Call for more road safety
measures on Richmond Hill
• By Matt Salmons
THIS PHOTO shows why
residents on a hill above Sumner
need a footpath.
New 40km/h speed signs will
be installed on Richmond Hill
Rd this week, but residents say
more still needs to be done to
make the narrow road safer.
Increasing traffic in the area
had increased concern about
driver and pedestrian safety.
Kathy Duncan said residents are
worried about the safety of people
walking or cycling between the
top corner and Cecil Wood Way as
there was no footpath.
“There’s been so many near
misses. Every person who lives
on that road has a story.”
About 18 residents, community
board and residents’ association
members met with city council
traffic and transport staff on
Wednesday to discuss the issue.
Mrs Duncan said a number
of ideas to address concerns
were mooted at the meeting and
council staff said they would
look into them and report back.
“We’ll see what happens, but
we left the meeting feeling quite
positive,” she said.
City council transport planning
and delivery manager
Lynette Ellis said staff were “currently
working through options
to address concerns.”

Darrell Latham said one solution
suggested by residents was a
“rudimentary” gravel pathway
on city council reserve land
alongside Richmond Hill Rd.
“They [city council staff] are
looking for pragmatic solutions
as funding is very limited,” Dr
Latham said.

“Staff are assessing whether
there are any funding options

were “willing to put in” for the
path through providing labour.
Another solution was to extend
a track between Richmond
Hill and Cliffton Hill to run
down the gully between the two,
finishing at the bottom corner of
Richmond Hill Rd.
Said resident Jenny Cunningham:
“That seems like a pretty
easy fix to me . . . just build the
walking track completely off the
road.”
Ms Cunningham said such
a track would be popular with
other Sumner residents wanting
to access reserves and cycle
tracks in the area.

EVERY PICTURE tells a story they say,
and on page 1 it is loud and clear.
Residents have been campaigning to
make Richmond Hill Rd safer for sometime.
The speed will be reduced to 40km/h
this week but locals say a tragedy could
happen anytime.
That’s because the road is too narrow and clearly, going by our
photo, vehicles and pedestrians get uncomfortably close.
Says resident Kathy Duncan: “There’s been so many near
misses. Every person who lives on that road has a story.”
Residents and community board members have met with city
council staff and suggested solutions.
Let’s hope the powers that be have a look at our front page.
They’ll then realise how serious the situation is.

Uhtred of Bebbanburg has won back his ancestral home
but, threatened from all sides by enemies both old and new,
he doesn’t have long to enjoy the victory.
In Mercia, rebellion is in the air as King Edward tries to seize
control. In Wessex, rival parties scramble to settle on the identity
of the next king. And across the country invading Norsemen
continue their relentless incursion, ever hungry for land.
Uhtred – a legendary warrior, admired and sought as an ally, feared as an
adversary – finds himself once again torn between his two heritages: fighting on
what he considers the wrong side, cursed by misfortune and tragedy and facing
one of his most formidable enemies. Only the most astute cunning,
the greatest loyalty and the most spectacular courage can save him.
For decades, Uhtred has stood at the intersection between Pagan and Christian,
between Saxon and Viking, between the old world he was born into and the new
world being forged around him. But as the winds of change gather pace, the
pressure on Uhtred as father, as politician and as warrior grows as never before.

Quake survey to help evacuation plan
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
Matthew
Hughes
RESIDENTS LIVING in coastal
areas including Redcliffs and
Sumner, who evacuated the
night of the 2016 Kaikoura
earthquake, are being called to
take part in a major research
project.
Canterbury
University
is aiming to
survey
as many
residents as
possible to
collect data
on the tsunami
evacuation
response
which took
place following the magnitude
7.8 earthquake.
It will focus on residents living
in coastal areas such as New
Brighton, Southshore and the
bays of Banks Peninsula.
Dr Matthew Hughes, one of
the academics overseeing the
project, said the survey isn’t
about asking for opinions on the
night, but what residents did in
response to the tsunami hazard.
The survey is part of a wider
research project led by GNS
Science called Quicker and Safer
Tsunami Evacuation through
agent-based modelling.
The larger project is looking at

