Call for more road safety<br />

measures on Richmond Hill<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

THIS PHOTO shows why<br />

residents on a hill above Sumner<br />

need a footpath.<br />

New 40km/h speed signs will<br />

be installed on Richmond Hill<br />

Rd this week, but residents say<br />

more still needs to be done to<br />

make the narrow road safer.<br />

Increasing traffic in the area<br />

had increased concern about<br />

driver and pedestrian safety.<br />

Kathy Duncan said residents are<br />

worried about the safety of people<br />

walking or cycling between the<br />

top corner and Cecil Wood Way as<br />

there was no footpath.<br />

“There’s been so many near<br />

misses. Every person who lives<br />

on that road has a story.”<br />

About 18 residents, community<br />

board and residents’ association<br />

members met with city council<br />

traffic and transport staff on<br />

Wednesday to discuss the issue.<br />

Mrs Duncan said a number<br />

of ideas to address concerns<br />

were mooted at the meeting and<br />

council staff said they would<br />

look into them and report back.<br />

“We’ll see what happens, but<br />

we left the meeting feeling quite<br />

positive,” she said.<br />

City council transport planning<br />

and delivery manager<br />

Lynette Ellis said staff were “currently<br />

working through options<br />

to address concerns.”<br />

Darrell Latham said one solution<br />

suggested by residents was a<br />

“rudimentary” gravel pathway<br />

on city council reserve land<br />

alongside Richmond Hill Rd.<br />

“They [city council staff] are<br />

looking for pragmatic solutions<br />

as funding is very limited,” Dr<br />

Latham said.<br />

“Staff are assessing whether<br />

there are any funding options<br />

Another solution was to extend<br />

a track between Richmond<br />

finishing at the bottom corner of<br />

Said resident Jenny Cunningham:<br />

“That seems like a pretty<br />

easy fix to me . . . just build the<br />

walking track completely off the<br />

road.”<br />

Ms Cunningham said such<br />

a track would be popular with<br />

other Sumner residents wanting<br />

to access reserves and cycle<br />

tracks in the area.<br />

EVERY PICTURE tells a story they say,<br />

and on page 1 it is loud and clear.<br />

Residents have been campaigning to<br />

make Richmond Hill Rd safer for sometime.<br />

The speed will be reduced to 40km/h<br />

this week but locals say a tragedy could<br />

happen anytime.<br />

That’s because the road is too narrow and clearly, going by our<br />

photo, vehicles and pedestrians get uncomfortably close.<br />

Says resident Kathy Duncan: “There’s been so many near<br />

misses. Every person who lives on that road has a story.”<br />

Residents and community board members have met with city<br />

council staff and suggested solutions.<br />

Let’s hope the powers that be have a look at our front page.<br />

They’ll then realise how serious the situation is.<br />

Uhtred of Bebbanburg has won back his ancestral home<br />

but, threatened from all sides by enemies both old and new,<br />

he doesn’t have long to enjoy the victory.<br />

In Mercia, rebellion is in the air as King Edward tries to seize<br />

control. In Wessex, rival parties scramble to settle on the identity<br />

of the next king. And across the country invading Norsemen<br />

continue their relentless incursion, ever hungry for land.<br />

Uhtred – a legendary warrior, admired and sought as an ally, feared as an<br />

adversary – finds himself once again torn between his two heritages: fighting on<br />

what he considers the wrong side, cursed by misfortune and tragedy and facing<br />

one of his most formidable enemies. Only the most astute cunning,<br />

the greatest loyalty and the most spectacular courage can save him.<br />

For decades, Uhtred has stood at the intersection between Pagan and Christian,<br />

between Saxon and Viking, between the old world he was born into and the new<br />

world being forged around him. But as the winds of change gather pace, the<br />

pressure on Uhtred as father, as politician and as warrior grows as never before.<br />

Quake survey to help evacuation plan<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

