Sofia steps up to Junior Tall Ferns 

• By Matt Salmons 

SUMNER’S SOFIA Kennedy 

is finally set to take her first 

step onto the basketball court 

wearing the silver fern. 

Last week the 18-year-old 

was told she would be playing 

for the Junior Tall Ferns at the 

FIBA Asia championships in 

Bangalore, India, next month. 

“I was actually selected [earlier 

this year] as a reserve, but one 

of the other players became 

unavailable,” she said. 

“It will be my first actual 

New Zealand basketball 

representation. It feels good to be 

able to finally put on the silver 

fern.” 

Sofia also competed at 

the cross-country world 

championships in Paris in 

February and then at the 

Australian cross-country 

championships on the Sunshine 

Coast last month.

AKAROA RATEPAYERS could 

be paying $110 more each year for 

four years if a proposed targeted 

rate goes ahead. 

The Akaroa Community Health 

Trust is asking the city council to 

put a targeted rate on about 3000 

ratepayers in the Akaroa area to 

help fund the new health centre. 

Akaroa Pharmacy owner Garry 

Benson said he did not mind helping 

to pay for the health centre, 

but wanted more for the $3000- 

plus he already pays in rates. 

“We get very little service at all 

from the council. There’s no rubbish 

collection at home or street 

lights.” 

Akaroa Village Inn owner 

Shane Mitchell-Bathgate said the 

idea was not well thought out. 

“It sounds like a trivial amount 

but at the end of the day you’re 

making people pay for something 

that’s public infrastructure.” 

Akaroa resident Victoria 

Andrews said she was happy to 

help fund the health centre, but 

felt a tourism levy should be used 

rather than a rate.

get in touch 

from the editor’s desk 

I GET the feeling there will be some fallout 

over the possibility of a targeted rate to 

help pay for the new health centre in 

Akaroa (page 1). 

The Akaroa Community Health Trust is 

asking the city council to instigate a targeted rate for the 3000- 

odd ratepayers in the area. 

That of course will land on people who occupy their own 

homes, and those who have holiday homes. 

Pharmacy owner Garry Benson raises a good point in our article. 

If ratepayers are asked to pay for the health hub, he wants 

more bang for his buck. 

“We get very little service at all from the council. There’s no 

rubbish collection at home or street lights,” says Garry. 

Food for thought.

A RESIDENTS’ group and 

community boards say the 

time frame is not fast enough 

for a city council report on 

resolving issues with flood zone 

management policies.. 

City council staff were set 

to recommend an approach 

to Greater Christchurch 

Regeneration Minister Megan 

Woods to fast track the 

amendment to the District 

Plan at tomorrow’s city council 

meeting. 

The report said staff would 

come back to council with the 

outcome in December. 

Christchurch Coastal Residents’ 

United deputy-chairman 

Warwick Schaffer said it was 

good to see progress, but felt it 

should happen faster. 

“It doesn’t feel like it’s urgent, 

it feels like it’s paying for time,” 

he said. 

The CCRU would present a 

deputation to the city council on 

the matter tomorrow, alongside 

a joint deputation from the 

Linwood-Central-Heathcote 

and Coastal-Burwood community 

boards. 

The city council unanimously 

voted and requested urgency 

on amending the District Plan’s 

high flood hazard management 

policy with an enabling clause 

earlier in the month. 

The absence of such a clause 

has made it almost impossible 

for some Southshore and 

Redcliffs residents to build or 

renovate on their land. 

The fastest method to do 

so would be for Dr Woods to 

invoke section 71 of the Greater 


Flood zone meeting tomorrow 

Call to 

fast track 

District Plan 

amendment 

Christchurch Regeneration Act. 

Another option was asking 

Cabinet to change the Order 

in Council so the independent 

hearings panel can be 

reconvened to address the 

issue. 

Linwood-Central-Heathcote 

Community Board member 

Darrell Latham said the December 

time frame did not fit with 

the urgency the city council had 

put on the matter. 

“From our perspective, the 

time frame is unreasonable and 

needs to be more urgent.” 

Because of the expected 

timing, he said the matter 

could drag “well into next 

year” before residents saw

says the current 

time frame for 

a resolution to 

HFHMA issues is 

too slow. 

any resolution. 

In the meantime, the process 

of building or renovating in the 

high flood hazard management 

area would remain the same. 

Mr Schaffer said city council 

staff had said in the report that 

31 resource consents had been 

processed in the affected area, 

but the CCRU would request the 

numbers on how many of them 

were for rebuilding an existing 

property. 

Dr Latham said that even if 

people were getting consents 

“the social, emotional and 

financial cost has been 

extremely high and that’s totally 

unacceptable.”

