Big break 

in the 

Big Apple 

• By Louis Day 

LYTTELTON’S Catherine Hay 

is set to learn from some of the 

best in the acting business. 

The 24-year-old will pack her 

bags for a 10-week prestigious 

acting programme in New 

York. 

She leaves next week. 

She was selected to take 

part in a course at Stella Adler 

Studio of Acting, where Robert 

De Niro studied before he 

became a twotime 

Academy 

Award 

winner. 

He won best 

supporting 

actor in 

1975 for the 

role of Vito 

Robert 

De Niro 

Corleone in 

The Godfather 

Part II and 

best actor for 

playing Jake LaMotta in Raging 

Bull in 1981. 

Hay said she had mixed 

emotions after finding out 

she was accepted into the 

course. 

“I’m excited but also aware of 

the challenge it is going to be,” 

she said.

Peacock 

dispute 

escalates 

after five 

killed 

www.apollopoweryoga.com 


FIVE WILD peacocks have been 

shot on a farm near Lyttelton as a 

neighbourhood dispute escalates. 

Brenchley Farm owner Sue 

Stubenvoll said the peacocks were 

killed after they wandered onto 

her property. She said it was done 

to stop them eating endangered 

geckos and skinks on the farm. 

The cull has shocked neighbour 

Janelle Wills. She told Bay 

Harbour News she needed more 

time to relocate the peacocks 

which gather at her property to 

be fed. 

In February, Ms Stubenvoll sent 

a legal letter to Miss Wills, saying 

she had the right to shoot the peacocks 

under the Impounding Act. 

She gave Miss Wills four weeks 

notice of what would happen if 

they came onto her property. 

Miss Wills said the shootings 

were “inhumane.” 

“There is no other word for it. It 

is affecting all of my family,” she 

said.

from the editor’s desk 

YOU WOULDN’T want to be a peacock 

strutting about in the hills above Lyttelton 

at the moment. 

That’s because if you stray onto Sue 

Stubenvoll’s farm you’re likely to get 

shot (see page 1). Stubenvoll has followed 

through on her threat to shoot wild peacocks which stray onto 

her property. 

That has upset neighbour Janelle Wills, who the peacocks have 

been heading to for a feed. 

Stubenvoll says the peacocks are also interested in snacking on 

endangered skinks and geckos she says are on her farm. And that 

is the justification for getting the gun out. 

Wills has been relocating the peacocks and wanted more time. 

She is justifiably angry. I suspect others will be too. 

And Stubenvoll’s plan to eat the peacocks? Interesting.

Support for seaplane takes off 


NOT EVERYONE in Diamond 

Harbour is against a plan to 

fly seaplanes into Lyttelton 

Harbour. 

Resident Jane Davison says the 

seaplanes will provide a boost to 

the economy. 

“I think the harbour should 

be welcoming 

to commercial 

business 

opportunity 

where it can. We 

don’t want to 

go backwards, 

Jane 

Davison 

Richard 

Suggate 

we want to go 

forwards,” she said. 

“I would have 

thought that there 

is potential to 

provide locals with 

job opportunities, 

and if people come 

to the harbour 

to do a seaplane 

flight, who is to 

say they won’t 

stop in at a bakery 

and buy a doughnut or a coffee 

somewhere?” 

In last week’s Bay Harbour 

News, Diamond Harbour 

Community Association 

chairman Richard Suggate said 

the group made a submission to 

the Civil Aviation Authority in 

opposition to Rangiora-based 

company Peninsula Air Ltd’s 

plan to construct a waterdrome 

in the harbour. 

The proposed 1km long 

runway would be located 

between Rapaki and Quail 

Island and provide seaplanes 

with an area to take off and land. 


SCENIC: A company’s bid to emulate the Sydney seaplane 

experience in Lyttelton has received a mixed response from 

residents. 

It would also take people on 

scenic tours of the peninsula. 

“We are concerned about the 

effects on other users of the 

harbour, such as waka ama, 

kayaks, swimmers, yachts, 

motorboats, the list goes on,” Mr 

Suggate said. 

Peninsula Air Ltd directors 

Mark Christensen and Grant 

Edmundson did not return Bay 

Harbour News’ phone calls. 

Mrs Davison said the 

association’s view does not 

represent the entire community. 

She said the majority of people 

she has spoken to in Diamond 

Harbour are in favour of the 

plan. 

“The community association 

has about 100 members and 

about 20 people turned up to 

their AGM. They do some good 

work but I think it is wrong 

to assume that number of 

membership could represent a 

community of over 1000 people,” 

she said. 

Mr Suggate said the 

association does not claim to 

represent the entire community. 

“There are always a range of 

opinions about any subject – I 

was expressing the views of the 

association, not the community,” 

he said. 

Public submissions close at 

the end of the month and can 

be emailed to aerodromes@caa.

Diamond Harbour firefighter fifth up tower 


FIREFIGHTERS from across the 

Bay Harbour News area raced 

up the Sky Tower’s 1103 steps on 

Saturday to raise money for those 

with leukaemia and blood cancer. 

The effort was part of the 15th 

annual Firefighter Sky Tower 

Stair Challenge where participants 

heaved 25kg of gear up 52 

flights of stairs. 

