$1.2m plan for school site<br />

Football fields<br />

and skate park<br />

in draft design<br />

• By Louis Day<br />

PLANS FOR a new $1.2 million<br />

park on the old Redcliffs School<br />

site have been released.<br />

The city council has proposed<br />

converting the site into a park<br />

to compensate for the loss<br />

of Redcliffs Park, which will<br />

accommodate the new school.<br />

The draft landscape plan is<br />

open for public consultation<br />

until December 17. Once<br />

consultation has finished, the<br />

Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board will make a<br />

recommendation on the park’s<br />

future to the city council.<br />

It would be called Te Papa<br />

Kura, a name gifted by local iwi.<br />

Papa means park and kura can<br />

mean both school and red.<br />

One junior and one<br />

intermediate football field,<br />

a toilet, drinking fountain,<br />

additional furniture and new<br />

signage will all be added to the<br />

park.<br />

The existing playground,<br />

furniture, car park and a<br />

community building will be kept<br />

on the site.<br />

The site is also being<br />

considered as a possible location<br />

for a skate park as part of the<br />

<strong>Bay</strong>s Area Skate Project.<br />

of the new site being 643 sq m<br />

smaller.<br />

“The new park will offer<br />

Real Estate with Integrity<br />

the same sport and recreation<br />

opportunities as the former park<br />

– sports fields, a playground,<br />

a community building, toilets<br />

and car parking. We will also be<br />

adding a perimeter path.”<br />

Ms Russell said the city council<br />

was aiming to start and finish<br />

construction next year, with the<br />

football fields predicted to be<br />

ready before winter.<br />

However, Friends of Redcliffs<br />

Park spokesman Chris Doudney<br />

said the relocation of the park<br />

and the school was “totally<br />

pointless”.<br />

“The old school site is on the<br />

same side of the road to about<br />

80 per cent of its pupils so kids<br />

don’t have to cross the main road.<br />

It’s also higher than the new site<br />

which is a flood plain.”<br />

Mr Doudney also has issues<br />

with the plans for the new park.<br />

“I’m glad they are keeping a<br />

couple of the trees but I think<br />

they should keep a few more. I<br />

thought that they should move<br />

one of the playing fields a bit<br />

further away from the other one<br />

so there is room to keep another<br />

tree or two and to get a path<br />

between the two playing fields.”<br />

Mr Doudney said the best<br />

thing the city council could do<br />

was to move the school back to its<br />

old site and leave Redcliffs Park<br />

where it was.<br />

THE WHEELS of progress are turning<br />

very quickly at the old Redcliffs School site.<br />

We report on page 1 today the plans for<br />

the site, which include football fields and<br />

landscaping.<br />

It will be good use of the contentious<br />

land.<br />

Redcliffs doesn’t have a great deal of public space, so at least<br />

sport and other activities can be played and held on the site.<br />

It will be no consolation to Friends of Redcliffs Park which<br />

has been trying without luck to stop the school being resited<br />

there. That plan, too, is full steam ahead.<br />

Also today, we have the outcome of the eco-burial saga in<br />

Diamond Habrour (page 3) and former reporter Matt Salmons<br />

Widow’s hope fades<br />

• By Louis Day<br />

ANN THORNTON’S hopes<br />

of being buried alongside her<br />

husband are fading following the<br />

city council’s unchanged stance<br />

on pre-purchasing graves.<br />

The city council decided<br />

against altering its Cemeteries<br />

Bylaw and Handbook that prevents<br />

people from pre-purchasing<br />

graves at its meeting last week.<br />

Mrs Thronton’s husband,<br />

Jim, was the first to be buried in<br />

Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong>’s eco-burial<br />

site last <strong>November</strong>. Three of the<br />

12 plots have been filled since the<br />

eco-burial site opened and more<br />

than 70 people have signalled an<br />

interest in being buried on the<br />

site.<br />

In spite of fears the cemetery<br />

would fill up, Mrs Thorton remained<br />

optimistic.<br />

“There was the suggestion of<br />

a possibility for the opportunity<br />

to revisit the issue when more<br />

research is completed. With more<br />

research available I am hopeful<br />

that the council will arrive at an<br />

informed and compassionate<br />

solution to the issue.”<br />

Deputy Mayor Andrew Turner<br />

was not happy with the decision.<br />

“The particular area where I<br />

would be keen for us to show<br />

more compassion would be<br />

where when one partner has<br />

already been buried at the green<br />

burial plot in Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

and the ability to reserve a plot<br />

for that other partner.”<br />

Thirty-two of the 40 submissions<br />

made during the Cemeteries<br />

Bylaw and Handbook review<br />

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

2019<br />

ON THE DOMAIN LINCOLN 2 MARCH 2019<br />

after no change to burial policy<br />

hearing were made in relation to<br />

the Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> eco-burial<br />

site.<br />

Cr Turner said the demand<br />

from the community was too<br />

great to ignore.<br />

“I understand that prepurchasing<br />

would lead to a<br />

position where we would need<br />

to create more space for green<br />

burials which may well be the<br />

HOPE: It<br />

is looking<br />

increasingly<br />

unlikely<br />

that Ann<br />

Thornton<br />

will be able<br />

to be buried<br />

next to her<br />

late husband<br />

Jim, or even<br />

in the same<br />

cemetery.<br />

right outcome.”<br />

City councillor Mike Davidson<br />

said there already a capacity issue<br />

with cemeteries.<br />

“One of the biggest issues<br />

with pre-purchasing plots is that<br />

everyone is taking them and then<br />

we have got these cemeteries<br />

with lots of vacant plots in there<br />

that have been pre-purchased for<br />

decades.”<br />

DOG RESTRICTIONS<br />

The Banks Peninsula Community<br />

Board has requested city council<br />

staff to enforce dog restrictions on<br />

Akaroa Beach. Dogs prohibited<br />

from the beach between 9am and<br />

7pm. Board member Janis Haley<br />

said there was nothing worse than<br />

big dogs disrupting children on<br />

the beach. Akaroa used to have a<br />

dog ranger and Ms Haley hoped<br />

the council could reinstate one<br />

to stop people taking dogs to the<br />

beach.<br />

NEW PETROL STATION<br />

A new NPD self-serve petrol<br />

station is expected to be open<br />

in Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> early next<br />

year. The new petrol station will<br />

front of the On the Spot dairy.<br />

Four fire trucks and 20 firefighters<br />

were called to the Sumner<br />

about 9pm after a fire started in<br />

the building’s electrical wiring<br />

and spread up the wall. Sumner<br />

Volunteer Fire Brigade chief<br />

officer Daryl Sayer said it took<br />

about 45min to put the 2m<br />

fire out. The fire disrupted the<br />

Confusion<br />

over new<br />

road sign<br />

A NEW road sign has been a<br />

source of confusion for Governors<br />

<strong>Bay</strong> residents.<br />

The electric sign tells motorists<br />

to watch their speed leaving Governors<br />

<strong>Bay</strong>, about 400m before the<br />

speed limit increases to 60km/h on<br />

Dyers Pass Rd.<br />

Governors <strong>Bay</strong> resident John<br />

Bannock said it would have made<br />

more sense to have the sign facing<br />

the other way.<br />

“It seems a bit crazy because it’s<br />

facing the traffic that is leaving<br />

Governors <strong>Bay</strong> and then if you’re<br />

leaving via Dyers Pass Rd you<br />

go up about 300m and you hit a<br />

60km/h speed sign saying you can<br />

go faster anyway.”<br />

Mr Bannock said the sign was<br />

of no benefit to the residents of<br />

Governors <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />

City council Transport Operations<br />

Manager Steffan Thomas,<br />

however, said the city council had<br />

no plans to move it.<br />

“When determining the best<br />

locations for the sign within our<br />

context, staff considered where<br />

and in which direction speeding<br />

was most prevalent, and where it<br />

was most important for safety that<br />

speeding is targeted.”<br />

‘We’ve got the best bar in town’<br />

• By Louis Day<br />

THE SUMNER Tennis and<br />

Squash Club’s renovated courts<br />

and a brand new bar are the<br />

best in town, president Phil<br />

Loughnan says.<br />

The club reopened at the<br />

weekend after six months of<br />

being closed and members were<br />

able to see the renovated tennis<br />

and squash courts, changing<br />

rooms, kitchen and bar.<br />

Mr Loughnan said the new<br />

bar made it one of the best sports<br />

clubs to have a beer at in the city.<br />

“Now that we have the new<br />

sliding doors which open out, the<br />

new bar, the leaners that look on<br />

to the tennis courts, it’s the best<br />

bar in bloody Christchurch,” he<br />

said.<br />

The club suffered significant<br />

damage following the February<br />

22, 2011, earthquake with cracks<br />

stretching across the tennis<br />

courts.<br />

The 1970s building was also<br />

beginning to show its age.<br />

“In the 70s when they built<br />

buildings I think they just<br />

chucked them together, for the<br />

last 50 odd years it never had<br />

anything done to it. It was an<br />

untidy dirty old place, we needed<br />

to start again,” Mr Loughnan<br />

said.<br />

The renovated building has<br />

BLISS: Club president Phil Loughnan and members Royce Mckean and Annemarie Loughnan in<br />

