Woolston village upgrade 

plans come under fire 

• By Matt Slaughter 

BUSINESSES AND a community 

board member are concerned after 

a proposal to upgrade the Woolston 

Village Centre was green-lighted. 

The decision was made at a Linwood-Central-Heathcote 

Community 

Board meeting last week and the 

project will now be brought to city 

council for final sign-off. The project 

to transform the centre, which runs 

down Ferry Rd, will result in the loss 

of 14 on-street car parks. 

The original 2016 Woolston Village 

Centre upgrade proposal, which 

did not go ahead, would have resulted 

in the removal of 48 on-street 

car parks. 

In spite of the new plan reducing 

this number, Woolston Pharmacy 

owner Simon Payne said business 

owners and shoppers will still be 

worse off if these parks are lost. 

“It is definitely negative for our 

customers. It will be negative for the 

whole shopping area, really.” 

“If you don’t have car parks that 

are convenient, then people are 

just going to drive on by.” From a 

pharmacy’s point of view, we get a 

lot of people who are injured, immobile, 

or have low mobility due to 

long-term health conditions . . . it is 

very inconvenient if they can’t park 

nearby where they want to go.”

from the editor’s desk 

IT’S THAT time of the year again – the 

countdown to the City2Surf. 

This year’s instalment will be the 45th 

time the iconic event has been held. 

Thousands upon thousands of 

Cantabrians have ran, walked, skateboarded, pushed prams and 

hobbled to the line over the decades. 

On pages 6 and 7 today, we talk to some of the people who 

will take part this year. 

The City2Surf is not a race – but many do consider it that, and 

that’s fine. Being first across the line is a great incentive. 

For others, taking on the City2Surf can be the start or end of 

a personal goal from a fitness perspective or just to say I’ve done 

it. With two distances, it’s an event for everyone.

Work reflects artist’s life near the sea 


ARTIST JOSH O’Rourke has 

lived in New Brighton all of his 

life. 

He loves the sea and using its 

untapped potential for creativity. 

Now, the 30-year-old has left 

his own indelible mark on a long 

stretch of wall overlooking the 

beachside basketball court just 

south of New Brighton Pier. 

Low Pressure High Pressure 

was finished in December and 

represents the surf breaks and 

weather patterns O’Rourke has 

become so fond of in his many 

years living in the area. 

O’Rourke was educated at New 

Brighton Catholic and Shirley 

Boys’ High schools and has family 

lives in the area. 

He was given the go-ahead 

to install his design after being 

named as one of the two winners 

of the SCAPE Public Art 

Trust’s Re:Activate New Brighton 

competition last year. 

His strong connection to New 

Brighton was his inspiration for 

entering the competition. 

“I’m pretty passionate about 

seeing New Brighton do well and 

doing things that are good for 

the community. 

“As a local artist, there are 

people in the community who 

know who I am, so I kind of felt 

a little bit of responsibility to 

FINISHED: New Brighton artist Josh O’Rourke’s work, which represents the surf and weather 

patterns, has transformed the area south of the pier. 

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER 

put in an application and have it 

considered.” 

O’Rourke said completing 

the project had been important 

for both his growth as an artist 

and New Brighton’s growth in 

general. 

“For me, it represents development 

and growth in my practice. 

“For the public . . . I hope that 

they see that there’s been a bit 

of an investment in the area in 

public art and beautifying the 

space.” 

O’Rourke was a surfer and his 

experience with topographic 

weather maps to find out the size 

of waves and direction of wind 

inspired the design. 

“I’d been toying with the idea 

of the patterns of the weather 

maps with some studio work and 

I thought that it would be perfect 

for the site because it’s so impacted 

by the weather . . . with surfing, 

I’m always looking at those maps 

and their impact on what we’re 

doing when we go out.” 

The project took seven days to 

complete, but it was carried out 

over three weeks because of bad 

weather. 

It was fully funded by 

SCAPE, with O’Rourke also 

receiving prize money for his 

winning design.

