Redcliffs School pupils catch up with Boult 

Trent Boult may have been at the centre of controversy on Saturday during the Black Caps second one-day match 

against Bangladesh – but he was a hero for many Redcliffs School pupils. Boult, who took 1-49 in New Zealand’s 

eight-wicket win, spent time after training on Friday at Hagley Oval with some of the pupils. The next day he was 

fined 15 per cent of his match fee for swearing during the match.

Residents 

turn out 

over 

liquor 

store bid 

• By Louis Day 

REDCLIFFS residents are 

questioning how the proposed 

liquor store on Main Rd will 

achieve the fine wine and spirits 

experience promised by the 

owner. 

More than 50 residents 

attended a public meeting about 

the liquor store application at St 

Andrews Anglican Church on 

Thursday. 

Store owner Jugraj Singh 

assured residents the off-licence 

would sell fine wine and spirits 

and offer a range of delicatessen 

goods. 

However, residents questioned 

how Mr Singh would achieve 

what he has promised with a store 

that is only 62 sq m. 

Mr Singh was unsure exactly 

how much space he would have in 

the store for the delicatessen but 

said it was something he wanted 

to try. 

St Andrews reverend Thomas 

Brauer said he supported what Mr 

Singh was pitching but did not see 

how it related to the application.

Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi 

get in touch 

from the editor’s desk 

A GOOD read today on Joanna Norris, the 

chief executive of ChristchurchNZ (pages 

6-8). 

Norris, who led The Press and other 

Fairfax media assets in the South Island, 

has one of the most important roles in 

the city. 

ChristchurchNZ is a pivotal organisation to the region’s 

future. Tourism, economic development and events are its key 

areas. Without those pillars, the city and wider region will 

struggle to grow. 

Getting those wheels spinning won’t be easy and it will take 

time. Competition from other regions for events, tourism and 

economic growth is fierce. 

Having the right people around her to build relationships both 

here in New Zealand and overseas, and thinking outside of the 

square, will be imperative. 

I’m sure she will do well.

Swell keeps lifeboat busy 


IT HAS been a busy month for 

the Sumner Lifeboat Institution 

with a call out every few days. 

Three people had to be rescued 

over the last week due to a 2m 

swell on Scarborough beach. 

A female swimmer was taken 

out to sea by the breakwater rip, 

a surfer also lost a board and 

was taken 

away from the 

shore, which 

was followed 

later that day 

by another 

swimmer who 

had to be rescued 

from the 

Blair Quane 

same rip. 

The Sumner 

Lifeboat was 

also called out last Wednesday 

to help a kiteboarder who was 

struggling in the estuary 

mouth. 

Luckily the kiteboarder 

managed to make it back to 

South Shore before the Sumner 

Lifeboat arrived on the scene. 

The kiteboarder was assessed 

by Sumner surf lifesavers before 

being given the all clear. 

Sumner Lifeboat coxswain 

Blair Quane said it was important 

for people to be wary of the 

different rips on the beach when 

tree trouble?

KEEPING BUSY: The 

Sumner Lifeboat has 

averaged a call-out every 

few days this month. 

the swell is high. 

“With a 2m swell coming 

into the bay, water has got to go 

somewhere so it flows straight 

out of the rips, generally the 

main rip that it works through is 

the breakwater rip which is right 

in the corner,” he said.

David Irving said nobody 

was hurt and only grass and 

a few fence posts were 

destroyed. 

BURST WATER MAIN 

Two fire engines were called to 

a burst water main in Ngatea 

Rd, Diamond Harbour, on

Design soon 

for tram shelter 


PROGRESS IS being made with 

the Moncks Bay tram shelter. 

A design for repair will be completed 

for the tram shelter by mid 

next month. 

The city council has been working 

on the design for repair for the 

last three weeks. 

The 85-year-old building on 

Main Rd has been closed since 

Christmas Eve after an assessment 

of the shelter indicated the condition 

of the roof had compromised 

the structural integrity of the shelter, 

leaving it vulnerable to quakes. 

City council transport and operations 

manager Steffan Thomas 

said an exact date for when repairs 

would start was currently unclear. 

“Once the design has been accepted 

a scope of works will be 

outlined to give estimated timelines 

and costs. Timelines will be 

dependent on funding availability,” 

he said. 

Redcliffs Residents’ Association 

secretary Pat McIntosh said 

she was glad to see the project 

progressing but was also 

disappointed the shelter had been 

left to deteriorate to this state. 

“It looks as though it has been a 

very long time since any roofing 

maintenance was done on it to 

the point it had to be closed,” she 

said. 

Locomotive arrives in Little River 


SEVEN YEARS ago Andrew 

Wilson had a dream of bringing 

a locomotive to Little River, 

last week that dream became a 

reality. 

On Thursday, the Little River 

Railway Station Trust welcomed 

a 62-year-old locomotive into the 

station. 

Director of operations and 

trustee Andrew Wilson dreamt 

up the idea of bringing a locomotive 

to Little River in 2008 

as part of the trust’s 2021 vision 

plan. 

