Bid to stop
motor bikes
hooning
along
estuary
edge and
red zone
• By Matt Slaughter
MOTOR-CYCLISTS hooning
along the Southshore estuary edge
and through popular red zone
walking tracks are putting lives in
danger.
Coastal-Burwood Community
Board deputy chairman Tim
Sintes said it is an accident
waiting to happen, but there is
currently no signage to say motorcycles
are banned in the areas.
Land Information New Zealand,
which is responsible for the
red zone, agreed motor-cycles
should not be ridden in the area.
However, Mr Sintes has been
asking LINZ to install “no motorcycle”
signage for six years and
nothing has been done.
LINZ’s Christchurch land and
property group manager Jeremy
Barr said a staff member was on
site on Friday looking at options
for installing ‘no motor-cycle’ signage.
He said LINZ will continue
its conversation with the Coastal-
Burwood Community Board.

IT’S ONLY taken six years, but finally
the Government organisation which
looks after the red zone has woken up to
the need for “no motor-cycle” signs in
Southshore.
Local community board member Tim Sintes (see page 1) says
people using the walking tracks and beach are in danger. He
is worried there will be the odd punch-up too as frustration
grows.
Sintes raises a valid point about the motor bikes. The sooner
the signs are put up the better.
And bad news for seagulls on page 3. The city council is looking
at seagull-proof rubbish bins on the north and south ramps.
No doubt they’ll swoop elsewhere for the left over chips and

Revolutionary plan for red zone
• By Matt Slaughter
A NEW, children-friendly
development along the
Richmond end of the Avon River
will aim to help Banks Avenue
School Pupils recover from the
trauma of the earthquakes.
Avon-Otakaro Network’s
Evan Smith said about four out
of five Banks Avenue School
pupils had been left with some
form of post-traumatic stress
disorder.
Banks
Avenue School
principal
Toni Burnside
said an ongoing
study by
Canterbury
Toni Burnside
University associate
professor
Kathleen
Liberty had found Banks Avenue
pupils continued to show symptoms
of PTSD almost nine years
on from the first quake.
Mrs Burnside said these
symptoms included not being
able to focus in class, having
separation anxiety from their
parents and struggling to sleep
at night.
Mr Smith said Avon-Otakaro
Network’s so-called Riverlution
project would aim to bring
normality and fun back into the
lives of pupils and residents who
had been surrounded by red
zone for so long.
“With the behaviours some
of the kids are exhibiting, they
calm down a lot if they’re out
and about and getting in touch
with the dirt.”
The development would run
from Glade Ave to Banks Ave
and include a number of features
including kids walking trails,
play areas gardens, a pop-up cafe
and a tiny house village.
“For a long time this area has
been a place of fear and now it
can be a part of the solution.
It’s really just enabling kids to

have an opportunity to explore
the space and be at peace with it
again,” said Mr Smith.
He said Banks Avenue
pupils would get to choose
one feature to include in the
project and the discussion on
what this would be was in its
early stages.
Mrs Burnside said Ms Liberty
was continuing to work with
Banks Ave’s teachers to develop
strategies to help pupils with
PTSD cope at school.
These included “drink to
think,” a daily initiative where
children are made to drink milk,
having play time before lunchtime
so students are
settled when they come
back into the classroom and
having a snack break between
the start of school and morning
tea time.
She said involving pupils in
the Riverlution project would
be another positive step towards
their recovery.
“We’ve been devastated here,
so it’s really nice for them to
be a part of that re-growth
and rejuvenation . . . in years
to come, they’ll remember the
earthquakes, but they’ll also
remember that they’ve played a
part.”