Car parking, 

plants main 

concerns 

•From page 1 

Mr Payne said a petition to keep 

the car parks, started by the pharmacy 

late last year, received more 

than 1000 signatures in one week. 

Around Again Cycles workshop 

manager Josh Boot said parking in 

the area was already difficult and 

losing more parks would make 

things even harder. 

“That’s a pretty substantial loss, 

I mean we already struggle for car 

parking as it is.” 

Woolston Bakery owner Min Che 

was also worried about losing business 

if the proposal went ahead. 

“We don’t want it to happen 

. . . because we are going to lose 

customers if there are no car parks 

on the street.” 

Linwood-Central-Heathcote 

Community Board member Brenda 

Lowe-Johnson said she has concerns 

about the kauri trees which 

would be planted. 

“Kauris are a North Island tree, 

they don’t belong to the South Island 

and they don’t grow here very 

well. I’m not very happy about that 

either because it’s a waste of money.” 

The proposal will be presented 

to city council on Thursday and a 

decision is expected in the next six 

weeks as to whether the project will 

go ahead. 

Noise relief at Common Ground 


SOUTH NEW Brighton’s 

Common Ground has become a 

lot less noisy. 

Six loud diesel generators were 

replaced by a more sustainable 

power connection box. 

THe box was installed by Orion 

and commissioned at a ceremony 

last Thursday following concerns 

from Common Ground about 

the noise and fumes the 

generators were creating. 

Common Ground coordinator 

Jane Harrison said she 

wanted the space to be environmentally 

and noise-friendly, but 

the funds had not been available 

to achieve this when it first 

opened. 

“We always wanted to have 

electricity and we didn’t want 

diesel-burning generators . . . the 

cost was just going to be absolutely 

prohibitive.” 

Ms Harrison said Burwood 

Ward city councillor Glenn Livingstone 

had come together with 

Orion, Safe Power and Nova 

Energy to install the power box 

for free. 

She said this would now 

ensure the surrounding environment 

and residents’ ears were 

looked after. 

“We’ve worked really closely 

with our neighbourhood and 

with our immediate neighbours 

Landlords 

Insulate against fines! 

By now, landlords, property managers 

and most tenants will be aware of the 

changes to the Residential Tenancy Act 

concerning home insulation, requiring all 

rental properties to have adequate ceiling 

and under floor insulation installed, where 

practicable, by 30 June 2019. 

However, many landlords and property 

managers may not be aware they could be 

liable for a $4,000 fine (per non-compliant 

property), payable to the tenants, if their 

investment properties do not meet the 

standard in time. With an estimated 125,000 

rental properties still requiring better 

insulation, these owners and property 

managers are being urged to take action now 

to avoid the impending rush. 

Local long-established insulation specialists 

EnergySmart are a selected service 

provider for the government’s EECA (Energy 

Efficiency and Conservation Authority) 

insulation programme, and currently offer 

both landlords and homeowners great 

savings to better insulate their properties. 

The company offers free property 

assessments with an insulation Compliance 

Certificate for the property if the existing 

insulation already complies. If insulation 

is required, they provide a Compliance 

Report and quote to complete the work. 

Extended home energy assessments are 

also available, covering heat pumps and LED 

lights if required. 

EnergySmart are one of the largest 

manufacturers and installers of insulation 

products in New Zealand and supply a 

range of home solutions including their 

own insulation brands Terra Lana wool and 

PolyKing polyester, as well as supplying Pink 

Batts fibreglass insulation. All carry a 50 

year warranty. 

Their installers are fully trained, clean 

and tidy, and their work is audited both 

internally as well as by the government, so 

you are assured of the highest standard of 

workmanship. 

EnergySmart has easy payment options 

including no deposit and 36 months 

interest free, meaning you can insulate your 

property from only $12 per week. Landlords 

can insulate now, take advantage of current 

discounts, and beat the rush. 

While insulation in rental properties is now 

a legal requirement for landlords, they will 

also have the satisfaction of knowing their 

tenants are living in a warmer healthier, more 

energy-efficient home, and consequently 

are more likely to stay. 