It was also Mr Wilson who 

came across the locomotive on 

Trade Me and drove to Dunedin 

to assess it. 

“I have driven further for 

trains, I have gone down to Bluff 

over a weekend,” he said. 

Mr Wilson said he has had a 

passion for trains ever since his 

grandmother took him for walks 

through the train yard next to 

their holiday home in Kaikoura. 

“On my grandmother’s death 

bed she said I must ask for forgiveness 

for introducing you to 

trains and I said why? You have 

introduced me to a hobby that 

will last me a lifetime and she 

said not to you but to everyone 

else for having to put up with 

this hobby of yours.” 

EXCITED: Little River Railway Station trustee Andrew Wilson with the locomotive. 


Mr Wilson who still has 

photos of himself as a child with 

locomotives hoped children 

today could create the same 

memories with the station’s newest 

addition. 

“The idea is to create that 

scene for people to make those 

memories and that locomotive 

is there to help people do that 

so they can look back on those 

memories for a lifetime.” 

The $8500 locomotive is now 

on the tracks connected to a 

carriage ready for people to have 

their photos taken next to it. 

The locomotive was introduced 

into service in June 1957 

and decommissioned in April 

1985. 

It spent its entire working role 

in the South Island. 

Mr Wilson said once the trust 

had restored the interior of the 

locomotive they would consider 

opening it up on special occasions 

and maybe even let people 

pull the whistle. 

The trust does not have a 

licence to run the locomotive 

along the tracks, however, Mr 

Wilson said they could possibly 

jack it above the rails which 

would allow the wheels to go 

round without it actually going 

anywhere. 

Late night Lyttelton Tunnel closures 

From Sunday 24 February, you’ll need to plan your 

travel around late night tunnel closures. 

These are essential to both install and test a new fire protection 

system inside the tunnel. 

Work on this $28.7 million project is expected to be completed 

by April/May 2019. 

Traffic lane closures are timed for late night/early morning 

on the lightest tunnel traffic days of the week, that is Sunday, 

Monday and Tuesday. 

In conjunction with the late night tunnel closures, we are 

carrying out maintenance on SH74 (Tunnel Road) to ensure 

fewer nights of disruption for motorists and residents. Work 

includes replacing some guardrails and road resurfacing work 

between Port Hills and Horotane Valley overpasses as well. 

Lyttelton-bound traffic into the tunnel for the 10-minute openings 

will be unaffected. Traffic leaving the tunnel towards Christchurch 

will have to exit onto SH76 Port Hills Road. 

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW 

• Real-time traffic information for the Lyttelton Tunnel area is 

available at www.tfc.govt.nz 

• A schedule of tunnel traffic lane closures can be found at 

www.nzta.govt.nz/assets/projects/lyttelton-tunnel/ 

lyttelton-tunnel-lane-closures.pdf 

TUNNEL CLOSED 

from 11pm to 4am 

Sunday 24 February 

Monday 25 February 

Tuesday 26 February 

The tunnel will open to 

traffic for 10 minutes on the 

hour on these nights. 

Emergency access will be 

maintained through the 

tunnel at all times.

CHANGE: An application has been made to turn 1/87 Main Rd, which is 

currently occupied by the Bloom Room Florist, into a fine wine and spirits store. 

Main Rd liquor store 

won’t be a ‘booze barn’ 

•From page 1 

Mr Singh’s original 

application proposed 

turning 1/87 Main Rd 

into Thirsty Liquor 

Redcliffs. However, Mr 

Singh changed the name 

to Redcliffs Fine Wine and 

Spirits. 

The landlord Peter 

Croft was absent from 

the meeting and was 

represented by his wife, 

Kate Bovett, who assured 

residents they would not let 

the store turn into a “booze 

barn.” 

“Permission to paint 

the shop will not be given 

and there will be no huge 

advertising like you see 

around the typical bottle 

stores,” she said. 

Community Action 

on Youth and Drugs, a 

Ministry of Health-funded 

organisation to reduce the 

harm to young people from 

alcohol and other drugs, 

wants the application 

removed because it does 

not represent what Mr 

Singh is planning. Its 

senior project worker Paul 

McMahon said the original 

application needed to be 

removed and a new one 

should be submitted. 

Mr McMahon said he 

would even contribute 

to the costs involved 

in submitting a new 

application. 

“The floor plan is 

standard for a bottle store, 

they [Mr Singh] talk about 

cheeses and delicatessen 

but there is just a tiny bit of 

space,” he said. 

•Objections to the 

application close 

tomorrow. Information 

on how to object to

Our People 

Joanna Norris 

From a top role in the fourth estate 

Just over a year ago, 

Sumner’s Joanna Norris 

moved from her role 

as editor of The Press 

to run events, tourism 

and economic agency 

ChristchurchNZ. She talks 

to Julia Evans about her 

20-year journalism career, 

an early encounter with 

David Bain and her love 

of the outdoors 

How have you found your first 

year at ChristchurchNZ? 

It’s been an incredible year. A 

year where we’ve had to do a lot 

of foundation-laying to make sure 

the organisation comes together 

in the way that it was intended. 