Matthew<br />

Hughes<br />

RESIDENTS LIVING in coastal<br />

areas including Redcliffs and<br />

Sumner, who evacuated the<br />

night of the 2016 Kaikoura<br />

earthquake, are being called to<br />

take part in a major research<br />

project.<br />

Canterbury<br />

University<br />

is aiming to<br />

survey<br />

as many<br />

residents as<br />

possible to<br />

collect data<br />

on the tsunami<br />

evacuation<br />

response<br />

which took<br />

place following the magnitude<br />

7.8 earthquake.<br />

It will focus on residents living<br />

in coastal areas such as New<br />

Brighton, Southshore and the<br />

bays of Banks Peninsula.<br />

Dr Matthew Hughes, one of<br />

the academics overseeing the<br />

project, said the survey isn’t<br />

about asking for opinions on the<br />

night, but what residents did in<br />

response to the tsunami hazard.<br />

The survey is part of a wider<br />

research project led by GNS<br />

Science called Quicker and Safer<br />

Tsunami Evacuation through<br />

agent-based modelling.<br />

Mr Hughes said the data collected<br />

from the survey is going<br />

to be interesting in itself.<br />

“But the really crucial part of<br />

this is this is going to start informing<br />

sophisticated computer<br />

modelling of population movements<br />

when they evacuate,” he<br />

said.<br />

The models will simulate people<br />

Closed steps to Te Ana Marina<br />

before Christmas, city council<br />

manager planning and delivery<br />

steps were closed earlier this<br />

month due to concerns they<br />

were a risk to public safety after a<br />

recent assessment. A burst water<br />

main had undermined the steps<br />

in July. Mrs Ellis said details of<br />

how the steps would be repaired<br />

were being worked through with<br />

contractors but expected work to<br />

begin in the coming weeks.<br />

First sail for<br />

historic tug<br />

hits delay<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

OPERATORS OF the historic<br />

tug Lyttelton say their first<br />

passenger cruise will not happen<br />

until January, a month later than<br />

they had hoped.<br />

Tug Lyttelton Preservation<br />

Society head stoker Mike Bruce<br />

said the marine surveyor who<br />

oversaw the tug’s sea trials on<br />

<strong>October</strong> 4 had given the society<br />

a list of items to address before<br />

they could carry passengers.<br />

Though the society had funding<br />

to address most of it, the<br />

timeframe pushed the date back<br />

from December.<br />

“It’s nothing major, It’s just<br />

time and effort,” Mr Bruce said.<br />

The list included the need to<br />

add another emergency exit and<br />

update flotation devices, fire<br />

extinguishers, signage and communication<br />

equipment.<br />

The most difficult item to address<br />

on the list was the requirement<br />

for the lifeboat to be at least<br />

2.8m long and capable of travelling<br />

at 6kn for two hours.<br />

Currently, the society used<br />

a rowboat, Mr Bruce said. He<br />

said the society would request<br />

an exemption for the lifeboat<br />

requirement.”<br />

School demolition under way<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

