

School had visited other 

schools around the country 

to gather ideas and Tai 

Tapu was one they really 

liked. 

“Because of the different 

nature of the topography 

there it won’t look like Tai 

Tapu School (outside) but 

a lot of the things with 

regards to the layout of the 

spaces, how the teachers 

work together and the scale 

of the spaces will be very 

similar.” 

It was likely there would 

be minor alterations to the 

final design over the next 

few months, he said, with 

construction expected to 

begin towards the end of 

the year and a completion 

date at the end of 2019. 

The new school will accommodate 

a roll of 300.

Classroom future undecided 


THE FUTURE use of 

a building that is set to 

remain on the former 

Redcliffs School site is 

undecided. 

A large, modern classroom 

on the southern 

boundary of the Main Rd 

campus will be retained 

for community use when 

the historic 1921 hall and a 

1940s open air classroom 

are demolished later this 

month. 

The Linwood-Central- 

Heathcote Community 

Board decided to keep the 

building for community 

use as it is undamaged 

and being located on the 

southern boundary means 

it won’t interfere with the 

two new playing fields to 

be constructed. 

Labour MP Ruth 

Dyson has written to the 

board to find out what 

is happening with the 

building on behalf of the 

Redcliffs Community 

Shed. 

Board member Darrell 

Latham said there would 

be further consultation 

with the community over 

the issue. “Clearly, there 

are no shortages of groups 

wishing to use the facility. 

The board see the opportunity 

for a number of 

groups to use the buildings 

and further discussion 

and consultation with the 

community will enable the 

board to progress community 

use of the buildings,” 

said Dr Latham. 

A car park, children’s 

playground, sandpit, shade 

sails, decking, the garden 

adjacent to the car park 

and trees, in-built furniture, 

playground pathway, 

and boundary fencing will 

also remain.

New arena on cards for Wonky Donkey 



NOT MANY people know that 

Sumner has a riding school 

tucked away at the bottom of 

Evans Pass. 

And few would have heard that 

it is home to a real-life ‘Wonky 

Donkey’, aka Tilly. 

Sumner Valley Riding School 

owner Lisa Hadfield has leased 

2.4ha of the city-council-owned 

Sumnervale Reserve for the past 

35 years, providing communitybased 

services for children, 

teenagers and adults. 

She takes pre-schoolers for 

walks on Tilly, hosts children’s 

parties, and trains young riders 

to compete in events like the 

Springston Trophy. 

She’s now teaching her fourth 

generation of riders. 

But to continue safely 

providing services all year 

round, Ms Hadfield needs an allweather 

dressage arena. 

The arena would provide a 

surface that protects the horses 

and ponies and their riders. 

“Instead of riding on a muddy 

or too hard paddock, you are 

on a surface that will protect 

the horses’ legs. In the summer, 

the ground gets very hard like 

concrete and that jars their legs 

and causes tendon problems, and 

in the winter, the ground is so 

heavy that you mess it up – it’s 

slippery and dangerous and you 

can do tendon damage as well,” 

Ms Hadfield said. 

She’s hoping to get an allweather 

dressage arena installed 

by the end of the year and has 

the full support of Labour MP 

Ruth Dyson. They met this week 

to talk possible fundraising 

opportunities. 

Said Ms Dyson: “The facility is 

really in need of improvements

an all year, usable terrain, which 

it currently doesn’t have and 

obviously this would be of huge 

benefit to the young people who 

want to ride their horses all year 

round.” The school was a small 

one in an “absolutely beautiful 

area” and was a strong part of 

the Sumner community, Ms 

Dyson said. 

The riding school is non-profit 

and Ms Hadfield supplements 

her income with two part-time 

jobs. A new arena will cost 

thousands. 

“If we get the physical 

help we’re okay,” Ms Hadfield 

said. 

“I reckon we can hire the 

machinery and . . . to put a 

surface down will be between 

$10,000 and $20,000.” 

While it is still in the early 

stages, Ms Dyson said she has “a 

few leads to chase up” but hoped 

to be able to help turn the project 

into a reality.

App to help fish breed 


AN APP is being used 

to identify in-stream 

barriers which can stop 

fish completing their life 

cycles. 

Environment Canterbury, 

the city council and 

Department of Conservation 

have been trialling 

the app created by the 

National Institute of 

Water and Atmospheric 

Research to identify sites 

with obstacles to fish 

migration. 

