65-year-old<br />

pulled out<br />

of burning<br />

home by<br />

neighbour<br />

• By Sophie Cornish<br />

A SYDENHAM woman has<br />

spoken about how she battled<br />

“unbearable heat” when pulling<br />

a 65-year-old neighbour from his<br />

burning home.<br />

It was just after 9am on September<br />

29 when Bernadine Worsdale<br />

looked out of her window to see<br />

smoke billowing from the property<br />

next door. She sprinted outside<br />

in her pyjamas and saw another<br />

neighbour running towards her,<br />

who phoned 111.<br />

“I was focusing on my neighbour<br />

and thinking get him out,”<br />

said Mrs Worsdale.<br />

Mrs Worsdale ran to the front<br />

window of the burning house on<br />

Scott St.<br />

She pulled it ajar before yelling<br />

for her neighbour, who she didn’t<br />

wish to name.<br />

“I think he was sleeping, if I<br />

hadn’t of known his name, he may<br />

have not woken up and responded<br />

. . . it was so intense, I hate fire, the<br />

heat was unbearable.”<br />

He appeared a bit “dazed and<br />

confused,” said Mrs Worsdale<br />

who then helped to pull him out<br />

of the window.<br />

“I tried to get him to jump but<br />

he couldn’t. I pulled him from<br />

under the armpits and dragged<br />

him out of the window.”<br />

A TOP job by Bernadine Worsdale to<br />

probably save a chap’s life (see page 1).<br />

Bernadine battled unbearable heat to<br />

alert her dozing neighbour that his house<br />

was on fire.<br />

People react differently in times of crisis or emergency. Some<br />

will freeze; others will react like Bernadine did. It all depends<br />

on how we are wired.<br />

So for Bernadine’s neighbour, he is very lucky she was wired<br />

to act. In spite of the heat, she prised open a window and yelled<br />

at him.<br />

“I think he was sleeping, if I hadn’t of known his name, he<br />

may have not woken up and responded . . . it was so intense, I<br />

hate fire, the heat was unbearable.”<br />

Good stuff Bernadine.<br />

CCTV sites under consideration<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