DEMOLITION OF the old<br />

Redcliffs School buildings<br />

on Main Rd is expected to be<br />

finished in three weeks.<br />

Work began on site last week.<br />

Principal Rose McInerney said<br />

Scope Group contractors were<br />

demolishing the hall and removing<br />

asbestos last week.<br />

“The kids are really interested<br />

in it and they’re keeping an eye<br />

on it because they live close by.”<br />

She said pupils would be allowed<br />

on site on November 13 to<br />

see the “biggest, most dramatic<br />

parts” get demolished.<br />

“It’s really cool the kids can be<br />

involved,” she said.<br />

Meanwhile, the Workforce<br />

and Education Select Committee<br />

continues its investigation into<br />

the Friends of Redcliffs Park’s<br />

fight to return the school to the<br />

Main Rd site.<br />

Group member Chris Doudney<br />

said it was “very sad” the<br />

old school buildings were being<br />

demolished.<br />

He said the committee had<br />

received evidence from the<br />

Ministry of Education and the<br />

Friends of Redcliffs Park had sent<br />

a response to that last week.<br />

Once the committee had completed<br />

its investigation, it would<br />

give a recommendation to Parliament.<br />

There was no set timeline<br />

for how long that process could<br />

take.<br />

Once that recommendation<br />

was given, the Government<br />

would have 60 days to respond<br />

as to whether it would take any<br />

action.<br />

“I think it’s very unfortunate<br />

that the Ministry has gone on<br />

with the demolition without<br />

waiting for the select committee’s<br />

recommendation,” Mr Doudney<br />

said.<br />

Mrs McInerney said the demolition<br />

would resonate most with<br />

the school’s final year group,<br />

as they had been new entrants<br />

during the February 22, 2011,<br />

earthquake.<br />

She said the demolition of the<br />

hall was an especially emotional<br />

time because it had been halfowned<br />

by the school community.<br />

The school had tried to have<br />

Contractors<br />

the demolition<br />

of the former<br />

Redcliffs<br />

School hall.<br />

the hall moved to the new school<br />

site in Redcliffs Park, but due to<br />

its proximity to the cliffs, it was<br />

deemed too dangerous.<br />

“But it’s also great because<br />

all of the insurance money has<br />

meant we can have a lovely<br />

new hall [at the new school] . .<br />

. similar in size to the one we<br />

had.”<br />

The new school was expected<br />

to open in early 2020.<br />

Woman hit by golf ball;<br />

call for warning signs<br />

• By Julia Evans<br />

THE CITY council is<br />

investigating ways to stop<br />

people being hit by golf<br />

balls on a Ferrymead<br />

walking track.<br />

It comes after a woman<br />

was hit by wayward ball<br />

from the Ferrymead Golf<br />

course and taken to hospital<br />

on <strong>October</strong> 13.<br />

Head of parks Andrew<br />

Rutledge said: “Staff have<br />

spoken to the club regarding<br />

the incident and are<br />

considering options to<br />

reduce the likelihood of a<br />

similar incident occurring<br />

again.”<br />

Heathcote Ward city<br />

councillor Sara Templeton<br />

said it was a “serious” issue.<br />

She was contacted by the<br />

mother of the woman involved<br />

who wants warning<br />

signage installed.<br />

“I have put in a request<br />

through the normal city<br />

council processes, but<br />

also raised it at the board<br />

meeting in case others had<br />

heard about the incident<br />

and to let them know that<br />

I’d started the process,” she<br />

said.<br />

Still Pedalling!<br />

PROXIMITY: City council staff are investigating<br />

ways to prevent walkers being hit by balls near<br />

the Ferrymead Golf course after a woman was hit<br />

recently.<br />

Cr Templeton raised the<br />

issue and called for signs<br />

to be installed at<br />

the last Linwood-<br />

Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board<br />

meeting.<br />

But said she would<br />

be following up with<br />

city council staff.<br />

“It’s a popular<br />

track which winds<br />

along the lower reaches of<br />

the Opawaho Heathcote<br />

River from near Ferrymead<br />

Park, past Ferrymead Golf<br />

and Calder Green Reserve,”<br />

she said.<br />

She said there were lots of<br />

Sara<br />

Templeton<br />

people walking with dogs<br />

or riding bikes.<br />

Ferrymead Golf<br />

owner Carl Lawson<br />

said it’s the first<br />

time in the 11 years<br />

he’s been there that<br />

someone has been<br />

hit.<br />

However, he said<br />

there are already<br />

signs warning of a<br />

golf course and it wouldn’t<br />

hurt the city council to install<br />

some warning of balls.<br />

“It’s bloody awful that<br />

she got hit, it would be nice<br />

if they put some signs up,”<br />

he said.<br />

Further clarification<br />

sought on pile driving<br />

impact on dolphins<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

THE BANKS Peninsula<br />

Community Board is<br />

seeking more information<br />

from the Lyttelton<br />

Port Company after it<br />

responded to questions<br />

about efforts to mitigate<br />

the impact on Hector’s<br />

dolphins from pile driving.<br />

Said community board<br />

member Felix Dawson:<br />

“We’ve simply asked<br />

for the answers to the<br />

questions that we asked,<br />

several we haven’t received<br />

answers to.”<br />

Last week, questions<br />

from were sent to LPC<br />

through Christchurch<br />

City Holdings Ltd, the<br />

owner and operator of the<br />

port, on how the negative<br />

impacts to dolphins<br />

from pile driving<br />

work on the new<br />

cruise berth would<br />

be mitigated.<br />

THey were sent<br />

alongside a city<br />

council request for<br />

an update on the<br />

piling operation and<br />

marine mammal<br />

monitoring to date.<br />

THis week the<br />

community board<br />

requested a number of<br />

questions be re-sent to<br />

LPC, seeking sound<br />

recording and noise level<br />

data, the marine mammal<br />

management plan and<br />

information on marine<br />

observers.<br />

A city council<br />

spokeswoman said any<br />

further questions would<br />

be co-ordinated through<br />

the office of chief executive<br />

Karleen Edwards.<br />

Hector’s and Māui<br />

Dolphin Defenders<br />

committee member<br />

Genevieve Robinson told<br />

the community board on<br />

Monday that “raw data”<br />

was needed.<br />

“I’ve received the<br />

information that LPC<br />

has provided<br />

. . . there’s<br />

some useful<br />

information but<br />

there’s some<br />

key information<br />

missing,” Ms<br />

Robinson said.<br />

In response to<br />

the initial questions,<br />

LPC chief executive<br />

Peter Davie said<br />

LPC was working with some<br />

of the country’s “leading<br />

marine mammal and<br />

acoustics experts” to minimise<br />

the effects of pile driving on<br />

dolphins.<br />

Mitigation steps included<br />

18 months of recorded<br />

data from eight passive<br />

acoustic detectors and four<br />

hydrophones, a monitored<br />

exclusion zone that if a<br />

dolphin enters, work will<br />

cease and “soft starts” to<br />

allow dolphins time to<br />

Genevieve<br />

Robinson ​<br />

evacuate the harbour when<br />

work starts.<br />

Mr Davie said<br />

monitoring of noise<br />

levels and the presence of<br />

dolphins would be ongoing.<br />

LPC’s marine mammal<br />

management plan, to be<br />

provided by a marine<br />

mammal expert from the<br />

Cawthron Institute, would<br />

be publicly available once<br />

completed next month.<br />

Noise level data from landbased<br />

piling would also be<br />

released publicly, once it<br />

had been analysed.<br />

Ms Robinson said the<br />

revised MMMP and sound<br />

recording data was needed<br />

sooner, as piling was due to<br />

start next month.<br />

“THat might provide<br />

us with only a threeday<br />

window to provide<br />

feedback,” she said.<br />

Mr Dawson said he<br />

found LPC’s responses<br />

“inconsistent,” as they<br />

had “made a point” of<br />

saying the MMMP would<br />

be available for feedback,<br />

which would be considered<br />

by the company.<br />

“How are they going to<br />

respond to it, let alone hear<br />

it?”<br />

Timeball to reopen on Friday<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