Reserve developments
• By Matt Slaughter
AN OVERHAUL of
reserves in South New
Brighton is set to continue.
The city council has said
the designs for new projects
in a plan to improve
parks and green areas
throughout South New
Brighton can start.
A new pump track in
South New Brighton Park
and new picnic areas in
southern Bridge St and
Blighs Garden will be
designed.
The projects are expected
to be completed by 2021.
They are part of
a plan, which was
created in 2014 to
revamp Blighs Garden,
Bridge Reserve
and South New
Brighton Park.
Work has already
occurred in all of
the areas and so far,
has involved the removal
of trees, the demolition
of earthquake damaged
buildings and the construction
of some infrastructure
including a new
toilet and jetty in South
New Brighton Park.
Once the pump track
and picnic areas are

completed, they will be followed
by the development
of other infrastructure
including walking tracks,
car parks, playgrounds,
green areas and
toilet facilities.
Coastal-Burwood
Community Board
deputy chairman
Tim Sintes said the
reserves had been
hammered in the
earthquakes.
“There’s not an
area around that didn’t
need work
. . . they were just in a general
state of disarray.”
He said the parks were
used by large numbers of
residents and the developments
would do a lot to
boost the morale of the
South Brighton community.

“It’s really big, it means
so much.”
“When things get tidied
up, it restores the pride in

Coastal Ward city councillor
David East said the
pump track and picnic area
projects that had just been
green-lighted would help
attract more visitors to
South New Brighton.
“Blighs garden is an
under-utilised area at the
moment, so some improvements
down there will be
a welcome edition. The
bridge street area
. . . to have a picnic area
there is good and the bike
track pump station in the
domain itself to me is just a
complementary activity to
a lot of great things that are
in there now.”

Council culture worries East
• By Julia Evans
UNDER FIRE city councillor
David East is worried about the
internal culture among some city
council staff.
It has been six months since Cr
East accused city council staff of
tampering with the District Plan.
He has since been embroiled in a
code of conduct complaint.
But he said the saga had
sparked concerns about aspects
of the city council’s culture.
Cr East passed on those concerns
to Mayor Lianne Dalziel,
chief executive Karleen Edwards
and his city council colleagues.
He said the majority of staff are
“brilliant” and do an “exceedingly
good job” for the council.
“However, in parts, there is resistance
and a culture that is detrimental
to the future progress of
the city . . . there is a reluctance
to embrace a can-do attitude.”
He said he has lodged his own
code of conduct complaints
against two senior staff members.
They had not yet been formalised,
but he said staff were “on
notice.”
“One senior member wrote
something in an email to question
my ability . . . the other was
a verbal comment made in the
council foyer,” he said.
SIEGE: City councillor David East is still calling for an
independent inquiry into how a clause was left out of the
District Plan.
Cr East has been under fire
since he claimed a clause in the
District Plan, giving leeway to
people in specific coastal areas,
deemed at risk of flooding, to
build and extend homes, was
intentionally left out by staff.
His call was backed by Coastal-
Burwood Community Board
chairwoman Kim Money and
deputy chairman Tim Sintes,
and Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board member Darrell
Latham, who face their own
code of conduct complaints.
As a result of the outspoken
comments, Greater Christchurch
Regeneration Minister
Megan Woods approved the city
council’s proposal to amend the
District Plan under section 71 of
the Greater Christchurch Regeneration
Act.
Cr East acknowledged Dr
Woods, Ms Dalziel, Dr Edwards
and staff for fast-tracking the
changes.
But he is still calling for an
urgent, independent inquiry into
how the clause was left out.
An audit, which the city council
commissioned, by Environment
Canterbury councillor and
former Environment Court judge
Peter Skelton found there never
was a missing clause.
However, Cr East said the
Skelton audit did not address a
number of irregularities or how
the clause came to be missing.
Ms Dalziel and Dr Edwards are
demanding a further apology,
he said. “I think my major
objection is I’ve been proved
guilty as charged and the inquiry
is needed to say if there’s any
substance to the claims,” Cr East
said.
“I apologised and I’m not
wanting to do it again and again
. . . the independent inquiry
would bring to the fore these
irregularities in the District Plan,
why should I apologise before
that?”

Coastal climate
change plan
goes ‘off-track’
• By Julia Evans
SOUTHSHORE residents feel
climate change might come
sooner than their promised
regeneration plan.
Regenerate Christchurch has
told the city council the Southshore
and South New Brighton
project was “off-track” as it undertook
an internal review. It announced
coastal residents would
be consulted in July about the
future of their suburbs to come
up with solutions to manage the
impacts of climate change.
But Southshore Residents’
Association chairwoman Lynda
Burdekin said it was “incredibly
disappointing” to hear the plan
had been delayed. “If they wait long
enough, they won’t have a problem.
We’re feeling really let down– we
put a lot of work into working with
Regenerate,” she said.
Regenerate chief executive Ivan
Iafeta said it is reviewing the
project’s next phase with the city
council, Environment Canterbury
and Ngai Tahu. “Because of
the complexity of the overlapping
issues associated with the earthquakes
and climate change, it is
important to review and refine
our approach.”