the new bar.<br />

been fitted with insulation<br />

and the relocation of the stairs<br />

has opened up more space to<br />

allow for table tennis and other<br />

activities.<br />

Mr Loughnan encouraged<br />

people to go in and find out for<br />

themselves whether the club had<br />

the best bar in the city.<br />

“Saturday afternoon at 2pm<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

we have our open day. Anyone is<br />

welcome to come along and play<br />

some tennis, so if you want to<br />

join up you can come down on<br />

Saturday,” Mr Loughnan said.<br />

Port Hills tracks add to fire threat<br />

• By Louis Day<br />

UNAUTHORISED cycle and<br />

walking tracks in the Port Hills<br />

could contribute to the start of<br />

another disastrous fire.<br />

Lyttelton resident Wendy<br />

Everingham said the city council<br />

desperately needs to adopt a<br />

policy that stopped people from<br />

creating their own cycle and<br />

walking tracks across the Port<br />

Hills.<br />

“If the water is on an ordinary<br />

surface, it is dispersing through<br />

that land mass<br />

more evenly,<br />

but as soon as<br />

you open up the<br />

land with tracks,<br />

you create little<br />

streams and<br />

water bypasses<br />

Wendy<br />

Everingham<br />

parts of the<br />

reserve and you<br />

get some places<br />

which are drier than others.”<br />

Mrs Everingham said she<br />

was appalled by the number of<br />

unauthorised tracks that were<br />

being made on the Port Hills.<br />

“Up on the Urumau Reserve I<br />

saw someone had come through<br />

and cut down quite a lot of trees,<br />

so they were opening up an<br />

area that was supposed to be for<br />

forest.”<br />

Mrs Everingham said she had<br />

also noticed an unauthorised<br />

track which went through<br />

Steadfast land and the<br />

Whakaraupo Reserve.<br />

City council acting head<br />

of parks Kate Russell said<br />

the illegal track that entered<br />

Steadfast land and Whakaraupo<br />

Reserve had been closed and<br />

rangers were investigating other<br />

tracks in the Port Hills.<br />

“We have out signs reading<br />

‘track closed, no access’,” she<br />

said.<br />

“We have discussed with local<br />

community-users and reserve<br />

committees that the track is not<br />

to be used and developed any<br />

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

further. The track was mown<br />

with a weed-eater so it will be<br />

allowed to grass over. Fencing<br />

work may be carried out to<br />

further exclude access to the<br />

track.”<br />

Ms Russell warned that some<br />

of the unauthorised tracks<br />

ventured into areas of potential<br />

rockfall risk.<br />

“This [Steadfast and<br />

Whakaraupo Reserve] track did<br />

follow a route that would take<br />

people into a zone of rockfall<br />

that has not been mitigated or<br />

had recent inspections.”<br />

Ms Russell said a geotechnical<br />

report would need to be<br />

FIRE RISK:<br />

Unauthorised<br />

walking tracks<br />

could cause<br />

another fire in<br />

the Port Hills.<br />

undertaken to determine how<br />

great the risk of rockfall was in<br />

those areas.<br />

Ms Russell asked people to<br />

consider the consequences of<br />

their actions before forming<br />

their own tracks.<br />

“If people carry out<br />

unauthorised work, there is<br />

the risk of unsafe tracks<br />

being developed as well<br />

as serious impacts to the<br />

environment which can take<br />

many years to repair. We<br />

invite people to contact the<br />

council or their local reserve<br />

committee to provide ideas on<br />

developments.”<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

35-year bach<br />

leases a<br />

step closer<br />

TAYLORS MISTAKE bach<br />

owners have moved a step closer<br />

to securing 35-year licences.<br />

The city council accepted the<br />

recommendations from the Taylors<br />

Mistake working party, led by<br />

city councillor Sara Templeton, to<br />

grant licences to baches of heritage<br />

value.<br />

Thirteen of the baches assessed<br />

have been classed as moderate to<br />

high risk from natural hazards.<br />

This means owners will have to<br />

mitigate the hazards out of their<br />

own pocket.<br />

Taylor Mistake Association<br />

president Brent Gilpin remained<br />

optimistic any risk of damage<br />

could be mitigated. He was satisfied<br />

with the 35-year licences as<br />

long as there was the option to renew<br />

them. “This is not about just<br />

managing them in my lifetime,<br />

I want them to be used for generations.<br />

If the licence was for 35<br />

years and that was it, that would<br />

be a disappointing outcome.”<br />

The city council plan for the<br />

baches is out for public consultation<br />

until January 14. A hearings<br />

panel will then consider submissions<br />

before making a recommendation<br />

to the council next year.<br />

Principal goes for swim at school fair<br />

Event raises $30k in spite of weather<br />

• By Louis Day<br />

REDCLIFFS SCHOOL still<br />

managed to raise more than<br />

$30,000 at its fair on Sunday<br />

in the face of wet and windy<br />

weather.<br />

School principal Rose<br />

McInerney, who went for a swim<br />

in the dunk tank, said there was<br />

still more money to come.<br />

“We had two amazing cubby<br />

houses at the fair and because we<br />

couldn’t paint them at the fair<br />

because of the weather, they still<br />

have to be finished and auctioned<br />

off on Trade Me, so they will<br />

potentially bring in another<br />

$5000,” said Mrs McInerney.<br />

More than 2000 people<br />

attended the fair and were treated<br />

to a wide variety of sideshows and<br />

activities, such as mini golf, dunk<br />

the teacher, mini jeep trucks and<br />

a horizontal bungy.<br />

Pupils opened the fair by<br />

performing kapa haka and<br />

singing choir songs.<br />

“Our (pupils) were incredible,<br />

I think they got about 4min of<br />

singing without rain and sung<br />

their little hearts out for another<br />

20min in the rain.”<br />

Mrs McInerney said the money<br />

raised would go a long way in<br />

improving the experience of<br />

pupils at the school.<br />

“Some of it will go towards<br />

additional teaching resources to<br />

provide extra opportunity for<br />

our students and some of it is<br />

definitely going to go towards the<br />

outdoor areas and seating for our<br />

new school.”<br />

Mrs McInerney said the fair<br />

could have quite easily been<br />

a failure if it were not for the<br />

resilience of the community.<br />

“For our school community<br />

and the wider community to get<br />

behind the school fair and come<br />

along out in the wind and rain, I<br />

just think it speaks volumes about<br />

who they are.”<br />

SPLASH: Redcliffs School pupils celebrate after dunking their principal Rose McInerney in the<br />