Diamond Harbour Volunteer 

Fire Brigade member Mark 

Patterson was the fastest 

volunteer up the tower with a 

time of 10min 6sec and was fifth 

overall out of more than 1000 

firefighters. 

“I was pretty chuffed actually, 

because I had been a bit crook 

building up to it. I was pretty 

nervous that I was not going to do 

that well so I am really stoked to 

get the time I did,” he said. 

Three firefighters from the 

Diamond Harbour brigade raised 

$3500. In total, the Auckland 

event raised $1 million. 

The Lyttelton Volunteer Fire 

Brigade raised $15,000 for the 

cause. 

Lyttelton chief Mark Buckley, 

who was part of the support crew, 

was immensely proud of the 

effort shown from his team. 

“It was really good to see, I 

have got a great deal of respect for 

them and their enthusiasm was 

just fantastic,” he said. 

Six firefighters from the Governors 

Bay volunteer brigade 

managed to raise $11,000. 

Akaroa Volunteer Fire Brigade 

member Jeroen Hartman also 

raised $1768.

ROCK ON: Catherine Hay in 

costume for We Will Rock You. 

•From page 1 

“I am feeling like I am ready 

for a new challenge though, and 

hoping to soak up whatever they 

throw at me over there.” 

Hay usually sticks to musical 

theatre but is hoping to branch 

out during the course. 

“I am doing this acting 

course and throwing myself in 

the deep end without the security 

of being able to hide behind a 

song.” 

She has participated in a 

number of professional musical 

productions, including a leading 

role in We Will Rock You. 

“It was my first kind of lead 

role in a bigger company, it was 

at the Isaac Theatre Royal, two 

and a half weeks of shows, a 

1200-seat audience, doing seven 

shows a week and it was rock 

music so it was very vocally 

demanding and then trying to 

balance a day job with that was a 

challenge.” 

Hay is currently balancing 

her time as an organisational 

psychology consultant, singing 

teacher and aspiring actor. 

She said she would sometimes 

spend 30 to 35 hours a week in 

rehearsals while balancing her 

other commitments. 

She is hoping the 10-week 

acting course will help her transition 

into acting full-time. 

“My goal is to become 

competitive in auditioning for 

professional roles throughout 

New Zealand and possibly even 

going over to London for a little 

bit.” 

Five wild peacocks shot 

•From page 1 

Miss Wills said 10 peacocks 

had been relocated with the help 

of Serendipity Animal Rescue. 

But others hadn’t been because 

they would flee when trying to be 

captured. 

More time was needed to catch 

the peacocks, she said. 

Department of Conservation 

senior biodiversity ranger Anita 

Spencer said there were rare 

geckos and skinks in the area. 

“DOC hasn’t carried out any 

formal surveys to confirm there 

are lizards on the farm, but we 

understand a herpetologist has 

visited the property and identified 

the lizards,” she said. 

However, Ms Spencer said 

chickens posed the same threat to 

geckos and skinks that peacocks 

did, which Ms Stubenvoll keeps 

on her farm. 

Ms Stubenvoll said her chickens 

were not eating the geckos 

and skinks. 

“You can tell from the droppings 

of a chicken what it has 

been eating, if it has been eating 

something with blood in it the 

droppings go black. Guess what 

the colour of the peacock droppings 

are? Black! The chickens’ is 

a wispy white.” 

Ms Stubenvoll also told Bay 

Harbour News she plans to eat 

the peacocks, and more will be 

culled. 

“It would be an awful waste to 

not eat them,” she said. 

Miss Wills said she was “disgusted” 

by the plan to eat the 

peacocks.

Sharp perspex shards 

left on toddler swing 


VANDALS left a 

sinister calling card at 

the Diamond Harbour 

Playcentre – sharp perspex 

on a toddler swing. 

Police said the act could 

have caused injury. 

“A mindless and 

dangerous act that could 

cause serious harm to 

babies,” said Sergeant 

Franco Lovrich. 

Diamond Harbour 

Playcentre president Anna 

Blundell 

found the 

perspex 

window 

of the 

boat in its 

playground 

Franco 

Lovrich 

had been 

kicked in 

on Monday 

last week, with shards 

scattered all over the 

ground. 

She then saw someone 

had placed the shards on 

the swing with the sharp 

edges facing upwards. 

Miss Blundell cut her hand 

removing the shards from 

the swing. 

Sergeant Lovrich

described the act as 

mindless and dangerous. 

“We will certainly be 

following up on this with 

the view to potentially 

fingerprinting items at the 

scene, as well as looking 

at their security measures 

and providing advice to 

them where necessary,” 

he said. “We also ask the 

public for any information 

and that any suspicious 

behaviour is reported to 

us.” 

Miss Blundell, who has 

three children of her own 

attending the playcentre, 

was disgusted by the 

incident. “It makes me 

very angry that someone 

would intentionally hurt 

our children, the plastic 

was in the baby toddler 

swings that is for under 

two-year-olds. It just 

makes me angry that they 

think it is funny to do 

that,” she said. 

Miss Blundell said 

vandalism was something 

the playcentre used to 

experience quite regularly 

before security cameras 

were put in six months 

ago. 

•Any one with 

information on the 

incident should phone 

police on 328 7905 or 

provide information 

anonymously through 

Crime Stoppers on 

0800 555 111. 