WHILE THEIR installation<br />

is still subject to funding,<br />

sites for the proposed Sumner<br />

crime cameras are now being<br />

considered by the city council.<br />

Christchurch<br />

Transport<br />

Operations<br />

Centre team<br />

leader Ray<br />

Young said a<br />

decision was<br />

made to install<br />

Sally Buck<br />

the cameras<br />

“subject to<br />

funding”, after<br />

a September 11 site visit by city<br />

council staff and police.<br />

He said three locations were<br />

being considered – outside the<br />

Sumner Surf Lifesaving Club,<br />

the corner of Marriner St and<br />

the Esplanade and the corner of<br />

Marriner St and Burgess St.<br />

“CCTV cameras for this<br />

purpose are generally fixed<br />

in place due to the cost of<br />

setting up communication and<br />

power requirements,” Mr Young<br />

said.<br />

City council staff were investigating<br />

pricing options to provide<br />

to the Linwood-Central-<br />

Heathcote Community Board.<br />

“The board will make the<br />

final decision on how to proceed,”<br />

Mr Young said.<br />

It was reported last month<br />

that police would not be able<br />

to help fund the cameras, but<br />

a representative had visited<br />

potential sites with the city<br />

council.<br />

The residents had raised<br />

$4000 but needed a further<br />

$16,000.<br />

Because of the lack of police<br />

funding, the group of Sumner<br />

residents seeking the cameras<br />

were planning to approach the<br />

Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board.<br />

Board chairwoman Sally Buck<br />

said she was looking forward to<br />

hearing their case.<br />

“Staff have told me they will<br />

come to a board meeting in<br />

future when they have got the<br />

costs involved.<br />

“We will also be asking the<br />

police if this is the top priority<br />

for a crime camera.” She said<br />

there was a “considerable sum<br />

of money” left in the board’s<br />

discretionary fund that could be<br />

used if funding was approved.<br />

Fellow board member and<br />

Heathcote Ward councillor Sara<br />

Templeton said they would need<br />

to wait for a report and some<br />

“really good information from<br />

police” before deciding to financially<br />

back the cameras or not.<br />

“There are many areas in our<br />

community board area with<br />

issues with break-ins and crime.<br />

WATCH: The<br />

Sumner Surf<br />

Life Saving<br />

Club is being<br />

considered<br />

as a location<br />

for the<br />

proposed<br />

Sumner<br />

crime<br />

cameras. ​<br />

We need to ensure that what we<br />

are doing is going to give the best<br />

outcome for the community asking<br />

us,” Cr Templeton said.<br />

Police metro community<br />

services manager Senior<br />

Sergeant Stephan McDaniel<br />

said having more cameras was a<br />

good thing.<br />

“We’ll support them [Sumner<br />

camera advocates], but when it<br />

comes down to it, the council<br />

doesn’t have bottomless pockets<br />

so they can only do what they<br />

can do.<br />

“When you compare Sumner<br />

with other areas of the city, its<br />

crime rate is not substantial. But<br />

it’s about the community feeling<br />

safe.”<br />

Plants, car<br />

stolen in mini<br />

crime spree<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

CHEEKY THIEVES have taken off<br />

with two distinctive potted plants<br />

from a Sumner hair salon.<br />

Genz Hair Design owner Genna<br />

Holland said four potted plants<br />

were stolen from outside her Nayland<br />

St business on September 24.<br />

Two of which were topiary trees<br />

and more than 1m high.<br />

Ms Holland said was not too<br />

worried about the theft of her plants<br />

as there had been more upsetting<br />

crimes committed that same night.<br />

“Apparently there was a whole lot<br />

of stuff stolen out here that same<br />

night as well as graffiti and a car<br />

stolen,’’ she said.<br />

Police said a burglary was<br />

reported on Menzies St, and a car<br />

was stolen on Nayland St, however,<br />

there were no reports of wilful<br />

damage in the area on that night.<br />

A car was also broken into on<br />

Beachville Rd, Redcliffs.<br />

Police metro community services<br />

manager Senior Sergeant Stephan<br />

McDaniel said he could not comment<br />

whether the number of crimes<br />

reported was unusual.<br />

“It’s usually a low-crime area<br />

though,” he said.<br />

He said police were still<br />

investigating the stolen car.<br />

adrenaline to help her neighbour,<br />

who thanked her profusely.<br />

“It all happened so fast. I am<br />

just so grateful and so pleased he’s<br />

alive . . . I gave him some water,<br />

a blanket and a hug. He was very<br />

confused and shaken up.”<br />

Timeline to resolve District Plan issues<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