SEVEN YEARS after being<br />

almost completely destroyed,<br />

Lyttelton’s restored Timeball<br />

tower will officially reopen to the<br />

public on Friday.<br />

After sustaining damage in the<br />

February 22, 2011, earthquake,<br />

the semi-deconstructed station<br />

was then damaged beyond repair<br />

during an aftershock later that<br />

year.<br />

Heritage New Zealand director<br />

southern region Sheila Watson<br />

said the restoration of the tower<br />

and flagpole was finished in June,<br />

but the area remained closed as<br />

landscaping was finished.<br />

After an opening ceremony,<br />

people will be able to visit the site<br />

during daylight hours, while at<br />

night the tower will be lit up. Flag<br />

displays will also feature during<br />

the year.<br />

OPENING: Lyttelton’s Timeball will reopen to<br />

the public on Friday after the final touches are<br />

completed on the restoration project.<br />

Made In Scotland<br />

My Grand Adventures in a Wee Country<br />

By Billy Connolly<br />

All roads lead home. ‘After my knighthood was announced a<br />

woman from the BBC came to Glasgow to interview me. We<br />

sat down in a lovely hotel in a nice part of town, and she hit<br />

me with her first question- “This must mean a lot to you, with<br />

you coming from nothing? “I looked at her, and I laughed<br />

“I did? nae come from nothing, “I told her. “I come from<br />

something. “I grew up in the tenements of post-war Glasgow.<br />

I am very proud to be working class, and especially a<br />

working-class Glaswegian who has worked in the shipyards.<br />

I come from the working class. And, most of all, I come<br />

from Scotland. Scotland is a unique and wonderful place. Its<br />

national motto says a lot about it- Nemo me impunelacessit.<br />

A decent translation might be- ‘By all means punch me in the<br />

nose but prepare yourself for a kick in the arse? I did? nae<br />

come from nothing- I come from Scotland. And this book is<br />

about why I will always be happy and proud that I do.?<br />

Whiskey in a Teacup<br />

What Growing Up in the South Taught Me About Life,<br />

Love, and Baking Biscuits By reese Witherspoon<br />

Academy Award-winning actress, producer, and entrepreneur<br />

Reese Witherspoon invites you into her world, where she<br />

infuses the southern style, parties, and traditions she loves<br />

with contemporary flair and charm.<br />

Reese Witherspoon’s grandmother Dorothea always said that<br />

a combination of beauty and strength made southern women<br />

“whiskey in a teacup.” We may be delicate and ornamental<br />

on the outside, she said, but inside we’re strong and fiery.<br />

Reese’s southern heritage informs her whole life, and she<br />

loves sharing the joys of southern living with practically<br />

everyone she meets. Reese loves sharing Dorothea’s most<br />

delicious recipes as well as her favourite southern traditions,<br />

from midnight barn parties to backyard bridal showers,<br />

magical Christmas mornings to rollicking honky-tonks.<br />

It’s easy to bring a little bit of Reese’s world into your home,<br />

no matter where you live. After all, there’s a southern side to<br />

every place in the world, right?<br />

Blowing the Bloody Doors Off<br />

And Other Lessons in Life By Michael Caine<br />

With over 100 movies to his credit over six decades,<br />

Hollywood legend and British national treasure Michael Caine<br />

shares the wisdom, stories, insight and skills that life has<br />

taught him in his remarkable career - and now his 85th year.<br />

One of our best-loved actors Michael Caine has starred in<br />

a huge range of films - including all-time favourites - from<br />

the classic British movies Alfie, Zulu and The Italian Job to<br />

the Hollywood blockbusting Dark Knight trilogy, Dirty Rotten<br />

Scoundrels, Hannah and Her Sisters and Cider House Rules.<br />

Caine has excelled in every kind of role - with a skill that’s<br />

made it look easy.<br />

He knows what success takes - he’s made it to the top of<br />

his profession from the toughest beginning. But as he says<br />

‘Small parts can lead to big things. And if you keep doing<br />

things right, the stars will align when you least expect it.’<br />

Now in his 85th year he wants to share everything he’s<br />

learned. With brilliant new insight into his life and work and<br />

with his wonderful gift for story, this is Caine at his wise and<br />

entertaining best.<br />

No Spin<br />

By Shane Warne<br />

Everyone knows the story, or thinks they do. The leg-spinner<br />

who rewrote the record books. One of Wisden?s five cricketers<br />

of the twentieth century. A sporting idol across the globe. A<br />

magnet for the tabloids. But the millions of words written and<br />

spoken about Shane Warne since his explosive arrival on the<br />

Test cricket scene in 1992 have only scratched the surface.<br />

The real story has remained untold. In No Spin, Shane sets<br />

the record straight. From his extraordinary family history to his<br />

childhood as a budding Aussie Rules footballer in suburban<br />

Melbourne. From the legendary ‘Gatting ball? to his historymaking<br />

700th Test wicket. From the controversy surrounding<br />

the diuretic pill in South Africa to his high-profile relationship<br />

with Hollywood star Elizabeth Hurley. Nothing is off limits,<br />

and Shane tackles it all with his trademark directness and<br />

humour. These days an incisive, charismatic TV commentator<br />

and analyst, the ‘Sultan of Spin? also lets us in on the<br />

mysterious art of leg-spin bowling, revealing the secrets of<br />

some of his deadliest deliveries.<br />

Bigger and better<br />

Lyttelton book fair<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

A MOUNTAIN of donated<br />

books is growing at<br />

Lyttelton Primary School<br />

in the lead up to its second<br />

biennial book fair.<br />

Organised by parents<br />

from the school’s family<br />

hub, the November 11<br />

event would see thousands<br />

of donated books go up for<br />

sale out of the Lyttelton<br />

Arts Factory.<br />