Mr Hughes said the data collected

“But the really crucial part of
this is this is going to start informing
sophisticated computer
modelling of population movements
when they evacuate,” he
said.
The models will simulate people

First sail for
historic tug
hits delay
• By Matt Salmons
OPERATORS OF the historic
tug Lyttelton say their first
passenger cruise will not happen
until January, a month later than
they had hoped.
Tug Lyttelton Preservation
Society head stoker Mike Bruce
said the marine surveyor who
oversaw the tug’s sea trials on
October 4 had given the society
a list of items to address before
they could carry passengers.
Though the society had funding
to address most of it, the
timeframe pushed the date back
from December.
“It’s nothing major, It’s just
time and effort,” Mr Bruce said.
The list included the need to
add another emergency exit and
update flotation devices, fire
extinguishers, signage and communication
equipment.
The most difficult item to address
on the list was the requirement
for the lifeboat to be at least
2.8m long and capable of travelling
at 6kn for two hours.
Currently, the society used
a rowboat, Mr Bruce said. He
said the society would request
an exemption for the lifeboat
requirement.”
School demolition under way
• By Matt Salmons
DEMOLITION OF the old
Redcliffs School buildings
on Main Rd is expected to be
finished in three weeks.
Work began on site last week.
Principal Rose McInerney said
Scope Group contractors were
demolishing the hall and removing
asbestos last week.
“The kids are really interested
in it and they’re keeping an eye
on it because they live close by.”
She said pupils would be allowed
on site on November 13 to
see the “biggest, most dramatic
parts” get demolished.
“It’s really cool the kids can be
involved,” she said.
Meanwhile, the Workforce
and Education Select Committee
continues its investigation into
the Friends of Redcliffs Park’s
fight to return the school to the
Main Rd site.
Group member Chris Doudney
said it was “very sad” the
old school buildings were being
demolished.
He said the committee had
received evidence from the
Ministry of Education and the
Friends of Redcliffs Park had sent
a response to that last week.
Once the committee had completed
its investigation, it would
give a recommendation to Parliament.
There was no set timeline
for how long that process could
take.
Once that recommendation
was given, the Government
would have 60 days to respond
as to whether it would take any
action.
“I think it’s very unfortunate
that the Ministry has gone on
with the demolition without
waiting for the select committee’s
recommendation,” Mr Doudney
said.
Mrs McInerney said the demolition
would resonate most with
the school’s final year group,
as they had been new entrants
during the February 22, 2011,
earthquake.
She said the demolition of the
hall was an especially emotional
time because it had been halfowned
by the school community.
The school had tried to have

the hall moved to the new school
site in Redcliffs Park, but due to
its proximity to the cliffs, it was
deemed too dangerous.
“But it’s also great because
all of the insurance money has
meant we can have a lovely
new hall [at the new school] . .
. similar in size to the one we
had.”
The new school was expected
to open in early 2020.