A RESOLUTION to the issues<br />

Redcliffs residents are facing<br />

with building or renovating<br />

could possibly be found in time<br />

for Christmas.<br />

Residents’ groups and<br />

community boards had sought<br />

to get an enabling clause added<br />

to the District Plan since 2016.<br />

The lack of which would made it<br />

almost impossible for residents<br />

in Southshore and Redcliffs<br />

to build or renovate on vacant<br />

property.<br />

The city council recently<br />

approved that staff draft a<br />

proposal for Greater Christchurch<br />

Regeneration Minister Megan<br />

Woods to utilise her powers<br />

under section 71 of the Greater<br />

Christchurch Regeneration Act to<br />

add the clause.<br />

Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board member<br />

Darrell Latham said he was<br />

“very pleased” with the<br />

outcome.<br />

“I would like to think this<br />

could happen before Christmas<br />

not after. However, we have to<br />

follow due process.”<br />

City council staff were<br />

requested to present the initial<br />

draft by <strong>October</strong> 23 “at the<br />

latest.”<br />

Following approval of that<br />

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

draft, staff would need to give<br />

strategic partners up to 30 days<br />

to provide feedback before<br />

gaining final approval<br />

for the proposal to<br />

go to Dr Woods for a<br />

final round of public<br />

consultation.<br />

Mayor Lianne Dalziel<br />

said Dr Woods would<br />

only be able to say yes or<br />

no to whatever proposal<br />

came before her.<br />

“We have to make sure<br />

that the wording that<br />

goes in front of the minister is<br />

the wording that will solve the<br />

problem,” Ms Dalziel said.<br />

Darrell<br />

Latham<br />

There was no time frame on<br />

how long Dr Woods would<br />

consult on the proposal, but in<br />

past instances, it had<br />

taken up to four weeks.<br />

However, Ms Dalziel<br />

stressed that it was<br />

“technically” possible<br />

for the clause to be in<br />

the District Plan by<br />

Christmas.<br />

community boards<br />

Fellow board member Darrell<br />

could come back to the city<br />

Ms Dalziel said the process<br />

could only be sped up to a point,<br />

Improvements likely for bus hub<br />

Local<br />

News<br />

Now<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

• By Julia Evans<br />

MORE THAN $1 million has<br />

been earmarked for a bus hub<br />

and safety improvements outside<br />

Eastgate Mall.<br />

The money has been moved<br />

from the balance of funding for<br />

safety improvements from the<br />

Buckleys Rd, Linwood Ave and<br />

Aldwins Rd intersection following<br />

the release of the Linwood-<br />

Eastgate Area<br />

Integrated<br />

Transport<br />

Study.<br />

City councillor<br />

Sara<br />

Templeton said<br />

people heading<br />

Yani<br />

Johanson<br />

through the bus<br />

stop “deserve<br />

better” than<br />

its current state when the plan<br />

was approved during Thursday’s<br />

council meeting.<br />

“For many years we have<br />

heard from the Linwood community<br />

that the bus facilities on<br />

Buckleys Rd are not appropriate.<br />

It is the third busiest suburban<br />

bus interchange in the city.”<br />

However, Peter Jasper told<br />

the city council residents along<br />

the stretch of Buckleys Rd near<br />

the bus stop found accessing to<br />

their properties difficult due to<br />

frequency of buses.<br />

“It would be irresponsible<br />

to spend ratepayer money on<br />

more,” he said.<br />

Mr Jasper said putting in a<br />

de facto bus hub lacked “any<br />

shred of commonsense and<br />

common decency” towards<br />

home owners and residents.<br />

The bus stops in front of<br />

Eastgate cater up to 30 buses<br />

per hour and board up to 1500<br />

passengers per day, rivalling<br />

Northlands Shopping Centre.<br />

Linwood Ward city councillor<br />

Yani Johanson also questioned<br />

whether taking the funding<br />

from the intersection safety<br />

improvement was the right thing<br />

to do.<br />

“The issue here is that we are<br />

robbing a safety intersection<br />

improvement that we publicly<br />

consulted on during out LTP to<br />

pay for a public transport hub<br />

where there is still not a clear<br />

idea about what that public<br />

transport hub will look like.”<br />

However, city council staff<br />

said the safety improvements<br />

had been completed and the $1.1<br />

million was leftover.<br />

Cr Johanson would not<br />

support moving the funding<br />

without public consultation<br />

or before Environment<br />

SAFETY: $1.1<br />

million has<br />

been set aside<br />

for a new bus<br />

hub outside<br />

Eastgate Mall. •From page 1<br />

Canterbury’s Regional Public<br />

Transport Plan had been<br />

released as it could impact the<br />

Eastgate area.<br />

Staff said there was work that<br />

could be done that “would not<br />

be undone” following the plan’s<br />

release and other construction<br />

would not be done before the<br />

plan was finalised.<br />

“There is still a need for the<br />

pedestrian crossing and other<br />

safety measures to be undertaken<br />

like tactiles, etc.”<br />

Artwork to<br />

celebrate<br />

suffrage<br />

anniversary<br />

A PIECE of an artwork celebrating<br />

the 125th anniversary of women’s<br />

suffrage will be made at a free<br />

workshop this weekend.<br />

Dunedin artist Janet de Wagt<br />

will host the free art workshop,<br />

supported by Heritage New Zealand,<br />

as part of the Rewind event<br />

this Sunday at Ferrymead Heritage<br />

Park.<br />

Participants will create a commemorative<br />

banner that will be<br />

joined with other banners made<br />

in other workshops at key heritage<br />

locations around the country over<br />

the next few months.<br />

The artwork will be launched at<br />

the Old Government Buildings in<br />

Wellington in April 2019.<br />

Heritage New Zealand’s Rosemary<br />

Baird said the banners were<br />

a reference to the three Parliamentary<br />

petitions that circulated<br />

around the country, resulting in<br />

women being granted the right to<br />

vote on September 19, 1893.<br />

All materials will be provided<br />

at the workshop and a colouringin<br />

competition for children will<br />

take place in the same space, with<br />

prizes presented in the afternoon.<br />

Bird bath welcomed at cemetery<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