To enquire about a free property 

assessment and insulation options, 

contact EnergySmart.

to make sure that everything we 

do is going to just work really 

positively for the community.” 

The new power box will now 

run the mobile food and coffee 

vans, which operate on the site. 

It has been a popular community 

gathering space for residents 

in the east since it was set up by 

the Common Ground Collaborative. 

Orion general manager 

customer and stakeholder Paul 

Deavoll said: “It’s great to be able

community to create a more 

sustainable hub for local people 

to get together.” 

City Care also donated its

Bid to get Barnett Park crossing 

• By Louis Day 

REDCLIFFS residents 

are calling for a pedestrian 

crossing near the entrance to 

Barnett Park on Main Rd. 

The Redcliffs Residents’ 

Association 

has asked the 

Linwood- 

Central- 

Heathcote 

Community 

Board to 

support its 

request to city 

Darrell 

Latham 

council for the 

crossing. 

There is 

currently no provision for a 

crossing at the entrance of the 

park in the Main Rd Master 

Plan. 

Association secretary Pat 

McIntosh said the crossing 

would be essential to ensuring 

the safety of pedestrians. 

“Main Rd will become 

significantly busier when the 

Evans Pass Rd reopens and will 

also be used for the port traffic, 

which is not suitable for the 

tunnel.” 

There is only one other 

pedestrian crossing in the area, 

which is 240m away from the 

entrance of the park. 

“Barnett Park is a well-used 

local facility with a pre-school, 

playground, sports fields, 

public toilet, dog walking and 

barbecue areas and walking 

tracks. Many users are likely 

to want to cross the road to 

use the facilities.” Linwood- 

Central-Heathcote Community 

Board member Darrell 

Latham said he fully 

supports the pedestrian 

crossing. 

“This is an issue that has 

been raised previously by 

multiple residents and is 

certainly an issue of concern.” 

Dr Latham said crossing the

road to get into Barnett Park 

without a crossing posed a 

serious risk to pedestrians. 

“Fifty per cent of people 

who use a bus are going to

That area is an extremely busy

challenge – are you too? 

jogging twice a week. She likes to 

explore the Harry Ell Walkway, 

Sign of the Kiwi, Sign of the 

Takahe and Godley Head tracks. 

“Often in the past, I have walked 

with friends. A friend of mine 

is walking the 6km and then we 

will have a coffee afterwards,” she 

said. 

Josiah Beach, 30, Anna 

Beach, 30, and Ezra Beach, 

16, Cashmere – The trio will 

take on the 14km event this year. 

Husband and wife, Josiah and 

Anna, have completed the event a 

handful of times previously, but it 

will be Ezra’s first time doing the 

14km. “He’s just brought some 

new running shoes especially for 

it,” said his older brother Josiah, 

who has run up Rapaki Track 

a couple of times to prepare. “I 

think I’ll really get started on 

my training next month.” Mrs 

Beach ran her first City2Surf in 

2009, when training for a half 

marathon and “never looked 

back.” 

Ed Hogbin, 23 – Mr Hogbin 

describes himself as a “little bit 

of a runner” but it will be his first 

time doing the City2Surf. “A few 

years back I did a half marathon 

RIVALRY: Ezra, Anna and Josiah Beach. (Right) – Geoff 

Sutton and Angela Penn. 

and thought I’d have another 

crack at one this year.” He will 

use the City2Surf 14km event as 

a “halfway gauge” while training 

to see how on-track he is for his 

next half marathon. Hagley Park 

is his ‘go-to’ spot for training two 

or three times a week. 

Angela Penn, 49, and 

Geoff Sutton, 42 – The brother 

and sister duo aren’t letting the 

fact they are getting older slow 

the down. The pair are running 

the 6km event in the City2Surf 

together. 