Woman hit by golf ball;
call for warning signs
• By Julia Evans
THE CITY council is
investigating ways to stop
people being hit by golf
balls on a Ferrymead
walking track.
It comes after a woman
was hit by wayward ball
from the Ferrymead Golf
course and taken to hospital
on October 13.
Head of parks Andrew
Rutledge said: “Staff have
spoken to the club regarding
the incident and are
considering options to
reduce the likelihood of a
similar incident occurring
again.”
Heathcote Ward city
councillor Sara Templeton
said it was a “serious” issue.
She was contacted by the
mother of the woman involved
who wants warning
signage installed.
“I have put in a request
through the normal city
council processes, but
also raised it at the board
meeting in case others had
heard about the incident
and to let them know that
I’d started the process,” she
said.
Still Pedalling!
PROXIMITY: City council staff are investigating
ways to prevent walkers being hit by balls near
the Ferrymead Golf course after a woman was hit
recently.
Cr Templeton raised the
issue and called for signs
to be installed at
the last Linwood-
Central-Heathcote
Community Board
meeting.
But said she would
be following up with
city council staff.
“It’s a popular
track which winds
along the lower reaches of
the Opawaho Heathcote
River from near Ferrymead
Park, past Ferrymead Golf
and Calder Green Reserve,”
she said.
She said there were lots of
Sara
Templeton
people walking with dogs
or riding bikes.
Ferrymead Golf
owner Carl Lawson
said it’s the first
time in the 11 years
he’s been there that
someone has been
hit.
However, he said
there are already
signs warning of a
golf course and it wouldn’t
hurt the city council to install
some warning of balls.
“It’s bloody awful that
she got hit, it would be nice
if they put some signs up,”
he said.

Further clarification
sought on pile driving
impact on dolphins
• By Matt Salmons
THE BANKS Peninsula
Community Board is
seeking more information
from the Lyttelton
Port Company after it
responded to questions
about efforts to mitigate
the impact on Hector’s
dolphins from pile driving.
Said community board
member Felix Dawson:
“We’ve simply asked
for the answers to the
questions that we asked,
several we haven’t received
answers to.”
Last week, questions
from were sent to LPC
through Christchurch
City Holdings Ltd, the
owner and operator of the
port, on how the negative
impacts to dolphins
from pile driving
work on the new
cruise berth would
be mitigated.
THey were sent
alongside a city
council request for
an update on the
piling operation and
marine mammal
monitoring to date.
THis week the
community board
requested a number of
questions be re-sent to
LPC, seeking sound
recording and noise level
data, the marine mammal
management plan and
information on marine
observers.
A city council
spokeswoman said any
further questions would
be co-ordinated through
the office of chief executive
Karleen Edwards.
Hector’s and Māui
Dolphin Defenders
committee member
Genevieve Robinson told
the community board on
Monday that “raw data”
was needed.
“I’ve received the
information that LPC
has provided
. . . there’s
some useful
information but
there’s some
key information
missing,” Ms
Robinson said.
In response to
the initial questions,
LPC chief executive
Peter Davie said
LPC was working with some
of the country’s “leading
marine mammal and
acoustics experts” to minimise
the effects of pile driving on
dolphins.
Mitigation steps included
18 months of recorded
data from eight passive
acoustic detectors and four
hydrophones, a monitored
exclusion zone that if a
dolphin enters, work will
cease and “soft starts” to
allow dolphins time to
Genevieve
Robinson
evacuate the harbour when
work starts.
Mr Davie said
monitoring of noise
levels and the presence of
dolphins would be ongoing.
LPC’s marine mammal
management plan, to be
provided by a marine
mammal expert from the
Cawthron Institute, would
be publicly available once
completed next month.
Noise level data from landbased
piling would also be
released publicly, once it
had been analysed.
Ms Robinson said the
revised MMMP and sound
recording data was needed
sooner, as piling was due to
start next month.
“THat might provide
us with only a threeday
window to provide
feedback,” she said.
Mr Dawson said he
found LPC’s responses
“inconsistent,” as they
had “made a point” of
saying the MMMP would
be available for feedback,
which would be considered
by the company.
“How are they going to
respond to it, let alone hear
it?”
Timeball to reopen on Friday
• By Matt Salmons
SEVEN YEARS after being
almost completely destroyed,
Lyttelton’s restored Timeball
tower will officially reopen to the
public on Friday.
After sustaining damage in the
February 22, 2011, earthquake,
the semi-deconstructed station
was then damaged beyond repair
during an aftershock later that
year.
Heritage New Zealand director
southern region Sheila Watson
said the restoration of the tower
and flagpole was finished in June,
but the area remained closed as
landscaping was finished.
After an opening ceremony,
people will be able to visit the site
during daylight hours, while at
night the tower will be lit up. Flag
displays will also feature during
the year.
OPENING: Lyttelton’s Timeball will reopen to
the public on Friday after the final touches are
completed on the restoration project.