A COMMUNITY-MADE<br />

memorial bird bath was blessed<br />

and officially welcomed at<br />

Diamond Harbour Cemetery<br />

on Monday.<br />

While the bird bath has been<br />

in place for more than a week,<br />

15 Diamond Harbour residents<br />

gathered to bless it by taking<br />

turns to speak about its meaning<br />

and fill the bowl with water.<br />

Creator and Green Burials<br />

Group member Anne van der<br />

Kooi said the inclusion of the<br />

bird bath completed the ecoburial<br />

area. “I feel really good<br />

about it. It has a calming effect.”<br />

She said the idea for the bird<br />

bath had first come up at a<br />

meeting last year.<br />

At the time, Mrs van der Kooi<br />

had a block of Ōāmaru stone in<br />

her garden which she planned<br />

to turn into a bird bath for her<br />

own garden. “But I thought,<br />

I could gift this to the community.”<br />

The group arranged for<br />

another block of the stone to be<br />

bought for the top section, and<br />

after getting advice from a local<br />

potter, Mrs van der Kooi began<br />

shaping the bird bath herself.<br />

She said it was designed to<br />

reflect the natural cycle of life,<br />

with the circular shape of the<br />

bath itself evoking a sense of<br />

“never-ending.”<br />

“I think it’s really peaceful.<br />

You’re born, you live, you die,<br />

and your body goes back to the<br />

earth.”<br />

Mrs van der Kooi said the<br />

bird bath would fill naturally<br />

with rainwater, but a nearby tap<br />

meant visitors to the cemetery<br />

could top it up in drier periods.<br />

She said it was “really nice to<br />

see” her creation grow as she<br />

worked on it each day over two<br />

months. The stone was not too<br />

difficult for an amateur to work<br />

with, she said.<br />

“It’s fairly giving, you don’t<br />

have to apply much force.” A<br />

keen advocate for eco-burial,<br />

Mrs van der Kooi said the bird<br />

bath was better where it was,<br />

rather than in her own garden<br />

as she had planned.<br />

“I think I will be there longer<br />

than here,” she said.<br />

The group finished Monday’s<br />

ceremony with a picnic.<br />

BLESSING: Community<br />

members blessed the new<br />

bird bath on Monday by taking<br />

turns pouring water into<br />

its bowl.<br />

Trees trimmed at<br />

Ronald McDonald House<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

SCRUFFY TREES surrounding<br />

the city’s Ronald McDonald<br />

House have been tidied up.<br />

Beaver Tree Service Ltd<br />

donated their time and skills<br />

recently to help trim trees, along<br />

with removing deadwood and<br />

hazardous branches from around<br />

the building.<br />

The company brought smiles<br />

to children at the house with lead<br />

arborist David McKeich climbing<br />

the trees in a beaver suit.<br />

Office manager Belinda Henderson<br />

said it decided to do the<br />

work free of charge after Ronald<br />

McDonald phoned up asking for<br />

a quote to have their trees tidied.<br />

“It means it doesn’t come out of<br />

their budget, they can use it for<br />

something else,” she said.<br />

Beaver also supports social<br />

enterprise and non-profit organisation<br />

B1G1 which helps feed impoverished<br />

children throughout<br />

New Zealand.<br />

In about 2013 the company<br />

sponsored a room at Ronald Mc-<br />

stay for free.<br />

Help out a<br />

penguin on<br />

Southshore<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

SOUTHSHORE families will<br />

come together to build new nests<br />

for penguins.<br />

The Southshore Residents’<br />

Association is organising the<br />

event on <strong>October</strong> 20, which aims<br />

to teach families about penguin<br />

habitats in the area.<br />

Last week the Coastal-Burwood<br />

Community Board granted $1000<br />

from its discretionary response<br />

fund to go towards the project.<br />

The building of the nests will be<br />

led by city council coastal rangers,<br />

while New Brighton Menz Shed<br />

members will pre-cut the wood.<br />

Residents’ association<br />

chairwoman Lynda Burdekin<br />

hopes it will encourage<br />

more penguins to nest in the<br />

area.<br />

The event will be held from<br />

10am-2pm at the South Brighton<br />

Community Centre on Beatty St<br />

and will include a community<br />

picnic.<br />

Older children will be involved<br />

in building the nesting boxes,<br />

while there will be a range of<br />

penguin-focused activities for<br />

younger children.<br />

Cruise ship season under way<br />

MORE THAN 90 cruise ships<br />

will weigh anchor in Akaroa<br />

Harbour this season but plans<br />

are in place to lessen the impact<br />

on local residents and the town’s<br />

infrastructure.<br />

The first cruise ship, the Majestic<br />

Princess, arrived yesterday<br />

and the last for the season, the<br />

Golden Princess, sails into the<br />

harbour on April 13 next year.<br />

Akaroa will<br />

host two ships<br />

in one day on<br />

10 occasions<br />

during the season<br />

and three<br />

ships will visit<br />

the town on<br />

Bruce<br />

Rendall<br />

February 11.<br />

On the busiest<br />

day, up to<br />

5500 passengers may arrive in<br />

the Banks Peninsula harbour.<br />

City council head of facilities,<br />

property and planning Bruce<br />

Rendall said each cruise ship<br />

visit was managed to help tourists<br />

enjoy their time on shore<br />

but also ease any pressure on<br />

the local area.<br />

“We know that the area<br />

around the Akaroa Wharf gets<br />

very busy on cruise ship days,”<br />

Mr Rendall said.<br />

“We work to manage this<br />

often congested area to ensure<br />

safety, while also helping visitors<br />

to make the most of local<br />

tours and activities.”<br />

Each ship visit required a targeted<br />

traffic management plan,<br />

