POSTER BOY: Sumner’s Wil Wright with some of his collection of famous movie posters, which he will be opening as a gallery in<br />

summer.<br />

Hollywood on show in Sumner<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

FILM BUFF and former soldier<br />

Wil Wright is turning his<br />

Sumner home into a gallery of<br />

his more than 12,000 original<br />

film posters.<br />

As far as the avid collector<br />

knew, it would be the first of its<br />

kind in New Zealand.<br />

“There’s a few private collectors<br />

around, but they don’t really<br />

have them out on display.”<br />

The gallery would open this<br />

summer in the home he and<br />

his wife had moved into over<br />

Christmas.<br />

Viewing would be free, by<br />

appointment and in every room<br />

except the “bedrooms and bathrooms.”<br />

“It’s hard to get it all out on<br />

display, we’ve got about 12,000<br />

plus pieces in the collection,” Mr<br />

Wright said.<br />

The former British Army gunsmith<br />

said he started his collection<br />

more than 20 years ago with<br />

a poster from classic John Wayne<br />

World War 2 film The Longest<br />

Day.<br />

Additional<br />

$13.7m<br />

to rebuild<br />

Redcliffs<br />

School<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

REDCLIFFS SCHOOL now<br />

has all the money it needs to<br />

start its rebuild.<br />

The Government announced<br />

a further $13.7 million would<br />

be invested, bringing the cost<br />

of rebuilding the school to $16<br />

million.<br />

Education Minister Chris<br />

Hipkins said the funding was<br />

in addition to $62 million announced<br />

for the Christchurch<br />

School’s Rebuild Programme<br />

in Budget <strong>2018</strong> and was part of<br />

$332 million announced in the<br />

same Budget to support school<br />

infrastructure.<br />

“The funding I’m<br />

announcing today will<br />

bridge the gap between what<br />

was originally budgeted for<br />

Redcliffs School in the rebuild<br />

programme and what is<br />

required now.”<br />

It comes as a petition from<br />

Friends of Redcliffs Park to<br />

stop the relocation and reinstate<br />

the school goes before the<br />

workforce and education select<br />

committee today (see page 3).<br />

In 2013, the school was<br />

approved for funding in the<br />

Christchurch School’s Rebuild<br />

Programme to have its facilities<br />

rebuilt on the existing site.<br />

from the editor’s desk<br />

I’M NOT surprised Friends of Redcliffs<br />

Park think their petition will fail when<br />

it goes before a select committee at<br />

Parliament today (see page 3).<br />

The horse bolted a long time ago in their<br />

bid to stop the school being relocated to<br />

the park.<br />

On page 1 today we report the Government has announced<br />

more funding for the new school.<br />

But Friends of the Park have made a very public point – a<br />

view some connected with the school took umbrage to.<br />

<strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News caught their wrath during our coverage<br />

