RESIDENTS WILL get a
chance to voice ideas on how
to use around 50 pockets of
red-zoned land between the
Heathcote Valley and Sumner
this week.
A meeting set for tomorrow
night at Redcliffs’ St Andrew’s
Church would allow residents
to share their ideas and talk to
Land Information New Zealand
about the process of bringing
them to life.
Sumner Community
Residents Association member
Liza Sparrow said food forests
and community gardens were
common suggestions, but people
might want anything.
“Someone might want to
put a disco mat on it, who
knows.
“We’ve got this beautiful land
that can’t have houses on it, but
we might be able to use it.”
The meeting would be split
into two parts – one hour of

then an hour to discuss ideas in
groups.
“We’ll also have Jane Gregg
from Life in Vacant Places who
will explain projects that have
happened in the city, that they’ve
done short-term,” Ms Sparrow
said.
Mt Pleasant Residents’ Association
member Jocelyn Papprill
said she had been part of a group
looking into starting a food forest
since last year.
The Aratoro Pl site was close
enough to the Mt Pleasant Community
Centre, she said, that
produce could be used for jam
making or food preservation
classes.

IN THE media game you need pretty thick
skin if you draw a line in the sand over an
issue.
Even thicker skin if you are the editor,
but those extra layers develop over time
to absorb the battering those in that
chair sometimes get. But when you have a victory for the
communities you represent, it’s rewarding.
Bay Harbour News has gone into bat over the District Plan
building issues which affect many in our area.
So it’s good to see the city council and Mayor Lianne Dalziel
have now done a U-turn on the diabolical situation.
Darrell Latham, who also stood up for what he believed
in, with not a lot of support from his colleagues, reflects on

Police won’t help pay for cameras
Community
board could
now stump up
• By Matt Salmons
POLICE WILL not help pay
for crime cameras proposed in
Sumner and now residents will
seek community board funding.
Concerned residents raised
$4000 to buy two CCTV cameras
last year, but were told they
needed cameras which would
work with the Christchurch City
Crime Camera Network.
The two cameras will cost
$20,000, leaving them $16,000
short.
Police previously told the residents
that money may have been
available for the cameras from a
discretionary fund.
However, a letter from police
to the Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board quashed
its financial support for the
proposed cameras due to a lack
of funding.
South Island police district
services manager Kelvin Giddens
said the budget allocated towards
the cameras had been halved this
year.
Mr Giddens said for the past
seven years, police and the city
council had worked in partnership
to maintain and expand the
camera network.
“We have been advised by the
Christchurch Transport Operations
Centre, who manage the
installation and maintenance
of the camera network, that the
allocated funds will not allow for
any expansion.
Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi
PREVENTION: Sumner residents plan to seek community
board funding for crime cameras after police said they could
not financially support the plan.
“Therefore, regrettably, there
is no existing funding available
to support the proposed camera
installation in Sumner.”
Police and city council staff
investigated possible sites for
the cameras in Sumner on September
11. A report said further
engineering assessments were
required.
Camera advocate Kath Preston
said the lack of funding meant
residents now “had to go to the
[Linwood-Central-Heathcote]
Community Board.”
“All up, we need $20,000.
We’ve raised $4000 ourselves,
but we still need another
$16,000.”
Ms Preston and other concerned
residents want to meet
with the community board next
month to put forward a case for
funding.
“We know they’ve funded
other cameras [in Linwood] in
the past, so they may be happy
to.”
If the community board does
not help pay for the cameras,
the residents would be “back to
square one” and would look at
fundraising, Ms Preston said.
The plan for the crime cameras
was prompted by a spate of aggravated
burglaries in Sumner
and Mt Pleasant last year. A
31-year-old man was jailed for
three years in relation to them
and other offences.
“I’m just taking one step at
a time. This has all become
more complex than I originally
thought it would be,” Ms Preston
said.
“It’s still definitely in the
pipeline, we just don’t have the
money.”