including parking restrictions.<br />

“We also oversee the licensing<br />

of operators while keeping<br />

activity and tour sales separate<br />

from departure points so that<br />

we don’t have people milling<br />

around in the main pedestrian<br />

traffic areas,” Mr Rendall<br />

said.<br />

“Equally importantly,” Mr<br />

Rendall said the city council<br />

worked with cruise ship companies<br />

to minimise the cost to<br />

ratepayers.<br />

Funding was also recently<br />

secured by the city council towards<br />

new toilet facilities to ease<br />

the impact on local amenities in<br />

the future.<br />

SMOOTH<br />

SAILING:<br />

The city<br />

council<br />

says there<br />

are plans<br />

in place to<br />

handle the<br />

cruise ship<br />

New figures show that, overall,<br />

New Zealand’s cruise sector<br />

has climbed in value by 18 per<br />

cent to $434 million in the year<br />

to June.<br />

Meanwhile, work was under<br />

Peninsula popular playground<br />

THE FIRST Life in<br />

Christchurch Natural<br />

Environment Survey has<br />

shown the beaches, rivers and<br />

harbours of Banks Peninsula are<br />

the favoured playgrounds for<br />

Cantabrians.<br />

Between 60 and 80 per cent<br />

of the online survey’s 2350<br />

respondents said they had<br />

visited the Port Hills, Heathcote<br />

River or Banks Peninsula’s bays<br />

and harbours in the last 12<br />

months.<br />

Around 85 per cent said they<br />

visited Christchurch and Banks<br />

Peninsula’s natural areas for<br />

recreational purposes such as<br />

walking and cycling.<br />

The survey was conducted between<br />

May 11 and June 11 and<br />

the results would be used to help<br />

inform city council decisions.<br />

It also sought feedback on<br />

environmental and biodiversity<br />

issues, natural environments,<br />

waterway quality and amenity,<br />

responsibility and actions, and<br />

climate change.<br />

More than half of the<br />

respondents described their<br />

understanding of environmental<br />

issues in Christchurch and<br />

Banks Peninsula as good or very<br />

good.<br />

However, only 44 per cent<br />

POPULAR: Most respondents to the first Life in Christchurch Natural Environment Survey have<br />

said the Port Hills, beaches and harbours are their go-to recreation areas. ​<br />

rated their understanding of<br />

biodiversity as good or very<br />

good.<br />

City council monitoring<br />

and research team leader Kath<br />

Jamieson said the survey highlighted<br />

that local residents valued<br />

their natural environment<br />

and were prepared to play their<br />

part in protecting and nurturing<br />

the region.<br />

“The biennial survey shows<br />

that 97 per cent of respondents<br />

agree or strongly agree that the<br />

city’s natural flora and fauna,<br />

and landscapes need to be<br />

protected for future generations<br />

while 95 per cent see native<br />

bush, tussock land and wetlands<br />

as important to the region’s<br />

identity,” she said.<br />

While surface water and<br />

the quality of riverbanks were<br />

viewed as being in the poorest<br />

condition, Ms Jamieson said<br />

the city council was pleased<br />

that around 30 per cent said<br />

they had volunteered for conservation<br />

work in the past 12<br />

months.<br />

That included picking up<br />

rubbish, weeding or taking part<br />

in community planting.<br />

Thefts from<br />

mailboxes<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

PARCELS, LETTERS and bills<br />

are being taken from mailboxes<br />

around Diamond Harbour.<br />

Last week, Purau Ave resident<br />

Tara Meredith left her house to<br />

pick her daughter up and saw two<br />

letters in the mailbox, which she<br />

left to collect afterwards.<br />

When she returned around 30<br />

minutes later, they were gone and<br />

nobody else was home.<br />

“It’s so blatant, our mailbox is in<br />

the open.”<br />

She said she had not received<br />

two parcels sent by a friend over<br />

the last month and believed they<br />

too had been stolen.<br />

Mrs Meredith said she reported<br />

the missing letters to New Zealand<br />

Post and had been told she<br />

was not alone.<br />

“There’s more than one complaint,<br />

there’s quite a few.”<br />

She also reported the theft to<br />

police, the only person to do so as<br />

of last week.<br />

A NZ Post spokeswoman said<br />

the company was aware of mail<br />

going missing and said any missing<br />

mail should be reported as<br />

soon as possible.<br />

They said there was no suggestion<br />

it had “anything to do with<br />

NZ Post” staff and the matter was<br />

being investigated.<br />

HEARING HELP IN HORNBY<br />

How is your hearing?<br />

In New Zealand, one in six people have some degree of hearing difficulty.<br />

Over the age of 60, more than half the population are living with a<br />

significant hearing reduction. This invisible condition can be incredibly<br />

frustrating, as conversation on a one to one basis can be no problem, but<br />

social situations become very uncomfortable indeed. Background noise<br />

can make conversation almost impossible to follow causing some<br />

sufferers to remove themselves from the conversation, or even avoid<br />

going to the social function completely.<br />

Other early signs of hearing difficulty are a creeping up of the volume<br />

control on the TV, frequently asking family and friends to repeat<br />

themselves, or accusing people of mumbling when they speak. With<br />

hearing loss recently being linked to the early onset of Dementia in studies<br />

throughout the world, these early signs are not to be ignored.<br />

Hear Again have extensive experience of helping people overcome their<br />

hearing difficulties. From a simple check to see if your ears are blocked<br />

with wax, to the provision and fine tuning of the very latest hearing devices<br />