Lyttelton Primary School<br />

secretary and librarian Rita<br />

Norris said the first book<br />

fair in 2016 had boosted the<br />

library’s stock and allowed<br />

the school to run literary<br />

events over the last two<br />

years.<br />

“It enabled us to top up<br />

with new books as it had<br />

been a bit depleted [after<br />

the merger].”<br />

The 2016 event saw the<br />

library receive about 300<br />

books from the more than<br />

5000 donated, while book<br />

sales raised $5500.<br />

Mrs Norris said it had<br />

meant the library could get<br />

“back up to where it should<br />

be.”<br />

She said the organisers<br />

were “just amazing” and<br />

the school library would<br />

not be where it was without<br />

them.<br />

Family hub member and<br />

organiser Ruth Connor<br />

said the school’s library<br />

was looking “a lot healthier”<br />

after the last book fair.<br />

“But to be honest, the<br />

whole thing needs<br />

overhauling, especially<br />

non-fiction. A lot of that<br />

is 10-years-old and things<br />

have changed.<br />

“We need to keep the collection<br />

exciting for kids.”<br />

She said people could<br />

still donate books to be sold<br />

and organisers hoped to<br />

“have a similar or greater<br />

amount of books this year<br />

and we’re well on the way.”<br />

“If people have good<br />

quality books, absolutely<br />

we’d love them,” Ms Connor<br />

said.<br />

While they would accept<br />

any donated books, not<br />

everything was going to<br />

sell, she said.<br />

“People are always trying<br />

to get rid of their 1980s<br />

microwave cookbooks.”​<br />

Ms Connor said the<br />

books were priced low,<br />

adults books for $2 and<br />

children’s books $1.<br />

“People were going home<br />

with a box load of all their<br />

summer reading [last<br />

year],” she said.<br />

AFTER AN eight-month<br />

Labour Day with Bishop Paul<br />

Martin holding a liturgy of<br />

thanksgiving.<br />

THe $800,000 project included<br />

a full restoration of the church<br />

with major work being done to the<br />

foundations, floor, roof, cladding<br />

on the tower, insulation and<br />

installing wiring throughout the<br />

building. Borer, which had infested<br />

much of the woodwork, was<br />

eradicated.<br />

Also included in the restoration<br />

was the procurement of kauri pews<br />

from the Catholic church in New<br />

Brighton that date back to 1911.<br />

News<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

PEOPLE living in<br />

Lyttelton have found<br />

humour in the misspelling<br />

of the port’s name on a<br />

Spreydon street sign.<br />

The sign for Lyttelton<br />

St has been incorrectly<br />

spelled ‘Lyttleton’ at the intersection<br />

with Edinburgh<br />

St.<br />

Former Lyttelton<br />

resident Andrew Massie<br />

spotted the mistake on<br />

Thursday and posted a<br />

photo on the Lyttelton –<br />

Ain’t No Place I’d Rather<br />

Be Facebook page, gaining<br />

a number of laughs and<br />

likes.<br />

“You see it quite frequently<br />

online, people<br />

spelling it incorrectly, but I<br />

was really surprised to see<br />

it on a street sign,” he said.<br />

City council road maintenance<br />

manager Mark<br />

Pinner the sign “will be<br />

corrected.”<br />

“If it is the contractors,<br />

even if it is their subcontractors,<br />

error, they will<br />

pick up the cost of replacement.”<br />

Mr Pinner said the<br />

city council paid by the<br />

number of letters on street<br />

signs, so the cost of the<br />

between $100 and $140.<br />

Mistakes on street signs<br />

were “very infrequent”, Mr<br />

Pinner said.<br />

“There are a lot of<br />

stages in the process, so<br />

potentially the error could<br />

be from when it may have<br />

been requested to simply<br />

what the sign manufacturer<br />

puts in, and even allowing<br />

for spell checking,<br />

names are so individual<br />

that this isn’t a complete<br />

fail safe” Mr Pinner said.<br />

Hoon Hay resident<br />

Gary Knight writes in<br />

support of Diamond<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong>’s Stoddart<br />

Cottage Trust’s recent<br />

Christchurch Civic<br />

Trust award<br />

I read with admiration<br />

the recognition of<br />

Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

Margaret Stoddart cottage<br />

trust in relationship of<br />

awareness of heritage<br />

assets.<br />

To have Christchurch<br />

Civic trust category D<br />

award bestowed on it not<br />

only bears testimony to<br />

the stature of this cottage<br />

trust but the presence of a<br />

nomination for this true<br />

asset from a candid visitor<br />

to the cottage is reflective of<br />

the value and popularity of<br />

this heritage landmark.<br />

As the oldest Diamond<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> dwelling, and<br />

birthplace of revered<br />

Canterbury artist Margaret<br />

would have to change<br />

Lyttelton’s name on maps<br />

to suit.<br />

Mr Massie tagged the<br />

city council in his post, but<br />

said he had not received a<br />

response.<br />

“The way the current<br />

council is performing, I’m<br />

not surprised,” he said.<br />

He said he thought<br />

people may assume the<br />

town was named for<br />

being a “little town”. But<br />

it was actually named<br />

after George Lyttelton, a<br />

member of the Canterbury<br />

Association.<br />

In 2016, the city council<br />

had to pay $200 to replace<br />

a sign incorrectly spelt<br />

‘Moorehouse Ave’, and in<br />

2014, a no-stopping sign<br />

in Cathedral Square added<br />

an extra ‘r’, resulting in<br />

‘Catherdral’.<br />

That sign remained in<br />

place for four weeks before<br />

being replaced.<br />

Stoddart the house, museum<br />

and craft shop within<br />

this iconic structure is a<br />

true hub for many both local<br />

and from surrounding<br />

areas.<br />

To further compliment<br />

the ambience it would be<br />

certainly innovative to<br />

adorn the interior with<br />

original Margaret Stoddart<br />

masterpieces.