Dancer stepping up to world stage 


SAM Richardson wants 

to become one of the best 

dancers in the world. Now, 

the 19-year-old from Mt 

Pleasant has the chance to 

get there. 

He is one of three 

performer from Team 

Cozy crew, which 

has qualified for the 

World Hip Hop Dance 

Championship in the 

United States in August. 

Richardson is set to 

dance alongside Caleb 

Gopal, 18, and Chloe 

Wright, 15, in Phoenix. 

They finished second in 

the mini-crew category 

at the Hip Hop New 

Zealand Championship 

in Auckland last month 

and were one of just three 

teams from the category 

to qualify for the world 

champs. 

Richardson balances 

full-time work as a 

barber with weekly dance 

practices. 

“I just dance as soon as 

I finish work, it’s pretty 

busy, but I enjoy both of 

them so it’s no stress,” he 

said. 

The crew will have to 

showcase three styles of 

hip-hop dancing at the 

world champs. Richardson 

feels confident ahead of 

the competition. 

“I think we can do 

it, we have just got that 

chemistry. It would mean 

everything if we got it.” 

The styles include 

breakdancing, house and 

new school swag. 

The team will pay 

for some of the trip 

themselves, but are 

looking for donations and 

sponsorship.

Ranulph Fiennes – Mad, Bad and 

Dangerous to Know 

Ranulph Fiennes has travelled to the most dangerous and 

inaccessible places on earth, almost died countless times, lost 

nearly half his fingers to frostbite, raised millions of pounds for 

charity and been awarded a polar medal and an OBE. He has 

been an elite soldier, an athlete, a mountaineer, an explorer, a 

bestselling author and nearly replaced Sean Connery as James 

Bond. 

In his autobiography he describes how he led expeditions all over 

the world and became the first person to travel to both poles on 

land. He tells of how he discovered the lost city of Ubar in Oman 

and attempted to walk solo and unsupported to the North Pole - the expedition that cost him 

several fingers, and very nearly his life. 

His most recent challenge was scaling the north face of the Eiger, one of the most awesome 

mountaineering challenges in the world. Sir Ranulph Twisleton-Wykeham-Fiennes OBE, 3rd 

Baronet, looks back on a life lived at the very limits of human endeavour.

See you in the Piazza 

By Frances Mayes 

The Roman Forum, the Leaning Tower, the Piazza San Marcothese 

are the sights synonymous with Italy. But such landmarks 

only scratch the surface of this magical country’s offerings. In 

See You in the Piazza, Frances Mayes introduces us to the Italy 

only the locals know, as she and her husband, Ed, eat and drink 

their way through fifteen regions - from Friuli to Sardinia. Along 

the way, she seeks out the cultural and historic gems not found 

in traditional guidebooks. Frances conjures the enchantment of 

the backstreets, the hubbub of the markets, the dreamlike wonder 

of that space between lunch and dinner when a city cracks open 

to those who would wander or when a mind is drawn into the 

pages of a delicious book - and discloses to us the secrets that only someone who is on 

intimate terms with a place could find.

From Scratch 

A Memoir of Love, Sicily, and Finding Home 

By Tembi Locke 

A poignant and transporting cross-cultural love story set against 

the lush backdrop of the Sicilian countryside, where one woman 

discovers the healing powers of food, family, and unexpected 

grace in her darkest hour. It was love at first sight when Tembi 

met professional chef, Saro, on a street in Florence. There was 

just one problem: Saro’s traditional Sicilian family did not approve 

of him marrying a black American woman, an actress no less. 

However, the couple, heartbroken but undeterred, forges on. They 

build a happy life in Los Angeles, with fulfilling careers, deep 

friendships and the love of their lives: a baby girl they adopt at 

birth. Eventually, they reconcile with Saro’s family just as he faces a formidable cancer that 

will consume all their dreams. From Scratch chronicles three summers Tembi spends in 

Sicily with her daughter, Zoela, as she begins to piece together a life without her husband in 

his tiny hometown hamlet of farmers. Where once Tembi was estranged from Saro’s family 

and his origins, now she finds solace and nourishment—literally and spiritually—at her 

mother in law’s table. In the Sicilian countryside, she discovers the healing gifts of simple 

fresh food, the embrace of a close knit community, and timeless traditions and wisdom that 

light a path forward. All along the way she reflects on her and Saro’s incredible romance—an 

indelible love story that leaps off the pages.

THE FIRST walls of the 

new Redcliffs School went 

up last week. 

Pupils watched on as the 

pre-cast concrete 

walls were placed 

on Friday. 

Principal Rose 

McInerney was 

delighted with the 

progress being 

made. 

“After a lot of 

uncertainty, it is 

great to see that it 

is definitely going 

to happen. There 

were so many 

bridges that we had to 

cross to get here, but it is 

great knowing that we will

have our school return to 

the community next year,” 

she said. 

Pupils will move into 

the new school on April 

27 and the official opening 

will be held in 

June. 

Prime Minister 

Jacinda Ardern 

said she will “do 

everything she 

can” to be at the 

opening of the 

school in a letter to 

pupils. 

Ms McInerney 

is confident Ms 

Ardern will be 

there. 

“We are pretty sure 

that she will be there. We 

are really excited that she 

wants to come, she knows 

that we have been on the 

biggest journey to get 

here,” she said. 