from the worlds leading hearing aid manufacturers, the friendly team are<br />

here to help, even if you need to be seen on a weekend.<br />

Neil Hardisty, NZAS Audiometrist, has been expertly overcoming hearing<br />

difficulties for residents of Christchurch since 20<strong>09</strong>. Neil is frequently<br />

praised for his limitless patience, wonderful caring nature and ability to<br />

solve problems which other clinicians have deemed impossible. Neil is<br />

never satisfied until you are. His expertise, coupled with Customer<br />

Service Advisors Christine and Louise with their welcoming, friendly<br />

nature, and the very latest technology make for a winning combination.<br />

Hear Again offer FREE no obligation initial hearing assessments. If you,<br />

or any of your loved ones have noticed any difficulties with your hearing,<br />

this can be quickly and painlessly checked for you at The Hub, 418 Main<br />

South Road, Hornby. If you already have hearing aids from any<br />

manufacturer, we will give them a FREE clean and check to ensure they<br />

are in tip top condition. Call 03 974 1658 to book your free check.<br />

We look forward to delighting you with our service and help you, or your<br />

loved ones make the most of your hearing and to rejoin the conversation.<br />

Bringing outer-space<br />

to the central city<br />

• By Sophie Cornish<br />

HANNAH BEEHRE has<br />

brought outer-space to the<br />

central city.<br />

As part of SCAPE Public Art’s<br />

20th-anniversary season, Beehre’s<br />

display Tunnel hopes to captivate<br />

viewers for the next six weeks.<br />

Nestled deep inside the Canterbury<br />

Museum, the display creates<br />

a walk-through rendering of a<br />

nebula – clouds of gas and dust<br />

from outer space, visible in the<br />

night sky.<br />

It will form the entrance to the<br />

exhibition Wildlife Photographer<br />

of the Year and is expected<br />

to bring 60,000 visitors over the<br />

exhibition period.<br />

It is constructed from dyed silk<br />

velvet with Swarovski crystals,<br />

LED lights and mirrored flooring.<br />

The 41-year-old artist moved<br />

to Christchurch from Auckland<br />

in 1998 to study at Canterbury<br />

University’s School of Fine Arts.<br />

She completed her degree in<br />

Beehre says her five-year-old<br />

daughter, Parker, is her biggest<br />

fan.<br />

“She’s really excited about it,<br />

she asked me if we could go<br />

through it holding hands. I feel<br />

like I am making the work for<br />

her as well. So I am excited to see<br />

her reaction. She’s my biggest fan,<br />

she’s really sweet. Sometimes she<br />

will point out: ‘Oh that bit is not<br />

right’.’’<br />

Last Friday marked the opening<br />

of SCAPE’s 20th-anniversary<br />

season, the display will be on<br />

show for six weeks.<br />

The trust has installed 216 temporary<br />

artworks and 14 permanent<br />

works include Nucleus by Phil<br />

Price on the corners of Manchester,<br />

High and Lichfield<br />

Market stall opens up<br />

chance to trap pests<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

TRAPPING PESTS in the Port<br />

Hills has become a lot easier<br />

thanks to a new stall at the<br />

Mt Pleasant Farmers’<br />

Market.<br />

The Predator Free<br />

Bays stall first appeared<br />

at the market on<br />

September 29 and will<br />

continue to be there<br />

until Christmas at least.<br />

It is being staffed by<br />

volunteers.<br />

Predator Free Mt<br />

Pleasant co-ordinator<br />

Derek McCullough said<br />

the weekend had been<br />

a success for the group,<br />

with about 30 more<br />

people signing up to trap pests in<br />

the area.<br />

“It went really well and we had<br />

a good turn out.”<br />

He said a demonstration<br />

Goodnature trap “smashing”<br />

bananas had been “a crowdpleaser”.<br />

Mr McCullough said the<br />

movement had “really taken off”<br />

in the Port Hills area over the last<br />

six months.<br />

“It allows people to come and<br />

get their traps, record their kills,<br />

talk to other trappers about<br />

what’s working and what’s not.”<br />

He said interest in conservation<br />

has increased as people become<br />

more aware of the Predator Free<br />

NEW: The<br />

Predator<br />

Free Bays<br />

stall opened<br />

for the first<br />

time at the<br />

weekend<br />

at the Mt<br />