dunk tank. (Below) – The pupils then jumped into the tank for a swim.<br />

FUN: Mini<br />

jeeps, mini golf,<br />

horizontal bungy<br />

and bouncy<br />

on offer at the fair.<br />

First week on the job and<br />

baby takes her first steps<br />

VITTORIA HAS taken<br />

her first independent steps.<br />

And all five of them were<br />

away from me.<br />

I don’t mean that in<br />

some metaphorical sense,<br />

they were literally away<br />

from me and she hasn’t<br />

walked again . . . yet.<br />

While we played in the<br />

hall, my wife Laura called<br />

her over and she turned<br />

away from me and walked<br />

the half metre over to her<br />

mum.<br />

Laura’s proud as punch<br />

and I’m super-excited<br />

about what this means for<br />

my time as a stay-at-homedad.<br />

However, I’m still<br />

jealous that all five of her<br />

steps so far have been away<br />

from me. Dumb, huh?<br />

Luckily, I did not have<br />

time to spend moping –<br />

<strong>November</strong> 13 was B-Day.<br />

My first official stay-athome-dad<br />

day.<br />

It was like D-Day, except<br />

without the guns, the<br />

soldiers, the beach landing<br />

or other adults.<br />

I think I did really well,<br />

but it showcased what I<br />

think will be a hurdle for<br />

me.<br />

I’d had a couple of<br />

training days over the<br />

weekend as Laura went<br />

out with friends and to<br />

organise a few things<br />

before starting back at<br />

work.<br />

On the Friday, I took<br />

Vittoria for a walk, got a<br />

slice of pizza and chased<br />

some ducks.<br />

All good stuff in lieu of<br />

baby times at the library,<br />

which would’ve been on if<br />

it wasn’t Show Day.<br />

However, the weather<br />

last week put walks out<br />

of the question and there<br />

were still no free activities<br />

on nearby.<br />

It forced me to think of<br />

something to do. Before I<br />

could have just followed<br />

Laura’s routine.<br />

But that’s just it, it’s<br />

Laura’s routine.<br />

Now that I’m in charge<br />

(in theory, Vittoria tends<br />

to dispute that) on the<br />

home front, organising<br />

outings and thinking up<br />

things to do is on me.<br />

VITTORIA<br />

& Matt<br />

In stereotypical male<br />

fashion, I decided on a<br />

trip to get some bits to do<br />

some repairs at home – fix<br />

all Vittoria’s broken bibs<br />

using hammered in snap<br />

fasteners.<br />

But I wonder if I’ll<br />

manage to keep conjuring<br />

ideas to keep us occupied<br />

before I hit a wall of sorts<br />

and spend every day<br />

there’s no activity at home<br />

in my pyjamas being hit in<br />

the head with toys.<br />

More to the point, I<br />

hope those ideas can<br />

include other grown-ups<br />

so I can sneak in the odd<br />

conversation that doesn’t<br />

include the phrases “please<br />

don’t cry” and “eat that” or<br />

“the cat doesn’t like being<br />

climbed on.”<br />

Along with a good dose<br />

of clever software engineering,<br />

the answer is a simulated<br />

At a fraction of the price<br />

of a normal x-ray control<br />

panel, the device has been<br />

created by staff at Christchurch<br />

Hospital and Ara<br />

Institute of Canterbury.<br />

It will allow radiology<br />

students to be able to<br />

practice x-ray techniques<br />

in a safe, radiation-free environment<br />

in the Manawa<br />

The health and education<br />

facility has a simulation<br />

only see during placements.<br />

able to design and produce<br />

More than<br />

1000 signatures<br />

on cafe petition<br />

• By Louis Day<br />

THE PETITION to extend the<br />

building approval at the Godley<br />

House site currently occupied by<br />

Dark Star Ale House and Cafe<br />

has received more than 1000<br />

signatures.<br />

Statutory building approval for<br />

the cafe building, the equivalent<br />

of a building and resource consent,<br />

was obtained by a previous<br />

owner through emergency earthquake<br />

legislation.<br />

That approval expired in April<br />

but was extended to June 2021.<br />

The petition on change.org calls<br />

for the sites statutory building approval<br />

to be extended “until such<br />

time as new services are built on<br />

the Godley House site” to attract<br />

a new business to take over from<br />

the Dark Star when it closes in<br />

March.<br />

Dark Star co-owner Donna<br />

Richardson said she and her husband<br />

had tried to sell the business,<br />

but the limited time remaining<br />

on the site’s building approval<br />

put potential buyers off. She said<br />

the signatures showed the community<br />

wanted another cafe to<br />

take over from the Dark Star.<br />

Mrs Richardson plans to<br />

present the petition to the Banks<br />

Peninsula Community Board<br />

within the next couple of months.<br />

City2Surf to celebrate 45 years<br />

STAR MEDIA will celebrate<br />

45 years since participants in<br />

the City2Surf hit the ground<br />

running.<br />

Since 1975, Star Media’s<br />

City2Surf, one of the South<br />

Island’s largest participation<br />

events, has brought thousands<br />

of people together for fun and<br />

fitness.<br />

On March 24, City2Surf will<br />

celebrate its 45th anniversary.<br />

A lot has changed since the<br />

event’s humble beginnings.<br />

However, it still remains first<br />

and foremost a fun run.<br />

Originally, the City2Surf<br />

would start in Cathedral Square<br />

and end at New Brighton beach.<br />

Later, the finish line was<br />

changed to QE II stadium.<br />

In 2011, following the<br />

earthquake, the event had to be<br />

cancelled as parts of the eastern<br />

route were broken.<br />

Now the start line for the<br />

14km event is at Centennial Park<br />

and the Sport Canterbury 6km<br />

event begins at Hansen Park,<br />