of the debate. We received numerous emails and calls, some<br />

angry in tone, saying we shouldn’t be giving the park group air.<br />

A tad surprising, given schools are places where balance/<br />

fairness should be taught.<br />

A PETITION to try and<br />

reinstate Redcliffs School to its<br />

original site will be tabled in a<br />

do-or-die meeting today.<br />

Community group Friends of<br />

Redcliffs Park has been fighting<br />

for urgent legislation to prevent<br />

Redcliffs School’s relocation to<br />

the park since 2016.<br />

A 208-signature petition<br />

from the group was referred<br />

to Parliament’s workforce and<br />

education select committee last<br />

month. A decision whether to<br />

take the matter further is likely<br />

to be made today.<br />

Group spokesman Chris<br />

Doudney said it was hard to<br />

feel too confident about the<br />

petition’s fate considering the<br />

fight so far.<br />

“I’d say we’re not very<br />

confident at all. But who knows<br />

though.”<br />

It comes as Friends of<br />

Redcliffs Park is waiting on a<br />

report expected from the office<br />

of the Ombudsman in March.<br />

Mr Doudney made a<br />

complaint against the Ministry<br />

of Education to the Ombudsman<br />

on behalf of the group on June<br />

22 last year, noting the urgency<br />

of the request.<br />

“They said it would be ready<br />

in March, but still nothing has<br />

happened. Then they said it<br />

would be in a couple of weeks in<br />

April, then in May, then in June.<br />

“In the meantime, the<br />

Ministry goes ahead to demolish<br />

the school,” Mr Doudney said.<br />

In a letter sent to the<br />

Ombudsman on August 17,<br />

Mr Doudney said the group<br />

was “very concerned that your<br />

office is taking excessive time to<br />

release your report.”<br />

He said he understood the<br />

Ombudsman could not direct<br />

the Government to take action<br />

with regard to the report, but<br />

said the report would support<br />

the petition in allowing the<br />

group to take its concerns to<br />

Parliament.<br />

Christchurch Central Labour<br />

MP Duncan Webb presented the<br />

petition to Parliament on behalf<br />

Depending on the outcome<br />

of today’s meeting, the select<br />

committee may ask for more<br />

information from the submitters<br />

and arrange hearings of the<br />

evidence from both sides.<br />

If that happened, a report<br />

would be prepared and used to<br />

advise their recommendations<br />

In response to Mr Doudney’s<br />

letter, Chief Ombudsman Peter<br />

to our sales team. Molly joins us<br />

from another Ray White office<br />

after arriving in New Zealand<br />

from Canada late last year. With<br />

high energy and a strong focus on<br />

customer service we’re looking<br />

forward to Molly adding her sales<br />

As Principal Sponsors of the<br />

Canterbury Rugby Team in this<br />

years Mitre 10 Cup we recently<br />

enjoyed hosting our first home<br />

game of the season against<br />

Wellington. It was a great home<br />

win for the boys in red and black and<br />

terrific to see such a good turnout from<br />

a parochial home crowd. It’s always good<br />

to back a winning side and this team has been<br />

provincial champions in 9 out of the last 10 seasons. With Joe<br />

Maddock as Head Coach and Mitch Drummond and Whetu<br />

Douglas leading them around the park we’re expecting big<br />

things from this champion team.<br />

Make sure you get along and support<br />

the boys.<br />

the Official Cash Rate remaining<br />

at 1.75% and interest rates at an<br />

all-time low you would think there<br />

has never been a better time to buy.<br />

realistic expectations. When it comes<br />

to having their house on the market<br />

most would prefer to SELL, not<br />

SIT. Our advice to buyers is to<br />

not sit on your hands too long.<br />

With Summer coming and<br />

ROCK-FALL RISK could thwart<br />

plans for a memorial garden to<br />

honour two Lyttelton men who<br />

died in the February, 22, 2011,<br />

earthquake.<br />

The Norton Cl site, former<br />

home of Owen Wright, was suggested<br />

for a garden to remember<br />

him and Ian Foldesi.<br />

Land Information New Zealand<br />

group manager land and<br />

property Jeremy Barr said it was<br />

“too early” to say if and how the<br />

garden to honour the two men<br />

could be created.<br />

Mr Wright was struck and<br />

killed by a boulder on the Major<br />

Hornbrook track during an<br />

aftershock while he was walking<br />

home after ferrying people over<br />

the Bridle Path from Christchurch.<br />

Father-of-three Mr Foldesi was<br />

walking the Stan Helms track<br />

when the earthquake triggered<br />

a rockslide that swept across the<br />

track and carried him 25m down<br />

a cliff face.<br />

Mr Barr said LINZ considered<br />

a variety of requirements in<br />

approving transitional land use<br />

projects.<br />

“Because this particular<br />

property was red-zoned due to<br />

rock fall risks, the risk to life on<br />

this site will be one of the issues<br />

that has to be worked through in<br />

relation to health and safety on<br />

site,” he said.<br />

As temporary caretaker of the<br />

land, LINZ is able to approve<br />

changes with short term impact,<br />

up to five years.<br />

Rock-fall risk could stop garden<br />

HONOUR: A community orchard has been proposed as a<br />

memorial to Owen Wright (left) and Ian Foldesi who died in<br />

the February 22, 2011, earthquake.<br />

application process.<br />

Last Tuesday, garden organiser<br />

Betty Purdue and two LINZ<br />

representatives met on site to discuss<br />

the options for the memorial<br />

garden.<br />

Mr Barr said LINZ was continuing<br />

its discussions with Mrs<br />

Purdue following the meeting.<br />

Mrs Purdue and her husband<br />

David live next door to the site,<br />

formerly part-owned by Owen<br />

and Megan Wright.<br />

There were four existing apple<br />

and pear trees on site, which Mrs<br />

Purdue said Mr Wright had been<br />

proud of.<br />

“We had a very positive meeting<br />

with LINZ, they were very<br />

helpful,” Mrs Purdue said.<br />

In spite of the rock-fall risk,<br />

she said she was feeling confident<br />

after the meeting and would now<br />

need to “dot the I’s and cross the<br />

T’s.”<br />

“The next step for us is to<br />

wait until we get something in<br />

writing from [LINZ] to spell out<br />

what we need to do legally for the<br />

next step,” she said.<br />

Mrs Purdue said she had spoken<br />

to members of Mr Wright’s<br />

family and all were supportive of<br />

the idea.<br />