Pleasant<br />

Farmers’<br />

Market.<br />

programme.<br />

“People didn’t realise that just<br />

by setting up a trap, they could<br />

be part of the solution.”<br />

Mr McCullough believed there<br />

were more than<br />

100 trappers in Mt<br />

Pleasant, Redcliffs<br />

and Sumner. He<br />

said he had received<br />

a lot of feedback<br />

from people interested<br />

in where they<br />

could get traps.<br />

The stall would<br />

now operate as<br />

a hub for people<br />

interested in trapping<br />

in the area,<br />

as previously the<br />

community mostly<br />

met online.<br />

“It’s good to get the visibility<br />

and to get people involved and<br />

talking to other trappers.”<br />

New trappers may get discouraged<br />

if they can’t get any feedback<br />

or advice, he said.<br />

Most traps available at the stall<br />

cost about $20-$30, with more<br />

intricate designs costing up to<br />

$100.<br />

“There’ll be a range of traps<br />

available. The two big predators<br />

we’re after are rats and possums.”​<br />

Mr McCullough said the group<br />

would look at continuing the stall<br />

in the new year depending on<br />

numbers and sales. “If it maintains<br />

interest, we definitely will.”<br />

Surreal design wins award<br />

MT PLEASANT’S Tina<br />

Hutchison-Thomas was one of<br />

four Christchurch designers<br />

to take home awards from<br />

the World of Wearable Arts<br />

competition.<br />

Mrs Hutchison-Thomas won<br />

the New Zealand Design Award<br />

for her garment Eye See you<br />

Fluffy Kōwhai.<br />

She said the design was inspired<br />

by the venezuelan poodle<br />

moth and was made of faux fur<br />

and crystals.<br />

“I was drawn to the poodle<br />

moth with its beautiful fluffy<br />

body, which reminds me of<br />

luxurious opera cloaks from the<br />

1920s,” she said.<br />

More than 3500 crystals were<br />

sown into the design to represent<br />

the eye-like colours often seen<br />

on the wings of moths and butterflies.<br />

WOW founder and head Judge<br />

Dame Suzie Moncrieff said<br />

judges described Eye See you<br />

Fluffy Kōwhai as “surreal and<br />

sensuous.”<br />

“The different mediums<br />

used in the construction of<br />

the garment are balanced<br />

beautifully.”<br />

Christchurch central sisters<br />

Natasha English and Tatyanna<br />

Meharry won the Supreme<br />

Award with WAR sTOrY, as well<br />

as winning the Aotearoa section.<br />

The garment commemorated<br />

the more than 120,000 New<br />

Zealand men and women who<br />

served in World War 1, of which<br />

more than 18,000 never returned<br />

home.<br />

It was created using recycled<br />

objects such as old military and<br />

household blankets, salvaged<br />

rimu from demolished houses,<br />

old collected plastic toy soldiers,<br />

broken crushed red bricks and<br />

traded pieces of pounamu.<br />

was “an exceptional example of<br />

powerful storytelling realised<br />

Woolston Fire Station opened<br />

THE NEW Woolston Fire<br />

Station has been officially<br />

opened, it is the third of six<br />

stations to be rebuilt.<br />

Fire and Emergency chairman<br />

Paul Swain, who opened the station,<br />

said the February 22, 2011,<br />

earthquake devastated the city’s<br />

fire stations.<br />

“This modern station is<br />

another step in redeveloping<br />

the metropolitan city’s entire<br />

network of fire stations.”<br />

The new Woolston station was<br />

built on the site of the former<br />

station at a total cost of $6.9 million.<br />

More than 900 piles were<br />

driven in to strengthen the site,<br />

which is 1.2m higher than it was<br />

before.<br />

It features two appliance<br />

bays, six single bedrooms, a<br />

gym, kitchen and lounge and<br />

purpose-built dirty-to-clean<br />

zones.<br />

There, firefighters could bag<br />

smoke-contaminated gear in a<br />

negative pressure environment<br />

before showering to prevent<br />

carcinogen transfer into clean<br />

living and work areas.<br />

The station also has a vehicle<br />

fume management system, a<br />

hose that connects to vehicle<br />

exhausts, so the appliance bay<br />

would not fill with fumes from<br />

appliances coming and going.<br />

The Woolston crew moved<br />

back to the station in mid-June,<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 />