Pre-purchasing 

of eco-burial 

plots unlikley 

Fire rages, homes at risk 


PRE-PURCHASING of 

eco-burial plots in Diamond 

Harbour is unlikely to become a 

reality, but an investigation into 

expanding it could. 

Eco-burials in Diamond Harbour 

dominated discussions at a 

Cemeteries Bylaw and Handbook 

review hearing last week, with 32 

of the 40 submissions focusing on 

the issue. Submissions were heard 

by a panel including city councillor 

Mike Davidson and community 

board members Helen Broughton 

and Melanie Coker. 

Cr Davidson said the panel 

would recommend to the city 

council in November to go ahead 

with proposed changes, with no 

provision made for pre-purchasing 

in Diamond Harbour. 

Even only allowing partners of 

those interred could see the site fill 

up too fast, Cr Davidson said. 

“It’s obviously a very sensitive issue 

and I understand the concerns, 

unfortunately, it’s not that simple.” 

Green Burials Group member 

Ann Thornton, whose husband Jim 

was already interred there, said she 

was still confident a “humane” solution 

could still be found for those 

wishing to be buried in “at least the 

same cemetery” as their partners.

COMMUNITY groups between 

Heathcote and Sumner have 

clarity about making ideas for 

uses of red-zoned land a reality 

after a meeting last week. 

On Thursday, more than 60 

residents from Heathcote, Redcliffs, 

Mt Pleasant and Sumner 

met with Land Information 

New Zealand and Life in Vacant 

Places to discuss the process for 

turning some of the more than 

50 areas of Port Hills red-zoned 

land to community use. 

Sumner Community Residents 

Association member Liza 

Sparrow said the meeting had 

been a good opportunity for 

disparate groups with similar 

goals to meet. 

Those who attended had 

left with an understanding of 

LINZ’s processes around groups 

utilising the red-zoned areas, Ms 

Sparrow said. 

“It will break down the barriers 

and it will be good for LINZ 

to connect with the community. 

“There was also a feeling we 

need to get the youth involved.” 

Now residents’ associations in 

those areas would arrange further 

meetings to decide which 

ideas to take further. 

The most out-there idea 

mooted on the night was a mudslide 

on Richmond Hill, but the

realistic ideas were community 

gardens or park areas. 

“Nothing crazy, no dance 

mats,” Ms Sparrow said. 

Mt Pleasant Residents’ Association 

member Jocelyn Papprill 

said the small size of the Port 

Hills red-zoned plots and proximity 

to houses made it “difficult 

to have big, crazy ideas.” 

“The wonderful thing was that 

we got an idea that there is a way 

forward.” 

Heathcote Ward councillor 

Sara Templeton said people 

were “really pleased we’re finally 

starting a discussion about the 

future.”

Ave, was a common theme on 

the night, she said. 

Cr Templeton said she had 

approached city council staff 

to investigate whether shipping 

containers, used to mitigate 

rockfall risk, could be removed. 

The containers had been there 

so long, Cr Templeton said, that 

people may think they had been 

forgotten about. 

She said they were a reminder 

of the damage caused by the 

2010 and 2011 earthquakes 

and their removal would be a 

psychological boost to the community. 

“If they’re not needed, it would 

be great to see them gone.”

Akaroa health centre 

may be ratepayer-funded 

•From page 1 

Banks Peninsula Community 

Board chairwoman Pam 

Richardson said she could not 

comment on the request as she 

was part of the ACHT. 

She said a report would come 

back on whether the rate would 

happen, but it was a matter for 

community consultation rather 

than board approval. 

Deputy Mayor and fellow board 

member Andrew Turner said the 

board had previously expressed 

support “in principle” for the 

idea. 

He said the city council had 

consulted on the concept in “a 

general sense” and would need to 

further consult the community 

before making a decision. 

“The exact area of Banks 

Peninsula subject to the targeted 

rate, the amount of the rate, and 

its duration are yet to be determined.” 

A clause in the agreement to 

build the new health centre required 

a financial contribution of 

$2.5 million from the community 

within four years of the centre’s 

completion, due around June. 

The extra rates would last four 

years, or until the money raised 

reached the $1.3 million target. 

That would combine with the 

$1.2 million already raised by the 

ACHT. 

City council head of financial 

management Diane Brandish 

said staff were looking into the 

request. 

ACHT chairman Gordon 

Boxall said “services being 

established will benefit the entire 

Akaroa and Bays community.” 

“For $2 per week for a fixed 

period of time, this is one way we 

can all have the opportunity to 

contribute.”

Redcliffs School 

principal Rose 

McInerney looks at 

the way the school 

is working to stay 

connected to its 

community 

ON THE cusp of 

our Redcliffs School 

production opening, 

where great excitement is 

building, it seems fitting 

to just pause and reflect 

on the great spirit of our 

incredible community. 