Views divided
on freedom
campers
• By Matt Salmons
SOME WANT more of them,
some want less of them,
opinions of freedom campers in
Akaroa are a mixed bag.
A panel comprising Deputy
Mayor Andrew Turner,
councillor David East and
Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board member
Tim Lindley considered written
and verbal submissions from
Akaroa residents on proposed
changes to the 2015 Freedom
Camping Bylaw on Monday.
The proposed changes would
prohibit freedom camping in
the whole township, but continue
to allow freedom camping
for self-contained vehicles in a
designated area of Rue Brittan.
Common themes from the
submissions included potential
fire risks, lack of toilet facilities,
a need to meet growth in
the town, the impact on local
camping grounds and all types
of tourists becoming the target
of those who “want to keep
Akaroa as a retirement village.”
Concerns were also raised
about “fake” self-contained vehicles,
or campers not using the
vehicle’s on-board facilities.

to ensure projects were taken

Mr Cragg said getting

Mr Cragg said
he would like
to see fruit

as native

to attract native birds back
to the area. “The real pie-inthe-sky
one is somewhere

Linwood-Central-
Heathcote Community
Board member Darrell
Latham writes about
the value of local news
sources in communities
THE FOURTH Estate refers to
the watchdog role of the media.
A role that is most important to
an effective democracy.
Mention the word ‘media’ and
perhaps we conjure up images
of prime time television or lead
stories in the daily newspaper.
However, I’ve been reflecting
on that premise recently and I
have done a complete rethink.
Prime time TV and the daily
newspaper have their place. Both
keep us informed about world
events and national news, distant
places, hatches, matches and
dispatches.
Nonetheless, something was
missing. It took a while for me to
spot the missing ingredient, and
then the penny dropped. It was
one word. Just one word that can
stand alone but the real heart of
it means standing together. That
word is ‘community’.
How do people learn about
their local community? The
main stream media provides the
occasional morsel. However, not
enough to nourish one’s appetite

into the void and tidying
up the site.
The concrete panel slipway
was installed last week
to replace a trial fibreglass
slipway which was too
small for the site.
“It [removing the fibreglass
panels] would be a
minimal cost as it simply
involved unscrewing two

sets of hinges and lifting
out the panels,” Mr Moses
said.
Mr Ebert said he was
not “decrying what they’ve
done” as it was “fantastic.”
“It’s just a pity they didn’t
do it properly in the first
place,” he said.
Mr Moses said the trial
was to see how the $16,000
fibreglass panels would
work in a coastal environment.
“If this had been
successful then those
panels would have
provided an option to lay
on top of other existing
slipways to help extend
their useable life,” he said.
The breakdown of the
$16,000 cost was $3000 for
the panels, $3000 for the
installation and $10,000 to
remove the old, damaged
slipway.
“That cost would have
been incurred regardless,”
Mr Moses said.
The fibreglass panels
were now being used on
an old timber ramp at
Windsports Park to extend
its life.

Our People
Wil Wright
From conflict to the quiet life
Former military man
Wil Wright is planning
to open his Sumner
home as The Film Poster
Gallery to display his
vast collection of original
classic posters. Matt
Salmons caught up with
the 43-year-old Second
Gulf War veteran to talk
movies, conflict zones
and galleries
Where did you grow up?
I was born in Eastbourne on
the south-east coast of England.
My parents worked on various
large stately homes as staff and
we’d live on the grounds. It
wasn’t like Downtown Abby servant
quarters, but we had a home
on the grounds. Most of them
were in the country, so it was a
very rural environment.
Can you tell me about your
family?
My parents are still in the
United Kingdom and my partner
Alex is a a GP, she works as a
study doctor at the Christchurch
Clinical Studies Trust. She’s
a Kiwi, born and bred in Mt
Pleasant. We met through a
friend of a friend. We were living
in Cashmere for the last five
years but we wanted to get away
from the hustle and bustle of the
city and moved to Sumner in
April. Now we walk on the beach
every morning with our labrador
Bindi.
What about your career
history?
My father was in the armed
forces, in the 1st Battalion
Parachute Regiment. From a
very young age he was keen that
I followed his footsteps. I joined
the army at 16 and completed an
apprenticeship as an armourer,
kind of like a gunsmith. I
repaired and maintained the
weapons from handguns all the
way up to tanks and artillery.
After training I was posted to
Germany with the Royal Dragoon
Guards, a tank regiment.
After three years I moved over
to the Royal Tank Regiment,
still in Germany. It was after the
Berlin Wall came down, but we
still had a strong presence there.
From there I went back to the
UK in the late 90s to join the 24
Airmobile Brigade in Essex and
joined P Company, a parachute
selection course, following in my
father’s footsteps. After passing
selection I joined the 16th Air
Assault Brigade was deployed to
Sierra Leone in 2000 with the 1st
Battalion Parachute Regiment.
Tell me about Sierra Leone?
The Air Mobile Brigade had
combined with 5th Airborne
Brigade to become the 16th Air