“The whole family are quite<br />

enthusiastic about the idea, they<br />

think it would be lovely,” she<br />

said.<br />

A memorial seat for Mr Wright<br />

had already be placed near the<br />

top of the Major Hornbrook<br />

track by his family.<br />

Additional<br />

$13.7 million<br />

for Redcliffs<br />

School build<br />

•From page 1<br />

However, a decision was made<br />

to instead relocate the school to<br />

Redcliffs Park.<br />

Mr Hipkins said demolition of<br />

buildings on the old site was expected<br />

to start next<br />

month, with construction<br />

of the new<br />

site slated to start<br />

later in the year<br />

with an estimated<br />

opening in 2020.<br />

It has been a long Chris Hipkins<br />

process to get to<br />

the point of starting the build,<br />

Mr Hipkins said, and he was<br />

“delighted” to confirm that the<br />

Redcliffs School community could<br />

look forward to a certain future.<br />

“Once complete, the school will<br />

have top quality learning spaces<br />

for students and staff.”<br />

The designs, released in August,<br />

had the buildings on a higher level<br />

so as not to encroach on the park.<br />

They were also angled towards the<br />

city to accommodate the views of<br />

the park’s neighbours. The design<br />

was configured to provide shelter<br />

from easterly winds.<br />

Boards to<br />

rally MPs<br />

over policy<br />

TWO COMMUNITY boards<br />

are backing an approach to MPs<br />

to reinstate an omitted enabling<br />

clause in the High Flood Hazard<br />

Management Area policy.<br />

At their Monday meeting, the<br />

Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board resolved to<br />

join the Coastal-Burwood Community<br />

Board in writing to MPs<br />

Poto Williams and Ruth Dyson.<br />

Without the omitted clause,<br />

under the District Plan new<br />

developments or intensification of<br />

land use in the HFHMA is to be<br />

avoided. The move comes as city<br />

councillor David East calls for an<br />

independent inquiry into alleged<br />

tampering with the District Plan<br />

in relation to the omission of the<br />

enabling clause.<br />

The boards made their respective<br />

decisions after Canterbury<br />

Coastal Residents United deputy<br />

chairman Warwick Schaffer<br />

sought their support from them<br />

to approach the MPs.<br />

Mr Schaffer hoped the MP’s<br />

support would encourage Minister<br />

for Greater Christchurch<br />

Regeneration Megan Woods to<br />

reinstate the clause through her<br />

Greater Christchurch Regeneration<br />

Act powers under section<br />

71 to fast track a district plan<br />

“I was raised on the old black<br />

and white movies by my father,<br />

and that always stuck with me.<br />

The old posters had some fantastic<br />

artwork, painted by artists, it’s<br />

all cast montages these days.”<br />

Mr Wright spent 14 years<br />

in the British Army including<br />

service with the 5th Battalion’s<br />

paratroopers in Sierra Leone and<br />

five months of 2003 during the<br />

opening stages of the second Gulf<br />

War in Iraq with the Royal Irish<br />

Regiment paratroopers.<br />

After returning from Iraq the<br />

film-buff got a job through a<br />

friend in the United Kingdom’s<br />

film industry, teaching actors<br />

how to convincingly use prop<br />

weapons on the sets of productions<br />

like Atonement, Flyboys,<br />

The Golden Compass and Dr<br />

Who.<br />

Three years later, he was accepted<br />

for the New Zealand<br />

Defence Force and moved to<br />

Burnham, along with his collection.<br />

After leaving military life<br />

behind in 2011, Mr Wright spent<br />

three years as a project manager<br />

at the Art Centre before leaving<br />

in 2014 to make a career out of<br />

his collection and gallery.<br />

Collecting original film posters<br />

is not common in New Zealand<br />

Mr Wright said, and he hoped<br />

opening the gallery would<br />

encourage appreciation for the<br />

original material. “You can buy a<br />

print of anything, but that’s just a<br />

print. It has no age to it, no story.”<br />

One of his favourite pieces is<br />

from pre-World War 1 medieval<br />

drama Ivanhoe.<br />

“It’s from 1913 and quite rare,<br />

I think there’s only three of them<br />

left. . . It’s 1<strong>05</strong> years old and it<br />

looks like a work of art.”<br />

He also has a poster from 1937<br />

adventure film The Mysterious<br />

Pilot, about the real exploits of<br />

famed aviator Frank Hawks.<br />

As it is possibly the last example<br />

of the poster, it had needed<br />

extensive restoration.<br />

“Our main focus is to save<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

NOSTALGIA:<br />

Wil Wright<br />

said many of<br />

his posters,<br />

such as Dirty<br />

Harry, To Kill a<br />

Mockingbird,<br />

Rocky and<br />

Blow Up<br />

were the films<br />

he grew up<br />

watching.<br />

these things which weren’t meant<br />

to survive,” Mr Wright said.<br />

None of the prints on display<br />

were for sale, Mr Wright said<br />

Funding would come from selling<br />

duplicates on his website.<br />

“But, if anyone has anything<br />

hidden away, please let us know.<br />

We’ll buy it off them to restore<br />

and display it.”<br />

AHHA: Chance Encounter<br />

The concept is based on creating<br />

places and spaces for chance<br />

encounters and interactions<br />

with others. This is a place that<br />

stimulates conversation and will<br />

become a hub for community<br />

gathering. Each activity housed<br />

in the building interacts with<br />

one another through internal<br />

courtyards, imbricating<br />

activities, laneways and engaging<br />

architectural forms – creating<br />

a destination not just for the<br />

planned activities but also for<br />

social gathering.<br />

The Hive is a city within a town,<br />

Chance Encounter by AHHA<br />

urban fabric. While the Hive is<br />

uniquely large in scale to house<br />

the multiple functions and create<br />

a civic presence at its prominent<br />

location, its volume was carved<br />

out and modulated to reflect the<br />

grain of London St and allow<br />

permeable sun-filled spaces – a<br />

contrast to the typically dark<br />

introverted buildings. Lyttelton<br />

also possesses an atmosphere<br />

of ‘organic’ and ‘artistic chaos’,<br />

which should not be lost in<br />

this development, but rather<br />

embraced though an ordered<br />

framework that is adaptable and<br />

allows the various characters of<br />

the town to create and grow.<br />

to bring together the landscape,<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