For over seven years 

Redcliffs School has been 

dislocated from our local 

community and as such we 

are always on the lookout 

for ways that we can bring 

our children and families 

together to just ‘be’ a 

community. 

Our school production 

is one such way. 

The production of Annie 

is the fourth time that we 

have asked Sumner School 

to give up their hall facility 

for two weeks so that 

we can bring our school 

together to sing, dance, act 

and celebrate the fact that 

our school is alive 

and well, thriving and 

still doing great things 

in our home away from 

home. 

Our sincere and heartfelt 

thanks to our neighbours 

at Sumner School for their 

generosity, understanding 

and showing the strength 

of community as we all 

look after each other in 

the best interests of our 

precious akonga – our 

children. 

You rock Sumner 

School.

I have also been pushing

commissioners who was 

on the panel. 

They said that it was very 

clear in their decision that 

they wanted to grant relief 

by way of the residential 

overlay. 

This would ensure 

owners of residentially 

zoned land that they 

could build a residential 

dwelling subject to the 

RDA, relevant restricted 

discretionary activity and 

this was to be done on a 

non-notified basis. 

The RDA rule was 

included in the plan, 

however, the policy has 

been omitted and in the 

absence of the policy, staff 

seem to think they have 

no legal basis to apply the 

RDA rule.

nay-sayers are of course 

with us. 

There are experts who 

can apparently calculate 

the trajectory of rolling 

rocks with uncanny 

accuracy. 

The Bridle Path and 

Major Hornbrook Track 

both have signs warning us 

of falling rocks, but remain 

open. 

Mt Pleasant Bluffs track, 

Chalmers Track and 

Morgan’s Valley tracks also 

have the same warnings, 

but are closed. 

After the 2010 

earthquake we breathed 

a sigh of relief because 

nobody was killed and we 

were told it was a once in 

5000-year event. 

A few short months later 

185 people were killed 

including Messrs Wright 

and Foldesi, but that was a 

once in 25,000-year event, 

so the experts were still 

right. 

I wonder if the 

statisticians who assess the 

risk of physical injury from 

falling rocks consider the 

mental damage their red 

stickers and prohibition 

notices do to people who 

are just trying to live their 

lives? 

We each have to consider 

the risk of crossing the 

road or jumping out of an 

aeroplane before we do 

it. Can’t we be trusted to 

assess our own risk and act 

as we choose? 

We do not need any 

more people telling us 

what not to do. The 

establishment of the 

memorial garden is a great 

idea. We should just do it.

LIGHT UP: Te Hekenga viewed at night, with the eels lit up and the woven baskets visible on the 

ground. 

Illuminated eels feature 

in new art exhibition 


THE NEWLY-opened Ka 

Awatea art exhibition contains 

works from a number of artists, 

but Lyttelton sculptor Piri 

Cowie’s piece literally sits high 

above the rest. 

The main exhibition was in 

a converted container at the 

new Lyttelton Museum site and 

focused on miniature 

pieces inspired by items 

in the museum’s collection. 

Cowie’s piece Te Hekenga, 

the migration, 

was suspended above 

on a wire between the 

Lyttelton Coffee Company 

and the opposite 

corner of the site. 

Sculpted tuna eels 

seemed to swim along the wire 

and were illuminated at night. 

The piece was a way to uplift 

the species in people’s minds, 

Cowie said, shifting the perspective 

of them from something 

found only at ground level. 

She said it also invoked a 

Ngāi Tahu creation myth where 

eels came from the heavens to 

earth, the lights on the sculpture 

evoking the light of the stars and 

their celestial origins. 

Piri Cowie 

“It’s a great way to 

acknowledge the sacredness of 

tuna. 

“I hope it encourages people to 

consider them for their future.” 

Each eel was made of an 

aluminium composite and the 

process of designing and manufacturing 

them had taken most 

of the year. 

Cowie said it had “taken a pā” 

to complete, with many 

Lyttelton residents 

lending expertise. 

The final work was 

installed earlier this 

month. 

Cowie had also 

worked alongside weavers 

Paula Rigby and 

Leisa Aumua, whose 

waikawa, or kumara 

baskets, reinforced the 

theme of mahinga kai, traditional 

food gathering. 

“We wanted to show the 

connection, it’s not just about 

the tuna,” Cowie said. 

The waikawa are woven from 

green harakeke, flax, and use the 

whole blade in their construction. 

Cowie called herself a 

“contemporary Māori artist,” 

whose passion was grown by 

her mentors at Canterbury 

University’s School of Fine Arts. 

That passion for Māori art had 

given her many opportunities to 

travel and share her work with 

indigenous artists from around 

the world. 