Gallery, Wil Wright.
Assault Brigade. The first job for
that brigade was in Sierra Leone,
where the Revolutionary United
Front were converging on the
capital, Freetown. The rebels
would butcher locals, chop their
hands and arms off. We were
sent because there were British
ex-patriots over there. Inside
Freetown, it was quite an intense
situation. For the first few weeks
we secured the area. The infantry
would go out on patrol to make
our presence known to the RUF.
United Nations troops who were
being attacked came into our
perimeter to be protected. After
a few weeks, the Royal Marine
Commandos relieved us and we
went home.
Did you fight in any other big
conflicts?
In Christmas 2002, while
with the 1st Battalion Royal
Irish Regiment in the airborne
brigade, we were told there
could be a situation in Iraq.
After Christmas we were shipped
to Kuwait and set up base near
the Iraq border. We drew the
short straw to go over first. The
day and night before we invaded,
we could see Scud missiles
coming over and felt the impact
of them hitting behind us. We
didn’t know what was in them,
so when one hit, alarms would
go off and we would put our gas
masks on.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Did you see frontline combat?
I was attached to a rifle
company, we were the frontline.
Saddam Hussein knew we were
coming, so the troops he put on
the border against us were poorly
fed and armed. The prisoners we
took hadn’t eaten in days and had
odd and sods for uniforms. You
felt sorry for them, they’d been
put there as cannon fodder, these
guys had been through hell. They
were only too keen to surrender
right away. As you approached
a town, you’d find abandoned
tanks, weapons and equipment
and groups of civilians who you
knew had been in those tanks
and uniforms half an hour ago.
They didn’t want to fight, which
was good enough for us. The
locals would hand in weapons
and I would decommission them.
Because we were advancing so
fast we had to throw a lot of them
in the Euphrates River. Eventually
we ended up in Al Amarah.
Shortly afterwards the ceasefire
took place and we were replaced
with peacekeeping troops.
What did you do afterwards?
I felt my experience had peaked
with the Iraq invasion and that
was my time to bow out, after
14 years. I got a job through a
former soldier with Bapty & Co
in the film industry, working as
on-set armourer. I did two seasons
of Dr Who and other shows
like Spooks and The Bill. My first
film was Flyboys, which is about
World War 1 air combat. Most
of the filming was green-screen,
so I would mount the Vickers
and Maxim machine guns on the

fake biplanes and make sure they
worked. From there I worked
with the zombie film 28 Weeks
Later.
Did you get on-camera at all?
The thing with weapons is
they can be quite dangerous. The
props company would rather
a trained person used them in
scenes where they are fired. So,
in Flyboys I was a German fighter
pilot and in 28 Weeks Later I was
a sniper, shooting zombies from
a rooftop. I was also in the last
scene of Atonement because the
crew was in period uniform too.
When did you come to New
Zealand?
I’d previously applied to the
New Zealand Defence Force and
in 2008 I got confirmation that
I had been accepted. I reported
to Burnham for a three-year
stint with the engineering company.
After a short time I was
promoted to platoon sergeant

What did you do during that

I managed some of the cordon

were based in the police station,
which was quite a dangerous

with police officers to deter
looters. We would go to the bars

rebuild before I turned my
attention to turning my hobby
of film poster collecting into a
career.
Where did that hobby come
from?
My father was a fan of the old
black-and-white movies and
post-war British stars. As a result
I was raised on them. Most of
them were war-themed. Along
with that, I developed an interest
in the old posters, which is why I
bought my first one, The Longest
Day. As I grew up I developed
my own taste in movies, like
Ghostbusters and Back To The
Future, and obviously the advertising
material for them. I then
started taking an interest in the
artists who created the posters
like Drew Struzan and British
artist Tom Chantrell. Once you
get one artist’s work in your collection,
you tend to want to get
their back catalogue. My service
around the world allowed me to