For two weeks in 

November and December 

last year, Canterbury 

University student Megan 

Brown walked over 

parts of Banks Peninsula 

considered data-deficient 

– meaning there isn’t a 

lot of information about 

streams in the areas. 

They included Port 

Levy, Okains Bay, 

Ōtānerito Bay, Tumbledown 

Bay, Flea Bay, The 

Kaik and Lake Forsyth. 

Ms Brown recorded 59 

potential barriers (mainly 

culverts) for fish across 

these areas and identified 

two sites as being in need 

of remediation to remove 

barriers – Narbey Stream 

STUDY: Ōtānerito Bay was part of a trial to identify 

streams with potential barriers to migrating fish. 

Tributary in Otanerito 

Bay and an unnamed 

stream on Port Levy/ 

Pigeon Bay Rd in the 

Kokourarata Stream 

catchment. 

A barrier is considered 

to be any structure such 

as a weir or culvert that 

fish cannot swim, climb, 

jump or wriggle past. 

This is important because 

many New Zealand 

fish – including whitebait 

and eels – are migratory 

and barriers prevent them 

from completing their life 

cycle. 

After visiting the areas 

and completing a visual 

assessment of potential 

barriers to fish passage, 

Ms Brown entered the 

data into the NIWA app. 

Information such as 

drop height, overhang 

length, water velocity 

and culvert length were 

recorded to inform a 

determination of the fish 

species that would be 

preventing from passing 

by the structure. 

The information was 

used to identify the two 

worst-affected sites. 

Biodiversity funding 

from the Banks Peninsula 

Water Zone Committee 

may be used to complete 

remediation work on the 

sites.

VICTORIOUS Crusaders

School on Friday morning, the 

eve of the Crusaders 37-18 Super 

Rugby final victory over the 

Lions. 

Pupils and staff dressed in 

Canterbury colours to support 

for their favourite team, surely 

bolstering the coach’s spirits as 

he went on to win his second 

title in as many years. 

Robertson celebrated Saturday 

night’s win with his famous

IN-STORE! 

Steven Adams: My Life, My Fight 

by Steven Adams 

For the first time, Steven Adams shares the story behind his meteoric rise from 

the streets of Rotorua to his emerging stardom in the NBA. 

Adams overcame the odds to become a top prospect in the 2013 NBA draft. 

From there he went on to secure a four-year contract with the Oklahoma City 

Thunder - making him New Zealand’s highest-paid sportsperson ever - and forge 

a reputation for his intense, physical style of basketball. 

In this intimate account of his life story so far, the seven-foot centre reflects on 

his humble upbringing, the impact of his father’s death when he was just 13, the 

multiple challenges and setbacks he has faced, early career-defining moments, 

and what basketball means to him. 

Told with warmth, humour and humility, My Life, My Fight is a gripping account 

from one of New Zealand’s most admired sporting stars. 

Life on the Road: Kiwi Trucking Stories 

By randolph Covich 

Kiwi truckies are the unsung heroes of New Zealand - the men and women who 

make great personal sacrifice to keep our country running. The people who 

devote their life, in some way or another, to what is often a hard and lonely 

passion. 

Life on the Road gathers together their fascinating stories. 

It captures the humour, tragedy, action and extremes of the trucking world, 

moving between the dramatic, light-hearted and surprising - including runaway 

trucks, skirmishes with the law, nostalgic tales of the early pioneers, love stories, 

and more than one practical joke. 

Whether you’re a trucking die-hard or just love the wide open road and a 

cracking good yarn, Life on the Road is a gripping insight into the real lives of 

Kiwi truckies. 

View from the South 

By Owen Marshall 

A stunning collection of poems from one of New Zealand’s most 

respected writers. 

David Eggleton wrote of Marshall’s poetry in the New Zealand Listener that, 

‘Above all, the poems are redolent of the South Island – all wild winds and 

dry hills, sleepy summer afternoons, the shimmer of light on lakes, snow like 

whitewash on the Alps.’ In addition his poetry captures the voice and perspective 

of the South Island, whether it is contemplating family or friends, love or 

mortality, the local landscape or further afield, through place or time. 

This collection brings together Marshall’s most powerful poetry from his previous 

three collections with many more recent works. They are complemented by 

photographs taken by his friend and fellow Mainlander Grahame Sydney. 