“I’m going to be 50-years-old 

soon, I might as well keep going 

while I am still standing and 

don’t have many injuries,” said 

Mrs Penn. Back in October, the 

pair ran in the Pegasus Fun Run 

6km event and hope to run the 

10km event at the Christchurch 

Marathon in June. They are both 

driven by the hope that one day 

they might have grandchildren, 

who they would like to be fit and 

healthy for. 

“It’s more about getting out 

there and enjoying it. I am really 

looking forward to spending 

some time with my brother, it’s 

good to hang out,” Mrs Penn. 

Roger Comber, 70, 

Woolston – Back in his youth, 

Mr Comber 

took part in two 

half-marathons 

in Ashburton and 

Timaru. Now 

retired from his 

Roger 

Comber 

job as an english 

teacher, he said 

he has decided to 

get back into running. He enjoys 

running around the streets near 

where he lives and often goes to 

Les Mills gym to stay in shape. 

“I like the City2Surf because 

it is an easy distance and it’s a 

popular run to take part in.” 

James Ferguson, 32 – Mr 

Ferguson will take on the 14km 

event in the City2Surf. It will 

be his first time doing the event 

and he admits he’s a “first-time 

runner,” opting to keep fit 

through rugby 

and other sport. 

The event 

will help him 

prepare for more 

running later in 

the year when 

he takes on the 

James 

Ferguson 

Buller Gorge 

half marathon 

and the Saint 

Clair Vineyard 

half marathon in Blenheim. 

He is enjoying his training – 

somewhat. “It’s a fair distance 

the 14km, but I’ve got to get fit 

somehow.” 

Before and after work a couple 

of times a week, Mr Ferguson 

has been challenging himself to 

run distances between 10km and 

14km. He will accompanied by 

a group of friends who will also 

run in the event next month. 

Pauline De Wit, 66, 

Woolston – Mrs De Wit isn’t 

keen to slow down anytime 

soon. Previously, she has run 

the 6km event in the City2Surf 

but next month 

she decided to 

“push the boat 

out” and do the 

14km run. “I 

felt I could have 

gone further 

so I am keen to 

Pauline 

De Wit 

try the 14km. 

I have seen the 

wonderful sense 

of achievement 

gained from an event such as 

this and wanted to be part of it . 

. . I am getting older and I want 

to achieve something like this 

before age takes me over.” 

Mrs De Wit has been training 

with her friend Jill, who she 

has done the event with before. 

The pair enjoy after-work walks 

around the Burwood Wetlands. 

“The wetlands take 

approximately 40 minutes, plus 

walks at the weekend along the 

Heathcote River.”

Community action on climate 

change can make a difference 


LEST WE FORGET: Gareth Wright, great nephew of Lieutenant 

Corporal Henry Wright, Annette Sowman, great-niece of Private 

Richard Stevens, Harry Marquet and his son Michael Marquet, 

who are the nephew and great-nephew of Private Albert 

Marquet, stand in front of the memorial gates on Wakefield Ave. 

Three commemorative 

crosses claimed 

• By Louis Day 

THE FAMILIES of three Sumner 

servicemen who died during 

World War 1 have claimed their 

commemorative crosses. 

RSAs across the country 

commemorated Armistice 

Day last year by displaying 

crosses which commemorated 

servicemen who gave their lives 

during the conflict. 

The Sumner Redcliffs RSA 

made a cross for each of the 21 

casualties from Sumner and 

displayed them at the memorial 

gates on Wakefield Ave. 

The families of Lieutenant 

Corporal Henry Wright, Private 

Albert Marquet and Private 

Richard Stevens claimed their 

crosses. 

The families shared their 

thoughts and experiences, 

swapping tales and showing each 

other memorabilia, speculating 

that their predecessors may have 

met all those years ago. 

However, Sumner Redcliffs 

RSA president Pat Boland said 

there was still work to do. 

“Ideally we would like all 

21 crosses reunited with their 

families.” 

The remaining crosses will 

continue to be displayed on 

Wakefield Ave and may still be 

claimed by relatives.