pop in to local theatres to see if
they had any spare posters lying
around. It’s quite relaxing as a
hobby. It’s all personal taste, but
having a link to movies as well
is quite interesting. It got to the
point where there was too many
to just store them and I created a
website to sell off duplicate material.
Hopefully, by this Christmas
we’ll be able to open up our home
to people to come and see them.
I’m looking forward to seeing
people’s reactions.
Do you work on anything
else?
No, I’m purely on the gallery
and the website, archiving and
trying to get it set up. Money I get
from selling duplicates and Alex’s
job allows me to concentrate
on forming this into something
more than just a hobby.
Why start The Film Poster
Gallery?
I think these older-style
designs had more relevance.
People might not have seen
trailers then so the only way to
sell tickets was to have bright
and interesting posters. As a
result, some of these posters are
quite breathtaking. If anyone has
any of those around, I’m trying
to draw attention to them that
there are people out there who do
collect them and are willing to
put time and effort in to restoring
them. I’m just keen to show off
some of those old posters and,
hopefully, it will spark an interest
in chasing down those old films
to watch.

$120,000
allocated for
Akaroa toilets
AKAROA WILL soon be able to
provide more relief for tourists,
after receiving a grant towards
toilet infrastructure.
The town was granted $120,000
last week from the Tourism
Infrastructure Fund towards new
facilities.
The Ministry of Business,
Innovation and Employmentcontrolled
fund provides up to
$25 million annually for the
development of tourism-related
infrastructure such as car parks,
freedom camping facilities,
sewerage and water works and
transport projects.
It aims to address capacity constraints,
and support regions in
realising their tourism potential.
Applications are approved by
the Minister of Tourism.
City council head of parks Andrew
Rutledge says the funding
for new amenities will help lift the
pressure of cruise ship visitors,
day trippers and campers on the
town’s facilities.
“The funding approval has
come at the perfect time as
Akaroa works to deal with the
growing popularity of the region
and the multiple demands of domestic
and international visitors,”
he said.
Pathway gets Maori name

The walking track will now

Mrs Rueppell said the name

“It finishes it off really. It’s such

The name had been a secret
before and was being revealed
to grow awareness of progress
on the pathway, which stretched
from Scott Park to Scarborough,
Mrs Rueppell said.

of port
• By Matt Salmons
CALLING ALL Lyttelton
residents, a cast is needed for a
show adapted to be all about the
port.
Twenty people between six and
100 were needed for the Lyttelton
Arts Factory’s biggest community
theatre event, with rehearsals set
to begin next month for the January
show.
Co-directors Mike Friend and
Hester Ullyart will run the casting.
The most produced play in the
United States, Our Town, was a
72-year-old drama about a small
town of average people.
The story had been adapted to
a local setting by Mike Friend,
Hester Ullyart and Joe Bennett.
“This play had to be adapted to
be about our town. Not someone
else’s town. So Joe Bennett and
I have set it at the beginning of
20th-century in Lyttelton,” Mr
Friend said.
Casting sessions would be
held on September 29. For more

of the Lyttelton Seafarers’
Centre.
More than 40 Lyttelton
residents joined representatives
from the Seafarers’ Centre,
Seafarers’ Welfare Board for
New Zealand, city council and
community boards for the
meeting on September 9.
Welfare Board chairman
John McLister said the meeting
highlighted aspirations the town
had for the welcome they could
provide to seafarers.
“No one in Lyttelton wants to
see seafarers standing on a street
corner. They just want a functioning
seafarers’ centre.”
Seafarers arriving in Lyttelton
used the Norwich Quay centre
to relax and contact families.
But funding and volunteer constraints
meant the centre could
only open five nights a week and
accommodate 18 people.
Its lease on the current site
would expire in 2021.
Deputy Mayor and Banks
Peninsula Community Board
member Andrew Turner said
there was also “concern about
how the issue will be exacerbated”
by the return of the cruise
ships in 2020.
“We don’t want to find them
out of a home or ill-equipped to
meet the demand from increasing
numbers of arriving seafarers,”
Cr Turner said.
The city council had no legal
responsibility towards seafarers
welfare, Cr Turner said, but it
was “a question of moral responsibility.”
“The people of Lyttelton made
it very clear that they want us
to provide a quality welcome to
all visitors to the port, and that
includes seafarers.”
He said the city council had
provided $10,000 of operational
funding to the centre this year
and he committed to having
staff investigate ways to continue
that funding into the future.
Using voluntary contributions
from shipping companies
towards the operation of the
centre would also be investigated
with the Lyttelton Port
Company, Cr Turner said.
He said there was a “process
under way” to investigate using
the former Donald St Stables
as a new site for the centre. The
former Lyttelton Museum site
was also considered.
Mr McLister said there could
be hundreds of crew arriving
daily when the cruise ships
returned. “It’s not just a welfare
issue but making sure Lyttelton
can benefit economically from
this,” he said.