‘They are an exquisite marriage of musicality, observation, elegance and 

economy. Certain words stand out in his lines like the glint of light on wet 

ground.’ 

- Paula Green, New Zealand Herald. 

No Limits 

by Joanne Black 

How Craig Heatley Became a Top New Zealand Entrepreneur. 

Craig Heatley was still at high school when he created a subdivision on the back 

of $200 saved from his paper round. A few years later, building a mini-golf 

course launched a business that in 1986 saw him become the youngest person 

to have then featured in the National Business Review’s Rich List. 

But it is Sky Television that was his boldest and most precarious undertaking. 

The fledgling company teetered in the early nineties as rugby suffered its own 

crisis, torn between its amateur heritage and the forces of professionalism. 

Heatley could see the answer. Making it happen is part of his story. 

‘Craig built businesses that New Zealanders wanted before we knew we wanted 

them.’

New president takes the 

‘chain’ at Lyttelton Rotary 

Lyttelton Rotary 

recently held its 

changeover night 

at Super restaurant 

in Lyttelton, where 

outgoing shared role 

presidents Donna 

Heenan and Robyn 

Struthers handed new 

president Brian Reeve 

the “chain” of office 

A GOOD night was 

enjoyed by all who 

attended the changeover, 

including area 

representatives from 

Rotary in Canterbury. 

Robyn Struthers 

was presented with a 

Rotary sapphire pin for 

service to the Lyttelton 

community over recent 

years, especially during 

the earthquakes. She 

was just one of the club 

members who supported 

the community during 

this time, but it was an 

unexpected surprise to her 

to receive the accolade. 

The club is in good heart 

and looks forward to some 

exciting projects that it 

aims to embark on in the 

coming months with new 

president Brian Reeve at 

the helm. 

The focus with a new 

president is to try and 

encourage growth in the 

club, plus more activities 

within the Lyttelton 


Harbour Basin as Mr 

Reeve and his wife live in 

Diamond Harbour. 

If you would like to be 

involved, get in touch with 

the club and feel free to 

come along to one of its 

fortnightly Monday night 

meetings. 

At the end of last month, 

the club began with a 

fundraising movie night, 

filling two theatres to see 

Mamma Mia! Here We Go 

Again, which was enjoyed 

immensely. 

The Lyttelton club was 

supported at this event by 

other members from the 

Papanui, Ferrymead, Linwood, 

Woolston, Christchurch 

South and Garden 

City Rotary clubs.

Earthquake claims 

still not settled? 

Our newspapers are full of stories 

recounting the problems many home 

owners are having in settling their 

earthquake claims. EQC’s repairs 

failing, and insurance companies not 

meeting their 

obligations, 

are common 

problems being 

experienced. 

Aurum Building 

Brokers manager, 

Chris Seque, 

advises that to 

be in a position 

to challenge EQC and/or your insurer, 

you need “best” evidence. 

Homeowners need to prove their loss: 

1. The property has suffered 

earthquake damage 

2. The property is covered by 

an insurance contract for the 

damage. 

3. The damage needs to be 

appropriately assessed. 

4. A reinstatement 

solution needs to 

be prepared that 

describes the standard 

of repair required in 

terms of the insuarnce 

policy and the EQC 

act. 

5. The cost of 

reinstatement needs to be 

quantified. 

Chris advises that Aurum Building 

Brokers has been helping Christchurch 

home owners for the past six years 

in preparing the evidence portfolios 

needed for advocates and lawyers 

to negotiate their claims with insurers. 

Aurum’s professional network can 

introduce homeowners to the people 

who can provide evidence written in 

a format to challenge the assessments 

provided by EQC’s or the insurer’s 

appointed experts. 

If you are uncertain about your claim 

talk to Chris on 021 400177. 

FREE 

No obligation 

inspection of 

your home 

Aurum Building Brokers have completed evidence 

portfolios for over 500 clients. 

Aurum Building Brokers can obtain the professional 

evidence you require, in a format that you can give to 

your advocate or lawyer, to negotiate your correct claim 

settlement. 

To book your free inspection contact Chris, 

James or Sharon on 03 365 4460. 

Earthquake claim still 

not settled? 

Repairs not completed 

correctly? 

Has your house been 

scoped correctly? 

Step 1: To challenge your insurer or EQC, 

you need an evidence portfolio consisting of 

appropriate construction reports. 