Cowie’s work had long focused 

on capturing the mauri, or 

the essence, of eels and their 

relationship to the land and 

people. 

“I actually started as a 

painter but I moved on to 

sculpture.” 

She landed her first sculpture 

commission in 2009, designing 

and producing the bronze eels in 

the water feature outside the city 

council building on Worcester 

St. 

The transition to sculpture 

involved “a lot of learning” but 

Cowie said she just “had to find 

a way.” 

Another prominent sculpture 

of Cowie’s was Kirihao, outside 

the Aurecon building in central 

Christchurch. 

It again had an eel focus, using 

another Ngāi Tahu word for the 

species; hao. 

“Tuna are a taonga for 

Ngāi Tahu people. They’re 

really highly valued and most 

people would be aware they’re 

endangered. They’re pretty 

precious.”

Sumner athlete 

gets call up to 

Junior Tall Ferns 

•From page 1 

She finished 16th at the 

Australian champs. 

“It’s been a big year and hard 

at times to balance two sports, 

leadership roles at school and 

academics. But it has been 

rewarding.” 

Sofia’s first big basketball 

tournament was the national 

under-13s in 2012, where she 

played for the Canterbury B 

side. 

“I was getting pretty 

discouraged, but I slowly 

kept going at it and kept 

training.” 

That perseverance paid off 

and, in 2016, she was invited to 

a Canterbury Wildcats training 

camp. 

“It was pretty daunting. I felt 

out of my depth, but I figured I 

had nothing to lose.” 

The year 13 Middleton 

Grange student then took that 

same attitude to an invitational 

secondary school highperformance 

training campthis 

month hosted by Kiwi NBA star 

Steven Adams in Palmerston 

North. 

It was her performance there 

that secured her Junior Tall 

Ferns spot. 

“It was just good to play with 

other top players and adapt to 

other coaches. You have to adapt 

and just go hard.” 

She said the main lesson the 

young players learned was “to 

put everything out there on the 

court.” 

Last month Sofia got her first 

taste of the international game 

while playing for the Wildcats 

against a visiting Hawaii 

University side. 

She said it gave her perspective 

on the United States game. 

The Wildcats lost the game by 

only four points. 

“It was good to get a gauge on 

American basketball styles and 

to see [winning against them] 

was doable.”

Lyttelton Bakery – Taste the goodness 

Dessert lovers from far and near are 

driving through the Lyttelton Tunnel in 

hoards for the Willy Wonka type gourmet 

sweet treats at a small Lyttelton bakery. 

Chocolate-filled syringes stabbed into 

doughnuts, jelly tip cheesecakes and 

cookie cake stackers are just some of the 

gems flying off the shelves at the Lyttelton 

Bakery. 

“I went from making 30 doughnuts a 

day to 350 a day. Saturday is passing 800,” 

said Bree Scott, owner of Glamour Cakes, 

based at the Lyttelton Bakery. 

“The community has truly embraced 

our goodies and we’re so appreciative that 

our customers love and enjoy the treats. 

Bree Scott, owner of Glamour Cakes and Ian Scott, owner of Lyttelton Bakery 

Besides, that’s our goal at Glamour Cake 

and the Lyttelton Bakery, to create food 

people, love to enjoy.” 

Bree, is the 2014 New Zealand Baker of 

the Year and founded Glamour Cake, the 

newest craze taking over the small port 

town. 

Baking for about seven years, the 

Sumner local completed her three-year 

apprenticeship at the Lyttelton Bakery 

after finishing Catholic Cathedral College. 

In 2015, she worked at a boutique 

bakery in Sydney making “ooh la la-type 

cakes”, she said. On returning home from 

Australia, she developed her own unique 

gourmet flare to showcase through her 

treats. 

“I really wanted to do something 

different. It’s not your everyday doughnut. 

And it’s really caught on with our 

customers.” Bree adds. 

She posts her daily creations and 

updates to her Glamour Cake Facebook 

page which has more than 40,000 likes. 

“Social media is amazing,” Bree adds. 

“I never expected it to go this big with so 

many people, this fast.” 

“All the hard work has paid off.” She 

smiles. 

Due to the company’s fast growth this 

year, meeting demand on her own has 

been difficult. On top of her average 70- 

hour work week excluding Sundays, she 

now has one permanent assistant. 

Bree feels privileged to be doing what 

she loves every day, by creating products 

which make people happy. 

“I love how our food is bringing people 

to Lyttelton. We lost a lot of people and 

buildings because of the earthquake. 

This ‘food’ draw is helping people forget 

or overcome their fear of the tunnel 

with delicious, yummy treats in our 

picturesque waterfront community. 

After losing their London St site after 

the 2011 earthquakes, Lyttelton Bakery 

was in a portocom for more than four 

years before moving to their spot at 8 

Norwich Quay. 