Thrilling ride in Sumner rescue boat
Fire rages, homes at risk
Sumner resident Christine
Toner recently joined
the Sumner Lifeboat
Institution to help with
fundraising. She shared
the experience of her
maiden voyage with
Bay Harbour News
I HAD never been out on the
ocean in a small boat before.
I had sailed a tiny yacht on
the estuary, and travelled on a
big ship across the Pacific and
Atlantic to England on my 1970s
OE, but I had never been in big
swells with the top of the sea way
above my head.
Climbing on board Blue Arrow
Rescue, the 12.5m Sumner Lifeboat,
was an easy walk up some
steps inside the Lifeboat Station,
onto the deck and into the capacious,
modern cabin.
I put on the life jacket and
clambered up on to the high seat.
Once settled on my perch I was
surprised to have to do up my
seat belt and adjust a dial to my
body weight. Later on I appreciated
how the clever spring system
used that intimate knowledge to
minimise bounce.
Skipper Heather McDonald
carried out an impressive array
of pre-launch checks and crew
MAIDEN VOYAGE: Christine Toner said her maiden voyage with the Sumner Lifeboat crew was a thrilling adventure.
briefings, and eventually we were
winched backwards down the
concrete ramp into shallow water.
As soon as we were afloat, we
were surrounded by surfers. Undaunted,
Heather manoeuvred
Blue Arrow Rescue (affectionately
known as BAR as in Bee Ay Agh)
around the humans and out into
Scarborough Bay.
Beyond the white caps, the
waves were huge – to me, anyway.
No one else seemed to be
concerned as we climbed up, up
and up then suddenly lurched
over the top and smacked down
into the void beyond. I quickly
understood the value of the seat
belt and seat spring arrangement.
Someone spotted a mussel
buoy, adrift from a mussel farm
in Pigeon Bay.
Blue Arrow Rescue came
up alongside the buoy and the
trainee crew members adroitly
hauled it on board. We roared
off to take it home. Out there the
sea was choppy but much less of
a roller coaster, and we enjoyed
stunning views of a freighter at
the Lyttelton Heads, a yacht, a
tiny runabout, and the gigantic
Whitewash Head cliffs.
What a thrill it was. And
better still, not even a hint of
seasickness. Just excitement and
awe for the powerful jet engines
and strong boat body that
propelled us at 25 knots and still
had plenty left for an emergency.