The Hunt for MH370
The mystery. The cover-up. The Truth
By ean Higgins
Somewhere out in the wild seas of the southern Indian Ocean, in
the underwater canyons of Broken Ridge near the alien sub-terrain
known as the Seventh Arc lies the answer to the world’s greatest
aviation mystery.
Why, on the night of 8 March 2014, did Malaysia Flight MH370
suddenly U-turn on the trip from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, zig-zag
over Malaysia and up the Straits of Malacca, then disappear in the
middle of nowhere without a word from anyone on board?
Was it an elaborate murder-suicide by a rogue pilot? A terrible
accident as a result of an on-board fire, rapid decompression or
systems failure? A terrorist hijacking gone wrong? Was the flight
captured by North Korean spies? Or even, as a few extremists
believe, the victim of extra-terrestrial intervention? Journalist for The Australian Ean Higgins has led
the world’s coverage of the MH370 saga, one of the 21st century’s most baffling, enduring and
controversial mysteries. Ean’s book draws on five years of interviews with aviation experts, victim
families, air-crash investigators and air and ocean hunters, and takes us inside the saga like never
before, written up close, on the inside, and from the major player’s perspectives.
Untitled By Anna Pasternak
Who was the real Wallis: an opportunistic American social climber,
a master manipulator or the true love of Edward’s life? Amid the
cacophony of condemnation her story has become obfuscated.
Untitled is an intimate biography of one of the most misunderstood
women in British royal history. His charisma and glamour ensured
him the status of a rock star prince. Yet Edward gave up the British
throne, the British Empire and his position as Emperor of India, to
marry his true love, American divorcee Wallis Simpson. So much
gossip and innuendo has been levelled at Wallis Simpson that it
has become nearly impossible to discern the real woman. Many
have wondered why, when Edward could have had anyone he
desired, he was smitten with this unusual American woman. As
her friend Herman Rogers said to her in 1936 when news of her
affair with Edward broke: ‘Much of what is being said concerns a
woman who does not exist and never did exist.’ History is mostly
perceived from the perspective of his-story.
Keepers of History
New Zealand Centenarians tell their stories.
By renee Hollis
From the everyday to the extraordinary, these are the stories of New
Zealand centenarians who have lived through history. In 2017,
Renee Hollis interviewed 120 people over the age of 100, living in
every region of New Zealand. Along the way, she had the privilege
of interviewing 23 World War II veterans. Her goal in compiling the
book was to preserve New Zealand history by sharing the stories and
memories of our eldest citizens. She wants all people to value the
elderly and to read and appreciate their stories and contribution to
our society. Most importantly, she wants to ensure that that they are not forgotten and do not become
invisible in our communities, but instead are honoured and celebrated. In this collection of interviews,
we meet opera singers and farmers, a politician and a racing car driver, a nun and a freedom fighter
with Gandhi, and even a member of Hip Operation - the oldest hip-hop group in the world! They have
witnessed momentous global events and technological innovations that have changed our world.
Mutiny on the Bounty
by Peter Fitzsimons
The mutiny on HMS Bounty, in the South Pacific on 28 April 1789,
is one of history’s truly great stories - a tale of human drama,
intrigue and adventure of the highest order - and in the hands of
Peter FitzSimons it comes to life as never before. Commissioned
by the Royal Navy to collect breadfruit plants from Tahiti and take
them to the West Indies, the Bounty’s crew found themselves in
a tropical paradise. Five months later, they did not want to leave.
Under the leadership of Fletcher Christian most of the crew mutinied
soon after sailing from Tahiti, setting Captain William Bligh and
18 loyal crewmen adrift in a small open boat. In one of history’s
great feats of seamanship, Bligh navigated this tiny vessel for 3618
nautical miles to Timor. Fletcher Christian and the mutineers sailed
back to Tahiti, where most remained and were later tried for mutiny.
But Christian, along with eight fellow mutineers and some Tahitian
men and women, sailed off into the unknown, eventually discovering the isolated Pitcairn Island - at
the time not even marked on British maps - and settling there. This astonishing story is historical
adventure at its very best,encompassing the mutiny, Bligh’s monumental achievement in navigating to
safety, and Fletcher Christian and the mutineers’ own epic journey from the sensual paradise of Tahiti
to the outpost of Pitcairn Island.