Our People<br />

Tina Hutchison-Thomas<br />

From Star Wars to wearable art<br />

The colourful garments<br />

seen on stage and screen<br />

are the bread and butter<br />

of Mt Pleasant’s Tina<br />

Hutchison-Thomas.<br />

Matt Salmons caught up<br />

with the World of Wearable<br />

Art New Zealand design<br />

award-winner<br />

Where did you grow up?<br />

I was born in Christchurch<br />

and I’m basically a Cantabrian<br />

through and through. I was here<br />

for my whole life until I went to<br />

Sydney. I did the fashion and<br />

design course at CPIT. That was<br />

a two-year course.<br />

What about your family?<br />

I met my husband Tim when<br />

I was 14 and he was 16. He took<br />

me to my first formal. We dated<br />

for a couple of months and then<br />

went our separate ways. We met<br />

again at a friend’s 20th. We’ve<br />

now got three children, Lily, 13,<br />

Harry, 11, and Maddie, 9. They’re<br />

all creative in their own right.<br />

Lily is more an artist, Harry is<br />

more into music and Maddie<br />

is more into performing arts.<br />

They see my long hours, but they<br />

understand and see my passion.<br />

Hopefully, that can evolve into a<br />

passion for their careers.<br />

What was your first job after<br />

study?<br />

My first job was with the<br />

Southern Ballet as the wardrobe<br />

mistress. It hadn’t had a<br />

wardrobe mistress for ages and<br />

the place was a bit of a wreck. I<br />

was just up for any challenge so I<br />

said ‘yes, I can do it’. The first big<br />

end-of-year show I did required<br />

30 tutus and I had no idea how to<br />

make them. I pulled a tutu apart,<br />

worked out how it was made and<br />

then roped in a whole bunch of<br />

ballet mums to get the job done.<br />

That was my first experience of<br />

a 70-hour week and strangely I<br />

wanted to come back. I think it<br />

was enough to get me hooked.<br />

What do you like about<br />

costume designing?<br />

All my costume skills, I’ve<br />

learned on the job. There’s way<br />

more sowing and handwork than<br />

you’d have in fashion. It’s much<br />

more labour intensive which is<br />

what I enjoy the most.<br />

Where to from there?<br />

There wasn’t a great deal of<br />

costume work in Christchurch<br />

so I jumped on a plane at 21 to<br />

go to Sydney. I hated it, it was<br />

awful. I wanted to go straight<br />

into costume, but I didn’t have<br />

enough experience so I ended up<br />

in retail. I came back and worked<br />

with the Court Theatre for three<br />

years. One of my contacts got<br />

work on Star Wars: Revenge of<br />

the Sith. I put my hand up and<br />

we went back to Sydney for four<br />

years in 2003. That was a massive<br />

eye-opener.<br />

Did you work on any<br />

costumes people would know?<br />

I did Jimmy Smits’ costumes,<br />

he was Bail Organa (in Star<br />

Wars: Revenge of the Sith). I<br />

STUDIO: Tina Hutchison-Thomas at home in her studio with the World of Wearable Art award<br />

