Kid Fishing day at The Groynes, which<br />
is set to go ahead this year as planned.<br />
the event was at risk of being<br />
postponed due to chemicals in<br />
the lakes – but the city council<br />
has given the all clear.<br />
“Weed control has been completed<br />
for now, and it is likely<br />
that we will need to do some<br />
necessary follow up later in the<br />
year,” city council head ranger<br />

Hewson said.<br />

Consent<br />
granted<br />
to build<br />
Pak’nSave<br />
in Papanui<br />
• By Ashleigh Monk<br />
RESOURCE CONSENT has been<br />
granted for a Pak’nSave to be built<br />
near the intersection of Main<br />
North and Northcote Rds.<br />
Building is expected to start at<br />
171 Main North Rd in the next<br />
few months, and will take up to<br />
12-18 months to complete.<br />
The proposed Northcote Entertainment<br />
Sports Terminal was<br />
set to be built at the site but the<br />
supermarket will go there instead.<br />
Foodstuffs head of external relations<br />
Antoinette Laird said the<br />
site was chosen because Papanui<br />
is an “up-and-coming” area.<br />
“The Main North Rd site will<br />
service a growing and exciting<br />
community,” she said.<br />
“We’re pretty sure the new<br />
Pak’nSave will be a real asset to<br />
the community.”<br />
A Pak’nSave branded petrol<br />
station will also be built on the<br />
site.<br />
Said Ms Laird: “There are many<br />
factors to take into account when<br />
developing a project of this scale.<br />
With every new store we look<br />
to incorporate features which<br />
celebrate the area in terms of look<br />
and feel.”<br />

Green light for bus priority project<br />
• By Ashleigh Monk<br />
THE CONTROVERSIAL Main<br />
North Rd bus priority project<br />
has been approved by the city<br />
council.<br />
The $1.8 million project was<br />
approved on Thursday. It will<br />
see 24-hour bus and bike lanes<br />
put in along Main North Rd,<br />
except for a stretch from Harewood<br />
Rd to<br />
Winston Ave.<br />
Papanui-<br />
Innes Community<br />
Board<br />
member John<br />
Stringer said<br />
he was “disappointed”<br />
by the<br />
John<br />
Stringer<br />
city council’s<br />
decision.<br />
“The rights of<br />
faster bus and bike commuting<br />
through our community to save<br />
40sec to a few minutes has been<br />
ideologically elevated above the<br />
practical local needs of Papanui<br />
people,” he said.<br />
“Our village is being transformed<br />
from a local shopping<br />
precinct into a rapid-transit<br />
commuter corridor. Inevitably<br />
there will be pedestrian accidents<br />
as a result.”<br />
He said the area has a high<br />

and the change would affect<br />
elderly residents.<br />
“They will no longer be able to<br />
cross a much busier Main North<br />
Rd safely with three to five lanes<br />
of north-south traffic.”<br />
But community board member<br />
Mike Davidson said the decision<br />
struck the right balance<br />
for road users and businesses.<br />
“This decision has been a long<br />
time in the making and I know<br />
it is never easy to bring in new<br />
transport projects that are not<br />
used by the majority of people<br />
but still extremely important for<br />
the city,” Mr Davidson said.<br />

“We know that with expected<br />
growth, this is critical to ensure<br />
an effective transport network<br />
and this is achieved partly by<br />
building the right infrastructure<br />
to encourage uptake.”<br />
Papanui Super Liquor owner<br />
Carolyn Moffat said she was<br />
“thrilled” with the decision.<br />
“The efforts of the community<br />
board have been outstanding.<br />
They took the time to listen<br />
and work through the issues we<br />
had, and came up with a compromise<br />
which suits businesses,<br />
local shoppers and commuters.”<br />

by the city<br />
council.<br />
Crystal People on Main North<br />
Rd, said the decision was “bittersweet”.<br />
“I suppose it was a good<br />
outcome on the day – but it’s<br />
still the lesser of two evils,” he<br />
said.<br />
“My problem is that there<br />
is a distinct lack of evidence<br />
that these bus lanes will actually<br />
work . . . The (city council)<br />
don’t know whether the project<br />
will reach a good outcome,<br />
or whether it’s just going to<br />
be another $1.8 million that’s<br />
wasted.”<br />