Call to secure cattle<br />

• By Emily O’Connell<br />

FARMERS ARE being reminded<br />

to check their fences after<br />

another car v cow incident.<br />

The latest reported incident<br />

happened on Hororata Dunsandel<br />

Rd last week. The motorist<br />

was not hurt but the cow was<br />

killed.<br />

North Canterbury Federated<br />

Farmers dairy chairman Michael<br />

Woodward said there are a number<br />

of reasons why cattle were<br />

ending up on roads.<br />

“Potentially it’s basic security<br />

hasn’t been followed . . . there<br />

could also be people coming<br />

onto properties who aren’t supposed<br />

to be there that then leave<br />

gates open,” he said.<br />

The crashes are a “good<br />

reminder” to farmers to check<br />

their boundaries.<br />

“With mycoplasma bovis in<br />

the district the need to run a<br />

secondary boundary fence isn’t<br />

a bad thing, especially if it’s at<br />

a gateway then that provides<br />

a double level of security,” Mr<br />

Woodward said.<br />

Rolleston woman Carissa<br />

Maitland who hit a cow last<br />

month on Lincoln Rolleston<br />

Rd said she was lucky she was<br />

driving slowly when the crash<br />

happened.<br />

The incident was “pretty<br />

terrifying.”<br />

She was driving home from<br />

the Crusaders Super Rugby final<br />

against the Lions on August 4<br />

when her she collided with the<br />

cow about 11pm.<br />

Mrs Maitland was travelling<br />

at 30km/h through road works<br />

on the 100km/h road when the<br />

cow “came straight out in front”<br />

of her.<br />

“I didn’t see it at all and so, I<br />

didn’t even brake and it basically<br />

kind of sat on my bonnet and<br />

rolled back onto my windscreen,”<br />

Mrs Maitland said.<br />

The vehicle sustained significant<br />

damage to the bonnet and<br />

roof and needed to be replaced.<br />

Mrs Maitland and the cow were<br />

uninjured.<br />

Her collision is just one of four<br />

accidents involving cattle over<br />

the past two months in Selwyn.<br />

A 27-year-old suffered serious<br />

injuries when she collided with a<br />

cow in Burnham on July 19.<br />

On July 12, former Selwyn<br />

Luxury LIFESTYLE TREAT YOURSELF!<br />

IMPACT: Former Selwyn<br />

mayor Bill Woods hit a cow in<br />

his Mercedes-Benz.<br />

mayor Bill Woods and his two<br />

passengers were lucky to escape<br />

serious injury after his Mercedes-<br />

Benz, travelling at about<br />

100km/h, collided with a cow.<br />

In July, Senior Sergeant Pete<br />

Stills told <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News<br />

road accidents with cows were<br />

a “good reason” for motorists to<br />

keep their speed down.<br />

“Hit a horse or a cow at speed<br />

and you’re in trouble because<br />

all you do is take their legs out<br />

and they come up the bonnet<br />

through your windscreen often,”<br />

he said.<br />

Selwyn District Council senior<br />

animal control officer Steve<br />

Clarke is advising people driving<br />

on rural roads to make sure they<br />

are aware of potential hazards.<br />

“If you do see farm animals on<br />

the road please report it through<br />

our 24-hour line – 347 2800,” he<br />

said.<br />

NOISY: Engine noise from the huge dredge Fairway kept<br />

some Lyttelton residents awake at night last week.<br />

Dredge engines<br />

cause disturbance<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

SOME LYTTELTON residents<br />

were disturbed by the engine<br />

noise from huge dredging vessel<br />

the Fairway last week.<br />

Taking to Lyttelton community<br />

Facebook pages, some<br />

said it was a nice reminder of<br />

what living in a port town was<br />

all about.<br />

Others wanted to know if the<br />

rumbling engine noises were<br />

keeping others up at night as<br />

well.<br />

The Lyttelton Port Company<br />

said it understood the Fairway<br />

was louder than most other vessels<br />

in port, and had been heard<br />

by several residents last Monday<br />

night.<br />

The port company said the<br />

Fairway’s engines made a distinctive<br />

low frequency noise.<br />

“We apologise for any disruption<br />

this has caused and appreciate<br />

your patience,” the statement<br />

said.<br />

While in port, the Fairway<br />

was running on the minimum<br />

possible power, but engine noises<br />

had not reduced significantly.<br />

The Fairway was in port for<br />

two nights and began dredging<br />

operations at first light last<br />

Wednesday.<br />

INADEQUATE: The Lyttelton Seafarers Centre has been operating out of<br />

temporary facilities since 2015.<br />

Bid to increase support<br />

for foreign seafarers<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

A community solution<br />

needs to be found to<br />

support increasing<br />

numbers of foreign<br />

seafarers arriving in<br />

Lyttelton advocates say.<br />

Almost 10,000 seafarers<br />

already visited the port<br />

each year, and that would<br />

only increase as cruise<br />

ships returned.<br />

Lyttelton Seafarers Centre<br />

volunteers have organised<br />

a two-day conference<br />

this weekend, after which it<br />

would hold a public meeting<br />

on <strong>September</strong> 9 to discuss<br />

ways the community<br />

could support their work<br />

and prevent issues arising<br />

from the increased arrivals.<br />

Seafarers’ Welfare Board<br />

for New Zealand chairman<br />

John McLister said the<br />

centre had met with the<br />

Lyttelton Port Company,<br />

city council and Banks<br />

Peninsula Community<br />

Board representatives in<br />

March after a city council<br />

resolution on the matter in<br />

January.<br />

“Council wanted to see a<br />

level of care for seafarers in<br />

Lyttelton that was outlined<br />

by the Maritime Labour<br />

Convention,” he said.<br />

The group would meet<br />

again this Friday on the issue<br />

of whose responsibilty<br />

the care of foreign seafarers<br />

in port was and how any<br />

solutions could be funded.<br />

“The standard of care<br />

for seafarers in Lyttelton is<br />

extremely poor and does<br />

not meet international<br />

standards and a solution<br />

needs to be found,” Mr<br />

McLister said.<br />

The volunteer run centre<br />

on Norwich Quay was<br />

“already inadequate” for<br />

the volume of seafarers<br />

arriving, he said, with<br />

capacity for only 18 people.<br />

Mr McLister said a community<br />

solution needed to<br />

be found so it could manage<br />

higher numbers.<br />

“Let’s get together and talk<br />

about it, see what we can do.<br />

“The public meeting<br />

will clearly indicate what<br />

level of care the Lyttelton<br />

community wants for these<br />

seafarers.”<br />

Mr McLister said involving<br />

the wider community<br />

could potentially see seafarers<br />

putting more of<br />

their money into the local<br />

economy.<br />

As a signatory of the<br />

United Nations’ Maritime<br />

Labour Convention, New<br />

Zealand was required to<br />

provide a support centre at<br />

ports for foreign seafarers,<br />

he said.<br />

Centres like Lyttelton’s<br />

provided a space seafarers<br />

could take a break from<br />

ship-board life, access<br />

to phones and internet,<br />

information on services<br />

such as doctors or a place<br />

to raise welfare issues from<br />

the ship.<br />

HOME RUNS: Finn (left) and Tyler Mounty, brothers who play softball and<br />

football.<br />

Brothers join forces in<br />

national softball squads<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

HEATHCOTE’S Finn<br />

Mounty will emulate his<br />

older brother Tyler when<br />

he plays for a national<br />

softball side in two weeks.<br />

Tyler said having his<br />

brother play his first international<br />

in a development<br />

squad was the St Bede’s<br />

College student’s first steps<br />

towards the dream of playing<br />

together in the Black<br />

Sox.<br />

“That’s definitely the<br />

dream. At the top level,<br />

playing together will definitely<br />

show just how much<br />

we’re made of softball and<br />

how much it runs through<br />

our blood,” Tyler said.<br />

Tyler, 17, was first selected<br />

for a national side<br />

two years ago and this year<br />

played for the under-17<br />

Emerging Sox in the July<br />

friendship series in Brisbane.<br />

This year was Finn’s,<br />

15, first call up to an<br />

international side. He was<br />

set to play for the under-15<br />

Developing Sox in the<br />

Queensland state championships<br />

starting <strong>September</strong><br />

22.<br />

While Tyler had been<br />

disappointed his team<br />

had not taken gold in<br />

the friendship series and<br />

placed third, Finn said the<br />

brothers had been discussing<br />

the lessons learned for<br />

Finn’s upcoming international<br />

debut.<br />

“The Australian teams<br />

are aggressive batters. I<br />

think what will get us over<br />

the line will be our defence.<br />

Offence wins games,<br />

but defence wins titles,”<br />

Finn said.<br />

Playing locally with the<br />

Richmond Keas Softball<br />

Club since they were five,<br />

Tyler said they had kept<br />

pushing themselves to see<br />

how far they could go.<br />

“I enjoy every game. I always<br />

play like it’s my last,”<br />

Tyler said.<br />

Often playing in the<br />

same teams, Finn said<br />

there was rivalry and<br />

banter between the boys<br />

which pushed them to play<br />

harder.<br />

“We both try work harder<br />

than each other. There’s<br />

lots of support though,<br />

both playing infield we<br />

know each quite well. If we<br />

play a bad game, we talk<br />

about it afterwards,” Finn<br />

said.<br />

Tyler said the Richmond<br />

Keas had taken a hit in<br />

numbers during the earthquake.<br />

While they were<br />

slowly regrowing, the boys<br />

said having a core of keen<br />

and talented players had<br />

kept the club competitive<br />

in the intervening years.<br />

Former Black Sox pitcher<br />

Penese Iosefo returned<br />

to the club this season<br />

to grow the club’s young<br />

talent, supporting them to<br />

achieve at the highest level.<br />

In the past three years<br />

the Richmond Keas had a<br />

number of players in international<br />

sides, including<br />

Nikora Wikiriwhi in the<br />

2017 under-17 developing<br />

Black Sox and Tyler who<br />

had worn the black strip a<br />

few times.<br />

Richmond Keas<br />

committee member Penny<br />

Cherry said there were<br />

some talented girls coming<br />

through the ranks too.<br />

Helen Clark - Women, Equality, Power<br />

Selected Speeches from a Life of Leadership<br />

By Helen Clark<br />

A celebration of an outstanding leader who continues to strive and work for<br />

change, and it’s a rallying call for other women leaders, whether they are in<br />

positions of political, economic or social power.<br />

Helen Clark has been a political leader for more than 40 years, since first<br />

running in local elections in the 1970s. She entered parliament as a 31-yearold<br />

in 1981, led the Labour Party to victory in 1999 and was Prime Minister<br />

of New Zealand for nine years. She then took on a critical international role as<br />

Administrator of the United Nations Development Programme in New York.<br />

One of her key focuses throughout this time has been the empowerment of<br />

women and she has paved the way for other women to step up and lead.<br />

With a foreword by the Rt Hon Jacinda Ardern, Prime Minister of New Zealand,<br />

this is a timely and important book.<br />

The All blacks: The Secrets behind the World's Most<br />

Successful Team<br />

By Peter Bills<br />

New Zealand rugby is a dynasty that transcends all national barriers. As a culture<br />

and a model of humility and consistent success, leading to three Rugby World<br />