After a community 

campaign to keep the 

school open, then- 

Education Minister 

Hekia Parata reversed 

her decision to close it 

in November 2016. 

It was decided the school 

would relocate to Redcliffs 

Park, sparking a separate 

unsuccessful campaign 

by the Friends of Redcliffs 

Park to rebuild the school 

at its Main Rd site.

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding 

“LET’S GET the bugger over 

there and see what can happen.” 

That was the plan behind 

a fundraising effort that has 

gone into getting Lytteltonbased 

performer Tom Trevella 

to England to work under 

established actor and director 

Adrian Rawlins. 

At the end of the month, the 

long-standing Lyttelton Arts 

Factory actor will fly to the town 

of Beverley, near Hull, to star in 

a contemporary murder mystery 

play named Chippy, which will 

premiere at the East Riding 

Theatre. 

He will be working under the 

direction of Rawlins, who is best 

known for his role of James Potter 

in the Harry Potter films and 

Arthur Kidd in the 1989 horror 

film The Woman in Black. 

More than $3500 was raised 

at a quiz night on Saturday held 

at the theatre company to help 

cover Trevella’s travel costs – 

including airfares, train tickets, 

insurance and visas. 

Trevella said it was really 

“humbling” to see the Lyttelton 

community turn out to support 

his trip overseas and was looking 

forward to being able to give 

back next year. 

Chippy is earmarked to be 

performed in the LAF next

the East Riding Theatre in an original play by Joe Bennett, named Chippy. The show will come to

year. 

“It is a chance for me to broaden 

my horizon and get to work 

in a different environment,” 

Trevella said. 

Trevella described Rawlins 

as an “actor’s director” and was 

most looking forward to taking 

advantage of his knowledge and 

experience. 

“Just working with a professional, 

he has been working in 

the industry for so many years 

He is going to have a lot to pass 

on,” Trevella said. 

The opportunity for Trevella 

to travel overseas is born out 

of the strong professional relationship 

between LAF 

creative director Mike Friend 

and Rawlins. 

The relationship between the 

two theatre companies has led 

to the formation of an artist

exchange programme which has 

given actors the opportunity to 

travel between England and New 

Zealand. 

In the past four years, 

the theatre companies have 

collaborated on a range of 

projects. It has seen English 

actresses Annie Kirkman and 

Hester Ullyart travel to the city 

to perform in The Butler Dresses 

Again at LAF. 

Ullyart also returned to LAF 

this year to be mentored by 

Friend to direct the show of Our

The show will see Trevella 

perform alongside Ullyart, 

who has worked at a range of 

theatre companies including 

Northern Broadsides, West 

Yorkshire Playhouse and 

Sheffield Theatres. 

Trevella said the beauty of having 

worked with Ullyart before is 

already having a rapport which 

makes it easier because there 

is only two weeks to rehearse 

together. 

As well as heading to England, 

he has numerous projects on 

the go including television pilot

He will also perform in The

Residents pleased with removal of Balmoral Hill fence 


THE FENCE at the bottom 

of Balmoral Hill has been 

removed. 

The fence, which was put there 

following the February 22, 2011, 

earthquake, was removed on 

Tuesday after the city council 

found it was no longer needed. 

Over the last 18 months the 

city council has been undertaking 

a review and clean-up of the 

fences remaining around the 

city post-earthquake. 

“There was a delay in removing 

the fence as there was a 

redundant drain that had to 

be made safe. As this has happened, 

and other maintenance 

was undertaken 

(trimming of vegetation), 

the fence has been removed,’’ 

said city council 

delivery transport and 

planning manager Lynette 

Ellis. 

Redcliffs Residents 

Association chairwoman 

Christine Toner was delighted 

to see the fence removed. 

“It is just fantastic, we are just 

absolutely thrilled about it,” she 

said. 

Linwood-Central-Heathcote 

Community Board member 

Darrell Latham thought the 

removal of the fence 

would enhance the entrance 

into the village. 

“This is a such 

stunning location 

with beautiful cliffs 

and coastal areas 

through which 

thousands of people 

Christine transit daily. The 

Toner 

removal of the fence 

and the trimming of the 

vegetation is really positive 

and it is another box ticked 

in the return to normality for 

residents on this side of town,” 

he said.

$150k boost 

for harbour 

restoration 

A PLAN to restore the condition 

of Lyttelton Harbour has received 

a $150,000 boost. 

Whaka-Ora Healthy Harbour 

partnership chairwoman Yvette 

Couch-Lewis, of Ngāti Wheke, 

said the funding, which comes 

from the Ministry for the 

Environment, will go towards 

consultation with farmers and 

implementing some of the 

projects which come out of the 

consultation. 

“People who live in the harbour 

basin all care deeply about the 

land and the harbour. We’ll be 

working with the local farmers 

and landowners to re-establish 

wetlands, undertake stream 

plantings and take other steps 

that will reduce the sediments and 

contaminants that are going in 

the harbour.” 

The partnership consists of 

Ngāti Wheke, Te Rūnanga o Ngāi 

Tahu, Environment Canterbury, 

the city council and Lyttelton Port 

Company, with input from the 

community.