Summer tipple brewing for<br />

Governors Bay jetty fund<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

IF YOU’RE drinking a beer<br />

over summer, it may as well be<br />

for a good cause.<br />

A limited one-off brew<br />

from Two Thumbs Brewing<br />

Co, set to be released next<br />

month, will raise money<br />

for the restoration of the<br />

Governors Bay jetty.<br />

Brewery owner and<br />

Governors Bay resident<br />

Mark Limber said it was<br />

“a bit of no-brainer” to<br />

combine his love of brewing<br />

with a passion for his<br />

community.<br />

“Everybody wants a beer for<br />

Christmas, it may as well be<br />

for a good cause.”<br />

Cases of the yet to be named<br />

and labelled “jetty beer” are<br />

available for pre-order.<br />

All profits will go towards<br />

the restoration of the jetty,<br />

with Two Thumbs only<br />

recouping the cost of labour<br />

and ingredients.<br />

The recipe was known as a<br />

steam beer, using yeast strands<br />

that normally favoured cooler<br />

temperatures in a hot brewing<br />

process.<br />

“It’s something light,<br />

between a pale ale and a lager.”<br />

Mr Limber said his brewery<br />

had released a similar recipe<br />

last summer which “went<br />

down so well.”<br />

“I just thought this would be<br />

ideal.”<br />

The mix was fermenting<br />

last week, and was put into a<br />

conditioning tank this week<br />

where it would stay for a<br />

further two to three weeks.<br />

“That’s when all the flavour<br />

starts developing.”<br />

Only one 800-litre batch<br />

will be brewed, which would<br />

equate to 129 cases of 12<br />

500ml bottles.<br />

“Once those 129 cases are<br />

gone, it’s gone,” Mr Limber<br />

said.<br />

The jetty was an “icon” in<br />

the area, Mr Limber said. It<br />

has been there for more than<br />

100 years and was closed after<br />

the earthquakes.<br />

Mr Limber said the<br />

Governors Bay Jetty Trust<br />

estimated it could restore the<br />

jetty for $3 million.<br />

The city council has agreed<br />

to match the trust with up to<br />

$1.5 million in funding.<br />

The trust had arranged with<br />

the city council to purchase<br />

the jetty for the nominal fee<br />

of $1. It would then sell<br />

the jetty back for the same<br />

price once renovations are<br />

complete.<br />

Mr Limber said the group<br />

had applied for grants to fund<br />

the work and needed $600,000<br />

from the community –<br />

$200,000 of which they had<br />

already raised.<br />

OUTCRY: A proposal to close the squash<br />

courts at Lyttelton Recreation Centre has<br />

been delayed by four months. ​<br />

Squash court<br />

decision delayed<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

A DECISION on the fate of Lyttelton’s<br />

squash court has been delayed for<br />

another four months.<br />

The city council considered temporarily<br />

closing the Lyttelton Recreation<br />

Centre’s squash court to trial a community<br />

gym in partnership with Project<br />

Lyttelton.<br />

However, city council head of community<br />

support, governance and partnerships<br />

John Filsell said there had “not<br />

been any decision” to close the remaining<br />

court.<br />

Rather it was decided<br />

to look at usage over a<br />

period of four months.<br />

“Four months takes<br />

us into the new year and<br />

provides an opportunity<br />

to evaluate where we are<br />

and consider the matter in John Filsell<br />

an open and constructive<br />

manner. It is a milestone, not a deadline.”<br />

Over the period, bookings would be<br />

monitored and players are encouraged to<br />

make greater use of the facility.<br />

“The squash court usage will be evaluated<br />

against other potential community<br />

uses for the space,” Mr Filsell said.<br />

He said it provided the “squash community<br />

with an opportunity to promote<br />

the use of the facility, while allowing the<br />

city council’s partnership with Project<br />

Lyttelton to focus on activating the recreation<br />

centre.” After Project Lyttelton’s<br />

proposal to close and replace the court<br />

with a gym proved unpopular with some<br />

residents in August, the city council said<br />

it would consider the views of the community,<br />

and squash players in particular.<br />

Since then, 89 submissions were received<br />

on the squash court, 19 from people<br />

identified as having used the court.<br />

Concerns have been raised that closing<br />

the court could effectively kill off the<br />

sport in Lyttelton, as the nearest city<br />

council-owned squash court are in<br />

Sockburn.

Hillmorton rue lost chances on court<br />

• By Jacob Page<br />

THE Hillmorton High<br />

senior boys basketball team<br />

finished ninth at their national<br />

tournament at Palmerston North<br />

on Thursday.<br />

The South Island single A<br />

smaller schools champions were<br />

left to rue early losses which saw<br />

them tied with three teams for<br />

TOUGH WEEK: Hillmorton<br />

High School finished ninth<br />

at the national tournament<br />

in Palmerston North on<br />

Thursday.<br />

PHOTO: ANDREA KENDREW<br />

the final top eight spot.<br />

Unfortunately, they were<br />

relegated to the bottom eight and<br />

had to pick themselves up and<br />

push for ninth.<br />

Team manager Andrea<br />

Kendrew said starting the<br />

tournament with two losses was<br />

far from ideal.<br />

“I think the boys are pretty<br />

gutted to be honest, but I was<br />

proud of how they picked themselves<br />

up and played hard to<br />

finish ninth.”<br />

The team were runners-up at<br />

nationals last year and with most<br />

of the team returning.<br />

Their aim was to go one better,<br />

but it was not to be. An 82-65<br />

loss to Hamilton’s Nga Taiatea<br />

Wharekura and s defeat to<br />

Catholic Cathedral College 77-64<br />

made things tricky for the team<br />

and they never recovered.<br />

“We’ve had other South Island<br />

teams finish ahead of us but<br />

that’s the nature of tournament<br />

basketball.”<br />

The team finished with a 65-53<br />

win over Tai Wananga.<br />

The team will lose six of its<br />

squad next year, as they are all in<br />

their final year of school.<br />