Opawa.<br />

Both events finish at the<br />

Ferrymead playing fields with<br />

FREE entry given to participants<br />

into Ferrymead Historic Park.<br />

Over the years, City2Surf<br />

has helped to burn more than<br />

184,730,000 calories, says event<br />

mark 45 years since runners and walkers took off from the<br />

start line at the first ever City2Surf. PHOTO: RACHEL SLOAN<br />

“The amount of kilometres<br />

run during this event is enough<br />

to run around the world 120<br />

times,” he said.<br />

Entries to participate in<br />

the 2019 City2Surf open on<br />

The Star Media 14km event<br />

suitable for all runners and<br />

walkers of all fitness types.<br />

Participants can choose to<br />

either take part individually or<br />

At this year’s event, there were<br />

more than 170 team entries,<br />

including teams of doctors,<br />

construction works, accountants<br />

and scientists.<br />

GREAT READS INSTORE NOW<br />

Becoming<br />

by Michelle Obama<br />

In a life filled with meaning and accomplishment, Michelle Obama<br />

has emerged as one of the most iconic and compelling women<br />

of our era. As First Lady of the United States of America-the first<br />

African-American to serve in that role-she helped create the most<br />

welcoming and inclusive White House in history, while also<br />

establishing herself as a powerful advocate for women and girls<br />

in the U.S. and around the world, dramatically changing the ways<br />

that families pursue healthier and more active lives, and standing<br />

with her husband as he led America through some of its most<br />

harrowing moments. In her memoir, a work of deep reflection<br />

and mesmerizing storytelling, Michelle Obama invites readers<br />

into her world, chronicling the experiences that have shaped<br />

her-from her childhood on the South Side of Chicago to her years<br />

as an executive balancing the demands of motherhood and work,<br />

to her time spent at the world’s most famous address. Warm,<br />

wise, and revelatory, Becoming is the deeply personal reckoning<br />

of a woman of soul and substance who has steadily defied<br />

expectations-and whose story inspires us to do the same.<br />

Houses of Aotearoa<br />

by Andrew Patterson<br />

In Maori culture, architecture is approached as a construction<br />

of beliefs: a building must emulate and amplify personalities,<br />

hopes and aspirations, becoming the physical expression of<br />

those who inhabit it. These ideas and others are the inspirations<br />

behind the house projects of New Zealand architect Andrew<br />

Patterson, who has been designing houses and civic projects<br />

in the country for over thirty years and was awarded the New<br />

Zealand Institute of Architects 2017 Gold Medal. This book<br />

showcases seventeen of Patterson’s recent houses, in some of the most dramatic locations in New Zealand,<br />

from stunning seascape retreats to hillside cabins. Each house reveals how Patterson’s architecture responds<br />

to the region’s breathtaking landscapes to tell the story of the country’s cultural history and to create a sense<br />

of place and belonging. This fully illustrated, large-format overview is interspersed with thematic sections that<br />

present Patterson’s key influences and the culture and lifestyles of New Zealand more broadly, particularly<br />

Maori language, history and mythology.<br />

Homebody<br />

A Guide to Creating Spaces you Never Want to Leave<br />

by Joanna Gaines<br />

In Homebody, Joanna Gaines walks you through how to create<br />

a home that reflects the personalities and stories of the people<br />

who live there. Using examples from her own farmhouse as well<br />

as a range of other homes, this comprehensive guide will help<br />

you assess your priorities and instincts, as well as your likes and<br />

dislikes, with practical steps for navigating and embracing your<br />

authentic design style. Room by room, Homebody gives you an<br />

in-depth look at how these styles are implemented as well as how<br />

to blend the looks you’re drawn to in order to create spaces that<br />

feel distinctly yours. A removable design template at the back of<br />

the book offers a step-by-step guide to planning and sketching out<br />

your own design plans. The insight shared in Homebody will instill<br />

in you the confidence to thoughtfully create spaces you never want<br />

to leave.<br />

The Great Cave Rescue<br />

The extraordinary story of the Thai boy soccer team<br />

trapped in a cave for 18 days<br />

by James Massoda<br />

Keen to go exploring after soccer practice, the boys of the Wild Boars<br />

soccer team ignored the sign at the cave entrance warning visitors not<br />

to enter during the monsoon season. What followed was a high-stakes<br />

international mission that very nearly didn’t succeed. The ordeal riveted<br />

millions around the world. First came the awful news that twelve Thai<br />

boys, aged 11 to 17, and their young coach were missing. Then the<br />

flickering video of the huddle of anxious and hungry boys found by a pair<br />

of British divers nine days later. But the most difficult part was yet to come.<br />

Monsoon rains had raised the water level in the cave system, and the<br />

boys were trapped in an air pocket, surrounded by rising muddy water,<br />

over two kilometres from the cave entrance. None of them knew how to<br />

dive. Expert British, Australian, American, Chinese and other international<br />

divers joined the Thai Navy SEALs and hundreds of local volunteers to<br />

mount one of the most risky and complex rescue operations the world<br />

has ever seen. Australian doctor Richard Harris and his dive partner, Craig<br />

100-YEARS: Dorothy Perkins (middle in red) marked her 100th birthday on Friday<br />

with family who travelled from Dunedin, Invercargill, Tauranga and England.<br />