Cups, the world of rugby continues to look to the New Zealand model for guidance.<br />

Traditionally, the renowned All Blacks and those charged with guiding them have<br />

kept their rules of engagement close to their chests. However now, New Zealand<br />

Rugby has agreed to open their doors to rugby writer Peter Bills to consider the<br />

reasons behind their dominance of the world game in the build-up towards the<br />

Lions Series in 2017 and Rugby World Cup 2019 in Japan.<br />

Throughout this book, Peter Bills draws on case studies and interviews of officials,<br />

coaches and players, as well as people involved in all elements of rugby, right<br />

across New Zealand. The Jersey tells an extraordinary story with unprecedented<br />

access and insight, and explores the basic requirements and immense challenges<br />

required not only to become number one in the world, but remain consistently at<br />

the top.<br />

journeys to the Other Side of the World<br />

Further adventures of a young naturalist<br />

By Sir david Attenborough<br />

Following the success of the original Zoo Quest expeditions, in the late 1950s<br />

onwards the young David Attenborough embarked on further travels in a very<br />

different part of the world.<br />

From Madagascar and New Guinea to the Pacific Islands and the Northern Territory<br />

of Australia, he and his cameraman companion were aiming to record not just<br />

the wildlife, but the way of life of some of the indigenous people of these regions,<br />

whose traditions had never been encountered by most of the British public before.<br />

From the land divers of Pentecost Island and the sing-sings of New Guinea, to a<br />

Roya Kava ceremony on Tonga and the ancient art of the Northern Territory, it is a<br />

journey like no other. Alongside these remarkable cultures he encounters paradise<br />

birds, chameleons, sifakas and many more animals in some of the most unique<br />

environments on the planet.<br />

Written with David Attenborough's characteristic charm, humour and warmth,<br />

Journeys to the Other Side of the World is an inimitable adventure among people,<br />

places and the wildest of wildlife.<br />

A boating tragedy<br />

in Thailand has<br />

navigational safety<br />

officer Gary Manch<br />

thinking about why<br />

we have rules on the<br />

water<br />

I am back at work at the<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong>master’s Office<br />