Getting away for Mother’s Day 

JUST IN CASE you didn’t read last 

week’s column, we all got away for a 

short family vacation/Mother’s Day 

escape to Greymouth at the end of 

last week. 

Vittoria also only naps once a day 

now. It’s a tough transition for me. 

Whatever, don’t judge me parents of 

older kids. 

Pro-tip; a long car ride across the 

Southern Alps can give the illusion 

of a much longer nap time. As long 

as they can’t ask: “Are we there yet?” 

We managed to get away for 

our trip a mere 40min after our 

scheduled departure time. 

Vittoria went straight 

into her nap as we left the city, 

but with a couple of stops 

through the mountains 

(including the wonderful Otira 

Stagecoach Hotel) the total trip 

took longer than it would have on 

the bus. 

I actually enjoyed that though, it 

felt more like an old-school Kiwi 

whānau getaway. We even stayed in 

a holiday park and had a pub meal 

on the first night. 

Love it. 

We managed to get in a fair 

amount of sightseeing and 

relaxation in a couple of days, with 

Friday’s perfect weather making a 

great accompaniment to the views 

at Punakaiki. 

I even managed to sneak in a tour 

at the Monteith’s Brewery. Just me 

VITTORIA 

& Matt 

though, can you imagine taking a 

toddler to a brewery? 

For Vittoria, the best part 

was quite probably the 

playground at the holiday 

park. Unfortunately, it started 

pouring down with rain not long 

after we arrived so she only got to 

play on it for like five minutes on 

day one. 

You should have seen how 

heartbroken she was when I took 

her back to the room. 

There were “everyone-thinks- 

I’m-a-bad-parent” level crying and 

screaming. 

The next day, her reaction 

when she saw that it was still there 

and able to be played on 

was awesome. She actually said 

“wow.” 

She’s not even talking yet but the 

playground managed to coax out 

what could be considered an actual 

recognisable word. 

Damn, that’s a good playground. 

To finish off our trip we took 

even longer to come home on 

Saturday, adding in more stops.

and support businesses in your community 

Portray your love story, your way 

Planning a wedding is a huge project. There is so much to do - choosing a location and 

venue, invitations, the dress, music, cake, catering, the guest list, just to name a few 

tasks. But top of your list should be finding the right celebrant to officiate the ceremony. 

Meet Robyn O’Brien. 

THESE days a majority of NZ weddings are 

conducted by independent wedding celebrants. 

They offer an alternative to the traditional church or 

registry office ceremonies giving couples flexibility 

and choice for their service. 

Robyn is a locally based NZ registered Marriage 

Celebrant and she’d love to help you organise your 

special day. 

“The most important day in your life is the time 

where, in front of family and friends, you declare your 

love to each other for the rest of your life,” said Robyn. 

I’m 100% committed to guiding you through 

the entire ceremony process, organising the legal 

requirements, rehearsing and conducting the 

ceremony ensuring that your special day runs 

perfectly. It’s so important that your ceremony 

tells your love story, reflects your personalities and 

includes your ideas. 

Whether you’re planning something traditional, 

casual, themed or a little bit different, I can work 

with you to achieve your ultimate ceremony with 

the least amount of stress. You may want to include 

readings, poems, family traditions, children, even 

animals - nothing is impossible! I’m confident at 

public speaking and I love weddings. Having attended 

a ceremony writing course I know how important it is 

to portray your love story your way. 

As well as officiating your occasion, Robyn can 

provide her own PA system and is also a calligraphist, 

so is able to offer a calligraphy service for invitations 

and place name tags. 

Ceremonies are not limited to marriages. Robyn 

also performs name giving, renewal of vows, 

anniversaries, blessings, commemorations, pets and 

animals, and elopements. 

Here’s what happy couple Rebecca & Louis said: 

Thank you Robyn for helping us create a beautiful 

wedding ceremony that was special and unique for us 

as a couple. We really appreciate the work you put in to 

make the ceremony run smoothly, particularly since our 

vows were multilingual. With your help. we could enjoy 

a wedding ceremony which was truly our own, and 

one in which we could honour our respective cultural 

background. 

To ensure you find the right celebrant, Robyn offers 

a no obligation first meeting so you can decide if she 

is the right celebrant for you.

lend a helping hand 

On tuesday 7th of May, the Mitre10 Mega Ferrymead team lent a 

helping hand to the Mt Pleasant community centre. 

After our original date was postponed due to poor 

weather, opening the curtains a week later to see 

a drizzly overcast day wasn’t all that appealing for 

the Mitre10 Mega Ferrymead Helping Hands team. 

However, with forecasts clearing the decision was made 

to chuck on the ‘wet weathers’ and get stuck into a bit 

of DIY for the local Mount Pleasant Community Centre. 

Three key projects were on the menu for the day. The 

first was building five raised Macrocarpa garden beds 

on the empty lawn beside the community centre. 

Varying in sizes, the team quickly notched together a 

smorgasbord of healthy beds the 

local community can now grow, 

share and enjoy seasoned vegetables 

all year round. 

The second project included clearing, 

levelling and paving a run-down BBQ 

pit. Deciding on a paving pattern 

was a hot debate between teams but 

after drawing straws a design was finally agreed upon. 

A big thank you to the team at Firth Industries, who 

provided all the pavers for the job. 