Made In Scotland
My Grand Adventures in a Wee Country
By Billy Connolly
All roads lead home. ‘After my knighthood was announced a
woman from the BBC came to Glasgow to interview me. We
sat down in a lovely hotel in a nice part of town, and she hit
me with her first question- “This must mean a lot to you, with
you coming from nothing? “I looked at her, and I laughed
“I did? nae come from nothing, “I told her. “I come from
something. “I grew up in the tenements of post-war Glasgow.
I am very proud to be working class, and especially a
working-class Glaswegian who has worked in the shipyards.
I come from the working class. And, most of all, I come
from Scotland. Scotland is a unique and wonderful place. Its
national motto says a lot about it- Nemo me impunelacessit.
A decent translation might be- ‘By all means punch me in the
nose but prepare yourself for a kick in the arse? I did? nae
come from nothing- I come from Scotland. And this book is
about why I will always be happy and proud that I do.?
Whiskey in a Teacup
What Growing Up in the South Taught Me About Life,
Love, and Baking Biscuits By reese Witherspoon
Academy Award-winning actress, producer, and entrepreneur
Reese Witherspoon invites you into her world, where she
infuses the southern style, parties, and traditions she loves
with contemporary flair and charm.
Reese Witherspoon’s grandmother Dorothea always said that
a combination of beauty and strength made southern women
“whiskey in a teacup.” We may be delicate and ornamental
on the outside, she said, but inside we’re strong and fiery.
Reese’s southern heritage informs her whole life, and she
loves sharing the joys of southern living with practically
everyone she meets. Reese loves sharing Dorothea’s most
delicious recipes as well as her favourite southern traditions,
from midnight barn parties to backyard bridal showers,
magical Christmas mornings to rollicking honky-tonks.
It’s easy to bring a little bit of Reese’s world into your home,
no matter where you live. After all, there’s a southern side to
every place in the world, right?

taught him in his remarkable career - and now his 85th year.
One of our best-loved actors Michael Caine has starred in

the classic British movies Alfie, Zulu and The Italian Job to
the Hollywood blockbusting Dark Knight trilogy, Dirty Rotten
Scoundrels, Hannah and Her Sisters and Cider House Rules.
Caine has excelled in every kind of role - with a skill that’s
made it look easy.

Now in his 85th year he wants to share everything he’s
learned. With brilliant new insight into his life and work and

No Spin
By Shane Warne
Everyone knows the story, or thinks they do. The leg-spinner
who rewrote the record books. One of Wisden?s five cricketers
of the twentieth century. A sporting idol across the globe. A
magnet for the tabloids. But the millions of words written and
spoken about Shane Warne since his explosive arrival on the
Test cricket scene in 1992 have only scratched the surface.
The real story has remained untold. In No Spin, Shane sets
the record straight. From his extraordinary family history to his
childhood as a budding Aussie Rules footballer in suburban
Melbourne. From the legendary ‘Gatting ball? to his historymaking
700th Test wicket. From the controversy surrounding
the diuretic pill in South Africa to his high-profile relationship
with Hollywood star Elizabeth Hurley. Nothing is off limits,
and Shane tackles it all with his trademark directness and
humour. These days an incisive, charismatic TV commentator
and analyst, the ‘Sultan of Spin? also lets us in on the
mysterious art of leg-spin bowling, revealing the secrets of
some of his deadliest deliveries.