after a month off.<br />

I was lucky enough<br />

to spend three weeks in<br />

Thailand complete with<br />

30 o C days, great food,<br />

cheap beer and lovely<br />

people.<br />

While I was there, in<br />

the newspapers there was<br />

a lot of publicity about a<br />

charter boat that capsized<br />

killing lots of people.<br />

A real tragedy.<br />

Any death - whether<br />

caused by natural or<br />

unnatural causes – is sad,<br />

but ones caused by human<br />

error can be avoided.<br />

The unnecessary pain<br />

caused to the relatives and<br />

friends of the deceased is<br />

Readers respond to<br />

the article regarding a<br />

drone spotted outside<br />

a Clifton Hill resident’s<br />

window<br />

beyond comprehension.<br />

In New Zealand, we are<br />

very lucky when it comes<br />

to our boating industry.<br />

For both commercial<br />

and recreational boating,<br />

there are sound rules<br />

and regulations in place<br />

to ensure the safety of<br />

everyone on the water.<br />

Sometimes it takes a<br />

tragedy like the one in<br />

Thailand to bring things<br />

into perspective.<br />

When I am out and<br />

about, I spend time<br />

talking to boaties who<br />

are not wearing a life<br />

jacket, speeding too close<br />

to the shore or taking<br />

other risks. Sometimes<br />

the response from them<br />

is: “It’s okay I have been<br />

doing this for years.” or<br />

“What harm am I doing?”<br />

or even “The rules are<br />

for the people who don’t<br />

know what to do.”<br />

The Maritime New<br />

Zealand slogan that<br />

“nobody is faster than<br />

disaster” rings true in<br />

these cases.<br />

Safety is everyone’s<br />

responsibility and the<br />

rules are there for a<br />

reason.<br />

They should be followed<br />

even by experienced<br />

boaties who have been<br />

heading out on the water<br />

for years.<br />

If you are in doubt<br />

about something before<br />

heading out on the<br />

water – be it an ill-fitting<br />

lifejacket, poor weather<br />

or a boat without<br />

communications – do<br />

not go out. Before long<br />

we’ll be entering another<br />

summer boating season,<br />

and this summer my goal<br />

is to ensure we have an<br />

incident-free year.<br />

I cannot do this alone.<br />

I need all you boaties<br />

out there to stick to the<br />

rules and help us avoid a<br />

tragedy.<br />

Susan Kaschula<br />

Passion for community from South<br />

Since arriving back<br />

in New Zealand from<br />

South Africa in 2010,<br />

Susan Kaschula has<br />

been hands-on in the<br />

Sumner community.<br />

Matt Salmons<br />

caught up with the<br />

community-minded<br />

green thumb<br />

Could you tell me a bit about<br />

your early years?<br />

I was born in Ashburton and<br />

I grew up in that area. I’ve got<br />

a rural background, my father<br />

was a farmer. I went to boarding<br />

school in Christchurch for high<br />

school and then I did my nursing<br />

qualification.<br />

What attracted you to<br />

nursing?<br />

At that time, the Government<br />

was throwing a lot of money at<br />

training nurses and we got well<br />

paid. It was a passport to travel<br />

and I’d always wanted to see the<br />

world as a lot of young Kiwis<br />

still do. I literally qualified and<br />

three months later got on a boat<br />

and headed to South Africa<br />

because that’s where Christiaan<br />

Barnard had done the first heart<br />

transplant.<br />

Was that what excited you<br />

about South Africa?<br />

Yes, instead of going to<br />

England, I decided to go to Cape<br />

Town. Three of us headed off.<br />

One of the girl’s mothers had<br />

worked there as a nurse during<br />

the war and she waxed lyrical<br />

about it. It was a magnet for us,<br />

the idea of the wildlife and the<br />

diversity that South Africa offers<br />

at so many levels.<br />

How was the journey?<br />

I met my husband Bryan<br />

on the boat, can you believe<br />

it? He was coming back from<br />

a long trip around the world.<br />

He’s South African and he was<br />

coming back to Cape Town for<br />

work. We met there and we were<br />

GROW: Green thumb Susan Kaschula at work in the Sumner Community Garden.<br />

married and settled down later<br />

on. I continued with nursing,<br />

working in a village community<br />

and the local hospital. When<br />

my children were born I stayed<br />

home to bring them up. Later<br />

I worked with my husband in<br />

mining recruiting when the<br />

children were at school.<br />

What was South Africa like<br />

then?<br />

Because of the country’s<br />

volatile racial situation, this<br />

was before Nelson Mandela was<br />

released from prison in 1990, I<br />

wanted to vote for change. Prime<br />

Minister de Klerk wanted to hold<br />

a referendum to see if we could<br />

have Mandela released from<br />

jail and work with the African<br />

National Congress. But I couldn’t<br />

vote as a New Zealander, so<br />

in order for me to say ‘yes’, I<br />

became a South African citizen.<br />

I then became very involved in<br />

peace movements. I was very<br />

active in speaking to different<br />

political parties and travelling to<br />

peace forums in Japan, Ghana,<br />

Zimbabwe and at the United<br />

Nations. I even happened to<br />

meet Nelson Mandela, totally on<br />

an off chance.<br />

How did that happen?<br />

A group of us were at a retreat<br />

in a big old house in Johannesburg<br />

when we were asked if<br />

we could move out of the main<br />

dining area as there was another<br />

group. Unbeknown to us, the<br />

We will deliver!<br />

whole ANC caucus was meeting<br />

there to see how they would form<br />

the new Government when they<br />

were voted in in 1994. We got to<br />

meet them, it was fantastic. Of<br />

course, all the things we wanted<br />

to ask, we were just struck dumb.<br />

Then Mandela came out and<br />

chatted to us in the grounds.<br />

He had such a sense of calm<br />

and nobility about him. He was<br />

very tall, quite spare and slow<br />

in speaking, but I was very impressed<br />

by him, you could see he<br />

was a leader you could respect.<br />

What else did you do with<br />

those groups?<br />

I spoke to a lot of schools and<br />

communities, teaching children<br />

to respect each other, respect<br />

nature and the environment. I<br />

was involved with that for many<br />

years and also enjoyed studying<br />

philosophical teachings which<br />

resonated with my own life<br />

philosophy. I must say South<br />

Africa was such a wonderful,<br />

dynamic and diverse country<br />

with so many different races and<br />

cultures and it’s a very beautiful<br />

country.<br />

When did you come back to<br />

New Zealand?<br />

My husband and I made the<br />

big decision to leave after 38<br />

years. We were getting older<br />

and were a little concerned with<br />

some of the violence that was<br />

going on. We came out and<br />

bought our house in Sumner<br />

at the end of 2010, just before<br />

the earthquake. We were fine<br />

though, we were out picking up<br />

my two sisters-in-law from the<br />

airport. They were on the plane<br />

when it struck and they didn’t<br />

hear the announcement. When<br />

they got out of the plane they<br />

couldn’t believe how untidy and<br />

messy New Zealand was, with all<br />

this glass and rubble all over the<br />

ground. It took us five hours to<br />

get back and we had no power or<br />

water. We ended up staying up<br />

in Auckland, when people heard<br />

you were from Christchurch,<br />

they just opened their hearts and<br />

doors to you, I was impressed.<br />

Aaron's Surf Report<br />

PEACEFUL: Susan Kaschula (left) in 1998 with Ela Gandhi, granddaughter of Mahatma Gandhi<br />

and a member of the South African parliament, at a peace initiative in Durban.<br />