In Brief<br />
Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
BELFAST BRIDGE<br />
One-lane traffic has opened on<br />
the new Belfast Rd bridge. Road<br />
users were able to use the bridge<br />
for first time yesterday, and the<br />
Christchurch Northern Corridor<br />
Alliance team expect to have<br />
both lanes open on November 3.<br />
The remaining work is weather<br />
dependent, and a 30km/h speed<br />
limit will remain in place until the<br />
bridge has been completed.<br />
PLUNKET ROOM WORK<br />
Work has re-started on the<br />
Redwood Plunket rooms, which<br />
are being repaired following<br />
earthquake damage. Significant<br />
cracking on the walls and ceiling<br />
will be fixed before the building<br />
is opened again. The project<br />
is expected to be completed<br />
this month but was originally<br />
scheduled to be finished in June. It<br />
was delayed due to the discovery of<br />
black mould, which increased the<br />
cost of the project by $25,000.<br />
SPEED LIMIT STAYS<br />
The speed limit in the Prestons<br />
subdivision will remain at 50km/h.<br />
The Coastal- Burwood and<br />
Papanui-Innes community boards<br />
voted not to lower the speed limit<br />
to 40km/h after the city council<br />
identified that reducing the limit<br />
was appropriate. The existing<br />
school speed zones will remain in<br />
place.<br />

City woman leads young farmers<br />
• By Ashleigh Monk<br />
and Emily O’Connell<br />
A ST Albans woman has become<br />
the first female chief executive of<br />
New Zealand Young Farmers.<br />
Tech-savvy businesswoman<br />
Lynda Coppersmith, 48, took up<br />
the position on <strong>October</strong> 1 and said<br />
her first week was “very busy.”<br />
“I’ve been learning a lot – I’m<br />
at brain-saturation point I think,<br />
but it’s been great to talk to<br />
everybody and understand the<br />
business.”<br />
Ms Coppersmith said she had<br />
been out of the primary industries<br />
for more than six years, and<br />
was pleased to be back.<br />
“I really enjoyed my time<br />
when I worked in the industry.<br />
It’s something that’s in your<br />
blood, and you get quite passionate<br />
about it,” she said.<br />
“Having grown a few leadership<br />
skills in the meantime, I<br />
thought this looked like a great<br />
opportunity to get back into the<br />
industry.”<br />
She said she was “chuffed” to<br />
be the first woman to hold the<br />
chief executive position at NZ<br />
Young Farmers.<br />
“I think every time we see<br />
more diversity and women<br />
getting more senior roles in organisations,<br />
it’s a win. It brings a<br />
different perspective to what we<br />
do, and I think that’s great.”<br />
She was looking forward to<br />
visiting clubs and drumming<br />
up interest in farming for young<br />
people.<br />
“I’m keen to understand<br />
who young farmers are, what’s<br />
important to them, what they’re<br />
worried about, what they’re<br />
excited about and that kind of<br />
thing,” she said.<br />
“I think that’s a really important<br />
role that we play, and I can<br />
see there are opportunities to<br />
grow that further, to look at filling<br />
that gap and meet the target<br />
of getting an extra 50,000 people<br />
into the industry.”<br />