LIBRARY: Lyttelton Primary School librarian Rita Norris (left) and Ruth Connor sort
through hundreds of donated books as they get ready for the book fair.
Bigger and better
Lyttelton book fair
• By Matt Salmons
A MOUNTAIN of donated
books is growing at
Lyttelton Primary School
in the lead up to its second
biennial book fair.
Organised by parents
from the school’s family
hub, the November 11
event would see thousands
of donated books go up for
sale out of the Lyttelton
Arts Factory.
Lyttelton Primary School
secretary and librarian Rita
Norris said the first book
fair in 2016 had boosted the
library’s stock and allowed
the school to run literary
events over the last two
years.
“It enabled us to top up
with new books as it had
been a bit depleted [after
the merger].”
The 2016 event saw the
library receive about 300
books from the more than
5000 donated, while book
sales raised $5500.
Mrs Norris said it had
meant the library could get
“back up to where it should
be.”
She said the organisers
were “just amazing” and
the school library would
not be where it was without
them.
Family hub member and
organiser Ruth Connor
said the school’s library
was looking “a lot healthier”
after the last book fair.
“But to be honest, the
whole thing needs
overhauling, especially
non-fiction. A lot of that
is 10-years-old and things
have changed.
“We need to keep the collection
exciting for kids.”
She said people could
still donate books to be sold
and organisers hoped to
“have a similar or greater
amount of books this year
and we’re well on the way.”
“If people have good
quality books, absolutely
we’d love them,” Ms Connor
said.
While they would accept
any donated books, not
everything was going to
sell, she said.
“People are always trying
to get rid of their 1980s
microwave cookbooks.”
Ms Connor said the
books were priced low,
adults books for $2 and
children’s books $1.
“People were going home
with a box load of all their
summer reading [last
year],” she said.

Church reopens after restoration
AFTER AN eight-month
restoration, Akaroa’s St Patrick’s
Catholic Church reopened on
Labour Day with Bishop Paul
Martin holding a liturgy of
thanksgiving.
THe $800,000 project included
a full restoration of the church
with major work being done to the
foundations, floor, roof, cladding
on the tower, insulation and
installing wiring throughout the
building. Borer, which had infested
much of the woodwork, was
eradicated.
Also included in the restoration
was the procurement of kauri pews
from the Catholic church in New
Brighton that date back to 1911.

PEOPLE living in
Lyttelton have found
humour in the misspelling
of the port’s name on a
Spreydon street sign.
The sign for Lyttelton
St has been incorrectly
spelled ‘Lyttleton’ at the intersection
with Edinburgh
St.
Former Lyttelton
resident Andrew Massie
spotted the mistake on
Thursday and posted a
photo on the Lyttelton –
Ain’t No Place I’d Rather
Be Facebook page, gaining
a number of laughs and
likes.
“You see it quite frequently
online, people
spelling it incorrectly, but I
was really surprised to see
it on a street sign,” he said.
City council road maintenance
manager Mark
Pinner the sign “will be
corrected.”
“If it is the contractors,
even if it is their subcontractors,
error, they will
pick up the cost of replacement.”
Mr Pinner said the
city council paid by the
number of letters on street
signs, so the cost of the
misspelt sign could be
between $100 and $140.
Mistakes on street signs
were “very infrequent”, Mr
Pinner said.
“There are a lot of
stages in the process, so
potentially the error could
be from when it may have
been requested to simply
what the sign manufacturer
puts in, and even allowing
for spell checking,
names are so individual
that this isn’t a complete
fail safe” Mr Pinner said.
People commented on
Mr Massie’s post, saying
the city council could not
follow Google Maps and
MISTAKE: The
city council
says it will
replace this
incorrect
street sign in
Spreydon.
‘Lyttleton St’ blunder
gets a laugh
Hoon Hay resident
Gary Knight writes in
support of Diamond
Harbour’s Stoddart
Cottage Trust’s recent
Christchurch Civic
Trust award
I read with admiration
the recognition of
Diamond Harbour
Margaret Stoddart cottage
trust in relationship of
awareness of heritage
assets.
To have Christchurch
Civic trust category D
award bestowed on it not
only bears testimony to
the stature of this cottage
trust but the presence of a
nomination for this true
asset from a candid visitor
to the cottage is reflective of
the value and popularity of
this heritage landmark.
As the oldest Diamond
Harbour dwelling, and
birthplace of revered
Canterbury artist Margaret
would have to change
Lyttelton’s name on maps
to suit.
Mr Massie tagged the
city council in his post, but
said he had not received a
response.
“The way the current
council is performing, I’m
not surprised,” he said.
He said he thought
people may assume the
town was named for
being a “little town”. But
it was actually named
after George Lyttelton, a
member of the Canterbury
Association.
In 2016, the city council
had to pay $200 to replace
a sign incorrectly spelt
‘Moorehouse Ave’, and in
2014, a no-stopping sign
in Cathedral Square added
an extra ‘r’, resulting in
‘Catherdral’.
That sign remained in
place for four weeks before
being replaced.
Stoddart the house, museum
and craft shop within
this iconic structure is a
true hub for many both local
and from surrounding
areas.
To further compliment
the ambience it would be
certainly innovative to
adorn the interior with
original Margaret Stoddart
masterpieces.