When did you return to<br />

Christchurch?<br />

We came back a month afterwards.<br />

I later joined the Sumner<br />

Residents Association which had<br />

become quite dynamic after the<br />

earthquakes. I was secretary for<br />

quite a long time and I saw many<br />

excellent community initiatives<br />

because of those earthquakes.<br />

Do you miss South Africa?<br />

My three daughters and seven<br />

grandchildren are still there. I<br />

miss seeing my grandchildren<br />

grow up, but we are in touch.<br />

I phone and we see each other<br />

at least every year. Of course I<br />

miss my good friends too. I don’t<br />

believe in looking back, but I’ve<br />

got such good memories from<br />

South Africa. It was quite an<br />

adjustment coming back to New<br />

Zealand, but I’m loving it.<br />

How did you get involved<br />

with the Sumner Community<br />

Garden?<br />

I started working with Bailey<br />

Perryman who was involved<br />

with the community gardens on<br />

Wakefield St, but that got taken<br />

out with boulders in the earthquake.<br />

Because Bailey’s father<br />

was an audiologist at van Asch<br />

Deaf Education Centre, they gave<br />

us some disused land which was<br />

totally overgrown but it was a<br />

great spot. In November, 2011,<br />

we got it going on all-organic<br />

principles. Out of that grew the<br />

food forest and that’s been an<br />

ongoing passion of mine. It’s also<br />

an education centre for children,<br />

it’s nice to teach them about<br />

where food comes from and why<br />

we like worms.<br />

Was getting into the garden a<br />

learning curve?<br />

No, not at all. I’ve always been<br />

a gardener. Even in South Africa<br />

I had a huge vegetable garden. I<br />

come from a family of keen gardeners,<br />

on both sides, so it’s sort<br />

of in my genes. I just love going<br />

to the community garden, I feel<br />

at home. I would say that’s where<br />

my heart really is, in the community<br />

garden, the food forest and<br />

of course the justice panel that I<br />

find so rewarding.<br />

Could you tell me about the<br />

justice panel?<br />

After the earthquakes there<br />

was a lot of tagging, which<br />

didn’t help with the atmosphere<br />

of poor, old Christchurch. The<br />

city council really started an<br />

aggressive clean up campaign<br />

and as a result I was put in touch<br />

with Te Pae Oranga, a pilot<br />

scheme started in 2010. Instead<br />

of the low-level offenders going<br />

through the justice system, they<br />

could come before a community<br />

justice panel. There’s been such<br />

a great result from these panels<br />

that there’s not as much reoffending.<br />

Sometimes there’s tears,<br />

but they can talk and the idea<br />

is to get them help. I find that<br />

so satisfying. Sometimes it can<br />

be really difficult but you come<br />

away feeling like you’ve really<br />

done something.<br />

So, what’s next for the food<br />

forest?<br />

We’re just starting to get fruit<br />

coming up, but it’s there for the<br />

community in future. We’ve had<br />

a wonderful crops of raspberries<br />

and black currents this last season<br />

and we’ve had a few apples<br />

and other fruits. The artichokes<br />

are coming along as well. But it’s<br />

early days.<br />

IT’S BEEN a cold start to spring<br />

this week but the generally mild<br />

winter has made for some great<br />

surfing conditions overall.<br />

The past month we have<br />

enjoyed a consistent run of<br />

easterly swells and fine sunny<br />

days creating fun waves on all<br />

the city beaches.<br />

Most days have been under<br />

head high which is great in<br />

the winter as its means not too<br />

many big paddle outs and ice<br />

cream headaches.<br />

One bonus of winter surfing<br />

is the clean conditions, colder<br />

temperatures mean we don’t get<br />

the onshore sea breeze so often.<br />

As we head into spring the<br />

easterly winds start to increase<br />

so after work surfs can be a bit<br />

choppy.<br />

The water temperature is<br />

about average for this time of<br />

year sitting at 10 degrees.<br />

We should see a gradual increase<br />

this month before things<br />

really start to warm properly in<br />

October.<br />

The Canterbury scholastic<br />

surf team is off to Gisborne<br />

during the next school holidays<br />

for the National Scholastic Surf<br />

Championships.<br />

There are several local surfers<br />

in the team including Caspar<br />

McCormick (longboard) and<br />

Estella Hungerford (under-16<br />

girls.)<br />

Estella then heads to California<br />

with the New Zealand<br />

junior surf team to compete at<br />

the ISA World Junior Surfing<br />

Games at Huntington Beach.<br />

On the international stage<br />

Paige Hareb finished third in an<br />

important women’s qualifying<br />

series event in Spain, this will<br />

boost her chances at requalifying<br />

for the world tour next year.<br />

If she does requailify that will<br />

potentially earn New Zealand<br />

a spot at the 2020 Tokyo<br />

Olympics.<br />

Paige is competing this<br />

week on the world surf league<br />

dream tour at the Surf Ranch in<br />

Lemore, California.<br />

The only man made wave on<br />

the world surfing circuit.<br />

The week ahead at home<br />

looks like a huge easterly swell<br />

is building over the next few<br />

days and into the weekend.<br />

Hopefully we can get some<br />

offshore winds to make the<br />

most of this next swell.<br />

Break out your best dance moves<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

Currently on a break from<br />

a 13-date United Kingdom<br />

tour, pop artist Leo Sayer<br />

spoke to reporter Matt<br />

Salmons about new albums,<br />

busy schedules and his<br />

excitement for next year’s<br />

Selwyn Sounds<br />

BEST KNOWN for 1976 pop<br />

tune You Make Me Feel Like<br />

Dancing, English-born Leo Sayer<br />

maintains a busy tour schedule.<br />

Relaxing after his UK tour<br />

with a family holiday in Italian<br />

coastal town Porto Ercole with<br />

partner Donatella, Sayer was<br />

already looking to fit in an Australian<br />

tour before the Selwyn<br />

Sounds.<br />

Perhaps surprisingly though,<br />

it would not be the artist’s first<br />

time in Lincoln.<br />

Although he did not remember<br />

much about it, he said he passed<br />

by the area during a New Zealand<br />

tour in the 1980s.<br />

“I haven’t played a show there<br />

but I’ve been in that part of the<br />

world. It’s very pretty country,”<br />

Sayer said.<br />

Every year he said he pushed<br />

his agent for New Zealand dates<br />

and hoped the event in Lincoln<br />

Domain could be a taster for a<br />

future tour.<br />

“It’s always a great audience<br />

down there, I’m just sad I don’t<br />

get there as much as I want.<br />

When this came up I was really<br />

excited.”<br />

His last big event here was a<br />

performance at Hawkes <strong>Bay</strong> winery<br />

Mission Estate in 2014.<br />

“We had a ball down there, it<br />

was a really good one. I think the<br />

angle was the Brits, but I’m more<br />

of an Aussie these days.”<br />

Based in the Southern Highlands<br />

of New South Wales, and<br />

down the road from Jimmy<br />

Barnes, Sayer said he kept busy<br />

working on his upcoming album<br />

Selfie and his personal memoirs.<br />

“My life’s very busy, but no<br />

complaints. I just turned 70 in<br />

May and it’s not getting any less<br />

busy, I’m very happy.<br />

“There’s plenty to do when I’m<br />

not on the road.”<br />

His new album was “a oneman-band<br />

thing” he said, but<br />

had a big sound.<br />

Manipulating the sounds and<br />

developing the album himself<br />

over five months was an enjoyable<br />

challenge he said.<br />

“I’m really happy with the<br />

result.<br />

“I’m a musician, I can never<br />

not be writing. The ironic thing<br />

is, everyone at the concerts wants<br />

to hear the classics from the<br />

catalogue.”<br />

He was not sure if he would be<br />

ready to showcase Selfie at Selwyn<br />

Sounds, but he had been running<br />

his band through the title track<br />

of the album.<br />

“Hopefully we can throw that<br />

in, that would be really fun.”<br />

As well as Sayer, former INXS<br />

front man and Noiseworks singer<br />

Jon Stevens, Eagle Rock writer<br />

Ross Wilson, legendary Kiwi<br />

artists Midge Marsden and Peter<br />

Urlich are on the bill.<br />

Hits such as Gutter Black, Blue<br />

Lady and Walking in the Light<br />

will be belted out by a who’s who<br />

of the New Zealand music scene<br />

known as The Golden Kiwis,<br />

which includes Harry Lyon from<br />

Hello Sailor and Rikki Morris<br />

from Crocodiles.<br />

•Selwyn Sounds will be<br />

held on Saturday, March 2,<br />

at Lincoln Domain. Tickets<br />

are now on sale from www.<br />

Young lifesavers earn Totara awards<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