Design for Collett’s Corner selected
Fire rages, homes at risk
• By Matt Salmons
A LINK to Lyttelton’s creative
chaos put design group in:flux’s
design The Hive on top in
the Collett’s Corner design
competition.
The winners were announced
on Friday morning after the jury
of Deputy Mayor Andrew Turner,
Tony van Raat and Ohu founder
Camia Young came to a decision.
“I would say it was extremely
difficult. It was not an easy decision,”
Ms Young said.
“All three were remarkable, and
I would have been happy with
each and all of them.”
The 1144 online votes also
impacted the decision, Ms Young
said.
When finished, Collett’s Corner
would be a 2300m2 mixeduse
building including accommodation,
workspaces, cinemas,
a bar, restaurant and hot baths.
Winning design group in:flux
was selected thanks to its recognition
of the area’s context, carefully
curated arrangement and
use of scale.
Combining grand size and
human scale were very difficult
to do in architectural design, Ms
Young said, and designs normally
only achieved one or the other.
She said in:flux had also
incorporated many suggestions
put forward by the community
earlier in the competition.
The in:flux team said they were
excited to help realise Ohu’s plan
after winning the competition.
Member Paul Anselmi said
to would be exciting to see how
the community would use their
design.
“On the other hand I think
the proposed prefabrication and
timber construction would be
exciting to see grow and add to
Lyttleton’s unique streetscape
and scale,” he said.
As well as their design being
used for the build, in:flux took
home $10,000.
The other designers, Oto Group
and AHHA were also recognised
for aspects of their designs and
each received $5000.
All three finalists had been
selected from a group of 31 initial
entries and had presented their
designs at a September 6 event.
Ohu was now looking for
business owners for the site
and would hold a second public
gathering on October 17 to share
the outline of the investment
proposal.
CREATIVE CHAOS: Blending with Lyttelton’s creative vibe won
the day for in:flux’s design The Hive.
Young people show passion for our natural environment
By Yvette Couch-Lewis,
chair of the Whaka-Ora/Healthy Harbour project
It has been a while since my last update. The partner organisations
(Te Hapū o Ngāti Wheke, Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu, Environment
Canterbury, Christchurch City Council, and the Lyttelton Port Company)
have been busy since the action plan for restoring the cultural and
ecological health of Whakaraupō was launched at Rāpaki in March.
Our priority has been to drive the implementation of the Whaka-Ora
Healthy Harbour catchment plan and this starts with the appointment
of a manager to begin engaging with the community. One of the key
tasks for this person will be talking to local groups about how to support
community initiatives that seek to restore our harbour. More on this with
our next update.
We have also started to engage with the three schools within
Whakaraupō; Lyttelton School, Governors Bay School and Diamond
Harbour School. The partners have agreed to fund these schools to
undertake a project in their community that will help deliver the goals of
the restoration plan.
Recently, I had the pleasure of presenting our catchment plan to
Lyttelton Primary School. We talked about being a good kaitiaki
(guardian) and what their aspirations are for the future of their
space within the natural environment.
These students will be working on two of the ecological bands as set
out in the plan – Rocky Outcrops and Indigenous Forest, and Hills and
Lowlands – at Urumau Reserve/Port Saddle – on the eastern side of
Lyttelton. It is an area important for native plant regeneration, and
habitat for native bird and reptile species.
We are also supporting Diamond Harbour School, along with the Banks
Peninsula Water Zone Committee, Ministry of Education and Orton
Bradley Park, on projects to restore and celebrate Te Wharau Stream
(in Orton Bradley Park). I loved the passion of our rangitahi (young
people) to care for and restore the korowai we want to weave around
the harbour and its catchment.
At the launch the signed plan was wrapped in a korowai to symbolise
that it now protects the catchment of Whakaraupō. Each partner held
the plan and gave their commitment to its delivery. As part of this, the
korowai will rotate between the partner organisations as a reminder of
their commitment.
In July an important event took place where Rāpaki handed the
korowai over to the Lyttelton Port Company. Rāpaki will always be the
kaitiaki of the narrative of the Whaka Ora korowai yet we understand
that Rāpaki cannot do it alone, nor can the community. We all must
be kaitiaki. Our Korowai is a taonga (treasure) and one day it will no
longer be needed as a protective cloak and it will stand alone to be
admired once the plan is implemented.
Peter Davie (LPC CEO) with Yvette Couch-Lewis and Councillor Andrew
Turner at the landing over of the Korowai.

Firefighters put to test in training exercises
Fire rages, homes at risk
• By Matt Salmons
CAR FIRES, smoke, fire engines
and cliff rescues, Governors Bay
hosted all manner of simulated
incidents for an annual training
day on Saturday.
Volunteers from the Governors
Bay, Diamond Harbour, Lyttelton,
Waikuku, West Melton
and Bottle Lake brigades tackled
scenarios regularly faced by fire
crews.
Governors Bay Volunteer Fire
Brigade chief fire officer Andrew
Norris said the annual event went
“perfect.”
The 52 firefighters and 14
“setters” taking part, spent the
morning rotating between four
scenarios.
“They’re the people running the
scenarios. We call them setters
because they set the scene,” Mr
Norris said.
The four scenarios were rescuing
a heart attack victim from
a dinghy, recovering a crashed
mountain-biker, controlling a

EVERY COMMUNITY facility
opening is a celebration but
you couldn’t have got a better
celebration than the one at
the beautifully-renovated
Scarborough Park playground
recently.
It was a perfect day and the
playground was just full of
children having fun (and their
parents too).
Our local councillors Sara
Templeton and Yani Johanson,
alongside community board
members Darrell Latham and
Tim Lindley, did a sterling job of
conducting the official “opening”
in spite of the fact that it was
pretty obvious that all the locals
had opened it themselves – and
were having a great time.

this project.