Our People
Tina Hutchison-Thomas
From Star Wars to wearable art
The colourful garments
seen on stage and screen
are the bread and butter
of Mt Pleasant’s Tina
Hutchison-Thomas.
Matt Salmons caught up
with the World of Wearable
Art New Zealand design
award-winner
Where did you grow up?
I was born in Christchurch
and I’m basically a Cantabrian
through and through. I was here
for my whole life until I went to
Sydney. I did the fashion and
design course at CPIT. That was
a two-year course.
What about your family?
I met my husband Tim when
I was 14 and he was 16. He took
me to my first formal. We dated
for a couple of months and then
went our separate ways. We met
again at a friend’s 20th. We’ve
now got three children, Lily, 13,
Harry, 11, and Maddie, 9. They’re
all creative in their own right.
Lily is more an artist, Harry is
more into music and Maddie
is more into performing arts.
They see my long hours, but they
understand and see my passion.
Hopefully, that can evolve into a
passion for their careers.
What was your first job after
study?
My first job was with the
Southern Ballet as the wardrobe
mistress. It hadn’t had a
wardrobe mistress for ages and
the place was a bit of a wreck. I
was just up for any challenge so I
said ‘yes, I can do it’. The first big
end-of-year show I did required
30 tutus and I had no idea how to
make them. I pulled a tutu apart,
worked out how it was made and
then roped in a whole bunch of
ballet mums to get the job done.
That was my first experience of
a 70-hour week and strangely I
wanted to come back. I think it
was enough to get me hooked.
What do you like about
costume designing?
All my costume skills, I’ve
learned on the job. There’s way
more sowing and handwork than
you’d have in fashion. It’s much
more labour intensive which is
what I enjoy the most.
Where to from there?
There wasn’t a great deal of
costume work in Christchurch
so I jumped on a plane at 21 to
go to Sydney. I hated it, it was
awful. I wanted to go straight
into costume, but I didn’t have
enough experience so I ended up
in retail. I came back and worked
with the Court Theatre for three
years. One of my contacts got
work on Star Wars: Revenge of
the Sith. I put my hand up and
we went back to Sydney for four
years in 2003. That was a massive
eye-opener.
Did you work on any
costumes people would know?
I did Jimmy Smits’ costumes,
he was Bail Organa (in Star
Wars: Revenge of the Sith). I
STUDIO: Tina Hutchison-Thomas at home in her studio with the World of Wearable Art award
she won for her Eye See you Fluffy Kōwhai costume design.
also got to work on the actual
Darth Vader costume and a
bit of work on Keisha Castle-
Hughes’ costume. I was basically
in charge of the silk velvet. It’s
really temperamental. If you’re
making costumes, it’s your
least favourite fabric as it has a
mind of it’s own, it’s expensive
and it’s really hard to get. After
that, I free-lanced at Sydney
Theatre Company and Opera
Australia. I also worked for a
company that made costumes for
the touring show of Phantom of
the Opera in which they sent me
to South Africa and China.
When did you come back to
NZ?
I got pregnant when we were
in Sydney and we had our first
child over there. I got pregnant
again quite quickly and we
came back to Christchurch at
the end of 2006. I worked for a