Dog attack concerns in Southshore
• By Matt Slaughter
NOT ENOUGH is being
done to prevent dog attacks
in Southshore, says an ex-dog
owner of 30 years.
However, the city
council’s head of regulatory
compliance Tracey Weston says
Southshore and other beach
suburbs do not have a reputation
for dog attacks and the city
council’s current approach to dog
control is working fine.
But Southshore resident Bernie
Calder claimed residents on
his street have had their dogs
attacked in the past.
One neighbour’s terrier was
even killed as a result of an
attack, he said.
“This vicious dog that had
killed before somehow got out of
the household and went straight
over to this chap’s dog and
started going at it. Fortunately,
he managed to grab hold of it
and took it back home. There
was no further action against the
owner.”
At a Coastal-Burwood
Community Board meeting last
Monday, Mr Calder said the
board should request the city
council tighten its stance on dog
control.
“My view is that any dog which
has attacked another dog should
really be muzzled in public
because they should be able to
have their dog approach another
one without it being killed.”
Ms Weston said dog control
already took this approach.
“Dogs that are classified as
‘menacing or dangerous’ are
required to be muzzled while at
large in a public place.”
However, Mr Calder said in
the cases he and his neighbours
had been involved in, dog control
only issued warnings to the
owners of aggressive dogs. He
said muzzling was not done often
enough.
However, Ms Weston said
dog control takes all the steps
necessary to prevent dog attacks.
“Public safety is paramount in
the functions we perform. We
manage dog aggression on a
case-by-case situation, where
warnings are appropriate,
we issue them, and where
classification, based on
evidence, it is appropriate we do
that.”
Southshore Residents
Association chairwoman Lynda
Burdekin, who has owned a
dog, said from what she has
seen, more muzzling of dogs is
necessary.
“In an area where there are lots
of dogs, lots of families, young
children who are not always
terribly careful around dogs, you
need to have good control and
if you haven’t got a dog that you
can rely on, it does need to be
muzzled.”
•From page 1
Mr Sintes hopes these
conversations will lead to action,
but said he is disappointed it has
taken so long for new signage to
be seriously considered.
Mr Sintes said if nothing is
done to stop motor-cyclists
riding through the areas “there’s
going to be fisticuffs.”
“There’s been a bit of an
increase in it happening and
it’s just a bit of a concern that
residents might take things into
their own hands and it might get
out of control.”
“It’s a very, very popular
walkway and cycleway with
families and, if you get a motor
bike hooning down there,
it’s very dangerous and then
occasionally we get one hooning
down to the estuary.”
Said Mr Barr: “We are aware
of the issue of motor-cyclists
using walking tracks in the
Southshore red zone and estuary
area. We have had complaints
about this in the past.”
Mr Barr said LINZ has put
measures in place to try and stop
the problem, but they had not
been effective.
“There is signage in place that
says no unauthorised access, and

patrol that area. They have in

move on. This, unfortunately,

the issue.”
Mr Sintes said some motorcyclists
had intimidated walkers
in the past when they had been
asked to get off their bikes.
“Invariably they get pretty
aggressive . . . it’s not pleasant for
anyone. They went down there
for a walk, not an argument.”