The passion for baking runs in the 

family. Bree’s father Ian Scott, owner of the 

Lyttelton Bakery, said the rise of Glamour 

Cake put Lyttelton back on the map. 

“We’re very proud of Bree, she’s doing 

extremely well and teaching the old boy 

new tricks.” Ian says with a hint of pride 

in his reply.

Linda Preddy (Manager) 

Chris Poff (Coach) 

The Lyttelton Rugby Club would like to thank all their sponsors 

for their support for our 53rd annual Titahi Bay Trip 2018 

Steve Mateer 

(Assistant Coach) 

Over the weekend of 14-16/9/18 Lyttelton hosted Norths 

(Titahi Bay) for our annual trip. The game was played in 

summer like conditions with both teams prepared to pass the 

ball amongst the forwards and backs. Norths dominated the 

first half but Lyttelton was still prepared to try their arm at 

team moves. The second half started off with Norths confident 

and they dominated this half as well. But Lyttelton never gave 

in and were courageous throughout the game and scored the 

final try of the match with a never die attitude. Although the 

score was 58-7 to Norths, both teams kept the high standard 

of sportsmanship that this annual match has been played in in 

the past. 

Lyttelton Rugby Club would like to thank the Lyttelton 

Volunteer Fire Brigade for allowing us to use their venue for our 

aftermatch function at such short notice. Our thanks to Mark 

Buckley and his crew for their generosity. 

We would also like to thank all our sponsors, especially our two 

major sponsors Dwayne Pool from Marinetec Engineering and 

The Lyttelton Port of Christchurch. 

The trip was created 53 years ago by two mates, Norman 

(Skeeta) Bachop from Lyttelton and Bill (Pincha) Martin from 

Titahi Bay. They were both coaching teams for their clubs and 

over a few drinks in a local Lyttelton bar they couldn’t agree 

on who had the better team, so it was decided that Lyttelton 

would travel to Titahi Bay and hopefully put this debate to rest. 

So here we are 53 years later and the trip is as healthy at it ever 

was at the start. Looking forward to the 75th year.

Sumner girls robot success 

Sumner School robot creators Naomi Dana and Isolde 

Johnson (above) finished third in the senior theatre 

category of the Robocup Junior New Zealand national 

competition. Their creation, Robo Splat, had 2min to 

perform with the aid of props and music. Dunedin’s St 

Hilda’s Collegiate School finished second and Ilam’s 

Ao Tawhiti Unlimited Discovery won the section. The 

competition had three categories. 


AN ANTI-BULLYING app 

created by Diamond Harbour 

School pupils has got the 

attention of a technology 

company after it was the runnerup 

for a digital technology award. 

Year 8 pupils Fern and Chara 

entered the coding section of 

Grow Waitaha’s DigiAwards with 

their app Bullying Free. 

The awards, held at St Margaret’s 

College this month, provided 

a chance for primary and 

intermediate pupils to showcase 

their digital skills, creativity and 

innovation. 

Fern and Chara impressed the 

judges with their app’s message, 

thought and complexity. 

The app was developed during 

Bullying Free Awareness Week in 

May, and was created to support 

young people experiencing bullying. 

One of the judges, David 

Carter from Stratos Technology 

Partners, said he would like to 

see work on the app continue. 

He said it could be “rolled out 

to schools as part of their new 

pupil induction process.” 

“I would love to see this application 

built and, ideally, the 

application would be built by the 

students themselves with mentorship 

from the tech community,” 

Mr Carter said. 

The app’s design was well 

thought out and an “example of 

how technology can be used to 

help address the issue.” 

“We particularly liked the fact 

that it was not overly complex 

and hence would be reasonably 

simple to build and realise value 

from,” he said. 

The Bullying Free app was 

chosen for its message, thought 

and complexity.

Final chance to catch 

Redcliffs School’s Annie 

Year 8 students Paige Bulman and Otto Elworthy talk 

about the Redcliffs School’s production of Annie 

ANNIE IS a show set in the 

1920s about a young orphan 

who isn’t satisfied with her 

current life and seeks a family 

of her own. 

Billionaire Oliver Warbucks 

takes her in for a week-long 

visit, but from there, things 

don’t go quite as planned. 

Redcliffs School has loved 

preparing for its performance

Each class has taken on a different 

role – from the youngest 

five-year-old puppies to the year

minimum of once every four 

weeks to remove any bodies and 

refresh lures.” 

There will be two options for 

volunteers. They can either look 

after all four trapping lines for a 

full day each month, or several 

people can take on a line each for 

two to three hours a month. 

The park will provide full training 

on how to clear, reset and rebait 

the traps and where the tracks 

are located. It will also provide the 

relevant safety information. 