DI Callanach, Book #4
Perfect Silence
by Helen Fields
When silence falls, who will hear their cries?
The body of a young girl is found dumped on
the roadside on the outskirts of Edinburgh. When
pathologists examine the remains, they make a
gruesome discovery: the outline of a doll carved into the victim’s skin.
DCI Ava Turner and DI Luc Callanach are struggling to find leads in the case,
until a doll made of skin is found nestled beside an abandoned baby.
After another young woman is found butchered, Luc and Ava realise the
babydoll killer is playing a horrifying game. And it’s only a matter of time
before he strikes again. Can they stop another victim from being silenced
forever – or is it already too late?
Head Kid
by David Baddiel
From the million-copy bestselling author of THE PARENT AGENCY and
BIRTHDAY BOY comes a wildly entertaining wish-fulfilment adventure that
asks the question: what would happen if the strictest head teacher swapped
bodies with the naughtiest kid in school?
Strictest head ÷ naughtiest boy = chaos.
Bracket Wood is about to be visited by the school inspectors. But there’s one
big problem: Ryan Ward.
The maestro of practical jokes, Ryan has played so many tricks that in
the end the Head Teacher just walks out. And then the new Head Teacher,
Mr Carter, arrives. A man so strict even the teachers are scared of him. So
imagine his surprise – and Ryan’s – when they swap bodies.
Now Ryan is Head Teacher – and his mortal enemy is one of his pupils. It’s
every naughty kid’s dream!
But soon Bracket Wood School is in a total mess – and only its worst ever
pupil can fix it...

for the term. Park

MUMS AND staff from Kimihia
Parents’ College collected bags
of rubbish at Sumner Beach last
week.
The clean-up was organised to
recognise the work of Sumner
mum Becky Ward who coordinated
the Family Share event
earlier this year, said college staff
member Bianca Nielsen.
Ms Ward said she had
organised Family Share as
starting a family was “hard
enough, let alone if there is
hardship.”
Said Ms Nielson: “The things
donated have been very useful,
in particular the car seats,
warm winter clothes, blankets
and pushchairs. There were so
many donations that Becky had
organised for the Salvation Army
to collect the left over gear as we
couldn’t take it all.”
“We would like to thank
Sumner residents again for their
generosity.”
Ms Ward said she worked with
Ms Nielson on ways to help the
community.
“I wanted them to feel
empowered as young people
that they too can make a
difference and contribute to the
community,” she said.
Ms Nielson said the group

“We collected one recycled
paper bag of rubbish each.
We started at the new

along the Esplanade and beach to
Cave Rock. Mostly we picked up
bottle caps, cigarette buts, tissues
and wipes. There was the odd
bottle. I think it took us about an