little bit with Southern Opera
while having another child. I
then ended up back at the Court
Theatre. We’ll probably move
back to Sydney when the kids
grow up, who knows.
Was that when you landed the
job working on New Zealand
film The Stolen?
I got to design that, which was
really exciting as that had been
a life goal for me. I brought my
dear friend Joanna Grenke over
to help. She’s the menswear tailor
at Sydney Theatre Company. We
hired a whole bunch of locals
as well. It was a real challenge
but the Court Theatre was a
great resource and we hired
more costumes from Auckland.
Not only did I design all the
costumes, but I ran the costume
department, cut patterns,
stitched costumes, and worked as
a wardrobe standby. No wonder
I needed a break after that film.
There were so many extras, it
really pushes you to your limits.
I did at least one 100-hour week.
But I knew it would be tough and
I’m always up for a challenge.
Why did you leave the Court
Theatre?
I’d got to a point in my career
where I felt that I wanted the
next challenge, so I left and
have been working in freelance
costuming ever since. Then
WOW came up. I said ‘I’ll give
it a go’. I never thought I was
an arty kind of person, I was
always a purist when it came
to costume. My idea ‘geogami’
came up very quickly and just
evolved as I worked on it and
I got into the final, so that
was really exciting. It was a
great experience and it’s very
addictive. As soon as I came
back I was thinking about what
to do this year.
How was it working without
the constraints of a script?
I found that difficult. When
I’m designing for a show, it’s
much more collaborative. But
designing a costume without
constraints, it was a challenge.
And I really struggled writing
about the piece. For me, there
have always been guidelines, so
that was the hardest part. But
it was different, so that’s why I
liked it.
Where did the idea for this
year’s design come from?
For my entry this year,
I wanted to do something
completely different, which is
why everything was soft and
fluffy. I’d done spikes before.
Last year I saw what the judges
were looking for in the winning
designs. I knew they liked
sparkly detail and interesting use
of fabric. I put them all together
and ended up with the crazy
Fluffy Kōwhai inspired by the
poodle moth.
That’s not a common moth,
where did you hear about it?
One of the sections this year
was ‘under the microscope’.
So I was looking at moths and
butterflies and the poodle moth
caught my eye. I thought what
is that? I hadn’t seen a lot of fur
in other shows so I thought I’d
give it a go. It allowed me to do
both fabric dying and sparkly. I
spent ages doing the eyes, way
longer than I anticipated. The
problem was that I had four
other jobs on at the same time
to finish. I missed the shipping
deadline but my dad and my
step-mum offered to take it to
Nelson. I finished it at 5am and
they picked it up at 8am, it was a
bit of a mission. I’ve done some
long hours, but I’d never done an
all-nighter in my 20-something
years in costuming.
Will you enter next year?
I don’t know. I was just saying
to Tim this morning that maybe
that’s another box ticked for me.
It depends on the workload, but
that doesn’t seem to be a problem
for me, I just keep saying yes to
everything, so we’ll see.