Although it wasn’t needed on the day our last task 

included erecting a shade sail to complete the BBQ 

space. The team at Mitre 10 Mega Ferrymead were 

proud of their efforts on the day and wish to thank 

the friendly locals who gave up their time to get these 

projects over the line. We trust the Mount Pleasant 

Community will enjoy their new and improved outdoor 

space.

One of our projects was to build raised garden beds in varying sizes for the local community to grow, share and enjoy. 

a message from 

the community centre... 

"The Mt Pleasant Memorial Community Gardens will 

provide a place for locals to meet and share their 

gardening expertise. It will also be used by the children 

at Bays Kidsfirst to learn about gardening, " said the 

project convenor, Jocelyn Papprill. "The memorial" in 

the name refers to both the fact that the original hall 

was a war memorial, and the present hall is a memorial 

to the 2011 earthquakes. 

We would like to thank the help we received from the 

Christchurch City Council Sustainability and Innovation 

fund, Mitre 10 Mega Ferrymead and their Helping

was devastated by a storm in 

2000 – were set to be removed 

during April but will now 

be removed at the end of the 

month. 

The delay comes after 

equipment required for the 

removal project was needed on 

the West Coast to help with the 

clean-up following the flooding 

in March. 

The work will now begin in 

the final week of this month and 

is expected to take four weeks, 

depending on sea and weather 

conditions. 

City council head of parks 

Andrew Rutledge said it was 

important for the equipment to 

have been diverted to help on 

the West Coast. 

“Although this has caused a 

small delay, we are happy the 

pile removal will start at the end 

of the month, improving the 

safety of the popular recreational 

spot for the different people and 

groups that use the bay for water 

activities.” 

The piles will become part of 

the Lyttelton Port Company’s 

reclamation work, saving on 

disposal costs. 

A wider piece of work is being 

carried out by the city council to 

develop Naval Point, which will 

involve public consultation later 

this year.

Now 

Cleaning up our rivers 

and cooking meals 

Ferrymead 

Rotary Club 

member 

Barbara Crooks 

writes about 

how the charity 

has been giving 

back to the 

community 

FERRYMEAD Rotarians have 

been hands-on in the community 

over the past few weeks. 

They got their hands dirty 

clearing rubbish from the 

McCormacks Bay causeway, 

then made sure those hands were 

clean as they scrubbed up a few 

days later to cook an evening 

meal at Ronald McDonald 

House. 

Tanya Jenkins, a Ferrymead 

Rotary member and Mother 

of All Clean Ups co-ordinator, 

identified some encouraging 

trends. There were more helpers 

than last year, and there was 

less rubbish. Even so, the 835 

volunteers from 42 groups 

gathered 3.6 tonnes (588 bags) 

and 61 car tyres. 

This was the clean-up’s seventh 

year. It encompassed the Avon 

and Heathcote rivers, as well 

as the estuary. It was organised 

by the Avon-Heathcote Estuary 

Ihutai Trust, the Avon River 

and Heathcote River networks, 

with City Care collecting and 

disposing of the bags. 

A few days later, Ferrymead 

Rotarians cooked dinner for 

out-of-town families staying at 

Ronald McDonald House while 

their children receive treatment 

at Christchurch Hospital. The 

facility caters for children 

under-21 who have to come 

to Christchurch for long-term 

treatment. 

Ferrymead Rotary has joined a 

growing number of organisations 

and businesses on the cooking 

roster. There is no upper or lower 

limit – some do it once a year, 

others much more regularly. 

This was Ferrymead’s second 

time, and the crew kept it simple 


– chicken legs, roast vegetables, 

coleslaw and apple pie for 45 or 

so. It might not have been cordon 

bleu, but it got a big tick from 

one Nelson 12-year-old: “That 

was a lot better than the hospital 

meals,” she said. 

The families – some of whom 

have to stay in Christchurch for 

months because the children 

need care not available in their 

home towns – were unanimous 

in their appreciation of the 

difference it makes not having 

to organise and cook after a long 

day at the hospital. 

And it was a salutary 

experience for the ‘chefs’ as they 

sat down to share their meal with 

youngsters and parents. They felt 

they had done something that 

was very worthwhile and much 

appreciated, and they learnt a lot 

from hearing the families’ stories. 

Removal of piles likely to start at end of month 

WRECKAGE:

piles at Naval

Sumner’s club day comeback 

SPORT 

• By Gordon Findlater 

CLUB DAY was celebrated 

in style at St Leonards Square 

when Sumner’s premier side 

overturned a 17-point deficit 

to beat Sydenham 28-22 on 

Saturday. 

Sumner found themselves 

in a tricky situation after just 

20min. A try 

to winger 

Charles 

Oswald was 

all the they 

had on the 

board while 

Sydenham 

ran rampant 

to take a 5-22 

Martin 

Dodgson 

lead. 

“We got 

ourselves into 

a hole playing some horrible 

rugby. It was reminiscent of 

the first five rounds . . . we were 

absolutely gone,” said coach 

Martin Dodgson. 

However, Sumner didn’t 

replicate the trend that saw them 

start the season with five straight 

losses. A try to Mathew Tuala 

and a penalty try following a 

high shot on Oswald before the 

end of the half saw them turn the 

tide to trail 21-22 at the break. 

“It shows how far the team 

has come, especially the leaders. 