With the deadline for Youth<br />
MP applications closing, I’ve<br />
been getting out to our schools to<br />
talk to students about why they<br />
should apply. As local MP, I enjoy<br />
engaging with our young people.<br />
Before becoming a Member of<br />
Parliament, I worked in healthcare,<br />
specifically mental health, but<br />
always knew I would move into<br />
politics as a way of giving back<br />
and making a difference in the<br />
community, and I am enjoying<br />
encouraging our young people to<br />
be a voice for the Waimakariri.<br />
Students at the University of<br />
Canterbury invited me recently<br />
to be a part of a robust debate<br />
on mental health. I was thrilled to<br />
see the involvement of so many<br />
people in talking about the issues<br />
challenging us, and I updated<br />
students on my work writing to MPs<br />
to back my proposal for a crossparty<br />
group to focus on mentalhealth<br />
outcomes independent of<br />
the Parliamentary cycle.<br />
I enjoyed bringing National’s<br />
Spokesperson for Trade, Todd<br />
McClay, to visit some of our<br />
Northern Christchurch businesses,<br />
many of which are exporting<br />
globally. I enjoy showcasing what<br />
we do well and giving people<br />
the opportunity to sit down with<br />
relevant policy makers to discuss<br />
what they need to continue moving<br />
forward, whether they are business<br />
owners or community members<br />
who want their voices heard.<br />
Last month we celebrated an<br />
important anniversary. 125 years<br />
ago we led the world when our<br />
women won the right to vote and it<br />
was a good time to acknowledge<br />
the hard work of our women MPs<br />
who continue in this proud tradition.<br />
I’m hearing from constituents<br />
they are concerned about the<br />
culling of 17,500 Tahr, which is<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
Problem trees in dispute<br />
• By Ashleigh Monk<br />
HAREWOOD RESIDENTS are<br />
struggling with troublesome oak<br />
trees while the city council is<br />
unsure whose responsibility it is<br />
to pay for their removal.<br />
Graeme and Diane Barber have<br />
lived in their Cam Pl home since<br />
1983 – but<br />
shortly after<br />
they moved in,<br />
six oak trees<br />
were planted<br />
in Pasadena<br />
Reserve, which<br />
have now<br />
grown to 16m<br />
Sam<br />
MacDonald<br />
and block their<br />
sun.<br />
In the<br />
original plans, a road was<br />
supposed to run through the<br />
reserve and this led to confusion<br />
over whether the oaks are<br />
deemed street trees or reserve<br />
trees.<br />
If they are reserve trees, the<br />
city council would be responsible<br />
for the cost of removing them,<br />
but if they are street trees it<br />
would be up to residents to pay.<br />
Fendalton-Waimairi-<br />
Harewood Community Board<br />
chairman Sam MacDonald said<br />
the board has requested city<br />
council staff investigate the issue.<br />
“Normally these things can<br />
TOWERING TREES: Harewood resident Graeme Barber is fed<br />
up with the 16m oak trees near his home dropping debris and<br />
shading his property.<br />
be turned around in a week, but<br />
because of the technical nature<br />
of this, I just wanted to paint the<br />
full picture, so it’ll take about six<br />
weeks.”<br />
“It’s on a bit of disputed land,<br />
and we’re just trying to get some<br />
clarity around what the process<br />
is and how we manage that,” he<br />
said.<br />
Mr Barber said he has battled<br />
the city council over the trees for<br />
the last decade.<br />
“They’re in the wrong place<br />
and have grown too large. Why<br />
do the needs and well-being of<br />
people overshadow the needs of a<br />
healthy tree?”<br />
He said the trees could grow<br />
up to 24m – the equivalent of an<br />
eight-story building.<br />
“They wouldn’t build<br />
something that tall next to<br />
people’s houses, so why are they<br />
allowing the trees to be there?”<br />
he said.<br />
He said arborists occasionally<br />
pruned the trees, but it wasn’t<br />
enough.<br />
“Their maintenance cycle is a<br />
lot less than what is needed here.<br />
If you complain, you see a flurry<br />
of activity and then it stops,” he<br />
said.<br />
“They’re the wrong trees in<br />
the wrong place, and they can’t<br />
be fixed unless you take them<br />
down.”<br />
A similar problem has also<br />
arisen in Upper Riccarton. The<br />
residents of Villa Grove wanted<br />
the city council to remove 22 oak<br />
trees, which were 24-years-old<br />
and ranged between 8.1-15.8m<br />
high.<br />
However, the Halswell-<br />
Hornby-Riccarton Community<br />
Board declined to go ahead with<br />
residents’ request to have the<br />
trees removed, and resolved to<br />
continue with maintenance.<br />

“But, most importantly, the<br />
store needs to be environmentally<br />
sensitive, energy efficient and a<br />
pleasant place to shop,” Ms Laird<br />
said.<br />
While Foodstuffs owns the land<br />
the supermarket will be built on,<br />
the store will have an independent<br />
owner/operator.<br />
Construction of the supermarket<br />
will coincide with several other<br />
upgrades in Papanui, including<br />
the city council’s Main North<br />
Rd bus priority project and the<br />
New Zealand Transport Agency’s<br />
Northern Corridor project.<br />
There are five Pak’nSave supermarkets<br />
in Christchurch, including<br />
one in Papanui at Northlands<br />
Shopping Centre.<br />