Gear and training on what to 

record in the field will also be 

given, as well as refreshments 

following the shift. If you want

Ironman ready to take 

on the world in Hawaii 

SPORTS 

ASPIRATIONS: Sumner will be looking to emulate the success 

of their 2016/2017 senior cricket side when the new season 

starts next month. 

Sumner aims for strong 

start to cricket season 


AFTER A LESS than stellar 

finish to last season, Sumner’s 

senior cricket team is ready and 

equipped to recapture their 

former glory. 

Club captain and coach Dan 

Vann said inconsistency and the 

loss of their feeder 

team from division 

three had impacted 

their success last year. 

“We did alright, we 

got third overall. But 

we’d won at least half 

of the trophies over the 

three years before last.” 

Vann said the club 

have a list of goals to 

achieve this season, 

which starts on the 

first weekend of next 

month, 

“At least to win one of the 

three cups – either the one-day, 

two-day or overall. And to 

develop the young guys we’ve 

got, continue our successes from 

previous years and possibly get 

our second team into a higher 

grade,” he said. 

The club also hopes to start 

a women’s team and teams to 

play in the grades under division 

three. 

To achieve those goals, Vann 

said the club have “recruited 

well”, reinstated their feeder team 

and will look at increasing the 

number of training sessions each 

week. 

Dan Vann 

The club have offered a 

scholarship programme this year 

to attract the young blood needed 

to secure their future. 

Three young players were 

selected in the end – spinning 

all-rounder Angus Hooper, and 

skilled opening bowlers Tyler 

Walker and Nawid Mohammady. 

For the scholarship 

players, Vann said 

the club will waive 

its fees, provide extra 

professional training and 

some gear, as well as get 

the players in touch with 

agents for English teams. 

He said they had also 

attracted two top-order 

English batsmen in Tom 

McGeorge and Tom 

Davies. 

The upcoming season 

will have a different 

dynamic than the past, Vann 

said. It will be the first time 

metro clubs would be merged 

at the championship and 

premiership levels. 

“It will be good to play against 

some different players and at 

some different grounds,” Vann 

said. 

This season will be the first 

with new club president Ross 

Gunn at the helm after long-time 

president Ray Steele stood down 

from the role last month. 

The club will also start 

the season with a new pitch 

after members re-laid it this 

month. 


MIKE PHILLIPS is ready for 

his biggest challenge yet – the 

Ironman World Championships 

in Hawaii. 

The Mt Pleasant athlete left on 

Sunday to allow himself three 

weeks to acclimatise and scout 

the track ahead of the October 

13 event. He qualified for the 

championships after taking 

home silver at Ironman Barcelona 

in October, his first ever 

ironman event. 

He finished the 3.8km swim, 

180km cycle and 42km run at 

Barcelona in 7hr 52min 50sec, 

making him the second fastest 

Kiwi ironman ever. 

However, the Hawaii course 

looks “brutal”, Phillips said. 

It includes an ocean swim and 

a coastal cycle track against severe 

wind and baking sunshine 

before finishing with a run 

through a lava field. 

“Apparently there’s lava on 

either side of the track. You’ve 

got to experience it to know 

what it’s like.” 

He said he believes he will be 

able to finish in the top 10 if he 

has a good day. 

“It would be cool to have a 

podium finish, but in your first 

year it’s probably a bit hard.” 

Phillips has spent the last 

two years as a professional 

triathlete after leaving his job as 

a structural engineer to pursue 

the sport. 

“I’m not sure how long the 

body will hold out so I’ll make 

the most of it.” 

As a professional, Phillips 

has competed in more than 10 

events each year, most of them 

overseas, with prize money providing 

enough income to keep 

him going. 

The transient lifestyle could 

be “a bit of a tax”, he said. But he 

formed a group of friends who 

he regularly competes against. 

“You can actually make some 

quite good friendships at the 

GRUELLING: Mike Phillips is in Hawaii for the Ironman World 

Championships on October 13. 

events.” He trains for a 

minimum of 30 hours every 

week, swimming 25km, 

running 100km and cycling 

500km. 

The transition from training 

as an amateur to training as 

a professional has not been 

a”huge jump” as he now has 

more time for recovery, he said. 

“Even after a day at work 

you’re pretty tired and I 

found I was getting sick 

more and injuring myself 

more when I was training and 

working.” 

Make daylight saving 

life saving. 

Protect your loved ones by checking your smoke alarms 

when you put your clocks forward this weekend. If you don’t 

have smoke alarms please get them installed right away.

WITH MARY IN FAITH 

TĀTOU KO MERE E WHAKAPONO ANA 

MESSAGE FROM 

THE PRINCIPAL 

The Marian College Future Focus 

team, which includes Board and staff 

members, is beginning to plan for 

the new school. We are taking the 

opportunity to visit other schools, and 

in particular, to learn from the many 

other rebuilds in Canterbury. 