Community 

Board 

member 

and city 

councillor 

Sara 

Templeton 

talks about how important 

community action is in 

fighting climate change 

I attended a thought-provoking 

meeting in Redcliffs recently 

where residents have started 

the year talking about climate 

change. 

While some in the media see 

no point in individual action and 

call on regulation from above, 

these residents have recognised 

that individuals acting together 

can make a real difference. 

Organised by Dave Bryce, we 

heard from Dr John Hunt about 

the science and Shannon Ball 

about measuring our individual 

and community actions. The 

information was really useful 

and the discussions generated 

afterwards were positive, with 

residents sharing ideas and 

knowledge. 

Individual action matters for 

many reasons – the first of which 

is that it makes a difference in our 

own lives, gives us hope and motivation 

for the future. The next is 

that our actions inspire others. 

This was a key message at the 

meeting – let us inspire change 

in each other and make a collective 

difference, not just as a 

small coastal community, but let 

us challenge our neighbouring 

communities to do the same. 

Then there’s the moral mandate 

– how can we ask change of 

others if we are not prepared to 

do it ourselves? 

This works both at a personal 

level, a city level and a national 

one. How can New Zealand 

insist that other countries cut 

their emissions when we produce 

more per capita than most of 

ACTION REQUIRED: The 

effects of climate change are 

wide-ranging. 

them? While we are small, we 

know that we can make a difference 

in the world when we lead 

the way. 

If all the small nations in the 

world whose emissions are under 

one per cent of global emissions 

simply threw their hands up and 

said ‘we’re too small to make 

a difference’ then 24 per cent 

of the world’s emissions would 

go untouched and continue to 

increase. 

However, the reality is that 

there needs to be large scale 

changes to our transport and 

agricultural systems, to how we 

manage water and our energy 

supply – things that individuals 

have no direct power to change. 

Yet we can make a difference 

as our leaders need a mandate to 

make this change. Without the 

grassroots demanding action our 

councils and our Government 

struggle to get changes through 

against a vocal opposition. It is 

here that I believe that individuals 

can make the most difference 

– by calling for change from 

those in power and holding them 

to account. 

“Never doubt that a small 

group of thoughtful committed 

citizens can change the world. 

Indeed, it is the only thing that 

ever has.” – Margaret Mead

Promising Hornets chase NRL dreams 

• By Gordon Findlater 

THREE PROMISING young 

Halswell Hornets have uprooted 

to Sydney in pursuit of their 

NRL dreams. 

Reuben Wilson, David Knight 

and Montell Peppard all made 

strong impressions during trials 

with Wests Tigers 

late last year and 

will now spend 

the year in Sydney 

among the club’s 

feeder ranks. 

Knight, 17, has 

been named in 

the Tigers Laurie 

Daley Cup squad, 

while Peppard, 17, 

has been named 

in the Western 

Suburbs Magpies’ 

SG Ball squad. 

Wilson, 18, has 

joined the Ryde 

Eastwood Hawks 

– a feeder club for 

the Tigers. 

“If we can open the door for 

a young boy from Christchurch 

or the South Island, it’s a big 

plus towards the pathway,” said 

former Hornets president Jeff 

Whittaker. 

Reuben Wilson 

“The big plus for these boys 

is that they’re now in an NRL 

environment.” 

Wilson – a fullback and 

hooker – earned a number of 

appearances for the Hornets’ 

premier side last season. His 

father Walter Wilson is a former 

Halswell, Canterbury and New 

Zealand agegroup 

player, 

and has coached 

the three boys at 

the Hornets. He 

has joined his 

son in Sydney to 

support him on 

his journey. 

“Reuben 

had two trials 

with the Tigers 

last year. They 

said he would 

be strongly 

considered for 

their under-20s 

if he was in 

Sydney. That was 

the catapult for us to make the 

move,” said Walter. 

Peppard – a back rower – only 

started playing league last year 

after previously playing rugby 

at St Thomas of Canterbury 

College. 

SPORTS 

“Jeff [Whittaker] and I sat 

down with him and his parents 

and had a good chat about what 

opportunity rugby league could 

have for him,” said Walter. 