It’s really cool to be working in 

this role, at this time in the city’s 

history, so I feel really fortunate 

and privileged. 

Have there been any 

challenges? 

I think there are a number of 

challenges facing Christchurch 

and it’s been understanding 

which of those to address and 

in which order. It’s really been 

there’s so much we could do and 

so much impact we could have, 

the challenge really has been 

prioritisation and making sure 

that we don’t spread ourselves too 

thinly. We are, relatively speaking, 

quite a small agency and we 

need to make sure where we do 

intervene, we’re doing so with the 

greatest impact. 

What have some highlights 

been? 

I think the highlights are 

seeing the city come alive and 

in particular the CBD. In the 

time that I’ve been in this role, 

we’ve had a real activation of the 

central city and we’ve got a real 

glimpse of what we will become 

as a city. But also playing a role in 

shaping, firstly in the economic 

insights that the city has about 

itself and understanding what 

our challenges are and what 

the opportunities are. But also 

helping Christchurch become 

proud of itself and tell that story 

about who we are and that we 

INFLUENCE: After five years as editor of The Press, Joanna Norris moved into a new role as 

chief executive of ChristchurchNZ. 


have this incredible city and 

helping people feel proud of that 

is really cool. 

What attributes does the city 

have that will lure people to 

either live here or visit? 

We’ve done a lot of work to 

understand what it is that is 

special about Christchurch so we 

can tell an authentic story about 

the advantages here. One of the 

very first and fundamental things 

we have is the lifestyle that we 

have and the proximity we have 

to our incredible environment. 

Whether it’s the Port Hills or 

the beaches and I’m very lucky 

to live at the beach in Sumner. 

So my kids and I and husband 

and I love walking on the beach, 

we’ve just got this wonderful 

life. So there’s the lifestyle piece, 

there’s the fact that it’s affordable 

in comparison to other parts of 

the country. We’ve built this new, 

beautiful resilient city and we 

have a lot of the big grown-up city 

amenities. We’ve got four tertiary 

institutions, a skilled work force, 

and underpinning all of this, is 

this sense of Christchurch being 

able to carve a path. The way we 

term it is that we’re explorers, 

we always have been, we always 

will be, and Christchurch has 

this wonderful opportunity 

to continue that sense of 

exploration. All of that packaged 

into one great sized city that’s easy 

to get around, why wouldn’t you 

live here? We’ve been through an 

enormous amount as a city, a lot of 

pain, and as a journalist and editor 

I witnessed and heard so many 

stories of pain throughout the 

post-quake period. Everywhere we 

looked there was sadness. It was an 

incredible trauma that the city has 

gone through and some members 

of our community are still going 

through. But the flip side of that, 

we’ve had this opportunity to 

reinvent who we are, rebuild the 

city, build stronger, safer buildings 

and that’s been a real advantage for 

us now. 

How did you end up living in 

the city yourself? 

The interesting thing for me 

about Christchurch is that I’m not 

from Christchurch, I didn’t grow 

up here. I grew up in Dunedin, 

but I was born in Kaitaia. My 

husband and I and kids moved 

back here in 2012, we made a 

kind of crazy decision to move 

to what Christchurch was at that 

time. Just before I took this role, 

we had an opportunity to move 

back to Wellington, which was 

where we most recently moved 

from but we chose Christchurch. 

It’s the city that gets under your 

skin and becomes part of who 

you are. When you become 

involved in the reconstruction of 

the city and telling that story as 

a journalist and now in my new 

role, they are once in a lifetime 

opportunities. Cities are always 

organic, I think that’s the thing 

that’s important for Christchurch 

to remember. There is no end 

point, there never is for a city. 

Cities are by their nature, organic 

and evolving. 

Do you have any personal 

goals for your time at 

ChristchurchNZ? 

People often ask me this 

question, like what’s my five-year 

plan, sort of thing. I have very 

clear goals for this organisation, 

we’ve got 10-year goals that we’re 

committed to for the city. So 

the answer is absolutely from a 

professional point of view, but 

from a personal point of view, no. 

It’s really just about being as useful 

to this community as I can be with 

the skills and experience that I 

have. Also enjoying life and taking 

the time to spend with family. 

How and when did your 

journalism career begin? 

I was studying music at Otago 

University, I was doing a double 

degree in English and music, I 

play the violin. David Bain was 

in a class of mine. We were a very 

small class, there were only about 

20 of us. My then boyfriend and 

I at the time made the decision to 

leave Dunedin, it was sort of quite 

tainted by that experience (the 

Bain murders). We transferred 

up to Auckland University and I 

finished up my English degree. 

I realised in the course of that, it 

was when North and South was 

a very, very powerful magazine 

and I just realised the power of 

storytelling and how it can better 

communities with these really 

important stories that we tell 

about ourselves. I then went to 

journalism school in Auckland 

and my first job was at the 

Dominion Post in Wellington.

to taking Chch into the future 

You did a stint at the Otago 

Daily Times as well? 

I did. I was living and working 

in England, in Cambridge, with 

my then boyfriend, now husband. 