Sumner centenarian<br />

celebrates with family<br />

DOROTHY Perkins<br />

celebrated her 100th<br />

birthday on Friday.<br />

She was joined by family<br />

and friends from Dunedin,<br />

Invercargill, Tauranga and<br />

as far away as England at<br />

Edith Cavell Lifecare and<br />

Village in Sumner.<br />

Miss Perkins received<br />

letters congratulating<br />

her from the Queen, Port<br />

Hills MP Ruth Dyson and<br />

several people living on<br />

Stewart Island. She was the<br />

district nurse on Stewart<br />

Island from 1965-1972,<br />

where she would look after<br />

seasick ferry passengers,<br />

newborn babies, the elderly,<br />

and accident victims.<br />

Miss Perkins became<br />

famous throughout the<br />

community for driving<br />

what relatives described as<br />

a “green army jeep” to see<br />

patients across the island.<br />

Her cousin Robert<br />

Overton said Miss Perkins<br />

was often on call 24 hours<br />

a day as she was the only<br />

nurse on the island.<br />

“She had to be a bit of<br />

everything there. There<br />

wasn’t even a doctor on the<br />

island.”<br />

Before she was the<br />

district nurse on Stewart<br />

Island, Miss Perkins<br />

worked at St Helen’s<br />

Hospital in Sydenham, Dee<br />

St Maternity Hospital in<br />

Invercargill and was also<br />

matron at the Lumsden<br />

Maternity Centre.<br />

After seven years<br />

of service on Stewart<br />

Island, Miss Perkins<br />

retired in Christchurch<br />

but continued to care for<br />

family and friends.<br />

“Dot has been the lady<br />

who has moved where the<br />

need has been to look after<br />

people. She looked after<br />

both my wife’s parents and<br />

my parents before they<br />

passed away,” Mr Overton<br />

said.<br />

Miss Perkins was driving<br />

people to church, getting<br />

her own groceries and<br />

looking after herself in<br />

her Redcliffs home until<br />

Christmas last year, when<br />

she moved to Edith Cavell<br />

Lifecare and Village.<br />

Mr Overton said Miss<br />

Perkins would always put<br />

the needs of other people<br />

before her own. “Dot never<br />

wanted to be a worry. If she<br />

fell at two in the morning<br />

she would wait till six to<br />

call the buzzer. One day<br />

she had a fall in the garden<br />

so she shuffled into a bush<br />

and did some weeding<br />

while she waited for help<br />

to arrive. She’s not one to<br />

cause a fuss.”<br />

Now<br />

New manager for Health <strong>Harbour</strong> plan<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