“He’s a strong physical player 

and has a great attitude.” 

Knight, who is a back rower, 

was introduced to league as a 

12-year-old and has made his 

way through the junior ranks at 

the Hornets. 

Knight and Peppard will 

attend secondary school in 

Sydney, while Wilson – who 

recently finished at Christchurch 

Boys’ High School – is doing 

landscaping work in the 

morning and training with his 

club in the evenings. 

STARS: David Knight and 

Montell Peppard have 

relocated to Sydney, 

along with Reuben Wilson, 

following a successful trial 

with Wests Tigers. 

Halswell club softballer 

takes skills to the max 

• By Jacob Page 

MAX SARGEANT (left) is 

turning the skills he learnt in 

his backyard into a promising 

softball career. 

The 14-year-old Halswell 

Softball Club player was part of 

the Canterbury under-15 infield 

which went undefeated at the 

national championships. 

He was named in the Rest 

of New Zealand tournament 

team, and will also trial for the 

development Black Sox later in 

the summer, which could lead to 

a tour of Australia this year. 

Max can play any infield 

position but prefers second base 

or short stop. 

“I like how you get a lot of 

balls coming your way and 

you’re always in the action,” he 

said. 

Max has been playing softball 

since he was five and has 

practiced his technique in 

the backyard with his dad 

Peter. 

He has a family pedigree with 

his uncle, Michael Sands, being 

a former Black Sox player in the 

early 2000s. 

Max also plays premier 

reserves, under-23s and under- 

18s for Halswell, meaning he 

often has three games a week. 

“It’s playing against big people 

which has been difficult, but 

it’s been a learning year and, 

hopefully, I can put those skills 

into my 18s game. 

“I’d like to make the 

Canterbury under-18s and keep 

moving up to national squads.” 

Max said he would love to 

emulate his uncle and become a 

second generation Black Sox. 

He also wants to play at college 

level overseas. 

But for now, Max is just 

motivated to get better.

KIDSTUFF 

Cathedral Grammar Pre-School 

located within the heart of the city 

Our play based learning 

approach supports your child 

as they begin their exciting 

journey as a lifelong learner. 

Play, laughter and learning are essential 

ingredients for a successful Pre-School 

education. The crucial early years need to 

be nurtured, shaped and cherished as your 

child takes their first steps in education. 

Cathedral Grammar Pre-School proudly 

teaches the children of tomorrow, today. 

At Cathedral Grammar Pre-School your 

whole family is welcomed into the wider 

embrace of the Grammar community 

including whole school fun and functions, 

services and support as well as smooth 

transition to the Junior School and links to 

the Prep School. 

In Cathedral Grammar’s purpose built 

Pre-School, taught by qualified teachers, 

your child will discover by curiosity, 

investigation and exploration. Our low 

child/teacher ratios, ensure your child’s 

quality individual and group learning. 

Research states that play may be the 

single most important things that humans 

do. “Our play based learning approach 

supports your child as they begin their 

exciting journey as a lifelong learner” says 

Principal Scott Thelning. 

Your child will develop essential 

foundations in literacy and numeracy. He 

or she will enjoy the benefits of specialised 

facilities, subjects and staff including Art, 

Physical Education, Yoga and Chapel. 

When children feel good about 

themselves and their abilities, they are able 

to take flight and explore, discover, take 

risks and play, laugh and learn effectively 

and successfully. “Self-esteem is at the core 

of this development process” Thelning 

says. 

Being an inner city Pre-School gives 

you a wonderfully easy opportunity to 

engage in your child’s learning if you are 

working in the CBD. Every opportunity 

is taken to utilise our central city location 

to extend our ‘campus’ from the Botanic 

Gardens to the Canterbury Museum, 

The Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o 

Waiwhetu to the Christchurch Transitional 

Cathedral, from Tūranga (Christchurch 

central library) to the emergency services. 

Every day is an open day at Cathedral 

Grammar Pre-School. Contact the 

school office to arrange a personal tour