He’s a technology writer, we met at 

journalism school. There are three 

couples from our class and we’re 

all still married. My father was 

diagnosed with terminal cancer, 

my parents lived in Dunedin, 

so I moved back and worked at 

the ODT. In my last role [South 

Island editor-in-chief for Fairfax], 

I had 19 community papers in my 

portfolio, so I have had very close 

contact with community papers. 

When you started your career, 

did you ever think you would 

end up as an editor? 

No, I’m not that deliberate. 

Editing is an incredible privilege 

and amazing fun and very hard as 

well. I was just very fortunate to 

get that opportunity. 

Have any of your stories stuck 

with you over the last 20 years? 

Yes, there are some really, really 

powerful ones. The very first 

big story I covered as a junior 

reporter at the Dominion. I was 

working over Christmas and a 

young couple [Ben Smart and 

Olivia Hope] were reported 

missing in the Marlborough 

Sounds. Those stories always stick 

with you. 

Then more recently, 

Christchurch. It was interesting 

in itself, I was in Wellington 

when the quakes of 2010 and 

2011 happened. We were working 

very closely with the team at The 

Press and in fact on the evening 

of February 22, we in Wellington 

helped The Press team put out that 

edition that landed on people’s 

driveways on February 23. 

That was pretty crazy and 

incredible. That night the 

reporters all worked, they filed 

their copy and we helped produce 

that edition of The Press from the 

Wellington newsroom and that 

next morning that Press was on 

people’s driveways. I used to talk 

about that publicly and people 

would cry. 

That’s the power of the media, 

it’s so important. 

BIG STORY: Joanna 

Norris’ journalism career 

started after being in a 

class with David Bain 

at Otago University, 

while the first big story 

she worked on was the 

murder of Ben Smart 

and Olivia Hope in 

Marlborough. 

Have you had any big 

fumbles? 

That’s the nature of news. There 

have definitely been things that 

I have reflected on later and 

thought we could have handled 

that differently, or we could have 

put more thought into that, or I 

wish we’d had more information 

before we published that, we 

would have been better off. That 

being said, I always describe 

the media as a bit of a blunt 

instrument, in that you wobble 

towards a position of truth 

with each iteration of a story. 

Journalists are not academics 

sitting for three years doing a 

thesis and producing a body 

of work. You work to whatever 

time you work to, weekly, daily 

or digital, you get to the truth 

and you hold those in power 

accountable. 

Do you miss working in the 

media? 

There’s a lot I miss about the 

media, absolutely. But I am 

also very fortunate to work 

with journalists right across the 

spectrum and that’s quite a treat 

as well. 

What do you see for the future 

of journalism? 

I have great hope for the 

media. I think the commercial 

proposition is deeply challenging 

and very, very difficult in a New 

Zealand environment where scale 

is a challenge. There are only five 

million people, there are only a 

certain number of consumers 

who are prepared to pay for a 

product and a limited number of 

advertisers. 

But journalism is so 

fundamental to a safe and strong 

society that there must be a 

way through this and I think 

journalism is as good now as it’s 

ever been. 

Some of the investigative work 

that’s done by teams across the 

country by all media agencies 

really makes a difference and 

it’s absolutely essential that 

the fourth estate keeps an eye 

on people in power. It has to 

continue. 

Are you surprised or 

disappointed by the moves made 

by Channel Nine in Australia to 

sell New Zealand assets such as 

The Press? 

No, media ownership 

changes, it always has done. I 

think when I worked for what 

was then Fairfax, I think I 

worked under three different 

owners in the course of my career. 

I always said to my newsroom, 

you just do your job, your job 

is to be a journalist and hold 

the powerful to account and 

be a watchdog and champion. 

It’s other people’s jobs to worry 

about what the governance and 

ownership looks like. If you’re 

continually worried about what’s 

around the corner, you don’t do 

your job properly. 

Do you have any advice for 

aspiring journalists who want to 

get into the industry or young 

reporters? 

Just stay curious. But secondly, 

know the power that you have. As 

a young journo, you don’t quite 

understand the words that you 

write have an impact and often 

you don’t see that impact. It will 

change someone’s behaviour, it 

will happen behind the scenes, 

or the language that you use will 

change someone’s life. Just always 

be cognisant of the power that 

you have both to do good and 

damage. 

What made you jump from 

journalism to the corporate 

world? 

I had worked as the editor of 

The Press for five years and had 

overseen a lot of change in that 

time. Some of that change was 

really challenging to lead. I was 

aware I would need to do a lot 

more of that change management 

as time went on. Again, I was 

aware it was likely the next step 

in my career at what was then 

Fairfax would have been moving 

back to Wellington.

ANNUAL PLAN 2019-20 

E19/7226 

Environment Canterbury is considering its 2019-20 

Annual Plan. 

While the plan largely aligns with the most recent 

Long-Term Plan, small changes to our fees and charges 

policy and our revenue and financing policy are being 

considered. Increased funding of public transport to 

match funding from NZTA and increased funding in water 

management, pest control and biodiversity are also being 

considered, as well as a reduction in air quality funding. 