Step 2: You then need to seek professional advice

Discover the new CBD by walking 

#ExploreChristchurch 

is a campaign to get 

Cantabrians to visit their 

own central city. Julia 

Evans reports 

GETTING Christchurch people 

to tour their own central city is 

the latest key campaign in a bid 

to see the CBD come back to life. 

People sitting in the winter 

sun, eating lunch and talking 

with friends on The Terrace. 

A group out browsing through 

shops in winding lanes of The 

Crossing for a new pair of boots 

or coat, missing from their 

wardrobes. 

Couples stopping off for a 

mulled wine at Smash Palace 

before heading to Alice Cinemas 

to watch Whitney. 

That’s the vision for the 

central city in depths of winter. 

However, this year’s cold, wet 

season has often left the CBD 

without people and businesses 

struggling. 

But the recently launched 

#ExploreChristchurch campaign 

aims to change that and get people, 

buzz and activity back into 

the heart of the city. 

Bright red flags with “Explore” 

on them line the streets to promote 

the initiative. 

ChristchurchNZ general 

manager marketing, brand and 

communications Tim Loftus 

said the campaign was launched 

in response to requests from 

local businesses to help stimulate 

economic activity within the 

CBD. 

“The #ExploreChristchurch 

campaign is part of our strategy 

to profile Christchurch globally, 

by starting at home,” Mr Loftus 

said. 

“Winter can be a challenging 

time for our newest retail and 

hospitality operators in the 

central city. We’re hoping to help 

change that by inspiring our 

residents to get out and explore 

our vibrant and evolving city 

centre.” 

The General Store gift shop 

manager Sonya Henry said it 

had been quiet, but she was hoping 

Plymouth Lane would fill 

with people through #Explore- 

Christchurch. 

“Sometimes you just need to 

give the suggestion and make 

it into a fun game to encourage 

people back into town,” she said. 

Ms Henry said it would be 

“really nice” to see more people 

checking out the central city 

through winter. 

“Places like New Regent St, 

The Crossing and down here are 

really cool.” 

Pepa Stationery owner Ami 

Muir said things had slowed 

BUSTLE: 

ChristchurchNZ 

has launched 

the Explore 

campaign to get 

people back into 

the CBD. 

down over winter. 

“But that’s always the case, no 

matter where you go.” 

She said the campaign would 

encourage the “whole lot” of 

people who still haven’t been 

into the CBD seven years after 

the earthquake. 

“You need to come in and then 

you can see what’s to come. It 

gets you a bit excited. Otherwise 

if you stay at home, you can get 

quite depressed about the central 

city,” Ms Muir said. 

It comes as the city council 

revealed the findings of its Life 

in Christchurch 2018 survey – 

which said that 77 per cent of 

people say they visit the central 

city once a month. 

Fifty per cent said they went to 

the central city to eat and go to 

bars, 43 per cent went shopping 

and 34 per cent said they visited 

attractions. 

ChristchurchNZ launched the 

as a collaborative initiative to 

engage and inspire residents by 

using the Pockets of Awesome 

Facebook page to highlight 

events, offers and activities in 

the city. 

It wants people to include the 

hashtag #ExploreChristchurch 

when sharing what they love 

best about the CBD with friends 

and across social media. 

Every Thursday this month, 

Otakaro is running lunchtime 

walking tours of the city at 

12.30pm.

SPORTS 

RACE: David Fitch was the best of the Sumner contingent, finishing sixth overall in the men’s 

masters grade. 

Sumner club runners take on 

cross-country national champs 

• By Gordon Findlater 

SIX SUMNER Running Club 

members travelled to Wellington 

over the weekend to take on 

some of the country’s best at the 

Athletics New Zealand national 

cross-country championships. 

Close to 500 runners assembled 

at Grenda North Park to 

take on the muddy track. The 

championships saw national 

champions crowned from the 

under-11 grade through to the 

over 75s. 

David Fitch was the best of the 

Sumner contingent, finishing 

sixth overall in the men’s masters 

grade. His time of 31min 39sec 

across the 8km course was also 

good enough to see him finish 

fifth in the men’s 40 and over 

grade. 

Fellow Sumner runner Nathan 

Jones finished the race 13th 

overall in a time of 33min 28sec, 

good enough for 10th in the 

men’s 40 and over grade. 