CITY COUNCILLOR Aaron<br />
Keown could finally see<br />
traffic lights installed at a<br />
Bishopdale intersection as public<br />
consultation on the project gets<br />
the green light.<br />
The city council voted on<br />
Thursday to send options out<br />
for consultation to either install<br />
traffic lights<br />
at the Breens,<br />
Harewood and<br />
Gardiners Rds<br />
intersection,<br />
or to introduce<br />
a signalised<br />
crossing to<br />
Aaron Keown<br />
Harewood Rd<br />
and reduce it to<br />
one lane.<br />
Cr Keown has been campaigning<br />
to have lights installed at the<br />
Breens, Harewood and Gardiners<br />
Rds intersection for two-anda-half<br />
years.<br />
“It goes out for consultation<br />
now, but the preferred option for<br />
council is cutting off Harewood<br />
Rd – they’re basically just going<br />
to try and talk people out of<br />
choosing the traffic lights.”<br />
He said he felt confident that<br />
the majority of submissions<br />
would be in favour of the traffic<br />
lights, but he expected the<br />
city council to try and slow the<br />
process.<br />
“The problem is it won’t just<br />
go to the community board and<br />
then to council, as is the normal<br />
process. It will also have to go<br />
to the Infrastructure, Transport<br />
and Environment Committee.<br />
It’s just another chance for the<br />
council to block it.”<br />
While the majority of city<br />
councillors voted for the proposal,<br />
Cr Keown said he was<br />
“disappointed” that councillors<br />
Tim Scandrett, Pauline Cotter<br />
and Phil Clearwater were against<br />
it.<br />
“That’s how dirty politics operates,<br />
sometimes you just can’t get<br />
wins with certain people.”<br />
He said the opposed councillors<br />
focused on the lack of available<br />
funding for traffic lights, but<br />
he was sure the money could be<br />
found in the Annual Plan.<br />
“I think people will come forward<br />
and say ‘don’t spend money<br />
on stupid statues or a park or a<br />
swimming pool, we want it spent<br />
on traffic lights’,” he said.<br />
“To be honest, with the cost<br />
of the council blocking this<br />
project we would have probably<br />
already paid for the traffic lights.<br />
Christchurch ratepayers are being<br />
ripped off by staff tactics and<br />
GREEN<br />
LIGHT: Public<br />
consultation on<br />
the controversial<br />
Breens,<br />
Harewood and<br />
Gardiners Rds<br />
intersection has<br />

an inefficient council”<br />
Fendalton-Waimairi-<br />
Harewood Community<br />
Board chairman Sam<br />
MacDonald said he hoped the<br />
city council would listen to what<br />
the public wanted.<br />
“The council now have bought<br />
into the process of letting the<br />
public tell them what they want<br />
at this intersection, so for them<br />
at the end of this to block it<br />
would be completely unacceptable,”<br />
he said.<br />
“From the meeting on<br />
Thursday there’s a green light<br />
that this intersection is going to<br />
be fixed.”<br />