These will impact on some ratepayers, depending on 

their location, when the 2019-20 Regional Council 

rate is confirmed.

Our People 

LEADERSHIP: Joanna Norris said she moved to the corporate world so she could play a new 

role in the city’s development. 

Influencing things from 

inside rather than outside 

•From page 7 

At the same time as I was 

considering all of this, this job 

became available and people had 

conversations with me about this 

role. So I had to weigh all of that 

up and I realised the city was at 

a bit of a watershed period as the 

elections were on, there was a lot 

of change going on in the city. I 

saw, without wanting to overstate 

my relevance, an opportunity to 

influence things from inside the 

tent rather than observing from 

the outside. I was very fortunate 

that I was with a leadership 

cohort within the city that had 

gone through a period of the city’s 

history. 

Then I had a chance to play a 

different leadership role in the 

city. It’s been interesting observing 

the gendership in the city. When I 

first came here I was a bit different 

from the previous editors. I 

would go into these networking 

meetings in the city and I would 

be the only woman. It was really 

weird and confronting and scary. 

That’s not so much the case 

anymore, there are a lot more 

peers who are women. A lot of 

great men and women. 

Can you tell me a little bit 

about your family? 

I’ve got two kids who are 

amazing. They’re nine and 

11. My husband Blayne is a 

journo, so I suppose I’ve got a 

naturally affinity to journalism, 

we’ve grown up together. He’s 

a freelancer and he’s primary 

caregiver for our kids. I think – 

and he and I often talk about this, 

it’s one of those things that people 

don’t often talk about – it’s really 

hard to have two careers. 

You’ve really got to think about 

that as you start out in life and I 

think it’s important for couples 

to be really honest about that 

together and work out how 

they’re going to manage that 

because kids are a full-time job in 

themselves. It’s full-on. We always 

thought that it would get less 

work as they went to school, but 

actually it gets more because they 

get more sophisticated in their 

needs. We’re lucky and I’m lucky 

I get a lot of time with the kids as 

well. Blayne and I share it pretty 

well, although he did go surfing 

this morning, which meant that I 

was late for work but that’s okay. 

What do you do on a day off? 

I’ve got a good work-life 

balance, I work pretty hard at 

that. So we’ll go up into the hills, 

we’ll go on tramps. We love 

tramping as a family. We spent 

quite a lot of time up in Hanmer. 

We’re a real beach family. Blayne 

has taught Evie and Ollie to surf, 

they’re good wee surfers. 

BEFORE WE get into this, I 

need to say, still no luck on 

finding my mouse. That bad boy 

is probably long gone. 

I’m beginning to dread future 

hide and seek games, will I 

disappear too? 

However, over the last week 

Vittoria has started holding 

some things closer, and it’s very 

cute. 

She gets her favourite soft 

toys, like her Dragon, wraps 

her wee arms around them 

and gives them a big, smiling, 

moving side-to-side cuddle. 

Dragon even gets a couple of 

kisses on his cheek sometimes. 

Very, very cute. 

She even gave someone else’s 

teddy a big cuddle at Baby 

Times. I can’t wait to see her 

give her friends big hugs too. 

Last week started out 

productively. Over the weekend, 

Laura and I cleaned the whole 

house (hence the mouse update) 

with a focus on Vittoria’s room. 

Her room has seen a lot of use 

for storage, including her cot. 

We’ve been co-sleeping with 

the wee darling for a while now. 

She got sick last year which 

ended a joyous run of full nights 

of sleep until we gave in and let 

her into the big bed. 

VITTORIA 

& Matt 

Long road ahead 

getting back to cot 

Thing is, getting her back into 

sleeping in her own bed is not 

going to be easy. 

In bed with one of us, she 

can roll over, touch us and get 

reassured straight away that 

she’s safe and with her parents. 

In the cot, not so much. 

It really highlights how much 

like a little prison those things 

are when you see your daughter 

standing there, holding the bars 

and crying like the world just 

ended. 

And if you’re used to having 

your parents next to you when 

you settle back to sleep, dad just 

holding your hand is not going 

to cut it. 

So we’ve got a long road ahead 

to get her back to a place where 

she feels safe in her cot and 

happy to sleep there all night. 

A lot of that road will involve 

very little sleep too. 

To add to the difficulty, this 

week Vittoria and I have got 

some sort of cold. It may be 

unfair, but I’m pretty sure I 

got it off her since we spend so 

much time in close proximity.

Give your 

views on plan 

for Scott Park 

PUBLIC FEEDBACK is being 

sought on the draft landscape 

plan for Scott Park in Ferrymead. 

The draft plan features native 

trees, sealed parking areas, 

an established picnic area and 

improved access to the beach and 

boat ramps. 

It is open for public consultation 

until March 11. Linwood-Central- 

Heathcote Community Board 

member Darrell Latham said 

$145,000 will be available for the 

park. 

“This will not be enough to 

complete the entire project. However, 

it will mean that a start can 

be made on the most important 

aspects of the plan,” he said. 