GOVERNORS BAY resident<br />

Karen Banwell has been<br />

appointed manager of the Whaka<br />

Ora Healthy <strong>Harbour</strong> plan.<br />

The final plan, which was<br />

launched in March, sets out<br />

an aspirational vision for<br />

the harbour to restore the<br />

ecological and cultural health of<br />

Whakaraupō/Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

from the mountains to the sea.<br />

Dr Banwell started in the role<br />

this month. She will be based at<br />

Rapaki Marae, but will also have<br />

the opportunity to spend time<br />

with each partner organisation.<br />

However, her main time will be<br />

out among the community.<br />

Whaka Ora Healthy <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

governance group chairwoman<br />

Yvette Couch-Lewis said<br />

community involvement was<br />

important to the five partners<br />

– Environment Canterbury,<br />

Te Hapū o Ngāti Wheke, Te<br />

Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu, the city<br />

council, and the Lyttelton Port<br />

Company.<br />

ECan zone delivery manager<br />

Paul Hulse said Dr Banwell<br />

would be an asset to the plan<br />

implementation team.<br />

“She comes with a wealth<br />

of experience within plan<br />

implementation and has great<br />

connections with people in the<br />

harbour already,” he said.<br />

Dr Banwell has previously<br />

worked for city council and<br />

ECan as a senior strategy adviser,<br />

but more recently worked as a<br />

strategic planning advisor at<br />

Regenerate Christchurch.<br />

She is currently chairwoman of<br />

the Governors <strong>Bay</strong> Community<br />

Association, a trustee of the Avon<br />

Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust<br />

NEW ROLE: Whaka Ora<br />

Healthy <strong>Harbour</strong> programme<br />

manager Karen Banwell<br />

(left), with Whaka Ora<br />

Healthy <strong>Harbour</strong> partnership<br />

chairwoman Yvette Couch-<br />

Lewis, were gifted a painting<br />

depicting the touchstone<br />

species laid out in the plan<br />

by Lyttelton Primary School<br />

students.<br />

and recently completed a PhD<br />

in geography on community<br />

resilience.<br />

Dr Banwell said she could not<br />

wait to start her new role.<br />

“I was sent the job description<br />

by multiple people who said this<br />

is written for you.”<br />

“This job was pretty much<br />

a culmination of my work<br />

experience and what I love to do<br />

and I’m committed to working<br />

with the harbour community<br />

for ecological and cultural<br />

outcomes,” Dr Banwell said.<br />

Dr Banwell’s appointment<br />

was officially announced at<br />

Lyttelton Primary School on<br />

Thursday.<br />

Sumner woman in new baby theatre<br />

BABIES AND theatre are not<br />

usually two things that are put<br />

together.<br />

In fact, any parent who have<br />

taken a baby to a performance<br />

know it can be challenging at<br />

best and a disaster at worst.<br />

Turning that whole idea on<br />

its head is Sumner’s Hannah<br />

Wheeler, Burwood’s Melanie<br />

Luckman and Strowan’s Amy<br />

Straker.<br />

The three performers will<br />

perform their show Up And<br />

Away, which is designed<br />

especially for pre-walking<br />

babies in New Brighton and<br />

Phillipstown.<br />

The show will be staged<br />

through the newly launched<br />

Cubbin Theatre Company.<br />

The company aims to develop<br />

genuine theatre works for<br />

children under the age of five.<br />

Each performance will<br />

last about 30-40min with an<br />

opportunity for families to stay<br />

and play at the end.<br />

The show will also be taking<br />

place in a carefully crafted tent.<br />

“Our vision is of a world where<br />

high-quality art is as integral to<br />

early childhood as the<br />

playground and as accessible,”<br />

Luckman said.<br />

She said it has been great<br />

working with the city council’s<br />

Enliven Places Project Fund for<br />

this tour.<br />

Luckman said with the<br />

MAGICAL: Hannah Wheeler and Amy Straker performing in<br />

their show Up and Away –which is designed especially for<br />

pre-walking babies. ​<br />

funding’s help, it could offer the<br />

show for $5 for a baby and adult<br />

together.<br />

The show is informed by<br />

neuroscientific research and has<br />

been developed in consultation<br />

with a speech and language<br />

therapist through a series of<br />

rehearsal workshops with babies.<br />

Wheeler was working at LATT<br />

Children’s Theatre and living in<br />

South Korea when she saw her<br />

first baby theatre performance.<br />

“It was five years ago and what<br />

I experienced has stuck with me<br />

ever since. I am really excited<br />

about bringing high quality,<br />

respectful and intelligent theatre<br />

to children in Christchurch,” she<br />

said.<br />

Up and Away runs Sunday,<br />

Monday and Tuesday at The<br />

Old School Te Kura Tawhito<br />

on Hawke St in New Brighton<br />

and December 6 and 7 at the<br />

Phillipstown Hub on 39 Nursery<br />

Rd. Bookings can be made<br />

SEVENTY descendants of<br />

Samuel Manson, who was<br />

known as “head of the bay”,<br />

recently gathered at the stone<br />

cottage in Orton Bradley<br />

Park to celebrate their ancestor.<br />

Samuel Manson, who<br />

was believed to be the first<br />

carpenter in Christchurch,<br />

built the original cottage<br />

in 1848. After a seven-year<br />

restoration process following<br />

the February 22, 2011,<br />

earthquake, the cottage<br />

reopened its doors to the<br />

public in May.<br />

Great great grandson<br />

of Samuel, Max Manson,<br />

presented a portrait of the<br />

carpenter to the Orton<br />

Bradley Park Board<br />

chairman Simon Mortlock.<br />

Mr Manson spoke of the<br />

pride which the Mansons<br />

have in the history of<br />

pioneers in the family. That<br />

also included Jean Manson,<br />

who mothered 17 children.<br />

Mr Manson also paid<br />

tribute to his cousin Janet<br />

O’Loughlan, who organised<br />

the day with her niece,<br />

Robyn Cody, printed a<br />

booklet y and organised<br />

displays of old photographs<br />

and other memorabilia in the<br />

McKay exhibition in Akaroa<br />

• By Louis Day<br />

AKAROA MUSEUM is<br />

holding an exhibition that<br />

celebrates the career of retired<br />

photographer Donald McKay.<br />

At the start of the year, Mr<br />

McKay donated more than<br />

40,000 individual frames to the<br />

museum which date from the<br />

late 1940s to the early 1980s.<br />

The collection of photos<br />

document social and community<br />

events, weddings, farming<br />

activities and other aspects of<br />

life across the Banks Peninsula.<br />

Mr McKay, 84, grew up on a<br />

farm in Le Bons <strong>Bay</strong> and began<br />

taking photos at Christchurch<br />

Boy’s High School when he<br />

joined the camera club.<br />

Mr McKay sold his bike and<br />

his best pair of shoes to buy a<br />

second-hand camera from H.E<br />

Perry in Colombo St.<br />

“We had some really, really<br />

good instructors, including Len<br />

Casbolt and Frank McGregor.<br />

Also, I used to spend a lot of<br />

time at my uncle Stan McKay’s<br />

as he was the Christchurch Star<br />

Sun photographer and his son<br />

Ross was a skilled horse racing<br />

photographer. I used to admire<br />

their beautiful cameras and<br />

enlargers . . . I’m not sure what<br />

I liked more, the photography<br />

or the equipment.”<br />

Mr McKay started his first<br />

photography job in 1961 at<br />

Burwood Hospital as a medical<br />

photographer, but would still<br />

travel back to the peninsula<br />

during the weekend to photograph<br />

various community<br />

events. Museum collections<br />

manager Daniel Smith said the<br />

exhibition would focus on Mc-<br />

Kay’s work during the 1950s.<br />

“During the 50s he was doing<br />

a lot of odd jobs as well as<br />

photography. He did a lot a lot<br />

of farm work and he would also<br />

take his camera with him when<br />

he was working on his farm<br />

jobs.”<br />

Mr Smith said the exhibition<br />

would include some of McKay’s<br />

most explicit work.<br />