An oldie but a goodie
Ferrymead Rotary’s
Barbara Crooks talks about
one of the club’s earliest
projects and the relevance
it has today
The old saying that things get
better with age certainly applies
to one of Ferrymead Rotary’s
longest-standing projects.
Research coinciding with the
club’s 25 th anniversary celebrations
in September revealed
that one of its earliest projects
was organising an outing for
Bay Harbour senior citizens to
Christchurch’s Botanical Gardens
and the central city.
The trips, which are timed
to take advantage of the spring
flowering, have remained a regular
on Ferrymead Rotary’s calendar.
And this year, in response
to the popularity of the trip, two
groups – 24 senior citizens in
total – were recruited and taken
on different days.
Maree McGovern, from the
Sumner Bays Union Trust,
sourced the participants, and
Rotary organised the transport
and provided the driver and support
crew.
Participants were driven to the
gardens where they tapped into
the one-hour guided tour.
Afterwards, they were shouted
lunch and taken on a tour of the
central city. Songs from a bygone
era resonated as they cruised
around the city’s emerging,
new-look commercial heart; the
Oxford Tce ‘strip’, the justice
precinct, the cinema complex,
residential housing, the proposed
site for the sports centre
and stadium, and other spots of
interest.
Year-on-year feedback has
been the crucial driver for the
continuing success of the trips.
The senior citizen ‘customers’
have been unanimous in attesting
to their enjoyment of the day.
In recent years several have said
this was their first trip to the
central city since the earthquake,
and a number have rated it as
their major outing of the year.
In September around 50 people
gathered at a special cocktail
party at The Tannery to celebrate
Ferrymead Rotary’s quartercentury.
The occasion brought
together current and former
members, friends of the club, and
representatives from the neighbouring
Linwood Woolston,
Lyttelton and Christchurch South
Rotary clubs.
Ferrymead Rotary was formed
in 1993 as a result of a Linwood
Woolston membership drive.
When interest emerged in
forming a new club, Linwood
Woolston changed tack and
sponsored the new Ferrymead
club.
Ferrymead Rotary is
considering options for a
project to mark its 25 years of
involvement and contribution to
its Bay Harbour community.
Sumner claim easy win
• By Matt Salmons
SUMNER HAS reversed the
fortunes of their previous
match to convincingly beat
East Christchurch-Shirley at St
Leonards Park.
Club coach Dan Vann said
Sumner’s bowling contained
Easts to 147 all out, before
reaching 148 with six wickets
remaining.
THis weekend the team will
host old rivals, Merivale.
“We’ve been generally even
with them, but we’ve probably
had the better of them in twothirds
of our games,” Vann said.
Both teams had seen big
changes to their line-up since last
season, he said, so it almost be
like playing a fresh side.
On Saturday, Sumner won
the toss and elected to bowl.
East made a good start with the
opening pair putting on 47 for
the first wicket.
First change bowlers Vann
and debutante Tyler Walker had
immediate success, picking up
two wickets each to bring the
momentum back in Sumner’s
favour at 91 for four.
THe introduction of in-form
spinner Jonny Percasky drove
home that advantage further,
picking up three wickets.
Openers Dean Smith and
Nawid Mohammady finished the
job to have Easts all out for 147
from 39 overs.
In response, Sumner made a

Newton-Vesty after taking their side through to a win.
good start before Easts took four
wickets to have them on 87 for
four as the final batting pair of
Michael Newton-Vesty and Vann
stepped up.
Vann and Newton-Vesty’s
efforts got their side over the line,
hitting 61 runs between them
before the game was called.
“You never know, but we could
have doubled [the runs]. It was
a fairly convincing win,” Vann
said.
He said the win came down
to a good all-around team
performance.
“Everyone chipped in with the
ball and everyone chipped in
SPORTS
with the bat. No one was doing
all the work.”
Sumner’s division three side,
The Mighty, also came away with
a win against the East Shirley
Tridents, finishing 93 all out to
the Tridents 85 all out.
However, feeder team the
Blues, however, could not reach
New Brighton’s 144 runs when
they stepped up to bat. The team
finishing the day on 96 all out.
It’s our

Community Board has taken the
rare step of starting a petition
to figh the city council over
funding.
Signatures are being co lected
in a bid to get funding for a community
facility in Shirley.

on a deal with IAG on February

are waiting for EQC to sign the
agr ement.
“Given that EQC actua ly drafted

$16 mi lion, was rejected by the body

The mediation agr ement