“From my perspective, I would 

really like to see the access from 

the Ferrymead bridge to the 

jetty and planting and green space 

enhancements done.” 

City council head of parks 

Andrew Rutledge said the plan 

would regenerate and enhance the 

popular park by improving water 

access. 

“Scott Park already meets multiple 

community needs, particularly 

with regard to recreational 

water activities, but we want to 

ensure that the area is well-placed 

to meet future use,” Mr Rutledge 

said. 


MORE FUNDING could be 

given to the Lyttelton Seafarers 

Centre. 

The Banks Peninsula 

Community Board has asked 

the city council to request 

Christchurch City Holdings Ltd 

and the Lyttelton Port Company 

provide more funding for the 

centre. 

Christchurch City Holdings 

Ltd is the city council’s 

investment arm which runs key 

infrastructure including the 

port. 

LPC gives $5000 to the centre 

every year, while Christchurch 

City Holdings Ltd does not 

currently provide 

the centre with any 

funding. 

Community board 

deputy chairman Jed 

O’Donoghue said the 

amount of funding 

to go towards the 

centre has yet to be 

determined. 

Mr O’Donoghue 

said the welfare of seafarers is a 

humanitarian issue. 

“I have seen all these poor 

buggers in the rain outside the 

library trying to talk to family 

Jed 

O’Donoghue 

back home because of the free 

wi-fi there,” he said. 

The centre has had more 

than 10,000 visits from 

seafarers since it opened 

three years ago. 

The centre provides 

them with assistance, 

amenities, care, support 

and wi-fi so they can call 

their families back home.

chairman, Reverend 

John McLister, said shipping

This is something seafarers are 

guaranteed under international 

maritime law,” he said.

manager Phil de Joux said the 

Government also has a role to 

play. 

“LPC strongly believes a 

contribution to the funding of 

seafarers’ centres nationally 

should be funded via the 

maritime levy collected by the 

Government,” he said.

KEEP OUT: The Lyttelton Port Company has advised members of the public to 

keep out of the yellow areas at all times. 

Port company blasting 

at Gollans Bay Quarry 


THE LYTTELTON Port 

Company has started 

blasting in Gollans Bay 

Quarry. 

The first blast took 

place on Thursday. The 

operation will include more 

blasting and the use of large 

earth-moving and mining 

machinery. 

LPC has advised 

members of the public to 

keep out of the quarry area, 

which is owned by the port 

company, and stick to city 

council walking tracks. 

LPC infrastructure 

manager Mike Simmers 

said the blasting will 

typically occur about 

noon, depending on the 

site activity and other 

constraints. 

Mr Simmers said the 

blasting would be relatively 

quiet compared to the 

piling for the harbour’s new 

cruise berth. 

“It may be audible in 

Diamond Harbour, but 

very unlikely to be heard 

in Lyttelton itself. The blast 

yesterday was not noticed at 

our office,” he said. 

The material collected 

from the quarrying will 

go towards LPC’s land 

reclamation project in 

which it tis looking to 

expand the harbour by 

24ha. 

“Initial estimates indicate 

up to 3.5 million cu m of 

material is available from 

the quarry. 

“However, this may not 

all be used to complete 

the additional 24ha of 

reclamation.”

Rotary’s 

Barbara 

Crooks 

reports 

on how 

the club 

made it a birthday to 

remember for young 

Andr’e Rasmussen 

THE combination of a 

Rotary club, Santa Claus 

and a birthday in January 

was kind for Andr’e 

Rasmussen over summer. 

The Bay Harbour threeyear-old 

received a big 

present which has added a 

new dimension to his life. 

Andr’e has numerous 

disabilities, including 

restricted movement and 

minimal sight. He has been 

unable to interact easily 

with other children, and 

unable to share in most of 

his family’s activities. 

That changed when he 

received a Go Baby Go car 

– an electric, ride-in toy car 

designed for children with 

Rotary helps Andr’e 

RIDING IN STYLE: Andr’e 

Rasmussen taking his Go Baby 

Go car for a spin. 

impaired mobility. The cars 

are adapted to individual 

children’s conditions and 

needs, and have dual control 

– the child can steer, 

but an adult has over-riding 

control from a remote. 

The aim is to help 

children develop spatial 

awareness and allow them 

to be part of the family 

action. Ferrymead 

Rotary heard about 

Andr’e and funded his 

$1600 car through a 

special quiz night. 

His mum Dannii, 

saw potential for 

the car to help him 

interact with other 

children and to allow 

him to take a greater 

part in family life. 

And her hopes have 

been fulfilled. Going 

to the park is a family 

favourite, and Andr’e 

has ridden to the local 

library and along the 

New Brighton pier. 

“It has added a lot 

more quality of life for 

Andr’e and he’s happier 

in the family,” said Ms 

Rasmussen.

Sponsor named for 

tennis and squash club 

Sumner Tennis and 

Squash Club president 

Phil Loughnan reports on 

developments at the club 

SUMNER TENNIS and 

Squash Club has been offered 

sponsorship by the SBS Bank. 