The leaders were really calm and 

came up with some really clear 

solutions and then the boys went 

to work,” Dodgson said. 

As the home crowd came 

alive, Sumner dominated the 

second half. Their set piece and 

defence came to the fore, which 

resulted in Sydenham being kept 

scoreless – the first time Sumner 

hadn’t conceded points in a half 

this year. A converted try from 

halfback Hayden O’Donnell 

proved to be the difference. 

“That second half was really 

reminiscent of the second half 

against Lincoln University. We 

forced them into a lot of errors, 

which caused a lot of set piece 

which we were dominating,” said 

Dodgson. 

The win was Sumner’s third 

on the trot following results 

against Lincoln University and 

Canterbury University. They 

still have a mathematical chance 

of sneaking into the top six for 

the second half of the season. 

However, they will need other 

results to go their way in the final 

three rounds of the competition’s 

Bays fight to achieve their SFL goal 

FERRYMEAD Bays are entering 

do or die territory in their bid to 

qualify for the Southern Football 

League. 

Bays are two points off a spot 

in the Mainland Premier League 

top five after a 0-2 away loss to 

Nelson Suburbs at the weekend. 

The top five teams at the 

conclusion of the MPL will 

qualify for this year’s SFL. 

With five rounds remaining 

in the MPL, Saturday’s match 

against Western AFC at 

Ferrymead Park will be crucial 

in their bid to make the cut for 

the SFL. 

When Bays and Western met 

on April 6, Western took the 

honours 1-2 at Walter Park. 

Over the weekend, keeper 

Adam Highfield ensured Bays 

went into the break 0-0 in 

Nelson. He did well to shut out 

Nelson Suburbs in the second 

half. However, with just 13min to 

play, Nelson Suburbs broke the 

deadlock through Ben Wright. 

Six minutes later Cameron 

Gordon found the back of the net 

from a Ryan Stewart corner to 

double the lead. 

Bays will also play in the 

second round of the Chatham 

Cup after a 2-1 win over Halswell 

United. 

They will meet FC Twenty 11 

on Queen’s Birthday for a place 

in the next round. 

SUCCESS: (Clockwise) – Halfback Hayden O’Donnell scored 

Sumner’s match-winning try against Sydenham. Harry Hawkes 

and Liam Taylor picked up awards after the Sumner Kingfish’s 

70-30 win over Halswell-Wigram on club day. The Sumner 

Sharks started club day early with a 32-5 win at Christchurch 

Park on Friday night. 

first phase. Other club day 

results saw the Sumner Sharks 

start their celebration early in the 

classics division with a 32-5 win 

over the Christchurch Canardly 

Heroes at Christchurch Park 

on Friday night. Meanwhile, 

Sumner’s reserve side went down 

5-63 to Sydenham’s reserves at St 

Leonards Square. 

Sumner and Suburbs’ 

combined under-16 girls team 

also played at St Leonards 

on Saturday, going down to 

Prebbleton 22-50. 

But it was a club day to 

remember for Sumner’s junior 

teams. Their 12 junior sides 

all played at McCormacks Bay 

and enjoyed huge success. The 

only loss of the day came in 

an all-Sumner affair, meaning 

all opposition sides were left 

winless. 

On Saturday, Sumner’s 

premier side will face Burnside, 

which are in ninth spot, tied 

with Sumner on 17 points. The 

match at Burnside Park kicks off 

at 2.45pm. 

Metro premier standings: 

Christchurch 33pts, 1; Lincoln

Lexus UX – gateway into the luxury brand 

Motoring 

Ross Kiddie 

I NEVER would have picked the 

change of direction that Lexus has 

travelled in the last few years. 

The company came onto the 

global market in 1989 with a 

large sedan and since then sport 

sedans, coupes and convertibles, 

along with a luxury four-wheeldrive 

vehicle, have accounted for 

a large part of its sales. 

However, in recent times, to 

capitalise on the global demand 

for sport utility vehicles, Lexus 

has changed direction slightly, 

there are a large number of SUVs 

in the company’s line-up, and it is 

ever-increasing. 

Just recently, a compact SUV 

has been launched by Lexus. 

Badged simply UX, it sits beneath 

the small-to-medium NX and 

RX. If you think of Toyota RAV4 

size, then the UX is about that 

stature, however, it gets a heap of 

upmarket kit that clearly has it 

sitting in the luxury car category. 

The UX lands here in force, 

there are seven front-wheel-drive 

and all-wheel-drive variants, all 

are 2-litre powered, yet there is 

the option of hybrid technology. 

From what I’m picking up from 

Lexus New Zealand and at local 

dealer level, the hybrid is the 

car to beat and it is the subject 

of this evaluation , an F-Sport 

Limited to be exact. It sits at 

$72,900. 

Incidentally, the UX hits the 

showroom floors at $59,900 for 

a 2-litre petrol, while a rangetopping 

4WD Limited hybrid sits 

at $75,900. 

I’ve driven a lot of hybrids out 

of the Lexus and Toyota stables 

recently, and I agree, the UX in 

hybrid form takes a lot of beating. 

For one the hybrid system has 

become what I would call normal. 