TAYLORS MISTAKE Surf Life<br />

Saving Club members Louis<br />

Clark and Georgia Stroud’s<br />

leadership skills and talent were<br />

rewarded with Young Totara<br />

Awards.<br />

Both Louis and Georgia had<br />

competed across multiple sports<br />

both at school and in their<br />

own time and held leadership<br />

positions outside of the surf<br />

lifesaving club, either coaching<br />

junior teams or developing sport<br />

in their school.<br />

Georgia has served as a<br />

volunteer life guard since 2013<br />

and represented the club at<br />

regional and national levels.<br />

Louis had also represented<br />

the club and Canterbury in a<br />

number of surf life saving events.<br />

He travelled to Japan in June<br />

to represent New Zealand at the<br />

Sanyo Cup.<br />

The pair received their<br />

awards from city councillor<br />

Sara Templeton and Ferrymead<br />

Rotary Club president Roger<br />

Chapman at the club’s meeting<br />

last Tuesday night.<br />

The awards recognised the<br />

achievements and contributions<br />

of young people, in particular<br />

those who are a role model for<br />

others.<br />

It was open to people under<br />

the age of 21, but children of<br />

Rotary club members were<br />

ineligible.<br />

Each award included two<br />

certificates, a pin badge and a<br />

totara sapling.<br />

Taylors Mistake Surf Life<br />

Saving Club administrator<br />

Adrian Mouldey said the award<br />

recognised more than just the<br />

pair’s time with the club.<br />

“It’s a pretty broad area being<br />

judged. Each of them have done<br />

some pretty amazing things.”<br />

What we’re trying to achieve<br />

is not just good surf life savers,<br />

we’re looking to have pathways<br />

to develop leaders. This<br />

acknowledges that our pathways<br />

system is working, that we’re<br />

producing leaders.”<br />

Mr Mouldey said the club<br />

was always looking to develop<br />

members as both good life savers<br />

and good community members.<br />

Membership of the club had<br />

fluctuated, but was growing, he<br />

recently been confirmed for the<br />

build of a new club house, but<br />

Mr Mouldey said there were<br />

a few more stages to complete<br />

before work would start.<br />

“Within the next 12 18 months<br />

we hope to have the new club<br />

Mandi Ussher visited the<br />

school on August 24 with new<br />

rugby balls, hula hoops, soccer<br />

balls and a set of tennis balls<br />

for each class.<br />

The school’s sports shed had<br />

been broken into during the<br />

BEING ME: A group of Mt Pleasant pupils have started<br />

a website dedicated to making people feel good about<br />

themselves. ​<br />

based on our concerns and<br />

interests. The issue our group<br />

has chosen to do an inquiry<br />

into is “media has a negative<br />

impact on youths’ perspective<br />

of themselves.”<br />

As a result of some media<br />

it stolen was devastating,” Ms<br />

Kearnes said.<br />

“This was all Mandi’s idea<br />

Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi<br />

Inspiring confidence in youth<br />

pressuring youth, we feel<br />

many young people develop<br />

an unhealthy image of<br />

themselves. Some suffer from<br />

eating disorders, depression,<br />

hating themselves, or simply<br />

not feeling comfortable in their<br />

own skin.<br />

As a part of our action, we<br />

created our website Being Me.<br />

Our aim is to achieve<br />

awareness of mental health<br />

issues among young people,<br />

break down stereotypes and<br />

empower youth to be who they<br />

want to be. They don’t have to<br />

look like that photoshopped<br />

model in the latest edition of<br />

a glossy magazine, they don’t<br />

have to be slim and skinny,<br />

have perfectly curled bouncy<br />

blonde hair, or have the<br />

season’s short hair look and<br />

like deep dark colours.<br />

Whether you are in your<br />

youth or an adult we believe<br />

Being Me has plenty of helpful<br />

things to offer you. Recipes for<br />

healthy eating, people you can<br />

contact for help, information<br />

about important issues and<br />

From Pearl Harbor to the shores of Sydney, a secret that<br />

spans generations could unite a family – or destroy it.<br />

Honolulu, Hawaii 1941<br />

On the evening of her sixteenth birthday party, Catherine<br />

McGarrie wants nothing more than for the night to be over, even though<br />

the opulence of the ballroom befits the daughter of a US Navy Rear Admiral.<br />

Then she meets Charlie, a navy officer from the other side of the tracks, a man<br />

her parents would never approve of.<br />

As rumours of war threaten their tropical paradise, Catherine and Charlie fall in<br />

love. But the bombing of Pearl Harbor on 7th December 1941 changes their<br />

lives forever.<br />

Seventy–five years later, addled by age and painkillers, Catherine tells her<br />

granddaughter Kit her story and reveals the tale of a long–lost treasure. Can Kit<br />

uncover the secret and reunite her family? Or will the truth tear them apart?<br />

leave home, and it’s all structured around one family ‘money meal’ each<br />

week (so roughly 20 minutes).<br />

If you follow the roadmap, with tailor-made lessons for each age group, your<br />

kids will know how to do things like:<br />

• Learn the life-changing value of hard work. Set up a fee-free bank<br />

account (or jam jars!). Go on a Treasure Hunt around the house, and sell<br />

some of their ‘stuff’ second-hand.<br />

• Save your parents $100 on household bills. Even ... Learn to cook at<br />

least two low-cost, delicious, nutritious meals from scratch.<br />

Scott’s mission is to make sure your kids are financially strong so they never,<br />

ever get sucked into the traps that middle-aged bankers have devised to rob<br />

them of their money and their confidence.<br />

There are only ten things every kid needs to know about money, and you can<br />

teach them over dinner, once a week.<br />

It’s that simple. Start now - it’s never too early or too late.<br />

4 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 1 large open plan living room/kitchen/dining room<br />

| 2 car garage | 3 off-street parks | plus 2 bedroom cottage | Listing #7407<br />

With spectacular views of Mt Evans and<br />

Purau <strong>Bay</strong> this has to be one of the most<br />

beautiful and sought after properties in<br />

the picturesque Purau Valley. Peaceful and<br />

private this modern energy efficient home<br />

sits on a very usable elevated 5.6 hectare<br />

site, a mixture of very well fenced flat<br />

paddocks, mature trees, some fruit trees,<br />

a meandering stream and a woodlot, so<br />

firewood forever!<br />

North facing, sheltered and enjoying<br />

good sun and lovely views of Mt Evans<br />

and Purau <strong>Bay</strong>. Constructed of Hebel and<br />

block, this 11 year old home (approx) is<br />

fully insulated, double glazed with solar<br />

under-floor heating and a grunty woodburner<br />

with a wetback. There are 4 double<br />

bedrooms, 2 bathrooms including an en<br />

suite and large open plan living opening<br />

onto a North facing patio area to enjoy the<br />

afternoon sun. There is also an internal<br />

access double garage.<br />

The land is fully fenced for stock to a high<br />

standard is well irrigated and has excellent<br />

and priceless water supplies including its<br />

own spring making this versatile property<br />

suitable for a diverse number of uses or<br />

alternatively a great lifestyle property for a<br />

family.<br />

There is also a very tidy modern 2<br />

bedroom cottage set well away from the<br />

main house and also enjoying privacy and<br />

lovely views, ideal as a homestay, Airbnb or<br />

extended family but certainly some income<br />

potential. Plenty of storage with a 3 or 4 bay<br />

shed, easily converted for horses, mature<br />

walnut trees and plenty of places to explore.<br />

Seldom do properties like this come<br />

to the market, here is the chance only 30<br />

minutes’ drive from town to live the dream<br />

and if you desire to be semi self-sufficient.<br />

Local amenities are many and varied to<br />

indulge in and in the pipeline is a cinema,<br />

supermarket and additional shops, as well<br />

as the development of Te Ana Marina<br />

at Lyttelton stage 1 now complete. The<br />

local school and Kidsfirst centre have an<br />

excellent reputation and the zoned high<br />

school is Cashmere.<br />