Subdivision
gets new
reserves
• By Matt Slaughter
FOUR EMPTY plots of land in
the Prestons subdivision will
become recreation reserves.
The Coastal-Burwood Community
Board approved the proposal
and the reserves’ names at
a meeting last week.
The decision means the
reserves will now be maintained
regularly by city council staff.
It has previously not been
responsible for the areas because
unnamed reserves cannot be
placed under the city council’s
schedule of maintenance.
The community board agreed
the renaming was the best
option for all involved because it
means the reserves can now be
easily located by residents and
their use can be promoted by the
city council.
The reserves will receive their
official names in the next month.
The names are:
1. Aopori Reserve (Prestons
Park Drive)
2. Arokehe Reserve (Avemore
Drive)
3. Kowaro Reserve (Prestons
Park Drive)
4. Mara Reserve (Katrine
Drive)
The city council also plans to
extend Marshland Domain.

WHEN CATHY Allden laid eyes
on Richmond in 2007, she knew
she was home.
The British expat fell in love
with New Zealand’s landscapes
when she first visited in 2001.
When she and her partner
John Cleminson decided
to start their house hunt in
Christchurch, they quickly
realised they loved no landscape
more than the one around
Richmond.
“We really loved the river and
we loved the proximity to the
city and we didn’t look much
further than within a 1km radius
of the river.”
After the February 22, 2011,
earthquake, the surroundings
Miss Allden had grown so fond
of all but disappeared.
Her house was one of the few
still habitable in her street, just
five houses down from the red
zone.
The stress of the situation was
added to Miss Allden’s attempts
to have a child through IVF in
2012, which eventually led to the
birth of her son Jack in 2013.
Seeing damage all around her,
Miss Allden realised she wanted
to do whatever she could to help
Richmond recover.
After quitting her job as a
travel agent to become a fulltime
mum, she decided to make

British expat’s love of Richmond
LEGEND: Cathy Allden has worked tirelessly to get Richmond
back on its feet post-quake.

Fire rages, homes at risk
this her mission. It all started
with a paddling pool.
“Me and a couple of other
mums put together a petition
and went and did a deputation
to the city council for the Long
Term Plan to get the paddling
pool at Avebury House fixed.
That got approved.”
Miss Allden said she got such
a buzz out of making this project
happen she became hungry to do
more.
“That was the catalyst really
that started the momentum of
a sense of empowerment that
we could actually do more and
engage more and take ownership
of the post-earthquake recovery
in Richmond.”
She then decided to turn
her attention to Richmond’s
green spaces and became the
co-founder of the Richmond
Community Garden.
The garden was started on the
edge of the River Rd red zone in
2017 and its contributors have
since worked on a number of
community planting and green
space development projects with
schools and other community
organisations.
Miss Allden said the space has
helped connect the Richmond
community.
“We’re showing skills and
growing food resilience and
really working together as a
village to support each other.”
Call to put toilets near QE II hydrotherapy pool
• By Matt Slaughter
THE DISTANCE between the
hydrotherapy pool and the toilets
at Taiora: QE II Recreation and
Sport Centre is causing pool
users embarrassment.
Parklands resident Aileen Trist
said the hydrotherapy pool was
most often used by people who
need close access to the toilet and
changing room facilities.
However, the hydrotherapy
pool is further away from the
facilities than any other pool at
the venue.
“People that use the
hydrotherapy pool use it because
they have a disability, whether
it’s a big one or a small one, they
have mobility problems.”
City council head of recreation,
sports and events Nigel Cox said
the hydrotherapy pool was 55m
away.
He said installing the pool
any closer to the facilities had
not been an option because the
budget for it was a late addition.
“The hydrotherapy pool was an
addition to the original design
and was included in April 2017
after construction had already
started.”
Mrs Trist said her husband
Tony has suffered two strokes
and is paralysed down his left
side.
He was almost left
embarrassed trying to get to the
facilities during the couple’s last
trip to QE II, she said.
Mrs Trist wants three
uni-sex toilet facilities to
be installed closer to the
hydrotherapy pool so others
like her husband do not have to
struggle in the future.
She discussed this proposal in
front of the Coastal-Burwood
Community Board at its meeting
last week.
The board requested the
city council seek urgent advice
on how the toilets could be
added.
Mr Cox said the city
council was aware of Mrs
Trist’s concerns, but there are
currently no plans and no
funding available to install more
accessible toilets.
Mrs Trist said it was not good
enough.
“I don’t want QE II known
as the pool complex in
Christchurch that’s always
having code browns because
we’re getting the highest
number.”