“I’ve included a photograph<br />

from a series that follows the<br />

HISTORY:<br />

Retired<br />

photographer<br />

Donald McKay<br />

donated more<br />

than 40,000<br />

photos to<br />

the Akaroa<br />

Museum.<br />

tailing, tagging and emasculating<br />

of lambs at Lavericks <strong>Bay</strong><br />

in 1951. It was a grisly affair.<br />

The tails were cut off with<br />

knives, and you can see all the<br />

men’s clothes are blood spattered<br />

– like something out of a<br />

Tarantino movie.”<br />

The exhibition will open<br />

on December 7 at 5pm at the<br />

Akaroa Museum.<br />

17 Lillian Street, Halswell<br />

03 322 4548<br />

Open Mon - Fri 9.30 - 5.00pm<br />

Your Local Views<br />

Developing young surfers<br />

Steve Tyro<br />

from the Point<br />

Surf Team<br />

writes about<br />

getting his<br />

club of young<br />

groms ready<br />

for a summer<br />

of surfing competitions<br />

POINT SURF Team was formed<br />

in 1983 and is the local surf<br />

boardriders club in the Sumner<br />

and Taylors Mistake area.<br />

In the past, the club has had<br />

several national champions and<br />

dominated the South Island<br />

circuit for many years.<br />

The current focus of the club is<br />

on developing its junior surfing<br />

section by encouraging primary<br />

and high school-aged surfers to<br />

enter surfing contests around the<br />

country and locally, and also act<br />

responsibly/respectfully in the<br />

surf.<br />

We meet regularly for surf<br />

training and drills at Hardwicke<br />

St or at Taylors Mistake. The<br />

past winter’s focus has been on<br />

preparing for the New Zealand<br />

primary school champs in<br />

Gisborne.<br />

The club sent a team of two<br />

boys and three girls to the event<br />

last month.<br />

We have been preparing for<br />

the South Island grom series<br />

on Saturday and events over<br />

MAKING WAVES: Jack Tyro (left) and Johnny Andrews are<br />

members of the Point Surf Team.<br />

summer in Christchurch,<br />

Westport, Dunedin, Southland<br />

and Kaikoura. Last year’s South<br />

Island contest results were very<br />

encouraging for the club with<br />

Amelie Wink, Jack Tyro, Jordan<br />

Sparrow, Holly Campbell, Ruby<br />

Armstrong, Benji Lowen and<br />

Kobe Coleman all making the<br />

podium.<br />

As well as Sumner and Taylors<br />

Mistake, we especially want to<br />

encourage kids from Lyttelton,<br />

Redcliffs, Heathcote and Mt<br />

Pleasant to consider getting into<br />

competitive surfing.<br />

The South Island grom<br />

series will be hosted by the<br />

North Wai Boardriders Cub, 93<br />

Marine Pde, North Beach, on<br />

Saturday.<br />

Keep your speed<br />

down on the water<br />

Lyttelton<br />

navigational<br />

safety officer<br />

Gary Manch<br />

WELL our<br />

first seasonal<br />

boating<br />

weekend has<br />

been and<br />

gone, with show weekend in<br />

Canterbury traditionally the<br />

start of the boating season.<br />

It was a weekend where the<br />

weather turned out better than<br />

forecast. We had quite a few<br />

boats out and about on our waterways<br />

through the region.<br />

The good news is we had very<br />

few complaints about bad behaviour<br />

on the water, and I thank all<br />

the responsible power boat and<br />

jet ski users out there for that.<br />

The bad news is I still received<br />

complaints from some of the<br />

residents in the bays, and it was<br />

the annual comment about<br />

speed. As I have mentioned several<br />

times before, our role is not<br />

to stop you having fun out there,<br />

but we want everyone using the<br />

waterways to be safe.<br />

I keep stressing this and it’s<br />

disappointing that some people<br />

either chose to ignore the advice<br />

or just don’t care. As my dear old<br />

mum used to say: “Don’t care<br />

was made to care.”<br />

I would much rather educate<br />

than use the other option, which<br />

is issuing an infringement notice<br />

to people who are boating unsafely.<br />

However, there may come<br />

a time when education is clearly<br />

not working.<br />

Now, I am guessing that if you<br />

are out on the water for the day,<br />

you are going to use a lot of fuel.<br />

Let’s say $50 to $100 on a smaller<br />

vessel.<br />

Taking the scenario a step<br />

further, if you are reported for<br />

travelling faster than five knots<br />

when within 50m of another<br />

vessel or swimmer in the water,<br />

or within 200m of the shore<br />

unless the area is a designated<br />

water-ski, or uplifted area, the<br />

fine is $200.<br />

I was not the greatest at maths<br />

at school, but even I can work<br />

out by going slower and keeping<br />

to the safe limits, $200 is a lot of<br />

money to save.<br />

My advice this week is keep<br />

your speeds to the required limit<br />

as designated by the bylaw or<br />

signs in the area. That way, you<br />

will save money and I will save<br />

ink.<br />

Remember, nobody’s faster<br />

than disaster<br />

SUMNER LOST to Lancaster<br />

Park on Saturday in their third<br />

consecutive defeat of the season.<br />

Sumner now sit in sixth place<br />

on the championship ladder and<br />

will be relying on other results<br />

and a win against Burnside at the<br />

weekend to make the semi-finals.<br />

Sumner club captain Dan<br />

Vann said the side have been<br />

struggling to rediscover their<br />

early season form in recent<br />

weeks.<br />

Sumner lost the toss and<br />

batted first. Lancaster bowled<br />

well and took early wickets to<br />

have Sumner in trouble at 14/3.<br />

A small fight back from opener<br />

George Moore (25) and Dan<br />

Vann (15) settled things slightly<br />

before wickets continued to fall<br />

until a last wicket partnership<br />

of 22 gave Sumner a total of 100<br />

all out.<br />

In reply, Sumner made a great<br />

start, picking up early wickets<br />

and having Lancaster in serious<br />

trouble at 39/5, largely due to<br />

Dean Smith taking three early<br />

wickets (3/3).<br />

Slow bowlers Dan Vann (1/11)<br />

and Jonny Percasky (1/13) put<br />

the squeeze on, only conceding<br />

24 from their 16 overs and<br />

picking up a wicket each.<br />

Lancaster Park eventually<br />

decided to make a dash to get<br />

over the line and it came off with<br />

their No 8 batsman Will Ainsley<br />

making a quick 27 to get them to<br />

the total and the win.<br />

Vann said it was the<br />

side’s batting that let them<br />

down.<br />

“We just aren’t scoring enough<br />

runs as a team,” he said.<br />

“Early in the season, we were<br />

the leading batting side in the<br />

league and we still have four<br />

of our batsmen in the top 10<br />

run-scorers in the league. So we<br />

know we have the ability to score<br />

loss in cricket championship<br />

SPORTS<br />

SLUMP: Dean Smith’s three early wickets were not enough to<br />

prevent Sumner falling to their third consecutive defeat.<br />

the runs, it’s just a matter of<br />

getting ourselves in and going on<br />

to bigger scores.”<br />

Vann remains confident his<br />

side can bounce back against<br />

seventh-place Burnside on<br />

Saturday and reach the semifinals.<br />

“The boys were disappointed<br />

for sure but we know what we<br />

need to do and how to address<br />

THE Christchurch City Chorus<br />

is putting on a festive show to<br />

get everyone into the Christmas<br />

spirit.<br />

On December 15 the choir will<br />

take the stage to perform The<br />

Magic of Christmas.<br />

Musical director Virginia<br />

Humphrey-Taylor said the show<br />

would include Christmas carols,<br />

skits, poems and dancing.<br />

“We want to share the joy and<br />

music of Christmas with people,”<br />

she said.<br />

“We want everyone to come<br />

and sing carols with us. It’s<br />

something for the whole family<br />

to get everyone excited for<br />

Christmas.”<br />

She said about 80 members of<br />

the choir would be performing.<br />

“We’ve got quartets singing,<br />

we’ve got small groups singing,<br />

we’ve got about 20 children who<br />

will be performing,” she said.<br />

“We’ll sing a lot of the classic<br />