she won for her Eye See you Fluffy Kōwhai costume design.<br />

also got to work on the actual<br />

Darth Vader costume and a<br />

bit of work on Keisha Castle-<br />

Hughes’ costume. I was basically<br />

in charge of the silk velvet. It’s<br />

really temperamental. If you’re<br />

making costumes, it’s your<br />

least favourite fabric as it has a<br />

mind of it’s own, it’s expensive<br />

and it’s really hard to get. After<br />

that, I free-lanced at Sydney<br />

Theatre Company and Opera<br />

Australia. I also worked for a<br />

company that made costumes for<br />

the touring show of Phantom of<br />

the Opera in which they sent me<br />

to South Africa and China.<br />

When did you come back to<br />

NZ?<br />

I got pregnant when we were<br />

in Sydney and we had our first<br />

child over there. I got pregnant<br />

again quite quickly and we<br />

came back to Christchurch at<br />

the end of 2006. I worked for a<br />

little bit with Southern Opera<br />

while having another child. I<br />

then ended up back at the Court<br />

Theatre. We’ll probably move<br />

back to Sydney when the kids<br />

grow up, who knows.<br />

Was that when you landed the<br />

job working on New Zealand<br />

film The Stolen?<br />

I got to design that, which was<br />

really exciting as that had been<br />

a life goal for me. I brought my<br />

dear friend Joanna Grenke over<br />

to help. She’s the menswear tailor<br />

at Sydney Theatre Company. We<br />

hired a whole bunch of locals<br />

as well. It was a real challenge<br />

but the Court Theatre was a<br />

great resource and we hired<br />

more costumes from Auckland.<br />

Not only did I design all the<br />

costumes, but I ran the costume<br />

department, cut patterns,<br />

stitched costumes, and worked as<br />

a wardrobe standby. No wonder<br />

I needed a break after that film.<br />

There were so many extras, it<br />

really pushes you to your limits.<br />

I did at least one 100-hour week.<br />

But I knew it would be tough and<br />

I’m always up for a challenge.<br />

Why did you leave the Court<br />

Theatre?<br />

I’d got to a point in my career<br />

where I felt that I wanted the<br />

next challenge, so I left and<br />

have been working in freelance<br />

costuming ever since. Then<br />

WOW came up. I said ‘I’ll give<br />

it a go’. I never thought I was<br />

an arty kind of person, I was<br />

always a purist when it came<br />

to costume. My idea ‘geogami’<br />

came up very quickly and just<br />

evolved as I worked on it and<br />

I got into the final, so that<br />

was really exciting. It was a<br />

great experience and it’s very<br />

addictive. As soon as I came<br />

back I was thinking about what<br />

to do this year.<br />

How was it working without<br />

the constraints of a script?<br />

I found that difficult. When<br />

I’m designing for a show, it’s<br />

much more collaborative. But<br />

designing a costume without<br />

constraints, it was a challenge.<br />

And I really struggled writing<br />

about the piece. For me, there<br />

have always been guidelines, so<br />

that was the hardest part. But<br />

it was different, so that’s why I<br />

liked it.<br />

Where did the idea for this<br />

year’s design come from?<br />

For my entry this year,<br />

I wanted to do something<br />

completely different, which is<br />

why everything was soft and<br />

fluffy. I’d done spikes before.<br />

Last year I saw what the judges<br />

were looking for in the winning<br />

designs. I knew they liked<br />

sparkly detail and interesting use<br />

of fabric. I put them all together<br />

and ended up with the crazy<br />

Fluffy Kōwhai inspired by the<br />

poodle moth.<br />

That’s not a common moth,<br />

where did you hear about it?<br />

One of the sections this year<br />

was ‘under the microscope’.<br />

So I was looking at moths and<br />

butterflies and the poodle moth<br />

caught my eye. I thought what<br />

is that? I hadn’t seen a lot of fur<br />

in other shows so I thought I’d<br />

give it a go. It allowed me to do<br />

both fabric dying and sparkly. I<br />

spent ages doing the eyes, way<br />

longer than I anticipated. The<br />

problem was that I had four<br />

other jobs on at the same time<br />

to finish. I missed the shipping<br />

deadline but my dad and my<br />

step-mum offered to take it to<br />

Nelson. I finished it at 5am and<br />

they picked it up at 8am, it was a<br />

bit of a mission. I’ve done some<br />

long hours, but I’d never done an<br />

all-nighter in my 20-something<br />

years in costuming.<br />

Will you enter next year?<br />

I don’t know. I was just saying<br />

to Tim this morning that maybe<br />

that’s another box ticked for me.<br />

It depends on the workload, but<br />

that doesn’t seem to be a problem<br />

for me, I just keep saying yes to<br />

everything, so we’ll see.<br />

CHOSEN: Tina Hutchison-Thomas’s award winning design on<br />

New beginnings...<br />

Alyssum Health & Beauty operated<br />

in Sumner since 2007 until everything<br />

changed post earthquakes. By 2013,<br />

manager Sonya Barrie needed to pause<br />

and take stock of where she was going. “I<br />

woke up one morning and couldn’t move<br />

– it felt like the fuel line had been cut.<br />

With time to rest and reflect, my lifelong<br />

passion for natural medicine surfaced as a<br />

clear direction for me to follow.”<br />

Now with a Degree in Natural Medicine,<br />

and lovely new premises Sonya is able to<br />

provide naturopathic consultations and<br />

wellness coaching as well as skincare<br />

and beauty services under the banner of<br />

Alyssum Natural Health & Beauty.<br />

Naturopathic consultations: We can<br />

help with a wide range of health problems.<br />

We allocate up to 90 minutes at your<br />

first appointment, listening to your story<br />

and gathering information to create an<br />

holistic picture of your situation. After<br />

analyzing this information we formulate a<br />

therapeutic strategy using a combination<br />

of herbal medicine, nutrition, massage<br />

and lifestyle recommendations. We work<br />

with you to help you achieve your health<br />

goals.<br />

Rhythmical Massage Therapy is a special<br />

form of bodywork, arising from Rudolf<br />

Steiner’s Anthroposophic approach to<br />

illness and healing. People most commonly<br />

feel a stronger sense of self, and a feeling of<br />

wellbeing and of being more ‘in control’<br />

regardless of what life brings.<br />

Dr Hauschka facials are beautifully<br />

and sensitively crafted. Warm, aromatic,<br />

compresses, luxurious products, and<br />

nurturing touch revitalize and gently<br />

correct imbalances in the skin, resulting<br />

in a radiant complexion and state of<br />

relaxation.<br />

All our beauty treatments are carried<br />

out with dignity and a caring, nurturing<br />

quality and we aim to create a little bit of<br />

bliss and tranquillity for you.<br />

to one of Ferrymead Rotary’s<br />

longest-standing projects.<br />

Research coinciding with the<br />

club’s 25 th anniversary celebrations<br />

in September revealed<br />

that one of its earliest projects<br />

was organising an outing for<br />

<strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> senior citizens to<br />