Bus changes: Striking the right balance<br />
Papanui-Innes Community<br />
Board members Mike<br />
Davidson and Emma<br />
Norrish write about the<br />
proposed Main North Rd<br />
bus priority project<br />
THE PAPANUI-Innes<br />
Community Board recently made<br />
recommendations to the city<br />
council on the Main North Rd<br />
bus priority project.<br />
As Papanui Ward<br />
representatives on the board, it<br />
was important for us that this<br />
project struck the right balance<br />
between the local community<br />
(both residential and business)<br />
and bus users.<br />
This is a busy public transport<br />
corridor and 80 per cent of the<br />
bus passengers are Christchurch<br />
residents.<br />
The recent proposal to cut<br />
community bus routes in<br />
our ward by Environment<br />
Canterbury, and the resulting<br />
outcry from the community,<br />
showed the importance people<br />
put on the Christchurch bus<br />
service. But unfortunately bus<br />
patronage is low and this needs<br />
to improve to ensure that this<br />
does not happen again.<br />
One way to increase patronage<br />
is to improve journey time<br />
reliability, which was the aim of<br />
TRANSPORT PLAN: Papanui-Innes Community Board members Mike Davidson and Emma<br />
Norrish share their thoughts on the Main North Rd bus priority project.<br />
this project. Unfortunately, there<br />
have been a number of comments<br />
made publicly that have been<br />
incorrect and it is important to<br />
set the record straight.<br />
The project was estimated to<br />
create journey time savings of<br />
between 3min 20sec and 4min<br />
20sec between Harewood Rd and<br />
Sawyers Arms Rd.<br />
An amendment moved and<br />
seconded by the two of us<br />
recommends to the city council<br />
that the north-bound bus lane<br />
starts at Winston Ave.<br />
This amendment will mean<br />
nine car parks are retained. It<br />
does reduce the journey time<br />
savings by 40sec, but we believe<br />
this was a good compromise.<br />
The north-bound bus lane, if<br />
approved, will now extend from<br />
Winston Ave to Grassmere St<br />
with a reduction of only seven<br />
car parks.<br />
The main change on the south<br />
side between Grassmere St and<br />
Horner St was the removal<br />
of six car parks to extend the<br />
length of the current bus stop.<br />
This decision was approved<br />
unanimously by the board.<br />
There have been comments<br />
made that only four car parks<br />
would be left; this is incorrect –<br />
the actual amount of car parks<br />
retained will be eight.<br />
It is fair to say the consultation<br />
results were mixed, with people<br />
supporting, or supporting with<br />
concerns, or against.<br />
What came through very<br />
clearly from the consultation<br />
though, were two clear issues:<br />
The car parking between<br />
Harewood Rd and Winston<br />
Ave, and the Grassmere St<br />
intersection.<br />
The project team made<br />
significant changes to this<br />
intersection following the<br />
consultation, which resulted<br />
in the intersection becoming<br />
signalised and retaining all<br />
turning movements. The board<br />
unanimously accepted this<br />
outcome.<br />
With the inclusion of the<br />
amendment the board passed the<br />
Main North Rd Bus Lane Priority<br />
project 5-1.<br />
This outcome sends a clear<br />
message that although we<br />
support the need for good public<br />
transport infrastructure, we<br />
listen to what our community<br />
tells us. Our community is made<br />
up of people who both supported<br />
and opposed this project, and<br />
we were never going to please<br />
everyone, but we believe the best<br />
recommendation has been made<br />
to the city council.<br />

History of making money in Papanui<br />
Papanui Heritage group<br />
chairman Murray Williams<br />
writes about the ups<br />
and downs of the area’s<br />
economy<br />
PAPANUI IS a settlement that<br />
owes its origin to the native<br />
bush that was located in the area<br />
between modern day Vagues and<br />
Langdons Rds.<br />
However, this relatively small<br />
forested area was exhausted<br />
by 1857 due to the insatiable<br />
demand for construction timber<br />
and firewood of the settlers in<br />
nearby Christchurch.<br />
The Papanui population then<br />
stagnated but the local economy<br />
eventually recovered as it was<br />
realised that, if the swampy cut<br />
over land was drained, there<br />
was a possibility for a brighter<br />
future based on agriculture and<br />
horticulture.<br />
In the 1860s, Francis Sisson<br />
built up significant land holdings<br />
and a flourishing orchard<br />
business, and effectively founded<br />
a horticultural dynasty in the<br />
MORE THAN $76,000 has been<br />
earmarked for the rejuvenation of<br />
an 1899 St Albans villa.<br />
Up to $76,342 will be spent on<br />
the villa in Ranfurly St.<br />
Built by the Soanes brothers,<br />
Henry and Philip,<br />
to showcase<br />
their design and<br />
building skills,<br />
the double brick<br />
return bay villa<br />
retains much of<br />
Phil<br />
Clearwater<br />
the original form<br />
and character.<br />
The city<br />
council’s social,<br />
community development and<br />
housing committee has approved<br />
grants for a range of other<br />
projects in the city ranging from<br />
$5136 to nearly $90,000.<br />
The proposed grants will cover<br />
maintenance and repairs, along<br />
Papanui area.<br />
Nola Murfitt (née Sisson),<br />
Francis Sisson’s great-granddaughter,<br />
has vivid memories of<br />
living and working on a family<br />
owned orchard in the 1930s and<br />
with upgrade and conservation<br />
work.<br />

Clearwater said heritage<br />

RENEW: More than $76,000 has been earmarked to restore an<br />
1899 St Albans villa to its former glory.<br />
“our place and our identity”.<br />
“It’s important to set a<br />
framework for their retention<br />
so that we continue to link the<br />
present with the past.”<br />