Fitch and Jones were also part 

of the Canterbury men’s 35-49 

four person team. Their times 

helped Canterbury to a bronze 

medal, behind Wellington and 

Auckland. 

Rosie Hay, Jennie Nicholson 

and Katherine Fitch all competed 

in the women’s masters 

race. Nicholson finished the 6km 

course in a time of 31min 22sec 

to finish 18th overall and eighth 

in the women’s 30 and over. Hay 

was 20th overall and fourth in 

the women’s 35 and over with 

a time of 32min 41 sec. Fitch 

finished 29th overall and fourth 

in the women’s 45 and over in a 

time of 36min 1sec. 

In the juniors, Maddie Sharpe 

ran the 3km course in 14min 

21sec to finish 12th in the girls 

under-13 grade. 

JUNIOR: Maddie Sharpe 

finished 12th in the girls 

under-15 grade. 

DIRTY WORK: Rosie Hay 

battles through the mud in 

the women’s masters race. 

BIG EFFORT: Katherine Fitch 

finished fourth in the 45 and 

over women’s grade. 

AIR TIME: Nathan Jones 

leaps over a hurdle on his 

way to 13th overall in the 

men’s masters race.

The Pacific: In the Wake of 

Captain Cook, with Sam Neill 

by Meaghan Wilson Anastasios 

A rich, complex and engaging account of Cook’s voyages 

across the Pacific, from actor and raconteur Sam Neill, 

in which Sam Neill retraces Cook’s footsteps, in the 250th 

anniversary year of Cook’s first voyage. 

Captain James Cook first set sail to the Pacific in 1768 - 250 years 

ago. These vast waters, one third of the earth’s surface, were uncharted - but not 

unknown. A rich diversity of people and cultures navigated, traded, lived and fought 

here for thousands of years. Before Cook, the Pacific was disconnected from the 

power and ideas of Europe, Asia and America. In the wake of Cook, everything 

changed. 

The Pacific with Sam Neill is the companion book to the Foxtel documentary series 

of the same name, in which actor and raconteur Sam Neill takes a deeply personal, 

present-day voyage to map his own understanding of James Cook, Europe’s 

greatest navigator, and the immense Pacific Ocean itself. 

Voyaging on a wide variety on vessels, from container ships to fishing trawlers and 

sailing boats, Sam crosses the length and breadth of the largest ocean in the world 

to experience for himself a contemporary journey in Cook’s footsteps, engaging the 

past and present in both modern and ancient cultural practice and peoples. 

Fascinating, engaging, fresh and vital - this is history - but not as you know it. 

The Ghost Tree by Barbara Erskine 

Before you follow the path into your family’s history, beware of the secrets you may 

find… 

Ruth has returned to Edinburgh after many years of exile. Left rootless by the death 

of her estranged father, she is faced with the daunting task of sorting through his 

possessions. Amidst the dust of her old life, Ruth discovers a hidden diary from the 

eighteenth century, written by her ancestor, Thomas Erskine. As she sifts through the 

ancient pages of the past, Ruth is pulled into a story that she can’t escape. 

As the youngest son of a noble family Thomas’ life started in genteel poverty, but 

his extraordinary experiences propel him from the high seas to Lord Chancellor. Yet, 

on his journey through life, he makes a powerful enemy who hounds him to the 

death – and beyond. 

Ruth has opened a door to the past that she can’t close… 

The inspiration for The Ghost Tree lies in Barbara Erskine’s own personal history 

– branching back to the days of Thomas Erskine, her great grandfather, five times 

removed.

“Living Fully in Dying 

and Death?” 

Dying and especially death have become 

increasingly taboo subjects in our modern 

western society. This course will involve reflective 

consideration of the recent important literature 

of how to live life to the full when facing the last 

of life’s major stages of dying and death. This is 

at a time when more people are living longer and 

are becoming more removed from the reality of 

what it means to be mortal. Attention will also 

be drawn to recent research on palliative care and 

how it informs people to face approaching death 

not with trepidation but openness, clarity and 

understanding. This is an information sharing, 

reflective course and is not therapeutic in format. 

It will be a six-week course of 2 hour sessions; held 

on Thursday afternoons, 2 – 4 pm, commencing 

on 23rd August. The course will be facilitated by 

Rodney Routledge and others and be interactive 

in format.