Our aim is to create a school, which is 

designed to match our quality teaching 

practice. Marian College’s special 

Catholic character, school spirit and 

traditions, such as Feast Day (pictured) 

will also be reflected in our new school. 

A key part of the planning will be 

engaging with our whole community 

for input into the new Marian College. 

Marian College thanks the Catholic 

Diocese of Christchurch and Bishop 

Paul Martin for their ongoing support 

and guidance. We are confident the best 

decision possible will be made for our 

school. 

In the meantime, Marian is continuing 

to flourish. I hope you enjoy reading 

about our latest happenings. 

With blessings 

Mary-Lou Davidson 

Marian College Principal 

HOUSE PANELS BLESSED 

FEAST DAY 

FESTIVITIES 

Feast Day – celebrating the 

Assumption of Mary – is the most 

anticipated religious event on the 

Marian College calendar. Feast 

Day includes Mass, which this year 

was celebrated by Bishop Paul 

Martin SM, a house group singing 

competition, talent quest and 

chanting competition. 

Congratulations to Seymour House for 

top points on Feast Day 2018. 

Marian College parents Luke Carey and 

Janine Altenburg-Carey have created 

four woven house panels, made from the 

majestic pin oak which once stood on the 

former Marian College site. 

The panels represent the four Marian 

College houses – Takahe, Deans, Seymour 

and Brodie – and were blessed by Bishop 

Paul Martin SM at Mass on Marian’s 

celebration of Feast Day this term. To 

discover the story and meaning behind the 

panels, visit the news section on the Marian 

College website. 

Olivia, Emilie, Janine and Holly 

Altenburg-Carey with Bishop Paul 

Martin SM. 

REMARKABLE RESULTS 

The Marian College literacy programme 

– known as The Writing Group – is 

producing remarkable results and helping 

to bridge the gaps for some junior students. 

“I think a lot of the students are finding the 

one-on-one time really beneficial and we 

are seeing the results. As well as measuring 

progress, for us it’s been about bridging the 

gap for these students, so they are better 

placed to catch up and be closer to the level 

they should be at,” explains teacher Ellie 

Caradus who heads The Writing Group. 

Marian College Principal Mary-Lou 

Davidson is impressed with the writing 

group’s progress. 

BIG SMILES NO MATTER THE CONDITIONS! 

Our sports teams are living examples 

of our school values of courage, 

perseverance and commitment. Well 

done to all our teams, coaches and parent 

supporters who travelled to compete in the 

Secondary Schools Winter Tournament this 

month. Go Marian! 

There really is no 

substitute for dedicated teachers 

working closely with students. 

The progress we are seeing is a 

result of positive relationships 

between skilled Marian staff, 

and students who feel supported. 

Mary-Lou Davidson 

Marian College teacher Ellie 

Caradus heads The Writing Group. 

Marian College is part of the Catholic 

Community of Learning Kāhui Ako, where 

schools support each other to lift student 

achievement. The schools target agreed 

focus areas, such as literacy, which are 

funded and supported by the Kāhui Ako.

Celebrating our Tui 

“The Tui’s sing-songy warble is in the 

distance as I write. Often when 

I’m outside I answer back with a 

somewhat substandard whistle 

to try and make them answer. 

At the edge of the path leading 

down to the bridge is a large 

tree. Most of the year it sits in 

a rather unspectacular manner 

waiting for it’s time in the sun. 

Then, as if from nowhere, it 

bursts into flower. Great clusters 

of colour embellish it’s branches. 

And then they come. The Tui. I once 

counted twenty eight Tui from near and 

far feasting on the nectar with frenzied passion. 

The beauty of the tree and the Tui’s song was 

enchanting. 

Ever watchful on flax fronds or drunk on fresh Kowhai 

nectar, our Tui with their sheeney feathers and white 

bib are captivating; that haunting call to another bird 

travelling through the bush. As a New Zealander, it 

is the sound I most associate with 

home.” Kirsty Nixon 

Kirsty spent her early working 

career in the advertising 

industry pushing her brain to 

explore words and imagery. 

However the artistic pull was 

strong and she chose to become 

a fulltime artist in 1997. 

Although she has explored other 

subjects, she is constantly 

drawn to the New Zealand 

landscape in its various guises. 

Her imagery often brings the native 

bush to the foreground to give the feeling of stepping 

into the scene, the coastline just within reach in the 

background. 

Kirsty lives in Auckland with her husband and two 

children. 

Kirsty exhibition runs from September 29 to 24 

October at Little River Gallery.