Whereas once hybrids took a little 

understanding and a technique 

to drive them effectively, that 

has all changed. Today’s hybrid 

works much like any other petrolpowered 

car, it feels just so right, 

and in Lexus form the refinement 

within the driveline mechanicals 

makes it hard to detect any 

transfer of power between electric 

delivery and when the petrol 

engine kicks in. 

Of course, there are many 

other benefits other than the 

sophistication, the UX hybrid is 

rated with a 4.5-litre per 100km 

(63mpg) combined cycle fuel 

usage rating. That claim sits 

well with the readout on the 

evaluation car, it was showing 

around 7l/100km (40mpg) when 

I took it back to the dealership. 

The UX is also quick, that’s the 

LEXUS UX F-SPORT: Two-litre engine with or without hybrid 

option. 

benefit of electric delivery. It will 

scamper to 100km/h in 8.6sec, 

and will complete an overtake 

manoeuvre in 5sec. The latter 

is attributed to the solid midrange 

delivery between electric 

and petrol, the UX has dynamic 

performance, Lexus claiming 

power outputs of 135kW and 

188Nm. 

Not only is the UX a spirited 

drive, it also handles with aplomb. 

I guess it doesn’t wear a F-Sport 

badge for nothing, the UX has 

accurate corner turn-in and 

definite steering feel. 

This is something Lexus does 

so well, the steering is involving 

and communicative. Riding on 

beautiful Bridgestone Turanza 

tyres (225/50 x 18in), there is a lot 

of rubber in contact with the road 

and it shows, grip levels are high 

even without the four-wheeldrive 

option. 

There is little sensation power 

is coming out the front wheels 

only, the UX is balanced and 

controlled and, of course, you 

get an amazingly compliant ride, 

traditional with all Lexus models. 

That luxury feel doesn’t end 

there, the cockpit and cabin area 

is plush, the way Lexus create 

interiors is a real credit. The test 

car was trimmed with white 

leather, yet there are contrasting 

elements which work effectively 

to tone down the overpowering 

effect of light. 

There are also the ingredients 

which luxury car owners would 

expect even from an SUV. The 

UX is chock full of the latest 

technology for safety, comfort 

and convenience, and its styling 

and design inside and out is eyecatching 

and desirable. All of the 

ingredients are in place to make 

the UX very much a part of the 

• Price – Lexus UX 250h 

F-Sport, $72,900 

• Dimensions – Length, 

4495mm; width, 1840mm; 

height, 1520mm 

• Configuration – Fourcylinder, 

front-wheel-drive, 

1987cc, 135kW, 188Nm, 

continuously variable 

automatic. 

• Performance – 

0-100km/h, 8.4sec 

• Fuel usage – 4.5l/100km 

Lexus family. 

Lexus claim the UX is the 

gateway model into the brand. I 

guess that’s a good call, however, 

the company will have to market 

that hard, Toyota have just 

launched an amazing new RAV4, 

and some models have similar 

drivelines to the UX. While it’s nice 

to step up into Lexus luxury, some 

buyers may well be happy with the 

cheaper option. 

Wherever the UX goes in 

terms of sales, it is just part of 

a spectacular range of Lexus 

models. 

Personally, I’d still be sticking 

to one of the sport sedans or 

coupes from the stable, but for 

those who do need or want an 

SUV, the UX will certainly be 

a purchase which will keep the 

buyer happy for many years, and 

it will definitely put a smile on 

their face every time they see 

the savings hybrids offer when it 

comes to fill-up time at the local 

service station.

THE PAPANUI-I nes 

Community Board has taken the 

rare step of starting a petition 

to figh the city council over 

funding. 

Signatures are being co lected 

in a bid to get funding for a community 

facility in Shirley. 

It comes after the city council 

removed funding for the centre 

pla ned for Shirley Rd, near the 

intersection with Hi ls Rd. This 

was the site of the former community 

centre, which was badly 

damaged in the February 2, 

20 1, earthquake. 

The removal o funding 

prompted community board 

chairwoman Ali Jones to threaten 

to stand down, citing it as her “die 

in the ditch” project. 

Ms Jone said the board’s role 

is to represen the community, 

and by gathering signatures from 

residents, it was fulfi ling that 

role. 

“One of the roles of a community 

board is to represent and act 

as advocate for the interests of its 

community and this is what we 

are doing. The LTP and a nual 

plans are a l about lo bying the

THE OWNERS of Sumner’s Cave 

Rock Apartments ar expecting the 

Earthquake Commi sion to sign-off 

on a se tlement agr emen this w ek. 

Body corporate chairman Mike 

White said the group had gone 

into mediation with IAG and EQC 

on February 20, and signed off 

on a deal with IAG on February 

2 – coincidenta ly seven years 

to the day after the February 2, 

20 1, earthquake. However, they 

are waiting for EQC to sign the 

agr ement. 

“Given that EQC actua ly drafted 

the agr ement, there’ l be no 

problem with them doing that.” 

The apartment suffered damage 

in the February and June, 20 1, 

earthquakes and were demolished in 

late 2012. In 2016, IAG’s offer of the 

difference betw en indemnity value, 

$10 mi lion, and the sum insured, 

$16 mi lion, was rejected by the body 

corporate. 

The mediation agr ement 

prevented Mr White from disclosing 

the se tlement amount, but he said it 

involved the two parties paying “a bit 

more money than they’d wanted to 

earlier.”