Last week John Sherrat, the 

mobile mortgage manager for 

SBS Bank made the announcement 

at the regular Tuesday 

night competition held at the 

club. He said that SBS is very 

proud to be associated the club. 

For nearly 20 years Tim Hobbs 

and Roger Kay have been running 

a very successful competition. 

Each Tuesday night nine 

tennis teams play throughout the 

summer. Eight teams play each 

week and the ninth is responsible 

for providing dinner for the 

players. 

While the competition is hot 

on the court, competition is 

fierce in the kitchen as to who 

provides the best dinner Mr 

Hobbs said. 

Interclub has resumed after the 

Christmas break with our men’s 

team notching up a win against 

Waimairi on Sunday and our 

Sumner Cricket 

Club captain 

Dan Vann 

reports on the 

two-day clash 

with St Albans 

After two days 

of cricket against a St Albans 

second XI (for the second time 

this season) the scores could 

not be separated with the match 

ending in a tie. 

Day 1: 

Sumner were asked to bat first 

on day one and Sumner made 

173 on a good pitch with Stalwart 

Ben Yock making a crisp 50. 

In reply, Sumner took regular 

wickets and kept Saints under 

pressure with Ryan James the 

only major contribution of 42 to 

SPONSORSHIP: Tim Hobbs, John Sherratt of SBS Bank, and 

Roger Kay at the Sumner Tennis and Squash Club courts. 

12 junior teams doing well in 

the first week losing only three 

matches. 

There have been many new 

members join the club over the 

last couple of months and some 

just so they can play in the 2019 

tennis club championships. 

Rich Stanton, the tennis club 

captain, said that there are the 

be all out for 143. Dan Vann 4-56 

(18 overs) supported by 

debutante Simarpreet Singh 2-46 

and Jonny Percasky 2-27 doing 

the damage. 

This left Sumner an awkward 

10 overs to bat before stumps, unfortunately 

losing three wickets. 

Day 2: 

Resuming from day 1 Sumner 

made a poor start losing another 

two quick wickets to be 34-5. Anton 

Smail (26) and Dan Vann 

(35) managed a fight-back to get 

past 100. A key 20-run partnership 

for the last wicket meant 

Sumner were able to post 136. 

Leaving Saints 167 to win. 

Sumner had 25min to bat 

before lunch and Sumner were 

fizzing to get a couple of quick 

wickets before the break and that 

most entries he has ever seen 

in the competition with players 

joining from other clubs to play. 

Play is already under way and 

there was a good crowd on Sunday 

to watch some of the opening 

games. 

Finals weekend is on April 6 

and 7 and the public is welcome 

to go down and watch the games. 

Another cricket tie 

they did with Dan Vann taking 

three and Dean Smith picking 

one to have Saints 20-4. 

After the break Saints again 

fought back putting on 62 runs 

where two wickets fell in quick 

succession. R Gibbens then came 

to the crease and took a liking 

to the spinners picking up 30 

off two overs and things were 

looking dire for Sumner as Saints 

only needed 16 to win with four 

wickets in hand and two hours to 

get them. But some tight bowling 

from Dan Vann 4-27 and Simar 

Singh and some great fielding/ 

poor running meant Saints lost 

four wickets, the last with the 

scores tied. 

Earlier in the season Sumner 

and St Albans also tied in the 

T20 competition.

David Cox supported 

people in a quiet way 

Port Hills 

MP Ruth 

Dyson 

pays 

tribute to 

former 

city 

councillor 

and Hagley- 

Ferrymead Community 

Board member David 

Cox 

We are very fortunate in 

New Zealand to have so 

many people in our communities 

who are “givers” 

– whether it’s people who 

serve on school boards, 

coaches and referees of 

our sports teams, people 

who run our residents’ and 

community associations, 

or people who visit and 

support those who are 

otherwise isolated in their 

homes. 

It’s part of our culture 

that should be celebrated. 

The celebration of that 

community giving was the 

theme at the funeral service 

for David Cox, whose passing 

the Bay Harbour News 

acknowledged last week. 

David had an “ABCs” of 

giving – arts, business, 

community and sports. He 

supported so much within 

our area and the wider 

Canterbury community – 

driven by a sense of returning 

to our country – his 

adopted home – because he 

felt so fortunate to be able 

to make this his home. 

This drive made me 

reflect on how much we 

take for granted if we 

were born here and how 

much we should actually 

value what we have as New 

Zealanders. We have access 

to so many opportunities 

here that many from other 

countries dream about – 

we should make the most 

of them! 

I want to add my reflections 

on the life that David 

Cox lived and celebrate 

the fact that he had this 

drive of returning his 

good fortune. So many organisations 

and individuals 

benefitted from his generosity 

of time and spirit. He 

supported so many people 

in a quiet way, connecting 

people and groups, and 

always with a manner of 

impeccable respect and 

politeness. 

At his funeral, our mayor 

reflected on the demise of 

David Cox 

these manners with the advent 

of social media, where 

hurtful and unnecessary 

comments are accepted. 