1940s.<br />
Her father Clovis Sisson owned<br />
a 16 acre (6.5ha) block of land<br />
in Harewood Rd, the frontage<br />
running between what is now<br />
Wilmot St and the lot now occupied<br />
by Palmer Funeral Services.<br />
Their holding extended back to<br />
Langdons Rd<br />
The business almost foundered<br />
during the depression. Nola<br />
recalled that on some occasions<br />
apples were dumped, although<br />
the main problem was the high<br />
level of debt taken on to acquire<br />
the property in more prosperous<br />
times in the 1920s.<br />
However, even in the depths<br />
of depression, the demand for<br />
black currants remained strong<br />
and Nola’s job, even as an 11<br />
and 12-year-old, was to organise<br />
groups of children in harvesting<br />
this crop.<br />

THE DRAFT plan for the future<br />
of the red zone is expected to be<br />
made public before the end of<br />
the year.<br />
In its quarterly report, Regenerate<br />
Christchurch revealed the<br />
draft Otakaro Avon River Corridor<br />
Regeneration Plan would be<br />
made public by late-December.<br />
“Regenerate Christchurch advises<br />
the draft Regeneration Plan<br />
is forecast to be publicly notified<br />
between mid-November and<br />
late-December,” the report said.<br />
Once released and public<br />
feedback gathered, the draft plan<br />
will then be approved by Minister<br />
for Greater Christchurch<br />
Regeneration Megan Woods<br />
before it is finalised.<br />
It comes after The Star<br />
revealed Regenerate had spent<br />
nearly $500,000 on the exhibition<br />
used to gather public<br />
demand for apples during the<br />
war years, profitability remained<br />
marginal due to the need to keep<br />
up the steep mortgage payments.<br />
Eventually a Government offer<br />
to buy the land for state housing<br />
was gratefully accepted.<br />
In 1949, Nola shifted to Rangiora<br />
as a consequence of her<br />
marriage to Frank Murfitt, a race<br />
horse trainer based in that area.<br />
The couple had a family of four<br />
daughters and, after the death<br />
of her husband, Nola returned<br />
to her roots in Papanui and is<br />
currently a resident at a local<br />
retirement home.<br />
Nola still retains vivid memories<br />
of her life on the orchard and<br />
fondly remembers her school<br />
experiences and the making of<br />
enduring friendships at Waimairi<br />
School and Papanui Technical<br />
College.<br />
She also recalls summer holidays<br />
when the family would load<br />
their picnic lunches (and several<br />
barrels of beer) on to a truck and<br />
head for Stewarts Gully for a big<br />
day out.<br />
Plan for red zone<br />
feedback which will develop the<br />
draft plan.<br />
“There are always costs involved<br />
with public engagement<br />
but, given the scale and longterm<br />
significance of our work,<br />
we believe this investment is<br />
important to ensure our work is<br />
informed by the views and aspirations<br />
of the community,” chief<br />
executive Ivan Iafeta said.<br />
He said the five-week<br />
exhibition and engagement was<br />
one of the “most significant”<br />
public engagements since the<br />
earthquakes.<br />
It is estimated developing the<br />
red zone would cost $800 million<br />
over 30 years.<br />
That includes $153 million for<br />
the 11km green spine, which<br />
emerged as the favourite option<br />
from the exhibition. The red<br />
zone is expected to bring billions<br />
of dollars in to the economy.<br />