No garden
awards
ceremony
• By Matt Slaughter
A CEREMONY for the
Community Pride Garden
Awards will not be held for the
Coastal-Burwood Ward this
year.
It is the only ward in
Christchurch which will not
be hosting a ceremony for the
awards. The Coastal-Burwood-
Burwood Community Board
decided at a meeting last week the
$3000 cost of hosting the awards
was out of its budget.
Instead, the board will post
out certificates to the ward’s 142
award winners.
Board member Linda Stewart
opposed the decision.
“I see it as a negative to not
encourage the ward to be
colourful and pretty again and
pretty for everybody.”
She said gardening is a way
for many people to add some
vibrancy to damaged streets
and manage the stress which
came with being surrounded by
damage.
All the other members of the
board agreed that the Community
Pride Garden Awards should be
hosted once every two years to
save money.
Getting fighting fit for
• By Jess Gibson
AFTER A lifetime of low
self-esteem and a fear of injuries,
Jennine White felt unfit,
vulnerable and afraid to work
out.
Now the 33-year-old
performance reporting analyst
will take part in the 6km
City2Surf run on March 24
feeling better than ever.
Mrs White decided to focus on
her health in November after a
visit to her doctor to talk about
a shoulder injury turned into a
discussion about how her lack
of fitness was affecting her wellbeing.
Her doctor recommended
the ‘green prescription’, a free
programme which offers advice
from a physical activity coach.
She received a plan from her
coach Olivia Maisey and gained
the confidence to participate
in the City2Surf after she was
encouraged to see a personal
trainer, get injury rehabilitation
and see a life coach.
Mrs White is now positive she
can push herself to do the 6km
event if she alternates between a
brisk walk and a jog to take care
of her injury.
While she has finished with
the green prescription, she
said Miss Maisey has been like

personal trainer, life coach,
family and friends have all helped
her to stay motivated.
“People like me need someone
in our corner and someone to
help us fight through to get a
better lifestyle,” she said.
Mrs White said she is focussed
on her well-being rather
than losing weight, and feels
“amazing” because of it.
“My mental health is so much
better, I have reduced anxiety
and sleep so well. I feel like I’m
on another planet now,” said Mrs
White.
Miss Maisey said it was good to
see how extra support can make a
difference to someone’s lifestyle.
“She’s gone from doing barely
any exercise to absolutely
smashing it,” said Miss Maisey.
“She has done amazing.”

• By Sophie Cornish
ALAN HICKMAN was sick of
constantly being woken up by the
alarms going off at the fire station
a couple of doors down from his
house.
So the then 27-year-old decided
he might as well sign up for
volunteer service at the old New
Brighton Fire Station.
Now at age 68, Mr Hickman
will soon retire after more than
41 years of fighting fires.
Starting off as a volunteer in
1977, Mr Hickman remained at
his job as a property officer for
the Education Department (now
the Ministry of Education).
In 1981, he began moving
up the ranks as a volunteer,
becoming a senior firefighter and
then station officer in 1994.
Then in 1999, Mr Hickman
became the volunteer district
support officer for the New
Brighton station, in Hawke St,
which was a paid role, while he
also continued as a volunteer.
He was joined by long-time
friend Dave Chivers in the role.
In 2008, he became deputy
chief at the station.
Then in 2012, he moved into
the Christchurch City Fire
Station metro area office, where
he supported four brigades –
New Brighton, Brooklands,
Sumner and Lyttelton.
It wasn’t until 2013 that he
retired from being a volunteer
and continued as a career staff
member.
“I decided that working 24
hours a day was crazy.”
He can still recall the first ever
house fire he entered on New
Brighton Rd and admits it was
“pretty neat.”
“I was fascinated by it,
I didn’t know what to expect,” he
said.
“I managed to get a direct
hit on the home’s power board
with my hose. It exploded and
there was a blinding blue flash. I
thought, wow, this is what it is all
about.”
Ample training had prepared
Mr Hickman for this moment,
particularly the ‘safe person
concept’.
“You risk a little to save a lot.
You don’t risk a lot to save a
little.”
Mr Hickman was buying
lunch on Bower Ave when the
February 22, 2011, earthquake
hit. He raced back to the station
and the crew “self-responded”
and headed to North Beach Fish
Supply, where the roof had caved
in.
The owner had got out alive,
luckily. Little did Mr Hickman
know, his home on Waitaki Ave,
Bexley, had been destroyed by
liquefaction and was structurally
unsound.
“It was stuffed. So my family
and I moved into the station
. . . it was fun, it was different, but
we had things highly organised.”
Mr Hickman slept on the
floor in the storeroom of the
station, which was running on
a small amount of power from a
generator and no water.
The crew’s main jobs were to
ensure buildings were made safe
and chimneys were knocked
down. The generosity of people
during the time “amazed him.”
“People would stop us
everywhere just to give us food or
baking.”
While fighting fires, Mr
Hickman has rescued numerous
horses, cows, rabbits, cats and
dogs and has seen some “pretty