But I am not as despairing 

as her words, as I see the 

continued community activity 

and others who have 

followed in the example 

set by David Cox – we are 

all better off when we give 

our times and skills to our 

community. 

May his family be 

comforted in their loss and 

may he rest in peace.

Sustainability key 

to organic farming 

There’s something for 

everyone in the realm of 

organic farming but as far 

as Bill Martin is concerned, 

it’s all about sustainability. 

The Training College 

Manager at Lincoln 

University’s Biological 

Husbandry Unit Organics 

Trust (BHU) is happy to see 

a surge in enthusiasm for 

organic food production 

as younger generations 

become more aware of 

environmental concerns. 

He says the growing 

popularity of organic 

production in recent years 

means that graduates are 

now taking what they have 

learned into a broader 

range of sectors. 

“It’s not just about 

growing, wholesaling 

and retailing food anymore. They’re 

going into schools and teaching primary 

and secondary schoolers about the 

importance of sustainable farming and 

gardening and really starting to embed the 

philosophy into the education system.” 

As far as conventional agricultural 

practices are concerned, he says farmers 

should be encouraged to optimise their 

production, rather than maximise it at the 

expense of the environment. 

“We need to change our agricultural 

paradigm and re-evaluate our priorities.” 

Mr Martin says those interested in a 

career in organics should enrol in the 

one-year Diploma in Agri-Food Production 

course, which is open to students either 

with or without university entrance. 

Introduced last year, it includes Tikanga 

and Mahinga Kai components and can 

lead to employment in organic primary 

production or other sectors related 

to organics, especially education and 

hospitality. 

“The course offers a good grounding 

in the principles of organic agriculture, 

teaching the philosophies and histories 

of organics and providing practical 

knowledge of how they are applied,” Mr 

Martin says. 

Apply now for the Diploma in Organic 

Agri-Food Production and begin studying 

in February 2019. 

Lyttelton resident 

Alison Ross QSM 

writes about the 

repairs to Evans 

Pass Rd 

BOTH Lyttelton and 

Sumner residents will be 

delighted that the Evans Pass 

conduit will be completed 

and open for traffic 

movements in March. 

I must say, I thought 

Lynette Ellis, the council 

spokesperson,was 

somewhat mean-spirited 

in not acknowledging 

the contractors and 

stonemasons by name. So, 

bouquets to Fulton Hogan 

and their workers for a 

magnificent job. Well done 

to you all. 

I note, however, 

within the list of 

accomplishments and 

factual detail there is one 

glaring omission, the 

return of our geckos and 

skinks. 

Much was made of the 

temporary relocation of 

the reptiles at the time “to 

protect the population” 

yet now, in spite of the 

completion of road and 

infrastructure they remain 

in the darkness and cold of 

the Deans Bush leaf litter. 

The reptiles are a Port 

Hills colony with a genetic 

memory and history extending 

back to the last 

interstadial approximately 

8000 years ago. 

Let’s have no 

prevarication, delays or 

excuses; immediately 

return our fauna to their 

home amongst the warm 

rocks of the Port Hills 

where they belong and not 

repeat the sorry saga of 

Powelliphanta Augusta, 

(NZ native giant land 

snail), some 4000 of which 

were removed from the 

Stockton and Denniston 

plateaus only to languish 

to this day, the majority 

deceased, in a chilled 

container somewhere on 

the West Coast.

As they say there is no substitute for quality 

and this home has that in spades. 

North facing, sheltered, and nestled amongst 

mature trees and gardens this superbly built 

spacious light and airy home of about 337m2 

enjoys lovely sea and rural views and is also 

very private. 

Comprising 5/6 very generous bedrooms, 

3 bathrooms including an en suite, and 2/3 

living areas. The kitchen and lounge are 

enormous, the hallways wide and most of the 

rooms open on to covered verandah giving 

shelter in Winter and shade in Summer. The 

main living area is octagonal in shape and is 

huge with a large wood-burner and also opens 

onto the verandah and lawn area giving great 

indoor outdoor flow. 

The farm house style kitchen features plenty 

of storage, a Rayburn stove connected to a 

wetback and the entire house is centrally 

heated with a diesel burner supplying hot 

water radiators. Fully insulated throughout 

and with double glazed cedar joinery you can 

see and feel no expense has been spared on 

this build. 

The land (1.23 hectares approx. Title pending) 

is a mixture of lawns, native plantings a 

paddock and 2 very well established orchards. 

There are 4 outdoor sheds, a good sized 3 bay 

barn/garage, lockable with concrete floor, 

3 phase power and toilet and good water 

supplies with a spring and deep water bore. 

This property gives many options due to its 

size, i.e. extended family or Airbnb etc. etc. 

and only a 12 minute drive to the Diamond 

Harbour ferry giving access to Lyttelton and 

the city. 

This is the perfect opportunity to have the 

lifestyle without having too much to look 

after, a chance to be semi self-sufficient and all 

this only 45 minutes approx. drive from the 

city. 

Only approx. 10 years old, to build this now 

to this quality would cost well in excess of 

the asking price so this is great buying in a 

beautiful location.