Trying out artistic skills<br />
RICHMOND’S ELLA Warren<br />
(right) thought the Christchurch<br />
Art Gallery was a pretty cool<br />
place to be during the school<br />
holidays.<br />
And that’s because the St<br />
Albans Catholic Primary School<br />
pupil wanted to paint some masterpieces<br />
of her own.<br />
From now until Sunday –<br />
along with Labour Day weekend<br />
– anyone can go into the space<br />
and pick up a paintbrush to help<br />
create a massive piece of public<br />
art on the Art Gallery’s walls.<br />
Titled Wall to Wall, the event<br />
presents the opportunity to be<br />
involved in a “colossal public<br />
paint-out” of one of the downstairs<br />
galleries.<br />
“This is where the art starts,”<br />
acting Art Gallery director Amy<br />
Harrington said.<br />
Ms Harrington said the next<br />
famous work that would be<br />
hanging in the art gallery in 20<br />
years could be done by some of<br />
the young artists decorating the<br />
walls today.<br />
The art gallery was painting<br />
over the four walls every day to<br />
make space for new creations.<br />
“So everyone gets their chance<br />
to paint,” she said.<br />
The space was proving so<br />
popular, Ms Harrington said<br />
there are lines out the door most<br />
mornings.<br />
The exhibition is open from<br />
11am to 4pm every day.<br />
“We are encouraging everyone<br />
to grab a brush and bring your<br />
perspective to this special art<br />
space,” Ms Harrington said.<br />
“We aim to create an immersive<br />
gallery where everyone – no<br />
matter your age – can take a collaborative<br />
approach to art.”<br />
The work comes in conjunction<br />
with the opening of SCAPE<br />
Public Art’s 20th anniversary<br />
season, which opened on Friday<br />
and will run for six weeks.<br />
The trust has installed 216<br />
temporary artworks and 14<br />
permanent artworks in the city,<br />
since its formation in 1998.<br />
Some of the most notable<br />
works include Nucleus by<br />
Phil Price on the corner of<br />
Manchester, High and Lichfield<br />
Sts, Fanfare by Neil Dawson at<br />
Chaneys Corner and Passing<br />
Time by Anton Parsons on<br />
Madras St.<br />
Children had fun with craft<br />

Now<br />
Age is no barrier to city cycling<br />
Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
EACH DAY in Christchurch<br />
thousands of people use bicycles<br />
for their commute, for fitness,<br />
or just for fun. An increasing<br />
number of those people are of<br />
advancing years.<br />
St Albans retiree Jean Bell<br />
returned to cycling last year after<br />
a long period without a bike. “I<br />
was encouraged to try an e-bike,<br />
and I was soon hooked on it,”<br />
she said.<br />
“It’s just so handy,” Jean explained.<br />
“I’m surprised by how far I can<br />
cycle when in the car the same<br />
distance feels like a long way.’’<br />
Visiting friends, attending<br />
meetings, hairdresser and doctor<br />
appointments – Jean travels to<br />
them all by bike.<br />
“It’s much easier to park my<br />
bike than park the car,” she said.<br />
“Now, driving with just one<br />
person in my car feels decadent;<br />
a bit naughty.”<br />
The city’s geography<br />
lends itself to getting around by<br />
bike.<br />
“Unlike Wellington or Auckland,<br />
in Christchurch you have<br />
a choice – cycle on the flat or<br />
test yourself on the Port Hills,”<br />
explains Julie Milne, who recently<br />
cycled the length of New<br />
Zealand to raise awareness of<br />
stroke sufferers.<br />
Julie rides to work year-round<br />
on her modified bicycle; two<br />
childhood strokes left her with<br />
restricted arm movement.<br />
“Cycling is my physical upkeep,”<br />
she said.<br />
“It improves my quality of getting<br />
older. If I don’t bike, I seize<br />
up, which then means I can’t<br />
bike. So, I keep biking.”<br />
Julie will be sharing her experiences<br />
at the NZ Bike Expo<br />
(Saturday and Sunday).<br />
This cornerstone event of<br />
the Biketober festival is where<br />
cyclists of all ages can gather to<br />
celebrate the cycle.<br />
“The expo brings the cycling<br />
industry and the Christchurch<br />
community together,” said event<br />
organiser Krissy O’Connor.<br />
“It places cycling events, test<br />
rides, and community groups<br />
alongside commercial exhibitors.<br />
It’s a very hands-on weekend of<br />
everything bike-related.”<br />
For Christchurch residents<br />
who perhaps haven’t explored<br />
much of the new-look central<br />
city, Saturday’s Pedal into Spring<br />
extravaganza of Biketober offers<br />
twelve themed, self-guided rides<br />
to choose from. Cafés, shops,<br />
playgrounds, art, a family treasure<br />
hunt – there’s a route for all ages.<br />
“If you haven’t been on a bike<br />
for a while,” says Julie Milne,<br />
“start on a cycleway and go from<br />
there. You’re safe. Cycling is<br />
lovely.”<br />

The 51st edition of the<br />
championships drew 601 riders<br />
from 100 schools over the threeday<br />
competition, which finished<br />
last Monday. As well as the team<br />

confident we could do well. The<br />
guys have given it everything in<br />
their last few training sessions,”<br />
he said.<br />

the chance to meet some<br />
Canterbury rugby players.<br />
Chris King, Phil Burleigh<br />