“We had a fun trip and some

Linwood
College
PERSONALISED
PATHWAYS
TO SUCCESS
A NEW SCHOOL IS COMING
We are making it yours
Linwood College is undergoing some major changes. During this time a number of things will be happening as part of this transition into our new school buildings so we want to let
you know about our plans and processes.
• While our school is being rebuilt, Linwood College will temporarily relocate to the existing Avonside Girls' High School site.
• We are organising a farewell celebration for current and ex students of Linwood College to farewell the current buildings.
• Staff are focusing on teaching and learning that allows for students to collaborate, supports engagement and meets the individual needs of our current and future students -
personalised learning.
REBUILD INFORMATION
What’s been happening so far?
Workshops around the physical buildings have been occurring. These have included
staff from each learning area, Architectus - our architects, Mana Whenua and the
Linwood College rebuild team. Your community consultation feedback has fed into the
design of the physical teaching spaces and how the buildings will be positioned on
the physical site. Within our design we have ensured that the teaching spaces are for
30 students maximum with the ability to open up to a teaching space for 60 students
if and when appropriate. We also have smaller spaces for students to work. We want
to be able to encourage collaboration but ensure students are not lost in big open
spaces. High level design meetings occur fortnightly. These meetings look at logistics:
finances, structural and engineering considerations, geotechnical considerations, gas,
water, heating, cooling, ventilation and lighting. The Project Steering Group meets on a
monthly basis. This is when the Ministry of Education and the Linwood College Board
meet, making sure that what is being planned for is actually what the school and the
community are wanting.
Where we are now...
We now have a final site plan completed, and the final outside cladding of the new
buildings has been decided. We are coming to the end of the design phase of the
internal structures, and the individual classroom teaching spaces within the Learning
Hubs and the Innovation and Creativity buildings. A transition manager has been
appointed to oversee the shift to the Avonside Girls’ current site.
Where to next?
We are now looking at developing the landscaping designs that will surround the
buildings. We will be starting to look at internal fixtures and fittings, including flooring,
furniture and fabric finishes within the learning spaces. IT consultation is occurring to
plan the wireless connectivity within the buildings. There is planning about the closure
of the current Linwood College buildings including the Whare and the number of
significant memorials on site.
SAYING GOODBYE TO THE OLD LINWOOD COLLEGE BUILDINGS
As part of preparing for the demolition and complete rebuild of Linwood College, we are
organising a farewell celebration weekend. This will be over the weekend of April 5 & 6
2019. There will be a formal ticketed event on the Friday evening for past students and
teachers followed on the Saturday with a day of farewell open to all current and past
students and staff, and the wider community who would like to join us. This will also
include the closing of the Whare and acknowledging the other significant memorials
around Linwood College. We are remembering and celebrating the rich history that has
occurred in these buildings over the years.
Linda Rutland is chairing the organising committee for this event and is now
taking pre-registrations for the ticketed evening on registration@linwoodcollege.
school.nz. Queries to Linda 021 2398946 or Ken Bye 027 748 0697.
TEACHING AND LEARNING
At Linwood College we are committed to providing personalised pathways for students
to succeed. We are working on developing teaching and learning practices that develop
collaboration between both teachers and students. For us, this doesn’t mean having
everybody in an open space trying to work, but rather more structured environments
where both students and teachers can be successful. For example, at the moment our
year 10 and year 12 Physical Education classes work in partnership with the teachers
planning together.
AVONSIDE GIRLS’ HIGH SITE TRANSITION
WHY DO WE NEED TO RELOCATE?
By relocating for the period of the rebuild, the rebuild will occur faster as the
construction team will not have to work around us. Our students will not have to
do their learning in a building site. Because the timeframe will be shorter, Linwood
College can use the money saved to reinvest into the new school buildings.
WHEN WILL IT HAppEN?
Linwood College will be relocating to the old Avonside Girls’ High School site once
AGHS have moved to their new school on the QE2 site. This will be occurring
sometime in term 2 2019. A transition manager has been allocated by the Ministry
of Education to facilitate this shift, and to ensure that this does not disrupt the day
to day running of the school over this period.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR THE STUDENTS?
It means that our Linwood College staff and students won't have to continue
learning in a construction site. It means that once we have relocated, there will be
little to no disruption until we shift back. Our students will still be able to participate
in sport, major productions and all the other opportunities that Linwood College
currently offers.
CAN I ENROL MY CHILD AT LINWOOD COLLEGE DURING THIS TIME?
Yes you most certainly can. Just contact our Linwood College office on
(03) 9802100 or email office@linwoodcollege.school.nz for enrolment forms and to
arrange an enrolment interview. We will continue to warmly welcome new students
during this transition time.
HOW WILL I GET THERE?
AGHS is only 2.2 kms away from the original Linwood College site. The Ministry
of Education will supply buses from the original Aldwins Road Linwood site to the
Avonside site for the duration of the rebuild. This will be a free service, and will
leave LC to get to Avonside by the start of school, and will leave Avonside at the
end of the day to return to Linwood.

62 Waipapa Ave, Diamond Harbour | $799,000
3 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 1 kitchen | 1 living room/study
1 room summer house | 2 car garage | Listing no. 7373
A labour of love that has now been finished
to the highest standard and is exquisite in
every way. A unique architectural design,
over-engineered and immensely strong
this striking contemporary home is one of
a kind.
Built to maximise the awesome views
of Mt Evans, Purau Bay and our Harbour
this as new (just completed) home will
be sure to impress and delight. Three
double bedrooms, two bathrooms, openplan
living, study, designer kitchen and
beautiful American white oak T&G floors
throughout.
Excellent living flow to three decks over
two levels and a massive internal access
garage/workshop. The location is superb,
the views are forever and an easy-care well
planted and landscaped section with a wee
summer house, the perfect place to sit and
enjoy the view and reflect on how lucky you
are to live in a place like this.
Only 30 minutes scenic drive from the
bottom of Colombo Street. Local amenities
are many and varied to indulge in and in
the pipeline is a cinema, supermarket and
additional shops, as well as the development
of Te Ana Marina at Lyttelton stage 1 now
complete. The local school and Kidsfirst
centre have an excellent reputation and the
zoned high school is Cashmere.