“You just have to get on with it
and deal with the job,” he said.
During the devastating 2017
Port Hills fires, Mr Hickman
worked behind the scenes,
ensuring all brigades were
supported with the resources
they needed.
Mr Chivers and Mr Hickman
became friends when they met
as volunteers and have fought
“thousands of fires since.”
“At one point, we were
attending more than 500 fires
a year. I’ve made a lifetime of
friends. I don’t want to mention
any more names, I’ll miss
someone out and then I’ll hear
about it,” he said.
A career highlight was in 2002,
when Mr Hickman received a

service. Although he will retire
soon, Mr Hickman plans to
continue volunteering for the

at the Anzac Fire Station on

Players push for selection
through early starts
SPORT
• By Gordon Findlater
THREE 6.50AM training
sessions a week have Shirley
Boys’ High School in full
swing ahead of this year’s UC
Championship.
Around 45 students are braving
an early start to the day on
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
to push their case for selection
in the first XV ahead of the
season.
“Everyone is playing other
sports so if we want really
good numbers. The only ones
who can’t make it are our rowers.
We have a really strong
volleyball culture at school so
we’d lose all of those players if
we trained in the afternoon,”
said Gibson.
SBHS also announced openside
flanker Kiarn Wilson as first
XV captain at the beginning of
the year, ahead of pre-season
training which began in early
February.
“He stood up a lot last year
and we gave it to him early
because we wanted him to start
thinking about who his vicecaptain
will be and how he will
lead the team,” said Gibson.
“He’s had a couple of months
in that role now and he’s grown
more in that role than I thought
was going to happen which is
awesome.
LEADER: New SBHS captain Kiarn Wilson makes a tackle on
Lincoln’s Will Gaulter in last year’s UC Championship.
SBHS will also break in their
new ground at QE II this year
when the UC Championship
begins in early May.
“It should be pretty good. I
think the contractors that have
put the field in have to keep it to
a certain standard for a certain
amount of years so the field
should be kept in pretty good
nick,” said Gibson.
With three fields at the new
school site, Gibson is also hopeful
the first XV may have a
dedicated field for training and
matches.
SBHS begin the UC
Championship with a trip to
Christ’s College on May 4.
Their first match at their new
home ground is against Lincoln
Combined on May 11.
RESULT: Ari Graham finished an impressive fourth in the under
23 category at the OTU Sprint Triathlon Oceania Championship.

Graham fourth in Tasmania
through strong bike leg
SOUTHSHORE triathlete Ari
Graham has finished fourth in
the under-23 category at the
OTU Sprint Triathlon Oceania
Championship in Devonport,
Tasmania.
Graham, 19, also did enough
to finish seventh overall in the
elite women’s category when she
finished in a time of 1hr 4min
46sec.
Graham was amongst the lead
group after the opening 750m
swim leg which she completed
in 10min 25sec. An impressive
20km bike leg which she completed
in 33min 58sec saw Graham
come into the transition
with a 25sec buffer as she hit the
pavement for the final 5km run.
However, she was chased
down by race winner Joanne
Miller at the 2km mark.
Graham finished the run
in 19min 3sec to finish fourth
behind fellow Kiwis Ainsley
Thorpe and Nicole Van Der
Kaay.