The players greeted the pupils<br />
for a chat and answered their<br />

through some training drills<br />
and having a game. Burleigh<br />
said it was nice to spend time<br />
with the young fans.<br />
“It was great to meet the<br />
next generation of enthusiastic<br />
young rugby players, to run<br />
through some skills training<br />
with them, and answer<br />
questions they have about what<br />
we do,” Burleigh said.<br />
“This group was really<br />
engaged and keen to learn, so<br />
we enjoyed taking the time out<br />
to connect with them. I hope<br />
the knowledge we passed<br />
on will help them get the<br />
most out of their rugby in the<br />
future.”<br />
The players put the boys<br />
through some training drills,<br />
finishing with a mock game in<br />
which three boys were each put<br />

cyclists claim national titles<br />
Papanui rider<br />
wins his<br />
age group<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
RYAN MACLEOD pedalled past<br />
his rivals to win the under-16<br />
boys title at the national road<br />
cycling championships at Loburn<br />
last week.<br />
The talented 15-year-old<br />
from Papanui High School made<br />
four attack attempts before<br />
finally securing the break he<br />
needed to go on and win the<br />
event.<br />
“It didn’t bother me that I<br />
came back to the<br />
pack so often,” he<br />
said.<br />
“The first time<br />
I just wanted to<br />
see what would<br />
happen and who<br />
Ryan<br />
Macleod<br />
would come with<br />
me if I made a<br />
break.”<br />
His time of<br />
52min 53sec was more than 1sec<br />
clear of Westlake Boys’ High<br />
School’s Marcus Bycroft.<br />
“I’d ridden the track a few<br />
times in the week before the race<br />
just to see where the best places<br />
to attack were and it worked out,”<br />
he said. Ryan said his plan for<br />

the race played out perfectly. He<br />
splits his time between mountain<br />
biking, the track and road<br />
cycling.<br />
He will compete at the<br />
South Island mountain bike<br />
championships in Dunedin,<br />
which start on Friday, before<br />
embarking on his summer<br />
track campaign based at Denton<br />
Park.<br />
Ryan’s coach Hamish Ferguson<br />
described him as “an incredibly<br />
motivated kid”.<br />
Ryan has won medals on<br />
the track for Canterbury and<br />
continues to excel across the<br />
three disciplines.<br />
“We took Ryan away to track<br />
nationals last year as a bit of<br />
development experiment, and<br />
he did so well that he ended up<br />
being in the Canterbury A team<br />
pursuit and winning golf there,”<br />
Ferguson said.<br />
“For someone who only<br />
took up track cycling last year,<br />
he’s produced some great<br />
results,”<br />
Ryan said he loved all three<br />
disciplines but one day would<br />
like to race professionally<br />
overseas and compete on some of<br />
the big European tours.<br />
Rangi student comes out<br />
on top of under-16 event<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
RANGI RURU cyclist Charlotte<br />
Spurway’s one-time weakness<br />
has turned into a national titlewinning<br />
strength.<br />
The 15-year-old, who lives in<br />
Fendalton, won the under-16<br />
girls title at the national road<br />
cycling championships.<br />
She has competed in<br />
triathlons regularly but when<br />
she was out injured two years<br />
ago her focus changed.<br />
“Out of the swim, bike and<br />
run the bike was always my<br />
weakest area, but when I was<br />
injured, that was the only thing<br />
I could do regularly.”<br />
Charlotte said she was thrilled<br />
to claim her first national title in<br />
a sprint finish.<br />
She won in a time of 1hr 21sec<br />
with a sprint finish at the end of<br />
the 35km race.<br />
“I’d had a few training rides<br />
on it leading up to the race and<br />
because it was so flat, I knew<br />
that creating a breakaway<br />
would be tough so I just gave it<br />
everything I had in that final<br />
sprint.”<br />
Charlotte went away with the<br />
New Zealand under-17 road<br />
team to Adelaide in April for<br />
the Australian nationals in a<br />

development capacity. She said<br />
it was something she hopes to<br />
do again next year.<br />
She also hopes to continue<br />
competing in triathlons over<br />
summer, as well as take a more<br />
active role in track cycling.<br />
“I think the road cycling has<br />
started to gain more of my focus<br />
though,” she said.<br />
“I don’t have any big goals, I<br />
just want to see how far I can<br />
go.”