Christchurch’s Botanical Gardens<br />

and the central city.<br />

The trips, which are timed<br />

to take advantage of the spring<br />

flowering, have remained a regular<br />

on Ferrymead Rotary’s calendar.<br />

And this year, in response<br />

to the popularity of the trip, two<br />

groups – 24 senior citizens in<br />

total – were recruited and taken<br />

on different days.<br />

Maree McGovern, from the<br />

Sumner <strong>Bay</strong>s Union Trust,<br />

sourced the participants, and<br />

Rotary organised the transport<br />

and provided the driver and support<br />

crew.<br />

Participants were driven to the<br />

gardens where they tapped into<br />

the one-hour guided tour.<br />

Afterwards, they were shouted<br />

lunch and taken on a tour of the<br />

central city. Songs from a bygone<br />

era resonated as they cruised<br />

around the city’s emerging,<br />

new-look commercial heart; the<br />

Oxford Tce ‘strip’, the justice<br />

precinct, the cinema complex,<br />

residential housing, the proposed<br />

site for the sports centre<br />

and stadium, and other spots of<br />

interest.<br />

Year-on-year feedback has<br />

been the crucial driver for the<br />

continuing success of the trips.<br />

The senior citizen ‘customers’<br />

have been unanimous in attesting<br />

to their enjoyment of the day.<br />

In recent years several have said<br />

this was their first trip to the<br />

central city since the earthquake,<br />

and a number have rated it as<br />

their major outing of the year.<br />

In September around 50 people<br />

gathered at a special cocktail<br />

party at The Tannery to celebrate<br />

Ferrymead Rotary’s quartercentury.<br />

The occasion brought<br />

together current and former<br />

members, friends of the club, and<br />

representatives from the neighbouring<br />

Linwood Woolston,<br />

Lyttelton and Christchurch South<br />

Rotary clubs.<br />

Ferrymead Rotary was formed<br />

in 1993 as a result of a Linwood<br />

Woolston membership drive.<br />

When interest emerged in<br />

forming a new club, Linwood<br />

Woolston changed tack and<br />

sponsored the new Ferrymead<br />

club.<br />

Ferrymead Rotary is<br />

considering options for a<br />

project to mark its 25 years of<br />

involvement and contribution to<br />

its <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> community.​<br />

Sumner claim easy win<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

SUMNER HAS reversed the<br />

fortunes of their previous<br />

match to convincingly beat<br />

East Christchurch-Shirley at St<br />

Leonards Park.<br />

Club coach Dan Vann said<br />

Sumner’s bowling contained<br />

Easts to 147 all out, before<br />

reaching 148 with six wickets<br />

remaining.<br />

THis weekend the team will<br />

host old rivals, Merivale.<br />

“We’ve been generally even<br />

with them, but we’ve probably<br />

had the better of them in twothirds<br />

of our games,” Vann said.<br />

Both teams had seen big<br />

changes to their line-up since last<br />

season, he said, so it almost be<br />

like playing a fresh side.<br />

On Saturday, Sumner won<br />

the toss and elected to bowl.<br />

East made a good start with the<br />

opening pair putting on 47 for<br />

the first wicket.<br />

First change bowlers Vann<br />

and debutante Tyler Walker had<br />

immediate success, picking up<br />

two wickets each to bring the<br />

momentum back in Sumner’s<br />

favour at 91 for four.<br />

THe introduction of in-form<br />

spinner Jonny Percasky drove<br />

home that advantage further,<br />

picking up three wickets.<br />

Openers Dean Smith and<br />

Nawid Mohammady finished the<br />

job to have Easts all out for 147<br />

from 39 overs.<br />

In response, Sumner made a<br />

WINNERS: Sumner’s final batting pair Dan Vann and Michael<br />

Newton-Vesty after taking their side through to a win. ​<br />

good start before Easts took four<br />

wickets to have them on 87 for<br />

four as the final batting pair of<br />

Michael Newton-Vesty and Vann<br />

stepped up.<br />

Vann and Newton-Vesty’s<br />

efforts got their side over the line,<br />

hitting 61 runs between them<br />

before the game was called.<br />

“You never know, but we could<br />

have doubled [the runs]. It was<br />

a fairly convincing win,” Vann<br />

said.<br />

He said the win came down<br />

to a good all-around team<br />

performance.<br />

“Everyone chipped in with the<br />

ball and everyone chipped in<br />

SPORTS<br />

with the bat. No one was doing<br />

all the work.”<br />

Sumner’s division three side,<br />

The Mighty, also came away with<br />

a win against the East Shirley<br />

Tridents, finishing 93 all out to<br />

the Tridents 85 all out.<br />

However, feeder team the<br />

Blues, however, could not reach<br />

New Brighton’s 144 runs when<br />

they stepped up to bat. The team<br />

finishing the day on 96 all out.<br />

It’s our<br />

45th<br />

Anniversary<br />

year!<br />

THE PAPANUI-I nes<br />

Community Board has taken the<br />

rare step of starting a petition<br />

to figh the city council over<br />

funding.<br />

Signatures are being co lected<br />

in a bid to get funding for a community<br />

facility in Shirley.<br />

It comes after the city council<br />

removed funding for the centre<br />

pla ned for Shirley Rd, near the<br />

intersection with Hi ls Rd. This<br />

was the site of the former community<br />

centre, which was badly<br />

damaged in the February 2,<br />

20 1, earthquake.<br />

The removal o funding<br />

prompted community board<br />

chairwoman Ali Jones to threaten<br />

to stan down, citing it as her “die<br />

in the ditch” project.<br />

Ms Jone said the board’s role<br />

is to represen the community,<br />

and by gathering signatures from<br />

residents, it was fulfi ling that<br />

role.<br />

THE OWNERS of Sumner’s Cave<br />

Rock Apartments ar expecting the<br />

Earthquake Commi sion to sign-off<br />

on a se tlement agr emen this w ek.<br />

Body corporate chairman Mike<br />

White said the group had gone<br />

into mediation with IAG and EQC<br />

on February 20, and signed off<br />

on a deal with IAG on February<br />

2 – coincidenta ly seven years<br />

to the day after the February 2,<br />

20 1, earthquake. However, they<br />

are waiting for EQC to sign the<br />

agr ement.<br />

“Given that EQC actua ly drafted<br />

the agr ement, there’ l be no<br />

problem with them doing that.”<br />

The apartment suffere damage<br />

in the February and June, 20 1,<br />

earthquakes and were demolished in<br />

late 2012. In 2016, IAG’s offer of the<br />

difference betw en indemnity value,<br />

$10 mi lion, and the sum insured,<br />

$16 mi lion, was rejected by the body<br />

corporate.<br />

The mediation agr ement<br />

prevented Mr White from disclosing<br />

the se tlement amount, but he said it<br />

involved the two parties paying “a bit<br />

more money than they’d wanted to<br />

earlier.”<br />