Christmas carols, but there will<br />

also be a few songs that people<br />

won’t know; songs from around<br />

the world about Christmas.”<br />

The show would give members<br />

a chance to get some practice<br />

in before the Christchurch City<br />

Motoring<br />

Drive past the petrol stations in a Kona<br />

• By Ross Kiddie<br />

THE FUTURE is now. Electric<br />

vehicles are the talking point,<br />

and while Tesla is seen as the<br />

glamour brand and has stolen<br />

the limelight in that part of the<br />

market, it’s now time for the<br />

mainstream manufacturers to<br />

stand up and be counted.<br />

Sure, there are a plethora of<br />

petrol/electric hybrids available<br />

in our market, and heaps<br />

of pre-owned Nissan Leafs from<br />

Japan, but there are just a few<br />

electric-only models that can be<br />

purchased new here.<br />

One manufacturer which is<br />

offering a good cross-section<br />

of electric and hybrid models<br />

is Hyundai. In recent times it<br />

has launched a smallish liftback<br />

model – the Ioniq – in electriconly<br />

form (as well as hybrid), and<br />

just lately the Kona has landed<br />

with electric propulsion, bearing<br />

in mind the small sport utility<br />

vehicle is also here in normallyaspirated<br />

and turbocharged petrol<br />

variants.<br />

When I look back in my diary<br />

for this year, I see I’ve spent more<br />

time in Kona than any other<br />

model. It’s just as well then that<br />

I like it, the Kona a neat mid-size<br />

SUV which punches above its<br />

weight in terms of driveability<br />

and practicality. It lands here<br />

HYUNDAI KONA: Plug it in and charge it up.<br />

from $31,990, but it is a bit of a<br />

step up to buy the electric Elite<br />

64kWh at $79,990. Sure, there’s<br />

a soon-to-be-launched lower<br />

power version (39kWh), but<br />

as with most new electric-only<br />

models in the market there is a<br />

price premium.<br />

However, that’s no detraction,<br />

the Kona EV is a fine piece of<br />

work and it is a car which will go<br />

a long way towards meeting the<br />

sales target for EVs.<br />

As mentioned, the Kona is<br />

mid-size and there is little compromise<br />

in the electric model.<br />

Yes, the boot space is slightly<br />

diminished but elsewhere you’ll<br />

find little difference inside. That<br />

is, unless you are the driver, the<br />

controls and layout of the console<br />

and dash area is quite different to<br />

the standard car.<br />

Notably, there are four push<br />

buttons for the direct drive transmission,<br />

all self-explanatory –<br />

drive, reverse, park and neutral.<br />

There are also paddle shifters;<br />

well, they don’t really shift gears,<br />

they simply add or reduce drag<br />

on the electric motor to promote<br />

the feeling of gearing. There<br />

are also several drive modes to<br />

increase or lower a sporty feel.<br />

Ordinarily, the electric power<br />

is ushered in with a solid surge<br />

right from the point of first<br />

movement. That’s because full<br />

power is available instantly, and<br />

if you take into account there<br />

• Price – Hyundai Kona EV<br />

Elite, $73,990<br />

• Dimensions – Length,<br />

4165mm; width,<br />

1800mm; height,<br />

1565mm<br />

• Configuration – Electric<br />

motor, front-wheeldrive,<br />

150kW, 395Nm,<br />

automatic transmission.<br />

• Performance –<br />

0-100km/h, 7.6sec<br />

is 395Nm of torque on tap, the<br />

Kona EV feels feisty.<br />

In technical terms, there’s also<br />

150kW of power available which<br />

if you stack up against a petrol<br />

engine, then it is biased towards<br />

sporty.<br />

If you are thinking that there<br />

must be some trade-off in terms<br />

of range then think again, the<br />

Kona EV has a claimed travelling<br />

distance of up to 480km between<br />

charges.<br />

That’s simply due to the number<br />

of batteries, as mentioned, there is<br />

64kWh of storage, and that along<br />

with the latest generation Lithiumion<br />

Polymer technology makes<br />

the Kona outstanding in terms of<br />

capacity.<br />

The only downside of having<br />

such capacity is the charge time;<br />

to fully charge from empty takes<br />

around nine hours, or 43 hours<br />

from a three-pin plug wall socket.<br />

That aside, most drivers don’t let<br />

the batteries go that low, and with<br />

the number of charging stations<br />

being installed nationwide, that<br />

needn’t be an issue.<br />

The Kona is also a blast to<br />

drive, it is fast – a standstill to<br />

100km/h time of 7.6sec is possible<br />

and it will scorch through<br />

a highway overtake in 4sec, the<br />

time it takes to make 120km/h<br />

from 80km/h is blisteringly fast,<br />

and that’s attributable to that high<br />

torque figure the electric motor<br />

develops.<br />

For an SUV, the Kona is<br />

delightfully agile, and I’m talking<br />

about a car which has a lot of<br />

weight, the batteries add around<br />

236kg to the standard car, yet it<br />

still feels nimble and balanced.<br />

Depending on your service<br />

provider, the Kona will cost<br />

around $8 to charge, and would be<br />

more favourable on a night rate.<br />

That being the case, it’s easy<br />

to see why EVs are becoming so<br />

popular in an age where fossil<br />

fuel costs are spiralling. If I was<br />

an EV buyer, the Kona would be<br />

by far my pick, it is a genuinely<br />

functional all-round vehicle,<br />

and one which has quality<br />

engineering aspects.

The Invitation<br />

by Belinda Alexandra<br />

In Gilded Age New York, money buys everything. What is your<br />

price? Sometimes the ties that bind are the most dangerous of<br />

all ...<br />

Paris, 1899. Emma Lacasse has been estranged from her older<br />

sister for nearly twenty years, since Caroline married a wealthy<br />

American and left France. So when Emma receives a request from<br />

Caroline to meet her, she is intrigued. Caroline invites Emma to visit<br />

her in New York, on one condition: Emma must tutor her shy, young<br />

niece, Isadora, and help her prepare for her society debut.<br />

Caroline lives a life of unimaginable excess and opulence as one of New York’s Gilded<br />

Age millionaires and Emma is soon immersed in a world of luxury beyond her wildest<br />

dreams - a far cry from her bohemian lifestyle as a harpist and writer with her lover,<br />

Claude, in Montmartre.<br />

Emma hopes for an emotional reunion with her only family, but instead she finds<br />

herself in the vice-like grip of her charismatic and manipulative sister, who revels in the<br />

machinations of the ultra rich. As Emma begins to question her sister’s true motives, a<br />

disaster strikes, and New York society is stripped bare - beneath the glittering exterior lies a<br />

seething nest of deceit, betrayal, moral corruption ... and perhaps even murder.<br />

more…<br />

A chance encounter brings Elsie face to face with the creature, and sparks the adventure of<br />

A CRACKDOWN on mobile<br />

traders acro s the districts could<br />

be l oming.<br />

However, the public has li tle<br />

interest in having input into the<br />

Only eight submi sions were<br />

received for a potential bylaw<br />

aimed at regulating commercial<br />

activities in public places.<br />

The district council wi l be<br />

holding a hearing for the Public<br />

Places Bylaw and Policy on Commercial<br />

Activities and Events in<br />

Public Places.<br />

A hearing i scheduled to be<br />

held on Thursday.<br />

The bylaw comes as an increasing<br />

number of mobile traders<br />

are s eking t operate in Selwyn,<br />

especia ly during the summer<br />

months.<br />

In the past year, the district<br />

council has received five inquiries<br />

about se ting up a mobile busine s<br />

on private or public land.<br />

A report said there are two<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 />

“One of the roles of a community<br />

board is to represent and act<br />

as advocate for the interests of its<br />

community and this is what we<br />

are doing. The LTP and a nual<br />

plans are a l about lo bying the<br />

council.”<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 />