From the toes on your feet up to the hair 

on your head you can spoil yourself on our 

Expo Lounges and leave the Expo feeling a 

little more relaxed and pampered. 

with some 

Pampering 

sessions at 

the Expo 

Visit the Vivo Hair Lounge for all things 

hair and with special expo only prices on a 

range of hair and beauty products including 

discounted GHDs you could walk away with 

a few bargains as well. Sit down and have 

your hair curled by the Vivo team for free and make sure you have your photo 

taken in front of the Vivo photo wall so you can enter to win a fabulous makeover 

package. 

Mama Lash will be at the Expo for the first time. Stop by their large Pamper 

Lounge where the team will be offering Expo visitors lash extensions and brow 

treatments onsite. If you have always wanted long, thick and full eyelashes then 

chat to the team onsite and discover the easy way to achieve fabulous looking 

eyes that will make you stand out in a crowd. You can either have your eyebrow 

extensions done at the show or simply watch a demonstration to see how this 

stunning look is achieved. 

After a successful show last year, Sparklewhite Teeth will once more be offering 

teeth whitening treatments at the show. This area was buzzing last year with 

visitors lining up to take advantage of the amazing expo only prices. Sparklewhite 

Teeth have developed a new technology for teeth whitening that works so 

effectively you can lighten your teeth by 2-10 shades in just one 60 minute 

session. Create a positive attitude for yourself and improve your appearance while 

achieving a more youthful look with your new radiant smile. 

Sparklewhite will also have the fascinating Aduro’s LED mask onsite for visitors 

to try out at the show. A re-invention of the traditional facial mask brought up-todate 

through the use of LED light technology Aduro’s patented design follows the 

contours of the face and covers the entire facial area in therapeutic light – offering 

a full facial rejuvenating experience, for range of skin imperfections including acne 

and signs of aging. 

Before you leave the Expo take your tired feet over to the Southern Reflexology 

Group Lounge and treat yourself to a relaxing reflexology treatment. 

The ancient Chinese practice of reflexology, a manual therapy focusing on the 

feet, has recently enjoyed a surge in popularity as a modern holistic therapy to 

relieve pain and stress. Reflexologists believe that different areas on your feet and 

hands correspond to other parts of your body, and massaging them stimulates 

your parasympathetic nervous system to heal itself. Reflexology can help to create 

a healthy harmonious state within the body and triggers the body’s natural powers 

of self-healing. 

Find out more from the Southern Reflexology Group onsite at the Women’s 

Lifestyle Expo.

THE ULTIMATE 

WEEKEND FOR 

WOMEN IS 

BACK! 

The Expo is a perfect place to meet for a girl’s day out but it’s also a great 

place to escape and have some well-deserved “me time” if you would 

rather browse the sites by yourself at your own pace. With so much going 

on and with Door sales only $10 there is every reason to visit and none to 

stay at home! 

Renee Murray from NZME Events says “Our aim is to have as wide of a 

range of companies involved with the Expo as possible. Women are all 

different and their individual interests are so diverse. One woman may 

be interested in gourmet food but the woman beside her may be more 

interested in organic skincare or booking a V8 Supercar drive. We have 

artisan crafters like jeweller Debra Fallowfield exhibiting alongside national 

brands like Vivo Hair and Suzuki. It’s great on the weekend to see all the 

various women visit the show, from teenagers to business women, mothers 

to grandmothers and friends simply enjoying each other’s company”. 

CleanPaleo launching new product at the Expo 

CleanPaleo is a NZ company dedicated to creating great tasting, clean, 

whole food products that let your body know that ‘You Mean Business’ when 

it comes to looking after yourself. The Expo will give visitors a chance to

because they genuinely are a healthy snacking option – less than 20% sugar 

and they taste amazing! Make sure you stop by the CleanPaleo site in the 

Expo Taste Zone where you can also chat with reality TV couple and health 

gurus Art Green and Matilda Rice. 

Since appearing on The Bachelor NZ, Art and Matilda have both become 

proponents of healthier eating with Art extending his interest in healthier 

living into a business venture, part-owning Riot Foods, which consists of 

sub-brands Clean Paleo and Poppy and Olive which you can both discover 

at the Women’s Lifestyle Expo. 

The popular Craft Zone will include artisan crafters from all over New 

Zealand with gorgeous original products often not found in shops including 

kitchen herb planters, soaps & beauty products, original art, home decor, 

handmade jewellery, beeswax wraps and more. 

For a ‘tasteful’ experience like no other, head to the ‘Taste Zone’ where you 

can experience, try, and buy a range of fantastic products, so why not treat 

yourself? From wine to paleo food, meat rubs & spices and even french 

terrines, parfaits and pates you can tantalise your taste buds with a tasty 

treat from the Expo Taste Zone.
